You helped me paint my fender and came out great! Glad you're doing more garage videos for us non pros! Please keep it up!

I want to thank you for all the videos you put out. Your detailed videos gave me the confidence to tackle my 95 mustang this winter. I had lots of little areas of scratches, chips and even where some A-hole keyed my fender. Your suggestions led to paint job I can live with.

I really like that you're straight up about not even doing this on a 5-6 year. Honesty that this isn't a perfect looking or permanent repair is really good to see.

Hi Brian, that was so helpful, I really appreciate why blending the clearcoat is so important to a near invisible repair ! Blessings from the U.K. my friend! 🇬🇧

One thing you might want to include when using those spray max 2K cans is that once you pop that internal canister, you’ve got about 36 hours before that can is a brick. I know you used the Eastwood version, but it’s the same thing. There’s a company called Car Rep that has a 2K clear with “infinite” shelf life. It uses the moisture in the air to cure.

Awesome work as always Brian I'm so glad there are guys like you showing these simple repairs and explaining where they have a value and place in are industry as a mobile painter we get a lot of negative comments about are work methods alot of ppl just don't understand value comes in many forms some ppl value high quality top notch repairs and other ppl value fast convenient and affordable repairs even if there not the best. as there are lots of cars out there that need some work but it just doesn't make sense to spend a lot on them your videos are great at showing ppl there are alternatives that may be just what they need.

You are definitely a maestro sir, paint guns and rattle cans. Maestro. Perfecto!

Nice. Does look good.

My 2009 Vibe GT was repainted. I’ve had to touch up my hood about 100 times. Looks great in bad lighting decent in daylight. Would love to learn minor dent repair.

Love the notes at the end! Is there any way we could get some counseling on repairs? For example I have some road rash on the side skirts and I'm not sure how to address that.

Outstanding video for my 2011 RAV4 with 190,000 miles on it and a few chips that I can't stand. The chips are in areas that can't be isolated to one body panel - I want to fix one of the front pillars, not the whole roof that it's welded to. And most painting videos give advice to paint an entire section that *can* be isolated. Thanks for this video!

Nice.

Helpful video, are you going to do a review using the apollo P6 I see on the bench, I saw the last review with the p5

I really like the UV filler idea, but haven't been able to find it around, just online.

It takes time but ive used a match an filled in the chip with paint and build it up then dab clear and wet sand

Great video! Just bought a 2022 Chevy Malibu that had only 43,000 miles on it. There are some chips in the paint on the bumper, which aren't horrible, but they bother me. What would you suggest that I do to get them removed since my car isn't that old?

Can you make a video breakdown of selecting primers/base coat/clear coats for a project? Like what keywords to look for, and what to ignore (i.e. urethane primer, dtm sealers / high solids clear / "euro" clear / etc)

Nice vid, as usual! Could you tell us approx what rpm you’re using on the rotary?

Brian, you da man! Love the videos. Question for you, would this work with metallic paint that has those tiny flakes (light beige color)? I'm trying to do this on a range rover that has overall good paint but want to get it in a nice enough stage to be able to sell it. doable or better to go to a pro?

Not bad good for small touch ups

Hey Brian just I have a question.Going to paint my 2011 Silverado and I’ve taken some spots to the metal and filled the dents with filler and sanded them out.Rest of the paint is in good condition but just old and dingy.Question is do I just use like a 600 grit and knock the clear coat off and then paint or do I need to primer the whole truck.Any info would be greatly appreciated?Love the channel.

Brian what electric orbital sander did you use?

Nice technique sir. How does that blend look in the sun

Brian, what would you do for spot surface rust that's part of a larger area being painted? I live in Hawaii. If I don't cover the sanded metal area with primer right away the rust will come right back.It's a smaller spot and part of a larger area that's not ready for primer yet. Is there a special spray to just stop the rust & treat the area until I have a day, no wind or rain, to finish the rest of the job? This is with rattle cans. Mahalo Nui Loa

Was that the Bauer long throw polisher?

Bought 2 oz jar of Grand Prix white for my 1982 911. The paint is too thick. Any recommendations for where to get small quantities of reducer to thin it?

i have a 2008 bmw 328xi and the roof paint is cooked from arizona UV so i’m going to try this way to at least make it look better

If you’re doing this on a lower part of a bumper do you recommend clear coating the whole bumper to reduce the change of that line coming back as the clear coat would be more even and thicker?

That csi works really well, but it loves a brand new damp wool pad. No further polishing needed once it heats up

Hi brian. Just a quick question. Can you please tell me how long does it take to paint a full car normally? Thank you.

Dumb question but what do I do if it is a newer car? I've got stone chips on the bonnet of a white Mazda6. I've heard the Mazda white colours are nightmares for repair. Do you recommend forking out the extra cash for a professional respray/blend? Cheers.

I have a 7 year old mazda cx-5 with one or two chips that have rust in them. Want to fix it myself so I can learn. Do you have a video on the touchup repair?

Hello , can I use the 2000 then 3000 wet sand to remove a semi hard clear coat line for blending into the rest of panel? Then compound or polish? Thanks

Nice! I will definitely use this on my racecar…not on my new car! 🤣🤣🤣

How long can you keep the clear coat can after the bladder has been popped?

All that work for a couple of spots. I would have taken the easy way and just painted the spots and clear coated it. But nice job and very well explained. Nice garage too. That helps.

Do you have a video on repainting an old roof top that is starting to show rust? It’s my 2007 Ford F-150, and I’d like to do my own repaint job to it, because I’m not worried about it being perfect, I just don’t want it to completely rust on me.

Hello Brian, Do you do video chat consultations Thanks

another great video.Enjoyed this one Brian

yeah start with rotary then finish it with rotary, sandit with machine, such a DIY :D how mucch cost to have those tools? 2k usd?

Can that clear coat be used again later, or is it once and done?

That was awesome! I just picked up a daily driver Scion that needs the hood and roof re-cleared. The clear has fogged and looks dry but isn’t chipping or cracking, I’m gonna try scuffing and spraying it with 2k clear. Any tips?

@PaintSociety

Scuff with 600 grit. Clean it well and then spray.

Excellent work and lesson. I am curious on a couple things. I see you using the eastwood 2k clear when you are doing aerosol work. Have you used the spray max 2k glamour before? Thats what i currently am using and am curious if the Eastwood is better or the same. The other question is what was the electric DA you used when you blended with the 1500? Thank you for your time and like maby others , i appreciate your excellent work and clear description with all your videos. It has certainly helped me take my work to the next level.

Hey how do you know what sand paper to use?

What electric da sander were you using?

i have a question why does sometimes basecoat have patterns after 3-4 days thats being painted. the patterns look like lets say you clean a wet panel with the rag and the texturw of the rag is left when you do that. now thats what i see on a freshly painted panel and i want to know why that happens
