Default Rebuilt Corners - example and what to look for

Posted By: Kevin Saucier

Just something quick to add. Here are a couple cards that have been prepped to have a corner rebuilt. Each are in the incipient stage:

This card has had a perfect corner added and joined, it is just waiting to have the joint line filled...then some more doctoring to finish the job. When completed the end will look normal but the filled line will show as being altered...but it will be difficult to tell if done well.



Another way to rebuild a corner is to notch and bevel a corner and completely rebuilt that corner with matching new stock...plus some more very advanced doctoring steps. A halogen light and black light will show the adhesive mixture added to the raw stock mixture.
