Hey thanks. Thats good that this vid helped you. At 7:28 I am putting a coat of primer over the filler primer (Spray Putty) Primer is always needed over spray putty no matter what your painting. Cheers

Hey enamel will be good for rims. I would recommend using a spray gun because you can add a hardener in the mix. This will make it alot more harder wearing.
@jaypo711 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the reply mate. I'll remember that for future projects. What I actually meant was in that in your old video "spraying plastic engine parts" you didn't use a primer again after the filler primer - you went straight to the colour coat so I was just double checking your preferred technique now. Filler primer is great stuff btw :)

Ah I see, will have to do some more research on that because I did do a quick search to check if they are different before you said it but I found the same products listed as both putty/filler primer. Might be a topic for a video!? Between you and mighty car mods I'm being kept busy! Thanks mate.

ZX9RinHollywood Yep, well shot vid, good end result, but for a guy whos "custom spraymods" he has no fuckin idea on how to prep and repair a dent. lots of bad info for beginners here. a thick coat of filler over old paint and primer, etch primer over everything except bare metal and acrylic spray putty just waiting to shrink. a recipe for disaster. i dont like to hang shit on guys having a go at repairs but in the 21st century there is just no excuses for passing on bad info on improper repair techniques

I have 2 dented fork covers that I was planning on filling with bondo. Since they're small parts I thought after they're filled/primed/painted, it wouldnt be noticable if I sanded well enough. Is there an order I should know when I'm prepping for the bondo? Besides sanding and degreasing prior to filling, what else would I do to make a cleaner finish? And how much sanding afterwards? You commented on laying too much bondo on top of the previous primer/paint, should I just use aircraft remover and strip the area i'm going to be filling? Information such as this since i've never tried filling anything. I have a rusted and dented tank I was planning on filling also so I was going to see how well this went to see if it's a viable option.

This video is good for a diy quick fix only. This was not the proper way to sand, apply body filler or paint. A quality paint job lasts for years. Body filler can't be applied that thick. That's why it cracked in the first place. Also you didn't sand past the dent. Primer, paint and body filler can not grab onto shiny paint underneath. You have to sand past the dent. Anywhere that is getting paint, primer or body filler has to be sanded or at least scuffed with scotchbright. Also spraying etching primer over body filler is a no no. Etching primer has acid in it with is used to bite into bare metal. The acid will warp body filler if sprayed over top of it. I also didn't see any instructions about feather edging the body filler, which is why you probably had to use a sprayable acrylic putty to cover your horrible bodywork. Acrylic putty is also a no no. It's old technology that is no longer used because they didn't have anything better back in the day. Acrylic putty shrinks over time in the sun. Causing cracking, waves, pinholes to reappear, etc.

I've never used spray cans to paint a motorcycle before so bear with me. can you still put a clear coat over your finish product. The reasoning being is, I have decals that have to go over the finish coat, and I need to clear coat them to help them stay on. I have another ? when I use a clear coat, what product can I spray on, that will prevent damage if gasoline hits paint job.
