I watched at least 10 videos about spot repair, refinish. This is by FAR the best and most complete video with no wasted time on 'small talk'. Excellent 2 part series. Thank you Tony!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Wow, thanks mate and glad its helped

[@rcarioca]

@@TonysRefinishingTV yep.. looking at other videos I always ended up with some questions and doubts. This one is the best.

[@mattslater2165]

By far the best, easiest to understand how-to video on blending clear. I usually paint entire panels but I've got a smart repair to do on a Peugeot 206 cc next week and I was a bit worried about the blending part of the job. Not any more!!!!!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

+Matty Detailer thanks Matt great to hear feedback like that and glad it's helped buddy

[@TheOldPCTech]

Great couple of videos ! I haven't done any painting in more than 30 years, but this has inspired me to pick up my gun and tackle a couple of little dings to my son's truck, and daughter in law's car.

[@OakleyJRVinkle]

AMAZING !! EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FOR MONTHE NOW . I GOTTA DO A LITTLE REPAIR ON MY DAUGHTERS JEEP . WELL MORE THAN ONE DENT SEEMS SHE CANT NAVIGATE THE GARAGE . I KNOW I CAN DO THIS NOW !! IM RETIRED AND GOT THE BRIGHT IDEA TO DO A LITTLE BODY WORK . ALMOST GAVE UP BUT IM GETTING BETTER EVERYDAY . NOW THAT I SEE YOU DO THIS IN AGARAQGE JUST LIKE MINE IM SET TO GO AND CONFIDENT THANX TONY !!

[@chrislangdell117]

Great information. As far as what I would like too see is the trim removal for paint prep removal and instalation of trim door sill guards. The plastic guards being removed from say the top of an SUV. Window felt and window sweeps weather stripping all the little things you need to remove and reinstall on a car new and old before you paint and then when putting it all back together. It may take a while to compile several cars on one video or two but it would be the most desired thing I would want to see

[@sonnykamara3234]

Thank you very much Tony. I've been watching many videos online on paint blending, and can categorically say that, yours is straight forward, more clinical and finally, simply the best for you've really taught me what I needed to know with blending the new to the old. Once again, I thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.. I'm gonna get the heat lamp.

[@stevenbyrd4310]

Thanks for your time and effort painting for me is a hobby something I enjoy doing in my spare time I've learned a lot from you the gunman and motivated painters I'm actually a skilled Mason Repair Mason with 45 years experience this is giving me some motivation to make a videos to help people do jobs such as building a brick mailbox thanks for your vids.

[@ukstuartpatterson]

Great content. For years I've done repairs using rattle cans. I do have a can of fade out but never used it.... I'll use it now :) I'm on the cusp of buying spray gear to get a better finish - I think I get about 80% of what a pro can do. Interesting that you flat off into old clearcoat and then mask off. My bodge way was to keep repair small and then prep in the same way - but base/colour coat I would spray out and have dry edges (not using masking) and then hit that with worn out 2000 grit to remove the rough surface and feather the edges of the base towards the prepped clear area. Then I'd stick clear coat on...again not using fade out - I'd feather the clear coat into old clear coat. Overspray I'd keep down by masking off adjacent areas. To get the finish I'd use 2000 or 3000 grit by hand (I don't have a DA) and then blend it all together with G3 and G10 and final autoglym. Everyone probably thinking "oooohhhhh ouch ooohhh noooooo" it's all self taught and learned by mistake. It's only this last month I've started looking online for tips. So thank you :)

Great video, the best detailed video I have seen. The problem here is how to get exact match colours on 7 years old car. Even colour from manufacturer may vary a little

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

That’s an issue wether it’s a brand new car or an older car tbh it’ll depend on how good the suppliers are at colour matching and or yourself

[@chuckthomas1913]

I've watched this video many times and never really caught that neat Sealey 3" polisher there. The same very tool is also available as an excenter-sander with 2.5mm hub, which is what i'm using for a while now -it's awesome! So i just checked the internet for the polisher now and found it for £32 incl. shipping. Bargain alert, bought one right away!! I hope it's as good as the excenter version. THANKS :)

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

+Chuck Thomas lol it's a good little polisher mate bit loud but does the job great for the money I've had mine a year or two now and works a treat still

[@chuckthomas1913]

Mine arrived some days ago and turning it with that little wrench on the collet, i noticed that on a full turn it had some very rough spots. I took it apart and found the planet gears totally dry. I added some thick bicycle chain lube to the gears and it runs great now, but caution: excess oil blows out from the collet on first use! All the internal components show surprisingly good machining and overall quality, they don't give the impression of the usual cheap chinaware (except for the chinese bearings of course), so i guess the tool will last me a long time! An important note from the manual that i'd like to leave here: "4.3. Press trigger to start the polisher, release trigger to stop" There you go :)

[@barrygallagher9818]

Hi Tony, great to see you back on the Tube with your excellent and informative videos. I especially liked the Ford Anglia series as I'm helping my mate restore his MG Midget using direct gloss and until now hadn't seen any footage regarding flatting and polishing that type of paint. So thanks for that. I'm not a painter by trade but do lots of accident damaged trucks and vans at work in poor conditions my biggest enemy is dust! Keep up the good work mate your videos are brilliant!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

best thing mate is just wet your floor and walls down , i also find a touch of soap (tfr or washing up liquid) helps keep it wetter longer, and great to be back mate trying to get the videos better

[@100SteveB]

Great video Tony, really good to learn stuff like this. One basic video i would like to see one day is a small tutorial on how to set your gun up. That is something i struggle with all the time. I always end up with a very large amount of orange peel. I get around it with a lot of flat and polishing (which i learnt from one of your fantastic videos), but i really would love to learn how to avoid excess orange peel in the first place. I get so frustrated after spending so long on the repair and prep, only to see the paint go wrong.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

hi Steve firstly thanks for watching and the comments on the videos its great to see people get something from all the hard work we put into this channel, can you tell me if you use HS or MS clearcoat and also roughly the type of gun you use so i can try and get things in to make this video to help you out , excellent idea for a video too

[@100SteveB]

Hi Tony, thanks for the rep[y, i use MS clearcoat (colomix anti-scratch) and the guns i use are the DeVilbiss FLG-G5 and the A.N.I - R150 mini gun, both with a 1.2 nozzle. I set the air between 20 - 25psi. At the moment i only have a cheap pressure regulator on the guns, i am wondering if that might be partly responsible. A video would be great at some point in the future, just something that explains what effect things like air pressure, fluid adjustment etc will have. Many thanks once again.

[@bazerk856]

Great vid. Watch and learn as the saying goes .I've watched this and feel that I've learnt a lot. Looking forward to trying this out on my prius. Only trouble is I will have to use rattle cans. Just wondering how I can blend the clear coat using the cans.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

gary collings you can buy fade out thinner in an aerosol too buddy that would work for you will be hard with cans though mate I won’t lie

[@joelucky3570]

Hi Thanks for this vid from which I have learned a lot. A few points I want to raise. You don't comment on what you are actually doing at every step. You talk about something else. You don't show CLEARLY up to where you are sanding with which grit paper and up to where you are sanding with a different grit. Sometimes we are under that you are wet sanding but we are not too sure. I think you should show in more close up detail how you are folding the masking tape and how you are putting another one on top of it. I have watched you video 5 times to understand and I still am not too sure that I have got it in but I will give it a try. Anyway thanks again

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Hi joe these videos are very hard to shoot to include ever detail in as much detail as your are asking above and tbh most people say the opposite about this video that it has helped them a lot rather than a lot of Criticism about the methods , filming or how it’s shown , we do our best for people to show as much as we can but if we were to show every single step in every single detail then the videos would be hours or a day long which just isn’t an option

[@isellcatlitter]

[@Comestomind]

Nice work Tony

[@alexmessina3383]

Tony what I'd love to see more of, and what is really lacking online, is to do all these processes using 1K acrylic lacquer color and clear. ... I use 1k lacquer at home because it is much easier and less toxic to manage in a home environment. However, it does behave differently to 2K paints. For example, I always use much finer papers that are generally recommended with 2K so when you use 3000 grit, that's right up my alley. Also, I allow plenty of time (weeks) for all solvents to evaporate before sanding and flattening any orange peel. Beyond that I find blending is a more delicate process and products like 1k blend thinners and hard to find it seems. Finally blend sanding can be tricky with acrylic lacquer clear coat. If you don't wait long enough for it dry completely, you can easily peel back the clear coat edges and not matter how much you sand and how fine you go it just keeps peeling back. You end up clearing the whole panel. I'm no expert and the techniques and using the techniques with acrylic lacquer 1k products so i'm very keen to see much more ... I know it's considered an inferior paint and clear, but you have to do what suits your painting environment best. Anyhow, be great if you could do some of this.

Amazing. My car was painted last week. Now the front bumper has some issues. Took it to another shop. They said they have to paint the entire bumper. I know some people can do spot repairs. I need to find one who can do this kind of work. I don't have the time to do it.

[@Matan2222222]

Very nice video! Can I get to a quality finish that lasts long by using spray cans without a heat lamp?

[@peteohead]

This was a super clear video, thanks for making it! Just 2 questions based on attempting a small repair on a 25 year old Mk1 MX5 with single stage paint. I plan to use a 2k single stage rattle can. Could I still use fade out thinners in an airbrush on single stage paint? Secondly, any tips on how to find a rattle can that would match the classic red paint? Would it need to be custom mixed having been analysed? Thanks in advance, and sorry for the questions on an old video.

Tony great job. A question on the first video you said you would take the tape off once your spraying lacquer. You sprayed the clear with the tape on then you took it off, which is fine but I didn’t notice you cleaning the surface were you took the tape off as I would of been concern about the sticky residue left on there. Then realized you went straight over it with the clear. Amazing...but is this correct.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

ive just had to re watch this to answer this lol, so ive taken the outside tape off that we blended the clear up to and then added the fade out thinner over the area the first tape came off from, unless youve had the tape on for a very long time and or its got cold and damp then proper masking tape wont leave any residue on the panel buddy, hope this helps

[@richardlongmore9301]

Great job fella. So interesting. Im having to refresh myself on this for a new job Im starting. Thank you so much. I have a question about fadeout thinners. And another way I have seen it used if you sprayed the fadeout area to soften the old paint first then started to do your lacquer only bringing your second Cote up to your pre softened fade out area. Would it melt the new and old paint better rather than just spraying fade out over your finished blend to melt the blend edge on just the outside? . My problem is the paint I’m blending onto is a bit old and oxidized and I’m worried that when I start polishing It might start tearing back. Has happened to me before even when I have keyed it with 1500. Or dose the lacquer freak out if you spray it on top of a area that has been softened with fade out. Thanks again

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Personally mate I wouldn’t be doing it that way round mate by spraying it first kinda like a disaster waiting to happen tbh

That seems like a pretty big area to sand, fill, paint etc, for what was such a small dent, is it really necessary to take it to such a large area. I have a small paint chip on my fender, (about 1cm square) where only the clear coat has been damaged, there is no metal showing through and I want to repair it, do I need to take it to such a large area and do I need to fill it (or jsut sand it down to level) and then add a few coats of colour match paint and then spray on a top coat?
