  • So it’s bound to happen at some point. Unless you keep your car locked away, you’re bound to get a rock ding or scratch. Well in this video, we give some basics on how to touch it up and keep your car looking it’s best. We have the 21 Highlander, but this is the same process for most any make or model. If this is your first time here, see something you like?? Like, subscribe and leave a comment. I try to respond to all comments and questions. Thanks for dropping by the RWG.

    I was informed its better to use the 040 as the base coat, then 070, and 00C clear. Wet sand with 2000 is the best way.

      You answered my question.
      If I had to guess I would have used the smaller number first

    I just want to say I enjoyed the video I have that same problem with my 22 Highlander

      It sucks for sure. I wish I’d had my son install PPF ( paint protection film) he works at a wrap shop.

    Chrisfix has a great video on how to remove a deep scratch like this one. It doesn't look that difficult at all.

    • @RealWorldGarage

      This one was all the way to the plastic that the grill shell is made of.

      Yeah, he has 2 videos. One of them being a clear coat scratch and one being all the way down to the bear metal which is the same process as if it was on a plastic bumper cover like in your video.
      Here is the video of him repair a scratch down to the bear metal:

    Nice video. My tube, the same as yours, was very watery with little color.

    You only paid $12 for yours; earlier this month I paid over $18 for mine at the dealership in Tucson, AZ.

      AZ is crazy with prices on everything. Highest inflation in the country over the last year.

    Nice job. Does this touch up need a clear coat after?

    • @RealWorldGarage
      @RealWorldGarage  2 місяці тому

      No, I believe this touch up paint is lacquer, not a 2 stage.

    Hey I know Im a little late to the party but where should I go to purchase some of that blizzard pearl 070? I have an old 470 that needs some touchups? Should I just go to a lexus or toyota dealer or do you know a reputable place online?

    • @RealWorldGarage
      @RealWorldGarage  Рік тому

      I’d start at the dealer. Most paint stores should be able to mix you some as well. But the dealer is where I’d start. Thanks for watching and commenting!!

    Hello. Is WD40 good for cleaning a rock chip since it gets rid of rust also? Thank you.

    • @RealWorldGarage
      @RealWorldGarage  Рік тому +2

      Only if you don’t plan to touch it up. Paint doesn’t like to stick to oils. Wd is good for removing road Tars gently from paint. Thanks for watching and commenting!!

    looks like a crappy job.. you can see the repair

    • @RealWorldGarage
      @RealWorldGarage  3 місяці тому +1

      Well yeah this is a 10$ tube of touch up paint. You can carefully wet sand and buff this repair down. It’s better than leaving the rock chip and seeing the black bumper plastic. You want professional paint correction you’re going to pay hundreds or more
