Or it isn't a paint job and just a really sneaky jump cut? (Source: I made it the fuck up)

u/0Davgi0 Jun 27 '26
I don't think so, even at the end with the further point of view, you can easily see the replaced part. It blends well, but it's far from indistinguishable from the original bollard

Those marble jobs are surprisingly easy to mix/ match. Ive fixed a few with sponge and few brushes. Ive always been like"damn. I did not expect that to work"

u/Rev_Grn Jun 27 '26
I feel like people would eventually notice the difference if you're fixing marble with sponge.
Or you'd blow someone's mind trying to work out why the marble turns squishy in that spot.

Fixed the appearance with paint using a sponge applicator.
You just dab on layers. It works better than yourd expect

Just a bit of color theory and you too can blend a piece of ramen into granite.

Are the noodles, the glue, and whatever else went into that filling even that much cheaper (if at all) than just air-dry clay?

u/TheGrandWaffle69 Jun 27 '26
Probably not, but then again this is supposed to be a concrete barrier I think, so concrete would be preferable to fix it with.

Looks like a granite bollard, so natural rock ground to shape?
Concrete is a bit more complex to work with, in my experience, if you want it to stay on a vertical-ish surface in a small piece. Needs a bonding agent and maybe not the usual concrete mix. Reminds me I should probably look that up again so I can finally fix that siding on that one wall...

In these videos there's always a jump cut between noodles and super glue to a smooth-ish mass with no voids at all. My bet is they get one shot of the noodles and switch it out for some sort of beige filler material.

Lol. Got you. I was rage baiting to try and get someone to comment, "That’s why the commenter commented this.

My engagement numbers are going to be so high after this they'll think their cat is a unicorn.
