[@jared4670]

Thank you. You have given me hope in repainting my car. As I know that the paint job won't be very great with rattle cans but it can at least be sorted out afterwards

[@8Cylindres]

I've painted my Silverado with rattle can (3$/can) and it look good tho, was afraid to do it but I will give it a try now too !!

[@RealTalkInAmerica]

Yeah, same here, I painted my Civic with Rustoleum rattle cans........at this moment I'm letting the clear coat dry so I can continue with it. I've seen so many great long lasting results from people using spray cans, as long as every step along the way is done correctly the results will be fine.

[@ralphruiters2475]

Result is great. Less great is that you use dirty polishing pads when buffing, at least it seems so. What about holograms after polishing. 95% you have to finish with a DA polisher to remove these fine scratches (they leave some clouds on the paint).

[@Harpreet13013]

So did you just sand and compound and polished or used clear coat as well ?

[@karolisrum6573]

If you have a DA machine you can also folow up with 4k and 6k sanding discs on it and polishing will be allot easier.

[@calebforester418]

I usually do 2,3,5 and finish with 8000 and makes life a whole lot easier for buffing.

[@stranger07.44]

@@calebforester418 not being a smart a** but you're spending way too much time & effort & that sounds like a lot of unnecessary clear is being removed. With the right compounds & buffers I never sand above 3000, a lot of times I dont even go that high. I use a 15mm throw DA with 5in disc. For heavy cut I would use 3M Perfect It #1 but it dusts way too much so I switched to V32 from Chemical Guys IF I need a super agressive cut. Just changing from heavy pad to orange or lighter will adjust to a med cut. Then I follow with "3D- ONE" on my Griots polisher (8mm throw) . The 3D-ONE is a hybrid compound that you can orange (or yellow) pad first then, use same compound on white or black pad & it finishes as a polish with a very nice shine. Most times the 3D-ONE with a yellow pad is more than enough for heavy/moderate correcting so I'll just go orange then white (All Hex Logic pads). U will save a lot of time & end up with the same quality finish . Hope that helps

[@thomas9434]

@@stranger07.44 sorry I'm pretty new to this but, will my dual action polisher work to polish these types of scratches after sanding? And will I need a hard pad and strong compound?

[@stranger07.44]

@@thomas9434 a rotary is something you should avoid as a novice. The reason ppl use DA is it's a better finish & it's kinda idiot proof l. I've tried to burn paint with a da and but with the newer compounds, the quality is good enough that messing up is harder than it used to be. U can cut orange peel with a Da, a yellow pad + V32 from chemical guys but a wet sand would be faster then buff with a medium compound and an orange pad. And polish with a polishing compound and a black or red soft pad

[@thomas9434]

@@stranger07.44 I've just sanded a bit down but there's a colour change that needs Sorted, going to hit it with the da, orange pad + farecla g4 pro and hopefully it blends ok, then try using a softer pad and my autoglym polish? (Using these items since they're local to me)

[@therealCompactO]

They should use KZbin to educate themselves 🤣 what a waste of time product and everything 🤦

[@nathancarruthers254]

Anything more than a fingernail size is unnecessary, you actually cause more swirl marks with to much polish, because the courseness of the compound is very abrasive. Also I would love to see this after its first wash

[@bill6023]

I noticed when he was showing the 3M compounds and the buffer, he said "we ran out" so we're gonna use the Turtle Wax. Well, if you wouldn't bathe the quarter panel in 3 cups of cutting compound you might still have some left, just saying.

[@gregmooney4090]

nice job man

[@timiracko6317]

Good vid but there are a few problems with this method and a few misinformations. First and foremost orange peel like that is caused by poor gun setup, not the right materials for the temperature or user error. If undergoing this procedure use at least 3 coats of clear or you will rub too much off and loose protection on your basecoat. Secondly by doing this you will have glass like finish that doesnt match the strucrure of the rest of the paint and mostly looks awfull and repaired to everyone that knows anything about paintwork. Thirdly as stated before this method usualy isnt used in bodyshops. The only thing we polish are local dirt nibs, the off the gun finish should look as good as the factory paint. We only do this on more expensive cars (bentleys, lamborghinis, etc - cars which are wetsended and polished from factory) I understand this is diy, but probably better to perfect the painting strategy to only sand out dust nibs (yes it is possible at home). Thats why good bodywork is expensive it takes time to learn. Anyways dont take this as me being a wiseguy just correcting some points you made in the video, and to tell you practice makes perfect. Besides that very good content guys! Keep up the good work

[@LassetUnsSpielen]

thanks for that. the supplies used are a bit expensive for a small one-time-project (guitar). I tried using old polish compound from 1980 and it didn't do anything, the dull sanded spots are still visible, so I figured i should just apply another clear coat and live with the orange peel. any idea how i get that wax stuff off?

[@timiracko6317]

@@LassetUnsSpielen the only way to get it of is a silicone remover. You can get it at any paint supply store, clean it with it at least 3 times, sand the clear coat and clean again

[@LassetUnsSpielen]

@@timiracko6317 wow, damn, i thought i was almost finished. thank you

[@wallncuz3109]

You said it best. And the orange peel was still there at the end.. so when you say you sand out dust nibs, you clear, sand, clear , sand , clear?

[@timiracko6317]

@@wallncuz3109 no when the nibs are sanded they are only polished. There will always be dust nibs no matter what. But the point is to only sand the nib and not flatten the sorrounding clearcoat so the structure stays the same

I sprays my car a few days ago with 2k clear aerosol, and the result was total orange peel. I thoroughly sanded with 1500, followed by 2000, 2500, and 3000. I then buffed it with farecla G3 paste, and the result was a hazy and slightly shiny finish? I then resanded with the same paper grits as before, and improved the finish quite a lot, but it was a really long slog,cand the result still isn't as good as a paint shop,cany ideas what i might have got wrong?

[@jgz79]

I plan to recoat over my existing clear coat on roof of my car. Its a 2014 car. Should I use 1500 grit or lower?

[@ChrisLuke-uz7hz]

How long after the clear is sprayed and dried do you have to wait?

[@OFFICIAL_DSR]

You should use water with the compound that way it doesn’t dry out in the sun Also I’d say thin your clear coat out from the start and more coats you’ll get a better finish and save the extra work

[@nathancarruthers254]

If the data sheet says no thinners in the clearcoat, then you shouldn't be adding thinners. Thinners causes the solvents to evaporate quicker than what the actual curing time is. Also for saying add more coats to get a better finish. 2 coats application is the most recommended for all HS or UHS clearcoats. The more clearcoat you apply, you're going to have curing issues and flexibility issues.

[@shawnm2113]

Water? No sir. Trust your product. Chemical guys promote a product that you spray your pad with before adding your compound... Waste of money. Watch Esoteric's video explaining this with a scientific method that is blatantly obvious to see.

Can I buff the paint after wet sanding with an orbital buffer? I have a Griots Garage random orbital buffer. Basically it does the same thing but it also moves side to side so you can't burn the paint and the buffer you have only goes in a circle.

You never ever want to cut and buff on a 1 layer clear paint job like this. That leaves no material to protect the paint. I always lay 3-5 coats of clear if I’m planning on cutting (2 coats if not cutting). He also said he used water/wax spray as a lubricant while buffing. You have to wait 60-90 days on fresh paint before using a sealant. Oh my there’s so much wrong in this demonstration.

[@s.c.o.t.t.7743]

I'm confused. Isn't a sealant a type of primer to cover any breakthroughs from prepping with with a fine grit of sandpaper like 600 grit? It seals it from having a side-effect of painting. They call it a wet-on-wet.
