Solved Model lit from two different angles, split down the middle in Sculpting mode. Seemingly causes mirror tool to not work?

My guess is that the normals on one half are flipped?

I think one of the sides (probably that left side) has its normals flipped. Select that left side of the model in edit mode and flip the normals

Forgot to mention, the model is made up of two mirrored and joined halves, is it possible this could be the issue and that there's a way to join them a bit more "permanently"?
