Lead Wiping After Removing Rain Gutters On A 1971 Volkswagen Beetle

Some footage of the now-rare artform that is lead wiping. This was done at the workshop that is restoring my 1971 VW Beetle (Superbug). They removed the rain gutters at my request and after welding, they recommended lead wiping as a way to completely hide where the rain gutter was, smoothing the curve of the roof all the way to the edge.

So rather than be reminded that something used to be there, it will blend perfectly with the shape of the roof.
