  • @sailorf21
    @sailorf21 3 роки тому +58

    I have to give you full credit. I do metal finish for restorations BUT on a cheap car, what I learned in 40 years of work was that you need to match the repair to the car. I do a '3 year repair' for cars that I am certain will not make it beyond that time (usually because the owner will kill the car). I got over all snobbishness of a quality repair when a guy brought me an old Volvo 122 that had crappy body work from a PO. I asked him what was the longest he had ever owned a vehicle (in perspective, I have a 1970 Land Rover I bought in 1989 - and own to this day). He said he sells them in 2 years or less. He wanted it looking nice, painted inside and out (to 'look' like a full restoration he said). Well, 2K later and it left with the cheapest smoothed over rust repairs (but great paint) I ever did. He called me three months later and said he crashed the car. He got full insurance payment for it. Sometimes cheap is okay. Sometimes "good enough" is okay. Knowing when those times are takes experience. Not everyone has a shop and metal working tools - and not every car is a restoration project requiring metal finish. So - full points and credit for what you did here. You matched your skills to the car to reality; and made the car look better.

  • @atomicslam1589
    @atomicslam1589 2 роки тому +32

    Wow....great job for never having done that before. Had that paint matched that would've turned out really well. I think that given the times we live in, and the fact that when it comes to auto work, it seems like EVERYONE is getting screwed (and the job STILL isn't getting done properly).....that we're all learning that if we take the time to learn and invest in some tools, we can do this on our own. Even if we screw it up a few times while we're learning. I just learned how to replace a clutch, and that's nowhere NEARLY as complicated as I thought. DIY is the way to go. Buy a cheap project car like what you have, and that way if you mess it up while you're learning, you don't feel bad. Anyway, great video, and thanks for posting.

    He then packed Bondo around it.
    Fast forward a couple months later and he gets into a minor fender bender.
    The “ patch” broke open and a whole bag of cookies was rolling around the accident scene.

    Wax can take the clear coat off. Then just get the right color. Spray it again. Clear again. Good job. I think it will always rust again. Cut the cost down just use regular Bondo. Don't cut away as much as you did. Just take the bubbles off leave the rust behind.. spray rust restore and leave it two days. Then apply mesh with jbweld behind to bring closer to outer surface. Then just apply regular Bondo. Prime leave for two weeks to harden of course do this in above 70° weather. After two weeks sand put on finishing putty sand with 1000 grit then paint. Leave first coat for four hours. Then second coat. Then clear. Wallah it will last for two years. Rust will come bay. Because there is just around the outside. Light sanding. Reapply paint

Sanded it flat. Then I applied 2 coats of bondo. Sanded flat. I can kick it as hard as I want, and the bondo didn't even crack. Solid as a rock, and water-proof. BullyBilly.

    But I was super intimidated to fix because I’d have to basically rebuild a part of it like you had to. This video had some great advice. Will definitely keep some beer cans handy. Thanks man!

    Depending on the age of the vehicle & how much it had been exposed to the sun, the new paint may not have matched the old due to paint fade, even if the color code for the new paint was correct. I had the same color issue with a touch-up pen that I used on my old car (at 8yrs), even after I washed the whole vehicle. I wonder if applying a new clear coat to the repair area & waxing the surrounding existing finish would have helped(?). That aside, great video, & I appreciated the tip about the fiberglass mat. I went with metal mesh & the fg cloth instead; just had to clean up cloth strands, but def not so frustrating. 👍

    You did not give this your all, that being said I have always tried with many worse results! ### Glad you tried and even asked for help;) you did a good job, but more credit to you for just trying!!! That is step #1 and step #1 = everything, all that matters. well done!💪
