Many bumper covers have built-in stress areas that typically break in the same area and often break without much force. Preparing it incorrectly could result in the bumper breaking again just when reinstalling the bumper on the car.
This Honda bumper cover is a good example. Any bending of the bumper is concentrated in this small area. We will repair this bumper cover with our nitrogen plastic welder.
