Heads up: My home garage lighting project threw off a whole quarter panel repair

Heads up is right. Garage lighting is brutal for showing every single flaw. I put in some bright LEDs last year and suddenly my "decent" paint job on the old truck looked like a toddler did the bodywork. You don't realize how much bad lighting hides until you fix the lights. It's like getting glasses for the first time and seeing all the dirt you missed. Now I check any repair work under the shop lights before I even call it done.

Yeah like you said about the shop lights, but then I take stuff outside and the sun finds even more problems the LEDs missed. It's like you can't win sometimes.

I read that the sun is the ultimate quality control check.
