Welcome everyone, My name is Michael and I have been doing collision repair for 12 years! I would say I am more old school and a minimalist when it comes to what i do but i am fast and efficient! Many people would say im a butcher or whatever you want to call it because I don't do things "By the Book" but when you are doing 10-20 repairs a week for auction it is what it is! But i think my work is decent for the time i put into things. By no means do I think I am the best and in the collision repair world you can learn something new every day!

Does your booth not work?
It does. I just let it draft out by itself most the time though. Comes out cleaner since my floor is dirty atm haha but if I have the booth cleaned I’ll run the fan.
But papers free
No it definitely is not. Paper cost more than a roll of overspray plastic
Did you just wipe over holes?
There was just one pin hole but it won’t cause an issue. I use to drill and dent pull everything and wipe right over and years later still no issue.
That’s a good problem to have my guy
Yes sir! Appreciate the comments 👍🏼
It’ll buff out
It did 👍🏼
Who said you can’t tape everything.🫡
I use to put paper all around but noticed fuzz coming off.
Moisture stuck underneath and just like that when you bake it poof blow out💣
It’s actually a mosquito there haha
That needed a blend, if the repair is within 18in of the next panel needs a blend.
Probably should have skimmed it with fiberglass first with what looked like a hole and what looked like dents still not hating just constructive criticism.
There was a small pin whole that won’t effect anything. I use to drill and dent pull everything if u look at my longer videos and have done that for many years and it doesn’t give me an issue. Have cars I’ve repaired years ago that still look great. But in some cases I do put Duraglass.
@@Basicbodyrepairguy video doesn’t do it justice I get it, been a body man myself over 15 years, and still doing it. Keep up showing how it’s done.🫡
@@abrahamyerena932 yeah video is so hard to show stuff. Trying to figure out better angles haha. Yeah I been around it most of my life and ended up following after my grandfather and father in the trade.
What's the blue component he mixes into the body filler? (I'm totally ignorant when it comes to body work but I find it interesting)
It’s an activator. A gallon of body filler comes with a 4oz tube of it. Doesn’t take much. The more blue the filler the faster it hardens. The less blue the slower. Can also make a mistake and put to much or too little and it will not dry at all!
You go boyyy
Thanks pal
Goddamn them are some craters
Nothing a skim coat can’t fix. Just the first coat anyway. 👍🏼
So. How did you make it stick through the paint?😅
Aren't they stuck on with a glue gun? 😮
I ground down to metal in the places I welded it. You just can’t see it because I’m not stripping the whole panel for no reason.
@@Basicbodyrepairguy I know....
Cool. Didnt see any grind marks.
@@user-tl9bl9hj3f no worries it just looks like a shadow under the wire is why. Thanks for commenting 👍🏼 I will do some closer up videos in the future.
Arabayı mahvettin :(( Artık sol çamurlukta bir sürü delik ve kalın bi macun tabakası var :((
It’s far from ruined. The repair will last a long time 😊
any plan of doing an LED up grade？We produce LEDs for auto and would like to collaborate with you
I actually have a truck that I planned on upgrading my lights to LED. Please message me at BasicBodyRepairGuy on Facebook
Good job 👌👌👌
Thank you
A word of advice from a body and paint tech of over thirty years.. You seem to have an eye for straightness in body panels and I recommend you start learning PDR (Paintless Dent Repair).. If the paint is still intact on the dented panel(s) with no flaking, you can do PDR to repair the panel/fender and be done.. Instead of drilling holes, use glue stick, tab(s) and puller to work the dent out.. Rubbing alcohol will take the glue off.. The metal is very easy to calculate when you use a line board to read the metal and have precision to bring the metal back into shape. After all, metal body panels do hold memory and you can bring it back to 99.9% straightness with PDR.. Car dealers are using PDR techs in their lots on vehicles now and have been.. Check out some videos on it.. Hope this helps you further your skills..
I’ll look into it thank you!
@@Basicbodyrepairguy You're welcome! Here are some examples of what can be done with PDR to give you a better idea - ua-cam.com/video/vE4EtafqRww/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/2s7WZr7W_3A/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/WGCnC0GGMfo/v-deo.html
My only issue is I’ve seen pdr guys say that a dent like that takes 12 hours. I had 4 hours in working time in my repair. Minus dry time of course. For the amount of work I have to do a week PDR is just to slow in my case. But I do see where if I did have the time it would be good. But I will definitely look into the tabs for pulling the dents out some. Thank you.
@@Basicbodyrepairguy Many jobs can be finished in parking lots while the customer is shopping in the store.. I guarantee that the dent you were working on is no 12 hour job, just saying.. It's all about the level of experience.. The fender you have is easy to work with and the costs involved to repair it is minimal.. Compared the costs taken into account as far as your overhead on that job- You have electric, body filler, body filler paper board, masking tape, sandpaper, air compressor, primer/thinner, paint/reducer, clear/ reducer/hardener, plastic car cover plus labor time.. Also the quality of work being done should be taken into factor..
@@ecarroll3723 just depends on person cause as of now I will be faster just repair and paint because I simply don’t have the time to learn PDR good enough to be better than my body repair. If that makes sense.

Your joking do it once do it right
Must not have watched the whole video. Nothing wrong with how I repaired it because this is how all cars use to be fixed. So tell me you just aren’t skilled enough to fix it and move on. 👍🏼
Shame no more tradesman left with pride to do the job right very few remain not your fault just no training to do it right.Look at coldwarmotors@@Basicbodyrepairguy
@@adamheazlett1179What did he do wrong? Genuinely curious.
@jonrice21 it’s because I repair things the “old school” way. But don’t worry I won’t be doing much more like that I finally bought a 400$ machine that spot weld and pulls the damage.
@@Basicbodyrepairguy well good on you for learning from even the rude comments left by some of these people. There are two types of people, those who think they know it all and those who are willing to adapt. Good luck with your business in the future and keep up the good work!
Lol dude you should title this “why you don’t paint your car with spray paint”
Imagine commenting on something that you probably know nothing about 😂
@@Basicbodyrepairguy actually I m a certified cerakote painter top rated on the east coast..
@@TaserTheSnake then you should have noticed that wasn’t spray paint but rubberized bedliner made specifically for that type of application. Not come and try to insult someone.
@@Basicbodyrepairguy you sprayed the door area dude 🤦♂️
@@TaserTheSnake if you read comments I explained why. Idk what it is with people but you do realize it can be wiped off with solvent? Something you of all people should know. Lol
I was stuck on the door, not matching the body so much to see the overspray
That’s what happens when you keep the doors off it till you go to sell it and the rest gets faded 😂
U oversprayed the rocker panel 🙄
Don’t worry I cleaned it off lol. Dropped my cardboard on that spot. 🤷🏻♂️
😮 Even I jumped when that Block flew wildly 😊. Great job on that fender
Yeah I about smack myself a few times a day! Thanks for the comment!
I would have pulled the fender off and used a body hammer and got that dent out before I drilled all those holes in it but that’s your project.
Yeah but the time that takes I would have been halfway through the repair. I only had 2 hours of working time in the WHOLE job from start to finish including painting. Only thing I didn’t record was dry time. But thanks for commenting!
Bro you did a good job most of these people hating on here wouldn't even know how to pull that dent out
Appreciate that!
I do this for a living and work in a production shop. I'm not going to talk shit about you drilling holes. Get a spot welder tho bro. Its way less work in the long run. Also wear a respirator. This stuff will give you cancer and nerve damage sooner than later.
Yeahhhh I’m bad about not wearing it. I have a respirator just get painting and don’t even think about it. But I’ll try better! Thanks
Omg you actually drilled holes and pulled it . Than put it on film for others to see. That’s 1970s car lot work .
It’s the old school way and how I was taught. And it all comes out just as good so idk if car lot work was a insult or what 😂👍🏼 find another shop that does 10 a week with one guy doing all the work even with the fancy tools lol
@@Basicbodyrepairguy That’s someone’s pride and joy. Now it’s going to be a rusty turd full of filler. Order a fender or get behind the damage and push it out. My goodness
@@bstevermer9293 nothing wrong with how I did it. Repairs have been done this way and still are for a very long time. Its called business. Time I had repairing this is cheaper then time I would have had to put a fender. Don’t get me wrong. If it’s a insurance job or a customer coming in for a repair I would have put a fender 100%. But when I’m doing 10 repairs a week minimum that are going right back to auction sometimes this is how it goes. The repair will last a long time either way.
Thats magical
No one understands how, they just see what they see and accept it. I don’t have clear coat or a spray gun, but I understand. The scratches formed with the grit paper are actively filled in, smoothed over and magnified, giving the headlight its factory sheen. Or you can just buy new headlights, that look cool.
You can also do this with rattle cam clear. Don’t need a spray gun.
Good job👌👌👌
Thank you!
are you serious
What is wrong?
Icing a cake.. not baking one.
Touché
You did amazing bro. I’m currently getting into doing my own bodywork/paint, in hopes that I can get good enough at it to start doing it as a side hustle. Keep up the good work my man 💪🏽💪🏽👍🏽
Appreciate that! Keep in touch with me I’m a open book and have done almost all you shouldn’t so I can figure almost all problems out you may have!
Nice job
修理のために穴を開けるなんて猿が修理してるのか？
I don’t understand
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice video
Thanks
Sure
👍👍
Wow... Thats amazing.. Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Cheers!
Hahaha
Sounds right huh 😂
Bondo on plastic 😂
You definitely can put bondo (body filer) on plastic. 😂
Nothing like using drywall filler to fix a car lol 😂
That’s definitely not drywall filer 😂 but may have to test that out 🤷🏻♂️
@@Basicbodyrepairguy definitely is drywall filler
Whatever makes you happy lol
@tl7538 I think that's just a really thick Bongo. It does look like it has The texture of wall putty.
@@kentuckyboy.92 I promise it’s bondo 😂
Could anybody else smell that?
Love the smells of a body shop.
Hey bud.. Just a tip.. Less is more.. And your shaver isn't meant to be pressed down that hard... Its made for Edges and high spots
In terms of time. More is less. I handled majority of my low spots in one coat and just needed a few skim coats to finish. And whatever the tool is “made for” it seems to work the ways I use it. Bumper is also moving so much because it’s loose underneath. Thanks for commenting 👍🏼
I've never in my life seen someone cheese grade on a bumper... This is not done in professional shops.
You can cheese grade on anything lol it’s a tool to knock bondo down. What are you scared to scratch the bumper? It’s going to be fixed on the following coats of bondo anyway. And a “professional” shop would have took 3 days to repair not half a day. 👍🏼 I have a full repair video on page go check it out. Also another coming today.
Love that people think a new bumper cover is more practical lol if you’re getting it paint matched you’re paying at the minimum a few hundred dollars for the part and paint, then you still gotta take it apart and replace damaged sensors and all that 😂
Exactly! Doing this I just repair and blend the paint and it still matches like factory to the quarter panels. Thanks for the comment! 👍🏼
It's too bad you have to waste all that material
At 15$ a gallon it’s cheaper than time. Thanks for commenting!
@@Basicbodyrepairguy good point I was just thinking it's too bad there's no way for you to recycle it so you could use it again
@@James-nh9kj I wish there was but with how cheap it is almost a hassle to try to 😂
“Tell me when”
Why not just put a new bumper cover on there?
Cheaper to repair and faster turn around. Total repair to paint time I’ll have in it is 2 hours minus dry time. Would be days before a new bumper to come. Thanks for the comment!
Lol imagine the half assed paint job that follows after 2 hours of the cheese grader
@@Thejohnson1750 actually came out good. Cheese grater is just a tool to speed the process of course I used sanding blocks and primer and such. Feel free to watch one of my full repair videos on my page and you will see. 👍🏼
