When sectioning a panel, the refinish time for the entire service part may automatically adjust to refinish the section portion only. If the entire panel requires refinishing, a manual entry adjustment would be applied.

“After review, the estimated refinish time of 1.2 hours applied to the Front Lower Wheel Arch sectioning operation is appropriate. If the entire quarter panel is being refinish a manual entry will have to be applied to the estimate.”
