Hi

In a paint repair instruction I read the following:

"It is best to apply putty two separate times, when applying putty to a
surface with a character (press line)."

What is *character (press line)*, can anybody explain?

TIA

Never heard of that term. Putty is usually applied with a flexible plastic
spatula.

If I should try to explain in English what I think it is,
I would say it means that the panel is not smooth but has a bend or small
edge or indentation pattern,
and that a "press line" is a edge ore more likely a groove formed by the
pressing tool during production, of for instacne a door. ????
