I could see that the top of the door was a bit bluer, but that also could of been that the primer may have what we call bleed thru, giving it a lighter or bluer appearance. Basically you may not have got it covered with the color enough. It could also be that the color was not agitated good enough to. (Shake it for 5 mins)

Finally showing the actual process instead of skipping/editing it. Because when we try at home, and we get what doesn't look to be the shiny clear mirror finish, we get discouraged. Good to see what it looks like "mid-way" to see what we have to do to get the end. Honestly, turned out A LOT better than I thought it would. This should be OK for most people who don't care for show-quality, just want the unsightly clear coat peel gone...

Great video. A modification I would make is getting the paint code and going to a paint store where they can factory match and put in an aerosol can. The results would be about as perfect as one could expect. The one variable is this existing paint is OLD and pearls are very hard to match. Also def be aware that 2K has isotopes that will KILL you. Wear a appropriately rated respirator whenever you spray 2k paints/clears. Stuff is no joke!

Nice work, and I like your honest assessment of the repair at the end. You can tell there is a difference in the old and new paint, but it looks very good overall. My only criticism is - don't spray 2K products without a cartridge respirator and goggles, at a minimum! That stuff has toxic solvents that can mess your nervous system up.

Forty-four years ago my younger brother repainted my '70 Mercury Capri using a sprayer that attached to the exhaust port of a vacuum cleaner. He worked on it in his spare time and it took five weeks. Most of the time was spent preparing the vehicle to be painted. My brother more or less made me promise to not get antsy and want to look at it before he was finished. It turned out great. We still talk about it. My brother did a great job with the body preparation. This was all done in a time when cell phone cameras didn't exist. What gives me pause now is thinking about how _no one_ even thought to take a single photograph before or after so all I have are the memories of what the vehicle looked like before the job and afterwards.

Absolutely the best realistic DIY video of getting a goos finsih with readily available equipment and clear start to finish. This video genuinely helped me do my own DIY paint repair with great results.

Don’t do a mist coat just to finish the can on the last coat, that’s why you got orange peel. That’s the best 2k rattle can out there. If you spray it rite, you can get no orange peel. Glad to see someone actually doing the correct steps (Sand, prime, base, & clear coat).

Ditto on actually doing the correct steps, glad to see that. I've got to repair an area that was poorly done by someone else, clear flaked right off. I suspect that they attempted to spray the clear over the original base coat and I found out that clear needs to chemically bond to the base shortly after the base is sprayed for best results. Now I know that I have to go all the way back to primer for best adhesion...

Love your videos bro. I'm about to spray paint my driver's side door and fender for the first time and this video definitely boosted my confidence

Thank you so much for generously sharing this info, Hektor. It would have taken me endless trial and error for me to figure this out.👍

Finally! Someone gives a good presentation on how to fix clear coat with spray can! I watched so many bad videos on this topic before landing on this. After a few steps of trial and error and before I watched this, I did something similar. The results were equally impressive. The two steps I added were to use a polishing compound after the cutting compound and to wax as a final step. The polishing compound will give it an even better mirror like finish. And of course the wax will help protect the new paint job! Thank you for posting this Hektor!

Being able to use just off-the-shelf spray cans for a good finish like this is a true skill!

Awesome job on that for a DIY! I do mobile bodyshop work for a living and wanted to add two things: 1) you can get custom matched paint cans made for you at local paint shops. I get them for about $20 each when I need a color that I can’t easily make. They spray better and match better then Duplicolor. Larger cans too. 2). You can cut down on orange peel a huge amount amount by spraying the 2nd-last layer of clear much wetter, it’ll make the wet sand and polish process 10x easier. Most jobs don’t even need a polish when applied in that way. Great work and way to get out there and do stuff! Too much talk from most people.

Next time just check how many coats u need to put on for the base. Als the primer color matters as well. Some colors call for black primer because it will end up tinting the base color.

Excellent instructional video. I"m going to try this on my 2004 Civic. Thanks!

This video is really useful for people looking to repair and maintain their daily old beater, a cheap second hand car or a track machine that will get scuffed all the time. At the end of the day, in many cases you only need something that is functional, protects the metal and looks quite good. If you paid little for a vehicle or it is very old you won't probably go to a body shop and spend a fortune there. Thanks! Oh, btw, please use a respirator! That clear coat is very toxic!

What I did was I applied a basic black base for 3 coats (it was over light Grey primer) then did a final dust coat with the b92p. It was a very close match

Great job, Thanks Eric O. South main auto

Best to remove the door handle and belt moldings vs. tape them off. Why? The clear/color coat will lift where the frog tape met with the molding as there is no surface prep to hold it. Otherwise, this is a great alternative to professional body shop methods which simply revert to complete paint of doors. One alternative to the rattle can color coat. Get a pint of color matched paint from a local automotive paint shop. Heavy on the clear so it doesn't do this again. Looks better than it did and thats the important part.

I stumbled upon this video by accident. I watched and was very impressed. Homie you did the damn thing. Vato is putting in work.

Good information and results look great. I recommend changing the title a bit. Your not doing a clear coat repair, you repainted the panels. If the paint is still good you can sand/wet sand the bad clear off the panel and then just to a clear coat application to correct the clear coat on its own. Results are definitely better with new paint though so keep up the good work!
