Hot take: People are way too scared of blending on quarter panels

I see guys trying to spot repair a scratch and then clear coating the whole panel anyway. It's a waste of time and material. I matched a three-stage pearl on a Honda fender last month and blended it perfectly within 6 inches of the repair. Anyone else think blending gets a bad rap?

Blending is like the boogeyman of the paint shop. People act like it's some impossible dark art, but it's just paint. Maybe they're scared their prep work won't hold up to a close look.

Totally agree, it's not magic lol. Found that taking the time to feather the edges with a grey scotch pad made all the difference. Just gotta trust the process.
