That's exactly what I'm trying to do! Appreciate the feedback

Tried this Technique on a pretty peppered side panel today. I was sceptic at first, but it did work well - I’d say 70% less rockchips visible. Thank you!

You do the same as me good old fashion old school tricks, good to see the old school tricks being kept alive, nice one 👍

Love all your videos. They give me the drive, confidence and know how to tackle stuff on my own car. Keep them coming and keep up the amazing work!

These methods of yours are fantastic for us mere mortals to have a go at! BRILLIANT work mate!

A massive thanks to you for posting this - I tried this for the first time on my Missano red MK1 Audi TT earlier today on the bonnet and front bumper. Was initially terrified but it’s worked a treat! I used G3 and Menzerna compounds and a ceramic Hybrid Solutions Polish. Am extremely grateful to you and will now tackle a few other imperfections the same way 👍🏼

Great video, simple snd concise steps. It gave me the confidence to do some significant road rash repair work to my front bumper and bonnet. It has made such a visual difference.

Great work geez! Already subbed! Dyou think this is pretty safe in terms of not taking too much off your clear coat as youre pretty much just buffing the fresh coat of paint off and probably barely taking any off the factory clear. What you reckon? Could this be done a fair few times? Reason I ask is Ive used some of your other videos to fill up, wet sand and buff a couple deep chips and I can still see a little bit of a dip in the paint where the chips were so I thought I could use this tekkers to level off that last bit. But obviously I've already wet sanded and compounded the area so dont want to risk taking off too much clear coat! Appreciate your help mate! Keep up the good work! Best paint technician on youtube! 💪

Can you explain how the stone chips came through the ppf as a few comments on here last similar similar to this question.. did the stone chips go through your ppf into the body paintwork

Nice. Works this on Silver?

Very impressed 👀👌

Great work as always on your channel. You have quite short videos that cover the topic of the day. Subscribed about 3 months ago. You explained greatly that a rotating tool is better than a DA. But as I'm not living in UK and are not very fond of the new shipping/import fees - I have to buy paint kit from elsewhere. Would it not be better to mix with the paint with a hardener? Otherwise wouldn't the paint go off when using a degreaser? (I use alkaline but also petroleum based degreaser during winter).

@cvrpov

Hi Martin thanks for the comments. Maintenance wise it might be a good idea to seal the area with a ceramic or something similar. Wiping solvents over any touched in area 'could' lead to some tarnishing of the paint as you mention. The paint being base alone seems to hold up to general washing and pressure washing in my experience

How long do you have to wait between putting on the paint and buffing it off?

brilliant mate !

I just realized he said the chips are in the PPF, the very film that is supposed to stop paint chips. lol

I thought PPF was supposed to be "self healing" like they get a little heat on it and it heals the rash right away? But if not, then it's like, what's the point of PPF? So when the PPF installers replace the damaged area, isn't that covered under the "10 year" or whatever warranties they give you? And how many times will they do this? In any case - what you did seems a lot easier and less expensive than dealing with PPF or detailers. Could do this on your own. Thanks!

Now stick some mudflaps on they help a lot!!

At 4:32 it looks very poor. All of the lower area chips are as bad as before anything was done. Poor solvent paint adhesion is 100% from poor surface prep and poor application, not the diameter of the chips. Allowing the paint to cure would make the polishing easier without fouling the polishing pad.
