Repairing DEEP Car Scratches .. EASY?

[@MauriceEllerbee]

Haven’t tuned in since the 550i content some years back and some videos here and there after that with the injector replacement for the Z and so on. Glad to see you’re still moving and grooving.

[@MauriceEllerbee]

Probably would’ve used less of that mirror finish. Less is better with the polisher and you can just add more as needed per area.

[@MauriceEllerbee]

Looks great those. Especially for not knowing how to do it exactly it definitely came out really good.

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Thanks for tuning in! I miss my 550i and want another V8 at some point, but time will tell. I will be adjusting my method based on suggestions here and doing the other panels. I watched a few videos and read a few forums and everyone seems to have a different method, so it's the case of keep trying until it works for you and just do that from then on lol.

[@MauriceEllerbee]

@@SimpleCarGuy best way to do it lol no one moves the same way or same speed same with welding which is what I’m learning now.

[@SharonRaeRyan]

Thank you for sharing what you learned! Its really helpful to see what techniques you used and how you improved.

i love that you included your failed attempt as well. Great video

Good work, but don't go from a heavy cut and wool right to Meguairs 7. I was impressed you used that number 7, I've used that since the early 90s...dates back to the 50s if I recall. It's really a glaze though with fillers and ideal for single stage paints. Doesn't hold up at all, but gives a nice slick look if you showing. If I were you, ditch the wool, stick with a meguiars 105 to cut, 205 to polish. Use foam and/or microfiber pads. That will get you through about 95% of any paint correction you ever encounter.

i dont see this scratch anymore good job

[@raymondevil]

May I know what's the reason of mixing the base paint with clear coat?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Sure, it’s so that you don’t have to do 2 stages and still have the same sheen as OEM paint.

[@raymondevil]

@@SimpleCarGuy i'll give it a try. been struggling to touch up a deep scratch on the bumper but the clear coat create is so thick and after wet sanding, it literally sand off the clear coat and cutting the base paint.

[@artemike]

If you cannot mix base coat with clear coat how would you do it? Apply base coat, sand, apply clear coat, sand, compound, polish, wax ?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

That's it. You'd have to sand between the base and the clear coat.

[@maxmitty]

great!

I’ve had a car for just over a year now and not put any scratches on it myself, however I have left it twice now in a particular spot and it’s been deeply cut twice, each time in that spot. I’m going to have to use this technique… it’s really angered me

Bruh you didn’t show us a close up of the finished product 💀
