Are guys looking to blend your rattle can paint job? If so I have a video on the topic czcams.com/video/GyfkM5Q8JbU/video.html
Such quality work mad to look so easy. Gave me confidence to do my own car and yes it looks nothing like your repairs but got there in the end. Love ya video keep up the good work
Ååå
If you is interested in spray painting the greatest results that i've had was by using the Magic Painter Method (i found it on google) without a doubt the no.1 course that I've tried.
You are amazing! I am hoping to fix my car. I am so impressed by your work and honesty. You are a nice person. Thank you for your generosity
You did a great job 👍✌
Ok, there are lots of 'thumbs down' no doubt from people who are professionals or perfectionists. This was a simple repair job that came out very well. Anyone with a bit of craft experience could take this sort of repair on. If you took that to a pro body shop they would charge a lot of money. I think it was a good video and he explained what he was doing well.
for sure. and not all body shop "professionals" do a good job either.
I've had paint flake off and panels rusting months after work in body shops covered by insurance. after they took large sums of money.
I would prefer the work he did here than many body shops.
i just did this job on my own bumper following this process and it turned out great. not perfect but great.
ok?
Bodyshop professionals hate this simple trick. 😆
Honestly. If everybody figures out how to do body repair and paint from CZcams they'd be out of business soon so of course they will thumbs down.
@@dirtmcgirt7125 They would still get the big jobs.
I’ve just tried to do this and the primer wasn’t dry and I’ve wasted all my paint and primer, it was a disaster lol.
Thanks mate for doing a "minimum job minimum effort" approach instead of most youtubers who would have taken the bumper , headlights, wheel and maybe the engine out while they're at it just to get to the scuff on the front.
Car looks new..
LOL!! "and maybe the engine out" absolutely killed me! this is absolute truth!!
Yes and also let some air out the tires lol
hehe yeah and use a high spec torque wrench too while there at it
💀
Great video, my friend - you cut straight to the chase, none of the 10 minute introductions and shameless product promotions which are all too common in these videos.
Everything looks so simple until you try on your car.
Hahaha very true!
Lol
That's very true!
Its very easy when i see how to do it. But i literally no confidence in doing such good job. Scared if failed and end up more work to do 😂
Agreed experience is everything you have to put in the work
I have been in the smash repairs trade for 33years, love to watch guys that can do just as well from home, awesome job.
Butch Muir are you one of them that would say oh your bumper is hit we got to spray the whole car 😒
But yu know that the BIG jobs are always going to go to a shop. But these small jobs are great for the few people who can take them on.
My favorite part on body work is watching others do it.
lmao comment of the day
Tru :-)
Mine too, until they bill me for it.
Exactly
My fav part is the clear coat makes it shine
this was a nice straight forward and honest video, not over complicated, exactly what the DIY guy needs. not overloaded with info, everything you said was valuable. thanks for taking the time to share this, you helped me a lot with my project.
Your videos are amazing, my wife has 09 civic the clear peeled off, rust started around the wheel and she scuffed the bumper, 550$ Bodyshop repair, thx to ur videos I got it all done under 100$ and one afternoon!!
Great video, no music, no waffle, just a clear explanation of the process.
Wow! Great results, I had a scuff mark on my '15 Camry similar to this for about 3 years and wanted to fix it up, but no clue on how to do it. You gave me the confidence to fix up my car! Thank you!
Subscribed! I really appreciate it when you take off the masking tape on camera so we can see that you haven’t secretly done anything to make it look better than it is. And it certainly doesn’t need it because this paint job is amazing. Thanks so much!
You explain everything so well. I never thought it would be so easy to repair paint work. Saved me a lot. Thanks
I followed this tutorial exactly for the bumper on my 2018 Dodge Ram and I am absolutely amazed with the result. Thank you so much for making this!
Frank Spatacco Hey, you were able to get your car’s paint color in a can as well? Are you in the States?
@@Kshais Yes and Yes. In North Hollywood California. Finishmaster.
Good to hear. My basic chevy cruz got swiped on the back bumper. Absolutely no damage to the actual body, but quite a lot of scratched paint. The car's...not really worth a huge paint bill, maybe this will work!
How long would you say it took you from start to finish?
@@troybrown7523 Good question. I did it in parts. Day one was primer and sand (2 hours) and day 2 was paint and clear (3 hours). I did it outside on a non windy day. Really great results.
superb work mate. watching these videos gave me the courage to finally fix the bumper on my truck and seeing this step by step made the whole process a lot easier. thanks for all the help, keep up the great work! cheers!
Brilliant, thank you. Have been looking for a good guide and this was spot on 👍🏼
Omg, you are amazing! I am sad because I scratched and dented my car today. It bothered me so much that I phoned a repair shop. They want 600 Canadian dollars. I am a single mom of three kids. This gives me hope. I will build the courage to do it by myself. Thank you.
If I was your neighbour I would definitely help.. I mean a single mom, why not !!
@@simonmunchen5914 lmfaooo I'm deadd
@@simonmunchen5914 would you help me or would I need to be a single mum too??
@@lukecowell7516 lmao
I couldn't keep my eyes open during that. Not because it was boring but because your voice is so chilled. Great job 👍
Amazing!! Probably one of if not the best video teaching people to repair scratches 👌🏼
Repaired a similar scuff like this today, this guide was absolutely excellent, really helped me with blending the repair into the rest of the car. The heat gun is the essential key to doing all 3 stages in one go.
the most important part is getting the correct paint match. Good job !
Great instructions and excellent results.I didn't have to plow through an hour of B.S. to get to the information.
This is a really good tutorial, the best I have seen. Professional car bodywork is expensive in Ireland, so it makes it well worth doing the job yourself. Before living in Ireland I lived in Thailand where professional bodywork is so cheap that it's pointless doing it yourself.
I did a similar repair on my car and found that the hardest thing is to make a soft edge between the new and old base coat without noticing.
You can also see the edge in this repair. At 8:13 he is pointing at the tape to make a soft edge and at 11:35 you can clearly see the edge. The edge will be even more noticeable in sunlight.
You sure you're not seeing one of the reflections in the bumper? I'm struggling to see any lines myself.
@@rustycooper7684 I don't think it's a reflection. At 11:35 at the bottom, you can see a new shiny clear coat right next to an old beat-up clear coat where the tape was.
The transition can be softened with buffing but at the right angle under the sunlight, the line is still noticeable. That is why you never repair the hood this way. You coat the entire hood. This car is probably no longer new, so such a repair makes sense.
Crazy that McGregor had to become a body tech after losing that fight
Dustin and Khabib make it possible
That's life, sometimes its riches to rags, not the other way round
this accent is VERY different to him. It's from south Ireland. Possibly Kilkenny or Waterford.
That explains the hand speed!
A little tip when you're sanding the primer, spray a thin coat of black paint over the primer, that way you can see if there's any pumps or hollows when you're sanding it.
@Big Boy hump, pump.. What ever 😉
only if using a sanding block the entire time as it's flat. he used his fingers for some of the final sanding which will actually sand-in those dips and waves you're referring to. The tip is to always use a soft/flexible sanding block for an even finish
A guide coat
Or just use light?🤔🤔🤔
Guide coat, don’t know why I’ve rarely heard people use this technique. A show car painter told me about this technique and I use it every time I sand now... brilliant suggestion
Great video! Easy to follow, concise and explanations along the way. Preparing to repair my BMW front bumper. Much smaller area than your repair. Your work looks great!
Followed these instructions to the letter. I now have a perfect repaired car. Thank you
Thank you a lot. This was very educational and was quite fun to fix up your own car. For my first time, I am 95% satiesfied with my job. Thanks for the great help!
Probably the best video I've seen on this, everything you need to know, all well explained (even down to using the mask with 2K). Great job
I'm usually putting on the turd coat as soon as I start spraying. Great job on this Audi!
I watched the video on the blue Passat I've never been able to do body work, I thought I'd the filler spot on 5 times I'd to re do it but I kept at it due to the video, I've went through several cans of high build primer and base coat only to see the repair again! I've stuck at it and eventually I'm 98% delighted with result more importantly I've learned, thanks for a great few videos and look forward to seeing and learning more cheers
Works like a charm! I checked a lot of video’s and tutorials. This one made most sense to me. Did a whole bumper with lot of scratches and half a panel on the side. Perfect result. Glad I chose to follow this one.
Cheers!
I check other video and it said that you shouldn't use body filler that use for a fender and apply it on a plastic bumper because it could crake. Bondo bumper filler is made for plastic only and to use on bumper only. Also to use adhesion promoter before putting on primer so the primer and the paint will stick to the bumper. What's your opinion. Great job. But confused.
Pleasure to watch a master at work! Thanks for uploading 👍
Thanks for this video. It's one of the most helpful I've found for my small RV repairs (although the RV doesn't have a clear coat it seems...body is fiberglass). I especially appreciate seeing your spray motion technique.
found this video after I got a scratch on my carbon race bike, absolutely amazing work.
I have used this video twice for different cars. I like the simplicity of how he shows the job. Just a few grades of sandpaper the Filler sand again and then the paint.
But does he buff the paint after applying ? Does he resend the clear and then use a buffer?
simply WOW ! nice job man !!! - i totaly got the confidence to try to fix mine
Best bodywork from a can vid I've seen! Thank you!
Man, you answered all the questions I had on my mind, and many questions I hadn't yet thought of. 🤔
Brilliant. It's good to see someone kn CZcams who knows what they're doing.
I’ve watched this video several times now and finally plucked up the courage to do some repair work on my own car. This video was a brilliant instructional aid explained in language that I could understand! While I made it look a lot more hard work than you did I am very pleased with the results and also the money saved from the garage quote (about six hundred pounds)! Thanks for a great video.
That’s great to hear and glad u saved some money 👍
@@Mad4Motors_hi man, i'm just wondering when you applied 4 coats of paint to the repaired area did you also paint the entire panel as well or was the light sanding of the non damaged just preparation for adhesion of the clear coat. Thanks!
How was your results out of 10? Just wondericHiw What type of results us normal folks can expect.
damn impressed. i knew theoretially can jobs could be good, but never braved to go for it myself. but thanks for the video tutorial. well appreciated
It might be hard at the beginning to do it myself but your video is very detailed and educating. Well done 👏👏
Cheers from across the pond!!! Thank you for making this!!! Saved me a lot of money fixing my wife's vehicle.
Literally taking back my first thoughts when I read the title was “no chance with a can” completely proved me wrong looks great
Now I can fully appreciate and understand the amount of effort AND time it takes a body shop to fix a car.
It's very very hard and time consuming work especially the sanding / wet-sanding part. Spraying is fun but sanding isn't. I have done refinishing my front bumper (the entire bumper and requires removal) in the past and took me 2 months to sand the damn thing, before and after painting. Sanding time will take up 90% of the entire process. If you use professional tools such as sand grinder with various sizes cutting pads it can cut down man hours by 1/2 but still pain in the ass. If you use 2K clear coat then you don't have to wet-sand after clear coat because it does pretty good job laying the clear down nice and flat, but you gotta have skillful hands to do it right. If you use 1k lacquer clear coat man you are in for tough luck cause you have to sand it again and again and again till it gets smooth. And if the clear you put on is too thin then you'll lose all your clear from sanding so you have to apply plenty of clear so this problem can be prevented. Don't try to save a few bucks on clear coat by getting those cheap 1k clear stuff just go with the 2K clear and you'll save yourself a lot of work.
That's what I do every day.. working for the biggest shop in Denmark for the insurance company's and fixing damages cars every day.
He could use a machine for that sanding which will make it easier and much faster.... this is no magic
"Wow, this video is a lifesaver! Thomas not only showed us how to save a ton of money by repairing car scratches ourselves but also made it look so easy. The step-by-step instructions and materials list were incredibly helpful. Thanks, Thomas, for empowering us to take car maintenance into our own hands!"
That was a great job mate. I may build up enough courage to try it on my own damaged bumper!
Fab job - and surprisingly therapeutic to watch! 😊
I'm impressed,though it never comes out that good when I do it....
You inspired me to fix the hole my wife put on the car I bought 1 week earlier.
Started today. Rain got me and I left the car with the body filler to cure.
Will continue tomorrow with sanding and applying more body filler on the hole cause I don’t think 1 round is enough. But already, it looks like new!
Would highly recommend getting a plastic piece from a junkyard and practicing on it first. I did the video thing above on my bumper and caused all kinds of problems (I mean me causing the problems from lack of experience). Then worked on my daughter's car bumper the following week and it came out great, similar to the video. Little things you learn of when to push the spray button on the can; to put on 2-3 very light coats first of any spray, let dry 5 minutes between each...then put on the heavier "wet" spray for the last coat. But not too much or it runs. Better I thought to let each "wet" coat dry overnight. Buy the higher cost sprays also, don't use anything cheap: another lesson I learned. I wrote down each step also then followed it. Rather enjoy doing this work now, did a friends 3 months later and he could not believe it was not done by a professional shop. Further note: I just used 180 grit and higher. 80 grit seemed to abrasive where I was fixing those scratches I caused with the 80 grit.
This encourages me to fix my honda odyssey. thnx for putting on CZcams
RSJ GAMES what year was your van? Noticed ours pealing as well. 2011.
I got it scratched
Why would you bother fixing a Honda? It's just a Honda.
The BEST instructional video I’ve ever watched on CZcams. You were clear, concise, and kept it easy to follow. Slainte....
I agree
This is a great guide and I wish I'd seen it before I did a repair on one of my cars a few months ago. The biggest mistake I made was starting off with 80 grit instead of 180 and I did not use a 2k clear! At least I know now thanks.
right - this video has given me the confidence to give this a lash. Thanks man! Excellent stuff.
I have a few small scratches on my 17’ Accord and I can’t justify spending hundreds on the work.
This gives me some hope/knowledge so I can save me a lot of money and learn a new skill.
Thank you for the informative video.
Yea, This Is Cool :)
Great job and a superb finish in the paintwork.
Brilliant. Gave me confidence to give it a go and I'm pleased with the result. Saved me a lot of money.
Good job mate, you followed all steps correctly. The issue with cans is what it looks like 6 months later. Sinkage is the main problem with repairs like this. 4-1 high build primer has to be used over filler for Lifetime guarantee. Hs laquer as well. Your job looks good now but wont last the life of the car. Good diy job
"Turd coat was very smude" 😂🤣😂 Well done mate!
Hahahahahaha
Just his accent you knob head
Fuck off
Jesus, sensitive boys.
As soon as I heard turd coat 😂😂 time to check the comments
Nice work brother love you're videos and work!👍💯
sleepe361 **Your*
Awesome video. Takes the fear out of the "black magic" of body work. Great job!
This video helped me paint the bumper on my bmw 440, saved so much money and people can’t tell the difference. thanks mate
Thanks for sharing your wisdome, and greatings from Germany! I got to go now. There is a bumper waiting for me ;)
Nice job!!... Now, I'm going to apply it to fix my parent's car. Thank you for the video!! 😊
Wow looks so simple...though not really in actuality.
Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻
Thanks Mr. Motors, or can I call you Madfa?
Love your videos: short and to the point, some drive me mad ,waffling.
Decided to have a go and re-did my bumper. rattle cans these days have got a fairly good spray pattern.
Lesson 101: BE PATIENT, don't spray too much at a time, and let it dry.
I only had clear with 2k technology, not the real thing, so did 4 coats, let dry for 3-4 days, rubbed back with 1500 wet/dry till 'smood' (I'm Irish ancestory too), and then polished the crap out of it with Meguiars (not compound) and a DA sander. Came up brilliantly! Thanks again
Sick! Time to repair my wife’s car. I can totally do this myself. Thanks bro
Ipgtobf
Bloody hell, amazing, with just cans of paint!
Looks top notch, thanks for posting dude.
I just scraped the bottom of my bumper driving out of my local petrol station onto the road with a camber, I think that’s the word.
So this will come in useful
Brilliant!! ... I've always used my pro guns but like you said and proved on video you can actually get a good job done with rattle cans, .. Well done and thanks for sharing.
Nice job. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Thanks!
“Nice and smood “ Love this guys accent 👍😀😆
You dont even need a spray gun to paint your care! Lol his accent is dope
Followed your technique. Done quite a decent job. Thank you. Hope to see more videos like this
I’m so glad I found your channel. Excellent work!
Concise and clear, super-helpful video. Given me a little more confidence in tackling my own car repairs. Cheers!
Looking at doing my own, how did this work for you?
@@MC-girly
I think the main problem was my lack of experience, but it wasn't a bad result.
Sadly, old Fords rust lol
Welp, time to go ruin my BMW with this newfound overconfidence!
same but i got a mustang im so worried to even try it. but i guess it will be cheaper than taking it else where.
Yup!! Bout to mess my Audi too
Any update guys?
My E90's gonna go through the same shit. Good luck
Damn guys im glad i have a cheap ass car to try this on lmao
Thanks for sticking to the basics, thanks for showing us how to do it!!!
Ok I am following this again. Just filled my bumper, rear pannel and undercoated it. Put the top coat and just sprayed the gloss coat on. All done in 2 days. I did the job over a couple of days due to time constraints
I'm doing this as I txt, I've just finished sanding down the area I needed to work on. Tomoz will apply my body filler and sand that down. It's looking good so far
How did it go?
@@MrSpeedy99 he died. Too much filler.
@@stephenmurphy2675 hahaha
Excellent video. The only thing I would add is a clear coat blender, also from a spray can, to avoid clear end lines where you take the paper off. Over time, that might cause peeling. Otherwise, a great tutorial.
From my point of view, it looks better than before. Great job bro. Looks impresive indeed.
Makes it look so easy,and it is if you know what your doing,great channel mate,glad it came up as a suggestion 😉
He did a great job. But problems I have had attempting this that were out of my control: Paint can sprayed evenly but the paint can tended to spatter. The physical paint layer was even, but being metallic, the color was uneven even after extended and vigorous mixing. Clearcoat nozzle developed clogs resulting in uneven spray patterns and blotchy finish. Even with a clean garage and a tacky wipedown before clearcoating, you cannot avoid trash in the finish. Lastly, even in this video, there is an obvious difference in color between the original paint color and the sprayed area.
The tip is to warm your paint cans up for 5mins in front of a hot air gun shaking every 30seconds till the tin is warm and warm paint cans have much better effect, no splatter either.
@@MrNoNameThanks I noticed the same colour mismatch. If what II saw is right, it was a poor effort.
Someone hit my rear bumper and scratched it when I was at the supermarket. Im so scared to do this by myself. But what a great result dude
Completely blown away 😮. Amazing fella !! 👏👏👏
where did you go sir, you are a GOD! This may be a few years old but i feel its going to be the best help ill get while i save money for a full body paint job on my car thats collectible. i watched your rust video and am going to tackle that now before it gets to bad since its on the unibody. Thank you. watching these for the newer vehicles and kiddos and bikes hah. i just wish i had these paints here in the US :(
Excellent results ! Ideal if you are selling your car ! But if you are keeping a car , a rattle can does not apply enough paint ... it will fade , peel , dull in time !
Great job. Serious finish from a rattle an too. All the best from Athlone.
Good man yourself cheers
@@Mad4Motors_ I do me best. Been doing a bit of car stuff of late. Thanks for the pin. Appreciate it.
George EI7KO
Mad4Motors can you give me the name of the 2k clear coat pls, I can’t find it on internet. Thanks for your work! 💕
No wonder my garage charges so much for fixing the scratches!!
Absolute top teaching videos , please keep up the good work 10/10
Thanks for taking the time to show these techniques. You have given me information and confidence to have a go myself. Sláinte
Man that “Turd” coat is frigging awesome! Great job... Ima follow all these steps on my old beater pickup...
Came out really well 👌. Nice to hear someone mentioning techniques for painting in the cooler temperatures here in Ireland. I'm in Armagh myself. What would be the minimum temperature you would be comfortable painting in?
Hell yeah. My optima has a scratch about the same spot. I gotta do this exact fix. This will help me through the process. Thanks man.
Amazing skills! Thank you so much for a professional made video of the work and sound.
It seems to me that people bashing this video 1) are in the industry and are offended that it wasn't done to OE Spec - 2) Did not watch the video - 3) Feel that it is only going to last a year because it was not done according to a purists standard .... blah blah blah. In Short, this will work perfectly for this type of job and will last many years on bumper type surfaces. Much more economical than the $800 to $1200 job from a body shop. Their rates are horrendous. Good job on the video.
and the reality is that it will last one year sorry for you and your dreams man
@@Julesvale - Not so fast there Jules ... That is dependent on many factors. There are lots of folks doing this online - just look at so you tubers and you will see. Check out B is for Build, Chrisfix, Ammo and Tavarish ... completely doable at home with aerosol. Anyone who says differently either works in the industry and is trying to protect the overpriced nature of "paint and body" shops in general or has some other bias. Show me proof.
@@gosh7001 well was lazy to explain but lets do this ofc if you run your car once in a while it will last ofc if your car is in a garage maybe it'll last more than one year but all that depend on many conditions like where you live etc the weather also like if you're near some salty water well you better dont do that.
The reason is that first if it goes away you cant repair again and 2nd that if it's sanded with impuroities just as the video the last layer will go off pretty easily but not only where you have fixed it will expand to aln your car if done badly this is the problem
@@Julesvale That is very much correct ... I agree with you there ... it will last much longer in a more controlled working environment like a DIY paint booth, while also sanding and using tack at proper times. Warming the supplies and applying paint to a warm surface (80 - 100 F) will also go along way towards more longevity. Drying the surface area after, polishing and then protecting with a sealant will quadruple the lifespan. So there are many factors that increase the longevity of DIY Paint Jobs. It really is up to the individual to to their own due diligence that will yield the best results according to the region they live in.
Did you paint the hole thing or just where your primed🥴 dident get that, and what do you do about the spot where the old paint meets the new? Great work btw👌
Going through your video I knew Im not gonna go through steps on my car (rather leave the scrach there 😅) but kept watching as your job was so professional and satisfying to watch 😊
