Love your videos mate and this one was no exception. Just one small point. When you polished the bumper, compound and polish found its way into the parking sensors creating a white ring. From experience I know this is an awkward and time-consuming process to remove. To get around this, I bought a packet of round white stickers that are pretty much the exact size of parking sensors and now I apply these before I do any compounding or polishing of bumpers. After polishing, I just peel them off. Saves loads of time and hassle. Works for me!

Tbh mate the polishes we use just hit round that sensor with a pressure washer after and aslong as you don’t leave it a daft amount of time it’ll be straight off also this wasn’t my shop and he wouldn’t pay for anything like that lol 😂

Between you and Gunman,i have started spraying again...last time was decades ago with Acrylic lacquer.So far wing mirrors and 5 mag wheels. Turned out good. Just a few runs in the clear. Many thanks ,i have learned so much and am really enjoying it. I plan to do a full respray on both my BMW e36's . Plan to just do all repairs and finish in primer at home then hire a spray booth for the full respray. Thanks again Tony.

Hi Tony. I have been watching your channel with a great deal of interest. It is a goldmine of information and techniques. It takes a lot of time and effort to create and edit these videos so many thanks for your dedication. I have a very old Ford Prefect (1952). It is all original other it has been painted around forty years ago in cellulose. It’s not a very good job and there is shrinkage and some signs or reaction here and there. For the most part it is very straight though other than a few ripples on the bonnet. So I’m thinking of blocking the bonnet then high building it before blocking again. The rest of the car I will likely just block and key up before priming and painting. I want to prime the whole thing to minimise any reactions from what has gone before. I will be doing it panels off too due to space restrictions and because I want to treat areas for rust etc. Any advice would be very much appreciated and sorry for such a long winded question. Regards Kris

Hi Tony, loving the videos, regarding blending with the 2k fast thinners, can this process be used with straight 2k paint for say a Mercedes sprinter that does not have a clear coat. Also do you apply the fast 2k thinners when the clear coat is tacky or fully cured, thanks.
@TonysRefinishingTV4 жыл бұрын
ideally when the clear is wet or very near just layed down mate tbh i find as its still wetter so flows easier when adding the blending thinners over it, once its gone tacky its started to go hard therefore harder to blend in , it does work with 2k gloss yes but unless youve really polished the panel up before hand and got a great match itll show, so the way i do it is to use 2k and bland the colour like base then reclear over the panel to match it in seamlessly hope that helps fella

So are fade out thinners and standard thinners the same thing? I’ve never seen someone blend with standard thinners before.

Great video Tony as always, big fan. I tried many times blending the clear coat, did everything by the book and my blend always starts "ripping back" and you can see the blending zone no matter how much you polish the transition. Also tried fine P3000 sanding and it starts tearing back right away. Could you give me any advice why this happens? Maybe low quality fade out thinner or are they all the same? Thanks.

The blend area isn’t keyed well enough mate that’s why

@@TonysRefinishingTV Thanks for reply, I prepare the blend area with P2000. Maybe it's not dry enough when I polish it, since I dont have a booth and I start sanding the next day.

If you listen to what I say in the video though usually I do not cut and polish the whole Bumper corner usually I will just nib and polish and just polish the blend on it’s Own , i included a polishing stage in this video as I said for the beginner and diy guys to see a Way they could do it to make it a more detailed video for people who may not be able to achieve the full finish from the gun

lesson two,never polish in the paint booth...thats how you contaminate the area.booth is for painting only..bodyshop safe polish?no such thing ...any polish will cause a fisheye if you have dust from it in the booth,i would fire you for polishing inside the booth.that defeats the purpose of having a paint booth
@TonysRefinishingTV5 жыл бұрын
ok i agree partly with the comment yes the booth is supposed to be just for paint i agree however in many shops and alot ive worked in sometimes needs must , time is tight and so is space, however ive never had an issue with fish eyes in the booth , im my own personal shop that i have now we often polish jobs in the booth before demasking to reduce mess on the car , compound in door jams ect and benefit from the better lighting in the booth whilst doing it ands have no issues with this causing fish eyes or anything else as we have great housekeeping as far as the booth goes
