So I ordered 2 fenders and a hood. Color is Toyota black. Parts come primed supposedly. So scuff, 2 base coats, and 2 or 3 clear coats? Paint I ordered from Sherman Williams auto comes with a reducer for the base, and a hardener or Catylist for the clear coat.. that sound right? I don’t know about the bulldog, can I skip that? I also have a new paint gun, and filter, but a normal 3gal nail gun compressor... do you or should you scuff the first base coat with like a 600?
Great Information! I really appreciate these videos. Are there any extra steps / chemicals needed for bumper covers ? Also, do you have a video for a panel repair, using filler? Is there any certain brand of fillers that you suggest ?
OMG. This is what I Was Wondering and Looking for, I thought when the New Aftermarket Part says Primed, That Means its Ready To Be Painted? I Was gonna do just that.. But I Guess not.. Why does it say Primed then?
Question: I am painting in my garage and I’m a little concerned about overspray getting all over things in my garage like my tool box and other things. Do I need to cover every single thing up with a tarp? Or by painting up close, is it necessary? I noticed that vehicle in the back ground, and you don’t seem too worried about it and the other things in your shop. I’m very inexperienced. Thanks
Yes, you do have to worry about overspray cover anything your concerned about. Especially clearcoat it will stick to things in your garage and be hard to remove.
wear gloves if at all possible as when you touch the panel while using prepsol, you can leave a greasy fingerprint that the primer may not stick to, even if you have wax and grease remover on your hands. great video though.
Excellent Video! To The Point! No BS! Perfect for Me! The Type A Person! Thanks!
Exactly what I’m doing and needed. Thanks

You got everything right you can skip bulldog only need it for plastic bumpers. Don't sand paint in between coats
How long after paint coats do you wait to tack cloth it?
Until the paint is dry at least 10 minutes maybe 15
Is the procedure the same for single stage acrylic enamel?
What brand of basecoat and clearcoat do you recommend?
Thank you
What size air compressor are you using for this video?
Thank you for not being a rattle can video

Yes , there is nothing to difficult tho. I have many videos on bumper repair and painting and repairing dents with filler.
Can you make a video doing an aftermarket tailgait?
Off topic but wondering if you have a favorite sandpaper , not as in grits but brand and line of paper ? Thanks.
Hands down best sandpaper and best value is the 3m cubitron xtract here's a link you can check it out. amzn.to/3VsZXOL
Hi, are there special paper towels for this purpose? If so I’m having a hard time finding them
Many thanks
Just lint free, micro fiber towels are lint free
Is that a steel fender ?

If a primer coat is applied prior to color coat do you recommend epoxy?
No not necessary. Appreciate the comment brother!
