    Ok, there are lots of 'thumbs down' no doubt from people who are professionals or perfectionists. This was a simple repair job that came out very well. Anyone with a bit of craft experience could take this sort of repair on. If you took that to a pro body shop they would charge a lot of money. I think it was a good video and he explained what he was doing well.

    • @snivvelslurderagementai2560
      @snivvelslurderagementai2560 2 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      for sure. and not all body shop "professionals" do a good job either.
      I've had paint flake off and panels rusting months after work in body shops covered by insurance. after they took large sums of money.
      I would prefer the work he did here than many body shops.
      i just did this job on my own bumper following this process and it turned out great. not perfect but great.

Bondo bumper filler is made for plastic only and to use on bumper only. Also to use adhesion promoter before putting on primer so the primer and the paint will stick to the bumper. What's your opinion. Great job. But confused.

      @rockefelleragent1357 5 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      It's very very hard and time consuming work especially the sanding / wet-sanding part. Spraying is fun but sanding isn't. I have done refinishing my front bumper (the entire bumper and requires removal) in the past and took me 2 months to sand the damn thing, before and after painting. Sanding time will take up 90% of the entire process. If you use professional tools such as sand grinder with various sizes cutting pads it can cut down man hours by 1/2 but still pain in the ass. If you use 2K clear coat then you don't have to wet-sand after clear coat because it does pretty good job laying the clear down nice and flat, but you gotta have skillful hands to do it right. If you use 1k lacquer clear coat man you are in for tough luck cause you have to sand it again and again and again till it gets smooth. And if the clear you put on is too thin then you'll lose all your clear from sanding so you have to apply plenty of clear so this problem can be prevented. Don't try to save a few bucks on clear coat by getting those cheap 1k clear stuff just go with the 2K clear and you'll save yourself a lot of work.

    I did a similar repair on my car and found that the hardest thing is to make a soft edge between the new and old base coat without noticing.
    You can also see the edge in this repair. At 8:13 he is pointing at the tape to make a soft edge and at 11:35 you can clearly see the edge. The edge will be even more noticeable in sunlight.

    • @uel202e0b
      @uel202e0b 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@rustycooper7684 I don't think it's a reflection. At 11:35 at the bottom, you can see a new shiny clear coat right next to an old beat-up clear coat where the tape was.
      The transition can be softened with buffing but at the right angle under the sunlight, the line is still noticeable. That is why you never repair the hood this way. You coat the entire hood. This car is probably no longer new, so such a repair makes sense.

    Will continue tomorrow with sanding and applying more body filler on the hole cause I don’t think 1 round is enough. But already, it looks like new!

    Would highly recommend getting a plastic piece from a junkyard and practicing on it first. I did the video thing above on my bumper and caused all kinds of problems (I mean me causing the problems from lack of experience). Then worked on my daughter's car bumper the following week and it came out great, similar to the video. Little things you learn of when to push the spray button on the can; to put on 2-3 very light coats first of any spray, let dry 5 minutes between each...then put on the heavier "wet" spray for the last coat. But not too much or it runs. Better I thought to let each "wet" coat dry overnight. Buy the higher cost sprays also, don't use anything cheap: another lesson I learned. I wrote down each step also then followed it. Rather enjoy doing this work now, did a friends 3 months later and he could not believe it was not done by a professional shop. Further note: I just used 180 grit and higher. 80 grit seemed to abrasive where I was fixing those scratches I caused with the 80 grit.
