  • HOW TO REPAIR DEEP CAR PAINT SCRATCH LIKE A PRO
    If you have deep scratch on your car and you are trying to repair the scratch so it is not noticeable this is the right video. In this video we will demonstrate how to repair deep car scratch and make it not visible. We demonstrated on a car that got either keyed or the scratch was caused by a shopping cart. As you can see with the touch up paint you were not able to see the scratch anymore. You cannot just expect a scratch to be filled it. You will have to blend it and polish it so it is not visible.

    Still very visible, and that was in spite of the straight on angle you filmed to make it look good- you needed to apply more paint after levelling the first time. The idea is to build up the paint in the scratch so it is proud of the original finish then sand back, clear coat and polish. Also you should have used tape to localise the sanding area to only a 1/2 inch either side of the scratch and use a suitable sanding block to fit only that area. All in all a pretty woeful job for professionals...

      Ps. The putrids worthless idiots who deliberately keyed my friends car got caught n charged for all the other bs they were doing to my friends car. How? :
      We cleaned the scratch n bought hidden cameras , the putrids got caught n we called the cops , they got charged n payed for everything. Fkers🤬🤬 .
      😎😎🧿Btw definitely keyed their putrid car back!! And it was done right after we bought the security cams.
      Putrid worthless idiots who key cars for no reason and want to start fights , are just begging for their putrid cars to be smashed.
      If that's happening to you n You've done nothing bad , you shouldn't take that kind of bs . Establish boundaries n set foot that u don't tolerate that bs it otherwise those putrid idiots will think they can do it frequently n get away with it.

    It's crazy no matter how good of a job you do there's always people that have something negative to say in the beginning of the video he mentions that the scratch will not be perfect but it will hide it I think he did a great job looks pretty good he never said that the scratch will be totally one-hundred-percent gone so maybe you guys on here are hard of hearing or have selective hearing most people have selective hearing they only hear what's going on in their freaking head guys I think you did a great job especially on the fact that you did state in the beginning of your video that the scratch would not be totally gone but he will hide it as good as he can that's exactly what he said everybody knows to totally get rid of a scratch you either have to take all coats of paint off down to the base and start all over again or just paint the whole freaking car so I believe we all know that so why get on here and waste time being negative I bet the people talking all that negative mess I bet you you wouldn't even take the time or have the patience to do that kind of work just based off the fact that you can't even listen smh people man this is exactly why I world is the way it is now always hating on one another try congratulating or maybe just keeping your negative comments to your damn self in your own negative had cuz we don't want to hear it and that's a fact didn't your mother ever tell you if you don't have anything good to say to keep your mouth shut🙏🙏🙏🙏 God Bless America because we needed as a people

    My first job was a painters apprentice at a collision center. Uou want to try and feather the edges of the scratch so you don’t have high spots protruding above the new paint. Also lay the pad flat and use X strokes. A drop of dawn in the water also helps out while wet sanding.

  • @NINJUTSUguy
    @NINJUTSUguy Před 3 lety +6

    Ok, the key is to fil the scratch so that it can be sanded dead flat it looks like you have sanded the high spots but neglected to fill in all the low spots that's why it is so easy to see, you do not have a flat surface where the scratch was! So in my opinion, if someone took the time to slowly build-up the scratched area so that it was slightly higher than the original paint surface and then carefully sanded the area until completely flat and then begun to cut polish and after that buff using the last compound to create a good shine the scratch would have been much more difficult to see and a reasonable result could be achieved from that product. Although this is far from how a professional would go about fixing a scratch like this, the product is a DIY alternative for home use.

    I'm supprised by all the negative comments as this scratch seems to look better than larry's of ammo nyc when he did the mercedes G55 key scratch. This repair makes the scratch less noticeable and is a major improvement, not everyone has hundreds spare to pay a shop to repray the panel.

    Dipping a brush in clear and run it across the applied and sanded paint would have really sealed the job and preserved it and then wet sand it and polish it would protect it since after some time after rainy days and car washes it will become visible again! just a tip to add for others how to make the job even better! other than that everything else was done right and correct!

    @scottfirman Před 3 lety +4

    I read that a straight razor blade should be used after painting. Also, when paint is scratched, it leaves a hump on eather side of the scratch. Using a razor blade flat against the panel levels the hump before actually using the paint. He already stated you cannot completely hide the damage to that panel. Its impossible to blend after market paint into factory paint. Even body shops have problems completely matching factory paints. The best they can do is redo the entire panel or blend the new paint into the old. I was quoted $500 to repair a scratched rear panel on our Subaru because they told me the entire panel had to be repainted, not patched in. I understand that part. Black and dark paint is the hardest to fix people. Yeah, it still shows, period. The right way to fix it as like I said. The owner probably said no.

      @@mattlawton4715 don't be stupid. the application and preparation was poorly done.
      The guy had the right idea, fill it, sand it, and polish however didn't do it good enough.
      You need to FILL the indent. Imagine the shape "U" in a 3D space. That indent needs to be filled, and extend horizontally past the surface (the 2 lines going vertically). Once higher, you then sand down so make everything level and finally polish to remove sandpaper marks....
      The scratch still being visible represents a "W" in 3D space. Some has been filled in to the surface, but some also hasn't.. hence why the "indent" is still shown in some places. The repair could've been done MUCH better had a little more time and care been taken. The principle is correct, however the application is not.
