When I burn the clear, I put reducer in the clear. So the clear on the edges melts in and I like to sand it with 1500 grit sand paper. Buff the panel, for a better result. I mask the bumper does not matter how small the spot job is.
Sound like a great repair everyone has a little bit different technique. Appreciate your comment!
Thanks a lot! I was fairly certain I knew how to do it, but I’m glad I watched this. I learned a couple of important steps. I’m grateful!
Great to hear!
VERY cool and simple instructions!! Thanks for posting!!!
Yes a big help for us DIY at home indeed cheers so much from Phil in Australia love the channel.
Awesome, thank you!
Glad I ran into this channel.. started my body tech journey in 2021 and I just got my first dealership job. Very helpful tips I’ll be using
Welcome, appreciate the comment and support brother!
Did you go to school?
Very helpful, thanks!
You're welcome!
it was very helpful, thanks for your time.
Glad it was helpful!
More great info! Thanks
You bet!
I sure did find it helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Good video. That's a cool way to fix it. Thanks for the tips
👍
Hey I used that UPOL blend #9 on the sail panel of my 1970 Charger RT as I did some body repair and then blend job on the upper sail panel of the car. I used some of this video as inspiration and partial guide when completing my repair. I had never done a blend job before but It worked out really nice! Thanks!
Very cool! Thanks for the comment!
Great video Chris. Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
These videos are brilliant 👍👍
Glad you like them!
This guys is amazing
Thank you! Appreciate the support!
Looks great
Thanks!
Great video Chris 👍
Thanks brother!
You my friend are what Ive been looking for , truly great work, i have the exact same issue but on my hood
👍
Great video Chris with some really helpful advice for us DIY painters, this type of repair won't last as long as a bumper off and a full repaint but they are a good alternative and as you said it will last a good while👏👍John UK
Thanks John, I'll be doing some more of these type of video's. They seem to be more helpful for beginners. Appreciate your comment and support!
That will be great Chris, I'll be looking forward to seeing them, I'm still going through all your back catalogue of videos, wow mate there is so much good info there👌👍
Oh yeah 👊🏻👍🏻
👍
That was nice

I’ve used the Spray Max Glamour 2K clear in a pinch a few times. You can swipe nozzles off of lots of other spray cans and see what works for a different spray pattern. I’ve found some narrow “bird shot”, and I’ve found the wide “shotgun spray” and that is key. But that Spray Max has serious longevity. I did my drivers side quarter panel, and it has withstood the gas spill test, sunshine test, the lot. Passes with flying colors. And it is hard. Not an easy scratch. The only problem is that while it last out glossy as can be and you can watch it melt into the previous stoke or coat, when it dries it’s gonna have some orange peel. Just spray several coats. I keep one of those infrared heaters about two feet away from the panel just as it’s finishing flashing off. Also a key factor. It also helps reduce orange peel. But it cuts out fine. For what it is, it’s incredible. You just can’t really prevent the orange peel.
This looks perfect to me! Can't see any defects / issues!
👍
Customer got some free overspray. Im sure they appreciated it
👍
Do u have any vids on painting rims?
Wow nice thanks cris
👍
Great video Chris!. Thanks.
Question regarding the settings.
What is general rule of adjusting these small touchup guns? What pressure should we keep for base and clear ? 20-30 or 10-15 ? How much fluid ? 1-2 turns out ? What typical distance -? Thanks 😊
Seriously I realy couldn't tell you. I go by the sound and I apologize I should have put it in the video. I will say for this touch up as low as you can get the psi and still get good paint atomization. I'll revisit this in another video. Appreciate your question.
@@GarageNoise thank you!). Since i am kinda new and just learning your video helping understand more how to fix issues i am running into during a painting. Lol i put on my touch up gun 30, then 25, then 20. After 5th time start using around 15. (Touchup gun from HF, silver one. Looks like a normal hvlp just smaller ) , next time will try 10 🤷🏻♂️ . Also, i noticed all my touchup guns (2from HF) and One R100 dont open wide fan. (Small but wide). They are more like from rattle can
How much time do you wait to spray on the blende and also time for polishing ? Steve
Do I need to use the blend if I’m polishing ?
Not bad mate, To get a good blend takes time etc. and a good blender...I have tried many over the years. The best is De Beer s in a can.. Cheers
👍
What you gonna do if the edges wrinkle up on ya 🤔 nice Chris👍
Paint the whole bumper🤣
This is awesome as shit. I'm about to do this on my beater car so it doesn't look like ass but also doesn't cost me a mint.
Sorry may be a silly question, is hobby airbrush possible to be used on this spot repair? What make me think using airbrush is hobby airbrush will spray more fine and suitable this area?
Yes, that will work great. I find it's almost to fine for a spot this big but on small scatches they work great.
I used DA one day and burned thru clear coat (just a thin layer). Now it looks like I have a slightly of color dot on my paint that you can only see during a sunshine. What can you suggest? I’m also from Oklahoma
Needs clear coat. Scuff panel with grey scotchbrite, clear coat whole panel
That bumper needed a full respray but guess the owner only wanted to pay so much.i can understand that it was the daily drive car seen many miles on the road.Im sure if it was a new car hole bumper would have been done still a good job for what u needed to do in the end will only last so long.Great clip.
Yeah, it needed a respray. He asked me to brush touch it. He's a valued customer so I figured I'd do a video on a smart blend since I never have to opertunity to do them.
@@GarageNoise love your work it helps us DIY so much I'm in Australia Name is Phil help so much cheers these videos are great and the work u put into it thank you so much.
Can you do a full fender spray with that detail gun?
You could ,might be kinda slow but you could get it done
@@GarageNoise would you be able to do a video of how to set up this spray gun? I used it for clear coat (Speedokote 2k clear), but it came out very dry or orange peeled.
What makes Finish 1 710 and 720. 710 being spot panel and 720 overall different? Can you use them interchangeably?
From my experience the overall is a bit slower drying which makes sense since it's for an overall paint job. I wouldn't use them together unless you speak with a SW paint rep they my have more detailed information.
@@GarageNoise I’m trying to reduce my inventory of products so I’ll stick with 710 after I finish using up 720. Thanks for the reply. I really enjoy your posts. Hope you had a good vacation!
@frankmaceyka4895 Thanks, brother ! Appreciate your support
I have a question when I spray the blend on how long do iI have to wait to buff it?
I'll typically buff the next day
Chris can you please help me I have a ford focus mk3 titanium x iam putting a new bumper on the front comes already primed and I have primed the bonnet or hood as you say can I put one coat off base coat paint on and then another coat and a blend over the top and another coat of base coat paint and clear coat paint and the same Chris with the bumper so its matches the car somebody said just base coat it and then clear coat it
Sand smooth with 600, base coat until covered, then 2 coats of clear 10-15 minutes between coats.
@@GarageNoise cheers 🍻 Chris
So basically to make it look proper, full coat of clear ? Where does blend spray really come to proper uses ?
Short answer is never, it's not really the proper way to do it. The only time I might do it is down low on a rocker panel.
Are you trying to limit the new clear to just the area that you hit with 2000 grit? I assume you don’t want to hit any area you did not sand right?
Absolutely, yes
Good video Chris. I might be answering my own question here. I have an 29 year old Toy Truck and the paint/clear has deteriorated on the roof and hood. I want to paint both panels for now to clean up the truck. On the roof the paint is rough in a 12" patch but ok going down the sides. It seems I can use this blend technique with 2000 grit then polish with the existing paint that is in decent shape. Is this correct? Thanks
I really think on a roof you'd be better off paint and blending the spot but clearing the roof completely. It wouldn't make sense to blend like this. I not really that much more work or materials and then it would last and look better than a blend.
@@GarageNoise Thank you for the advise!! Have a nice weekend.
The over spray it real
Yup
How many pounds of pressure on the gun?
I can't recall, but you don't need much , I think about 10-15psi
Can you buff the same day
If you can let it sit ovenight , but I did buff this the same day usually after about 4 hour
@@GarageNoise ok cool thanks
Do reducer work on the melt in?
Yes
@@GarageNoise thanks 👍🏾
HOW LONG DO I WAIT TO SPRAY IT FOR THE BLEND
@@BLACKRAIN390 you can wash it in immediately after clearing
@@GarageNoise Kool👍🏾
I never used a gun that small
I would have expected overspray to be everywhere
👍
That's a side chic repair...😵🤯😂😂
😅
Well of course it is. Now hush!
jesus that's shocking DO NOT DO THIS! Atleast mask it out 🤦♂️
this is how not to do it
You should be ashamed of yourself.
🤣
Honestly, this was painful.
In what regard?
🤔
In any regard this is a dumb comment. He clearly stated he this was free fix to get rid of an eyesore, which he obviously did, without respraying the whole bumper cover.
There’s down and dirty and then there’s down and diiiiiirty. BUT, it CAN be done.
I've been looking for a good diy spot fix. I have a few small circular spots on the roof and hood, I don't feel like repainting the whole top for a few small spots.
Not very well done. So many things done incorrectly.
Did you watch the video? I think I mentioned that in the video. This is not the correct way to do a proper repair.
You my friend are what Ive been looking for , truly great work, i have the exact same issue but on my hood
Awesome! Happy it helped!
