CAR PAINTING: BODYWORK, PREP, PAINT

[@PaintSociety]

This came out great. I like the idea of doing PDR first and not having to weld metal. This one came out really nice.

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Thank you! Much better than grinding and stud welding metal.

[@thistledewoutdoors3331]

Good info. I do 320 block followed by 400 on a DA with interface pad after that for primer surfacer... 600 at most for sealer & 800 for the blend area...... Paint these days are getting cheaper/ perform less & cost Twoce as much.... Just a gallon of cheap Omni 270 clear is what $130-$150 if youre a shop & 20%-30% higher for a walk in customer....

[@mariopaintclass6091]

I agree no need to go beyond 400 for primer. There’s still good paint out there.

[@thistledewoutdoors3331]

Good job back masking.. many people still dont do that but it really does provide a proper edge...

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Thanks!

Beautiful finish on the panel Mario the customer should be more than happy with that, as always you explain everything you are doing taking us through each step and it was great to see a more detailed tutorial on the masking stage as that is a skill all on it's own which you mentioned in the video, very enjoyable Mr Teacher👏🙏👍John UK

Nice tips man on the small masking tape on the door edge. Good job mario, the color is just spot on especially on this difficult silver color match.

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Thanks it actually wasn’t the perfect match it was light all I did was drop the pressure to get it darker.

[@ntonytay]

@@mariopaintclass6091 oh it really looks good on the video 😁. Another good tips dropping the pressure to become darker.

[@marcuswhite1403]

Ding Massager. I need that for my back 🤣. I use the foam tape also, but that stuff has skyrocketed like everything else.

[@marcuswhite1403]

I have the Tekna Clearcoat gun. I plan on trying the Tekna Primer and Base guns one day.

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Can’t go wrong

[@thistledewoutdoors3331]

I also start clearing down low just in case something gets funky...

MARIO I HAVE JUST PAINTED MY FORD FOCUS MK3 FRONT BUMPER ITS ON THE CAR BUT NEEDS A BLEND ON THE WINGS OR FENDER

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Okay cool. Just sure you blend the wings with the same mix of paint.

[@ANDY-we7mr]

​@@mariopaintclass6091 Mario I have had a look can k blend it another day or has it got to be done straight away andy have you got any blending videos mate on the wings or fenders the bonnet mate is the same as the bumper but slight different between the wings that's whyvi need a blend

[@mariopaintclass6091]

@@ANDY-we7mr it’s best to blend straight away especially if it’s metallic. Your pressure could change the shade or you might not have the same exact mixture.

Like 90 is the name of the company I’ll have some links in the description. There’s none on Amazon but I shared some alternative mats in the description.

What is the ballpark cost for this size of repair? Thx

[@mariopaintclass6091]

Where I am $600-1000 for the quarter panel and the bumper.

@@mariopaintclass6091 Okay, that gives me an idea for the front end on my Daytona Charger. I’d like to get bids on giving my front end a refresher. It has no bad dents or dings just the usual nicks and road rash from typical driving.
