    This is the best video at explaining clear coat and blending. Thanks so much for posting this. I'm in the process of trying to fix chips in the paint on my 2013 Silverado. I guess Chevy has a problem with the base not adhering to the primer (bummer), and the shop wanted $3K to fix, which I don't have. I've done pretty well repairing the areas, but still need to clear, and that's been a little intimidating to be honest, but I think you've given me the courage to at least try....

    DAMN. My Man is a SAVAGE! Clearly a consumate professional. I greatly appreciate the way he explained all of his techniques and why he was working in a very specific way. My Man explained everything so well, that after I finished watching the tutorial, I felt I could go out and easily apply the same techniques! Which, of course, is the furthest thing from reality! But that is the sign of an excellent teacher and a master of a craft; being able to explain a complex subject simply, so that the students can easily understand. Amazing video! 👍💯

    I always wondered about blending. Most others just say they blended. I ran across another video and found out about blending spray. But this one was more DYI friendly.

    Thank you for taking the time to show and explain this 🤙
    back in the day I used to do everything almost exactly as you explained but did not know about a “blender” I basically color sanded and buffed that blend area & on dark colors there was always a faint halo or faint visible edge to me anyway that people basically dont notice but it always annoyed me as a painter, just knowing it’s there. Never tried this and I am about to and excited haha. Basically if I wanted it perfect to me I’d clear the entire panel. It’s amazing how the blender “melts” / blends the edge without dulling the new clear and making it seemless with the old clear. Saves so much time and material etc. I wish I knew this technique decades ago when I did it for a living. Man it puts a whole new perspective on spot repairs.. I’m gonna look to see if you have some tri stage blending vids. I have a couple of tri stage blending tasks awaiting on my project soon and being original paint etc want to keep the painted areas minimal. Luckily it’s pearl white so more forgiving than some other colors but I need it perfect for this project, can’t wait to try it , thanx again main! Liked and subscribed , you get straight to the point , explain and show thoroughly, awesome 🤙🤙

    Nice! You explained things that every other vid I've seen on this glosses over (see what I did there?)
    Like where to stop sanding, where to stop clear. I've seen the bridge. I've seen the blending techniques. But no one ever explained where to sand to vs where to mask. Always wondered, do I sand all way to masked area, then wet sand to bring in blended clear back to gloss? How do I make sure clear doesn't paint over unsanded areas? You covered all that.
    Then there is the blending product that melts and blends clear. Never even heard of that!

    I couldn't agere more with the previous post. I've been watching so many of these so-called smart repair videos because I'm in the middle of doing one. Finally, a "clear" (pun intended) explanation of where the sand ing ends, the grits, where the base ends, where the Clearcoat ends, & where to use the blender. I feel so much better now & ready to go! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you..... PS Seems to me that now the biggest hurdle is matching the base color. Does the color ususally match or do you have to make adjustments to the formula??

    • @J.Lulo_
      @J.Lulo_  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      First I want to say Thank you 🙏 for the kind words I really appreciate it. Second, before you start putting paint on a car you should always check to make sure you’re color matches the paint on the car. Once you know the color matches, when you blend your bumper it should blend seamlessly into the color on the car.

      I wouldn’t use blend spray for dry spot or orange peel but I have used it when I notice a dry spot somewhere on a panel after I finish and I just want to clear that spot. What I do is clear the dry spot that I noticed and then I spray the blend spray in that spot to avoid having to spray the whole panel or re-clear the whole paint job.

  • @marcuswhite1403

    Great video. Im still trying to get used to doing a clear blend. I have done a few that turned out well. I have a top part of a door that Im trying to blend. The portion where I stopped my clearcoat and burned the edges in looks good, but I'll do like you and spray a little blender a little further past my blend area. That won't look that good. Looks like it will fisheye and look dry. If i try to hand buff it, it starts to roll on me. Im not sure if my blender is bad or what, but it seems to dry and not completely dissolve.

    • @J.Lulo_
      @J.Lulo_  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks 🙏 for the kind words I appreciate it. Well make sure the area that you stop spraying your clear is sanded with at least a 1000 grit sand paper. You have to make sure your clear is blended right in the area where you finish sanding your blend area. Then right after your second coat of clear coat you apply your blender. P.S. Make sure you don’t base coat all the way to the edge of where you sanded for blend leave at least 12 inches between the base coat and the clear blend. And always make sure to keep your clear blend in the smallest area possible so it comes out smooth.

    Awesome video! Like earlier comments, I've also watched a bunch of these videos, and yours makes it easy to understand, so good job on that! I was under the impression that I needed to use blender on the base coat too, but I see you only use it on the clear. Would you use blender on the base coat if you were working with metallic paint?

    • @J.Lulo_
      @J.Lulo_  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I just found your channel and agree that this is the best explanation on clear blending, my only question would be about the buffing process on the blend area? I usually have to cut and buff because of dust, can the blend area be buffed also?

    • @J.Lulo_

    Good video! I've used all kinds of blenders the last 20 years but I just started using that axalta spray can a few months ago, turns out really nice seems to have more clear in it than most blenders but I seem to get quite a few runs when using it, I blend all panels on a vehicle, I noticed you waited a while before doing it, do you think I should let it set for a bit before laying down the blender? Thanks

    • @J.Lulo_
      @J.Lulo_  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks 🙏 for the kind words I appreciate it. And as far as the blender goes, if you’re getting run’s then you should probably wait like 2 to 3 minutes to spray it. And it just needs a light mist with 1 or 2 spritz of the spray and you should be good 👍.

    • @J.Lulo_
      @J.Lulo_  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you 🙏 for the kind words I appreciate it. And to answer your question, the bridge I created was with paper and tape and the purpose is to make sure you stop in the right place with the clear so the blend is nice and soft and melts into the rest of the panel. If you don’t want to create a bridge, what you want to do is keep the paper at least 20 inches away from the blend to avoid a hard clear line. Remember the blend has to be polished with compound once everything dries. Good luck 👍.
