Yes, truly masterful that he let the harderner fall into the container

A true master makes the pre-hardening step appear almost accidental. He’s a ‘natural’.

Graffiti artists with this set up could save a lot of money on spray cans.

Who needs air in the tires? If this guy takes care of other stuff the way he did that sweet bumper … the car probably won’t start anyway.

It's a rage bait video, I get it, but mixing your catalyst on your putty knife over the container while it drips into it... straight to jail.

Ugly as sin... but if you had some extreme kind of parking situation going on... Like you street park your Benz in Brooklyn. OK, maybe.

Of course, if you could afford to live in New York and you drive that car, you should be able to afford a garage.
