I need to roll my fenders, rear wheels are rubbing slightly.

I live in Boise, Idaho and I am having a tough time finding any shops who do it.

I decided to rent the eastwood tool from Ebay, while searching DIYs on YouTube, I came accross other methods such as telephone directory, pipe and so on.

I do not wish to damage my paint and,

I am looking for your experience with these methods and thereby select the best path possible.

Thanks in advance

 

Eastwood tool

 

This. And a heating gun.

 

Thanks guys, any idea about what temperature to heat the fenders upto?

Any other tips for a first timer?

 

Heat the **** out of it... and go very slowly. Good luck. Post your results!

 

Be careful with the heat. Just feel it with your hand a bit. Key is patience. I used heat gun and baseball bat. I went very patiently from end to end several times. Is has been about 2 years now without any sort of problem. Paint is still solid. Whatever method you use, the key is patience and the right level of heat

 

good heat. almost to where you cant touch but not discoloring / burning the paint. got a little impatient with last two fenders and had a couple spider cracks and little chip off the last one. so as others mentioned. take your time and be patient. good to get a buddy to heat a 1/3 section of the arch ahead of you to help the time.

 

I've done 16 cars. The key is keeping the paint hot and keeping the roller moving to make it even. Take your time. It takes a few hours to do a car right your first few times.

 

Thanks for your responses guys, I will be renting the tool shortly and I will try to post pics.

The rubbing so far is minimal and i can hear it happen when I take the corners like a gentleman
