Help please

Now no asking WHY I'd want to do it - but how can I deal with that burnt out area top right please? I have tried the obvious and it looks well obvious!




Many thanks

Mike

Try clone tool, and carefully clone on the lighter parts, by selecting the arch around the burn. If you clone in a C shape, you should be able to recreate the highlight without theburn. A bit of healing spot. and job done. I think.

Here's how it works, let me know what you think

I hope you don't mind but a little time with cloning and spot healing can be rewarding. Not quite perfect but i hope this helps.

That's better in both cases! - I'll have a pop again. Thanks

Why not just crop it out?

here's another fast way.
use the rectanular or circular selection tool. feather the edges.
copy a section of good area, and paste it into a new layer. grab that piece and move it over the area to be patched.
set blend mode to "Darken" set opacity to about 30%
done. operation time : 15 seconds.

Don - I will try that as it sounds and looks quick and effective.

Peter - tut you're nearly asking why I want to do it. I just want to know HOW to do it!

Thanks again guys

When you "repair" the specular highlight don't forget to do the same to its reflection in the headlamp chrome, otherwise it looks a little odd.

Looking at what's visible in said reflection I'm going to hazard a guess at a Ford Popular/Anglia?
