thorburn 120 Report post Posted March 28, 2012 (edited) scrape out all the gunk from inside your gaurds then beat on the lip with a rubber mallet. If you need the gaurds to be nearly flat use a roller. Heat it if you care about the paint inside your gaurds( I personally dont and just respray it) If your gaurds are full of bog things will get really funny which ever way you do it Edited March 28, 2012 by bbs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grande 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2012 www.guardworks.net Depending on how much you need to roll the guard will determine on weather or not you need to remove sealer from between skins. Whats the wheel and tyre fitment and what type of vehicle? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-130 Hercules 556 Report post Posted March 30, 2012 Don't roll your guards. BMW steel very hard, it will crack the paint. To do it properly would require a thorough paint job afterwards. My 2¢. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, the thicker panels make it easier, they take more of a beating, enough heat in the paint/panel will ensure that the paint wont crack 9 out of 10 times.
