If i don't have that 2 k clear coat what other clear coat could I use

[@Tim252525252]

good tip: in stead of using tape on the left on the bumper what will leave a line you want to use a A4 paper and fold it in half so you have the round side of the paper facing the part you want to paint. in that way you wont have a line but you have a smooth trasition.

[@Mad4Motors_]

Hi thanks the transition was invisible after I flatted and buffed it next day thanks

[@PoppinPortraits]

Tim ...a better tip: the bumpers tiny, paint the whole darned panel, simples, no transition!!

[@redsuru2217]

Ye that’s true I work for a company which dose all this stuff mobile

[@MichaelLesesne]

Note: Don't tape the side you aren't painting. You'll have a hard line. Some fall over from the paint is okay. You can always buff out imperfections later. 👌🚗👍

[@lightskinsosa9220]

Mike Lesesne what can i do if i end up with that hard line?

[@paulhunter123]

yes theres a hard paint line where the paint was applied right up to the taped off area. This could have been avoided by not taping the masking paper tight down to the bumper but placed over it instead and secured. However with a fine wet and dry paper it could be feathered in and buffed up. which i later read is what the guy did and got a seamless transition. Good repair.

[@natashaprame9226]

Thanks so much for this tutorial! I repaired huge deep scratches on my car (took me maybe 10 hours all up across 2 days). I'm a car noob but following this video helped me get perfect results! I really appreciate the simplicity of this video and the fact that I saved around $1000 by doing this myself. Something I didn't expect however was the mismatch of my car gloss with the acrylic lacquer so I had to buff out the repaired area afterwards.

[@jerrymatthew4394]

Well done, I already get my bumper repaint and it cost me $ 500. You probably spend less then $ 50 and the result look not bad at all.

You might as well start painting the house after.

[@robertcain3426]

A tip. Apply the filler first and then sand the whole thing once. Yes, it's unorthodox but the deep part of the scratch has already been abraded so it will stick unless it's an old repair and has been waxed.

[@ColinPrince]

I enjoyed the video you made repairing the Audi, but this video made me believe that even I could do it. My biggest mistake in the past was not taking enough time ( impatience) and applying the paint too thickly, both of which I now recognise as my main mistakes. Thanks so much. Colin.

[@johhny212100]

As much as this is a great video it's not for amateurs , you need a shed for one , it's time consuming, it's not worth the hassle for someone to try it inexperienced. Not too knock your video it's brilliantly done...I had to get my corrected by a panel beater, still glad I tried it. I def recommend watching it a few times and do small parts at one time.

[@R0GUES]

I've been painting and repairing cars for 30 years I do love reading all the comments lol highlight of my day 😘

[@patrickarseneault7407]

great video but one thing you never do is cut a panel or bumper in half to prevent paint from going over. what it will do is leave a line when you tear the tape off like what happen at 8:40 . you should be better at leaving it open and light spray over to do a blend in

[@shiewaanwyeth5922]

Hi. What I like about you my sir. You don't leave any small detail out. Like most of the other guys. I'm definitely a big fan of yours. Thanks again my sir.

[@Twitch_Moderator]

People going on about the difference in color: *IT'S CALLED FLASHING!!! PAINT LOSES IT VIBRANCY AFTER UV RAYS FADE THE COLORS OVER THE YEARS. CHILL OUT!! IT LOOKS GREAT.*

[@timvu3095]

Very good and clear instructions on how to repair and repaint the bumper. However, I can see a line where the tape was on the left side of the painted area, meaning that the paint won't have a consistent color with the rest of the bumper. He should have repainted the entire bumper, so there is no line and the paint color would be consistent across the entire bumper. Even if you can get the same paint using the color code from the manufacturer, it does not mean that the new paint is exactly the same color. It appears that he did the work outside in the drive way or the street, which is no no for painting. You can do all the sanding, body filling, and scuffing outside to keep the dusts level down but you want to paint inside a garage or close space, so you don't get air borne contaminants to settle on your wet paint. The best option at home garage is really using plastic liner and masking tape to make the enclose space big enough to keep the car inside and prevent the dusts from settling on the paint. Of course, you would want to wear decent respirator for the entire time including sanding, cleaning, painting, etc. to protect your lungs from the nasty dusts and aerosol paint. He is right on one thing, the painting has to be done at the right temperature and humidity so that the paint can dry and cure properly or it won't last.

[@smauringhojai]

Can you please give me the names of products used in the process?

[@ALEXANDERCRETA1]

How you remove the line to the left from masking paper tape that makes the differend to the old paint from the new?

Wow! Great job! I just stupidly bumped our car into our wall. Now the left side rear bumper has a crack and the sides of the bumper has a long scratch. I hope I find the right red color though. But thanks!

[@Mad4Motors_]

Yes give it a try!

I scratched or I should say scuffed my inside car frame (front passenger door). Went to kfc drive through it was dark and quite narrow (never used drive through before). I’m quite worried. Husband doesn’t know yet 😭

[@coyote5735]

The only thing I noticed was the overspary on the left of the bumper @ 8:42 there is a definite line in the paint from where you removed the masking tape.

[@sicktwistedkids]

Just a TIP don't tape the other side of the bumper when applying the colour and clear coat or you'll end with with a picture fame affect like you did in the video where you can tell its not bleeding into the paint

Never ever mask off a bumper like that otherwise you get a nasty line. Just leave it but clean everything with T cut and then polish the area which you've blown in. That way, no line. Jus sayin.

yes, that's why he didn't show the whole bumper at the end, as you can see it.

[@alkalionpower]

Obviously the new paint inst going to match the paint that has been on your car for years...the only part where he screwed up was he masked while putting on the base coat and didn't blend anything.

[@CHATHK]

Yes i think he should apply only one coat in final

[@toxrozzx8158]

Yup i've tried that many times not blending it in, then there appears a line

[@ClvyD]

the purpose was to show how to repair the scuff

[@scorpion-qp6vs]

u need to use blend out thinner so u don't get a hard edge and probably get a coloured matched aerosol from an car paint supply store because hycote only have standard shade color in there aerosols just a tip.

[@designerbumpercovers-luxur7673]

Fully understand and respect your view. Our products are not everyone.

[@andrewwilliams3709]

The black moulding will just pop out, leaving it there made an easy job a bit harder.

[@MichelLinschoten]

You need to start with 80 sand it until the BLACK do not do it like he shows, as the filler will not grab on well on the finish of the bumper! Then you will see deeper scratches fill those. Then use 80 again to take it off the filler. Then use 180 to smooth it out gently and primer it, a couple times then fine sand it, then paint it

[@rayblessing9058]

Thanks for the technique! Where can someone buy the spray paint to match the make and model of the car? This information would be extremely helpful to your viewers!

So why body shops be telling me they need to repaint my whole car for something like this

[@sesaralvarez2334]

Victor Cordero for the $$$

[@JFhimalaya]

Maybe They are right because When the paint got lighter by the sun and you paint that little spot you wil see a big color difference you understand

[@calvinlaudrensio415]

Because you probably don't want to end up having a bumper with a different color from the body like this. For me personally it's an eyesore, I rather keep the scratches.

[@trentriver]

Just paint the entire bumper of it bothers you.

[@maxmanx1294]

Good body shops can blend so well that we can't tell the difference. It is unnecessary to paint the entire car unless the entire car is scratched. Go to a real body shop & make sure it isn't a place designed to paint entire cars.

[@Dan_druft]

How come the bumper is a different colour from the rest of the car ? and you have masked so you have a hard edge. You should have compounded the rest of the bumper and on the last coat of clear used a blending clear thinner

Paint has left a edge hence why the full panel should be sprayed.

[@MichaelLesesne]

Or... Don't tape it off. 👌

[@Arlo-s6f]

Be sure to designate a safe space for your vehicle, away from moving traffic. Ideally in a garage with adequate ventilation to prevent particulate matter from landing on your paint during each stage. Quite a great job! (I think it'd look stellar if you contacted your manufacturer and matched the make(I presume a Volvo or Saab) and model's paint to match the original engine manufacturer's (OEMs))

[@imachildofthemosthighgod2906]

Magic eraser helped with those types of scratches that truly amazed me 😅

[@noelcallan4071]

So how do match the exact same paint color to the original color ? Is there a paint number somewhere on the car ? And if so is it easily available in rattle spray cans ?

[@charlesdudek7713]

The color code is usually on the driver's door frame. Your owner's manual and/or dealer would help you locate it if needed. The paint is normally available at either an auto parts store (often cheaper price) or at the dealership. The problem is it rarely matches exactly. If you notice the new paint in the video doesn't appear to match exactly either.

[@amana1480]

How will the paint stick to the areas you didn't sand initially, for example near the wheel arch? Will it peel off eventually?

He didnt finish yet. There is still a bit of blending to do. Since he masked the very edge of the bumper he has a hard line. He will have to sand it with 2000 grit and then polish the full panel. It should be all even by then
