    People don't seem to realize that producing paints with color consistency is nearly impossible. Great video, rust prevention is really important.

    Great vid, very helpful. What do you do if your paint came out patchy after sanding? Also, I've seen people use polish after sanding? Will that help? Thanks from Japan

    Tip: Mix the white base with the clearcoat, then apply 2 or 3 final coats on top. It will match. Also, use 1000 grit min. 400/600

    hey there, can you tell me where i can find the materials that you have used to repair the paints? i am from Canada. So the direct link of Amazon or any reference would be appreciated

    Once the surrounding clear gets decontaminated it'll look better. Back of the car is usually covered in dirt and brake dust.

    I am working on a similar sized repair on the hood of a customer's car. I'm a detailer not a body repair guy. Color is white like in your video and the paint touch up I got from the dealer is not a good match. My repair is level with the surrounding paint, I used clear after dry, but the clear did not level well at all. This made me decide to wet sand the clear, but even after a full 24 hours to cure, the clear flakes off as I try to sand. Have tried twice. Any advice? The paint alone does not have enough shine especially right on the front of the hood, it really stands out.

  • @DigitalHabit

    Your paint code is under the QR code on the manufactur sticker, yours is 8624 - Olympic White

  • @kevkav5680

    Very good instruction video, I think if you had finished off machine polishing the area , it would have been even better!

  • @MegaTombs

    wouldn't it be better to have used filler primer on that before you did the paint to build that up better.

  • @Rabbit.760

    That surface that youre scuffing, i could swear is the E coat... but im here because i dont know that much

  • @jameshenderson5385

    Never take anything to the dealership(stealership).
