Bare Metal Re-Spray on A Classic Mini - PT2 - BODYWORK AND FILLER / BONDO WORK

[@slartybartfarst9737]

I'd describe myself as a budding painter over 40 years of motorbikes and a few cars. Any opportunities I've had to watch true Craftsmen at work I've seized. Just happened on your channel and it's so informative and I must say therapeutic to watch the paint go on. My kids always wanted to help and guess what now they are grown up can all prep a surface and wield a rattle can! You should be proud of your little girl getting stuck in and seriously it's just part of developing practical skill sets for life. Brilliant explanation of blocking in and Abronet I will be getting. Thank you have great Christmas.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Hey buddy firstly Thankyou for the kind words above fella and I hope you and your family have a great xmas , and it was a very proud dad day that day she always loves to come in and help on hits but she’s finally hog enough to start on different things and loves it too

[@pedromiguelareias]

A lot of man-hours, products, energy, expertise and dedication are required for a good job. A lot of people think that painting a car or a motorcycle is just spraying with some color in a can and that's it. Around here, if you try to explain what's involved, you get labelled a thief, so this channel, with comprehensive explanations is very important.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thankyou Pedro my own customers often watch these and it gives them a huge insight to what’s involved step by step

[@StevesConsul]

I always learn something when I watch your videos, this mini respray is so useful for me because I intend to do a bare metal respray on my car. Nice to see you let your daughter help, its good to pass your skills down to the next generation.

[@satamanschmidt3428]

Tony, have you ever tried a Hutchins 800 orbital file sander. It's not like the Hutchins Hustler which is straight line and primarily suited to filler work but is orbital. It can make short work of blocking as it is more or less an air powered block. I have one and would be willing to send it to you except for the fact that shipping it to England would probably cost over $100. If you can get your hands on one to try out I recommend you do so. It can save a ton of time

Great Instruction video as Im just starting my bare shell many thanks

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

No problem hope you enjoy the series buddy

[@oikkuoek]

I first heard you'd use 80 grid, and thought "Now, here's a dude who knows how to sand!" but then realized it was 180 grid.. I'd use 120 grid in that stage. Heavier dust, less strokes and less heat warpage in the metal. Also would apply the paste layer throughout the side in one go, then block it down with the doors attached to make the side true. The high fill primer fills the 120 grid easily, and the 120 grid creates more texture for the primer to hold on to.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

We’re blocking by hand there won’t be any heat warp and it’s not a concourse job as I said so there’s no need for a full skim over the whole car as you say above , also p180 would be the lowest to prime over p120 it’ll sink back into

[@stusoldcars4248]

Hi. Great series of videos. Just one question and thats do you need to sand the guide coat in the low spots before filling.

[@Ajojets]

All the very best.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

You too Andy Thankyou

[@JohnWD40TC02]

Fantastic Christmas eve video Tony and as always the live chat was great and a good laugh, I keep trying different makes of sanding discs and strips but always seem to come back to Mirka, they may not last as long as some but the extraction from them is imo the best. I know that hand blocking is the best way to get the panel really nice and flat but I find it hurts my arms so have to settle with using my Deos for blocking then the Deros for DA work to avoid as much hand sanding as I can. Just like to say a huge thanks to you mate for all the vids you do and all the help you have given me personally over the past couple of years to sort out the problems I had, at least I don't bother you as much these days on FB messenger which is good news for you and means I'm doing ok, thanks Tony! 🤗🙏👍

Could we cut with 80 then 180 as did with the camper

There’s no need as there’s nothing to block back really there’s no okd paint and filler to clock over a bare metal paint so p180 is more than enough enough

Apart from when I was building body in white at Rolls Royce where the air was blue with welding fumes, I have been less than careful with masks and goggles etc. So its a case of don't do as I d, but as I say....

Another great video Tony. The Abranet sheets are the very best in my opinion, don't clog,can be quickly refreshed with a blast of air and last ages. Will definitely try the SP Epoxy when mine runs out. Can you reduce it so that it applies a very thin smooth coat when you are not bothered about build, typically for the rub-throughs?

You should try getting the dust extraction blocks for the abranet, as far as I know there’s at least 3 different sizes. Then just use a Henry hoover for the extraction. I think it actually keeps the abranet sharper for longer. Keep up the good work!
