How to do a blow in/smart repair 

+Justin Johnson thanks so much haha!!

+Steve Janka thanks brother!!

+richiet74 love you bro!

Good job well done. Basically what your saying is only use top coat on the repair area, not on the blend area? On the repair you used 500 then 800 and so on... In the blend area rather than using 1000 could you not of used 3000 all the way to the blend area?!?

Yes !

+Andy Smartrepairpro thanks so much brother!!!!!!! Much love!!!

+360SKETCH did you watch the video my friend ? I used spray max priner and blender 😀😀

+William Nickels thanks so much man!!! It's called spray max it's my favorite blender! I use it with all clear coats

I think i understand know. it is used to help the clear coat not so much the base. and your welcome.

+Roy Butko I'm going to have them soon on my website

3000 until where I'm going to apply the blender

There is no way of telling but should be few hours and you should be good!

Thank you so much for the reply I just didn't want to peel off the tape and ruin the work Thanks again

Finishmaster will have it

Not sure brother I have never used what you are using so you know more than I do. You don't have to use blending solvent for base though just for clear

+utbolgt2 thank you!!!

+zay gomez hey brother I usually look at the chips and go from there. I have a playlist on white pearls you might find helpful. I rarely tint them but just look for the best chip. But if you are having issues with it beeing to bright you can leave half of the white out if the formula and go from there.

I have found that the red variant matches the base really well, done quite a few of those, red variant has always worked

Zay, check your specials. There are some good variants in there. Also, you may want to spray 800J over g3 instead of g1 g shade. Can help the ground coat from being too light.

Thanks ! Sata vision 5099

+Daniel Green haha we have always had the green 3M tape that's all we have ever used. Prime wash it's a deegreser we use it's made by caksco

I would not do that my friend I don't think is a good idea

I haven't had any issues with spraymax 1k blender

+thakrazyone it's called spray max I put the part number in the description

Try it haha

+Ricardo Gonzalez thanks my bro!

+spencer moon the tape is 3M but you can purchase the tape thing at www.collisionedge.com

oh cool never seen the green but it seemed sturdy cheers gabe ill make some tape carriers tommorow ive got lots of super strong magnets and pipe ect ect.. at my workshop im a bit of a mad inventer great idea! shame about ye batteries going on the vid i dont often get results as good as that with the blender and that stuff is my bread and butter ye talented git! hahaa always looking to improve my technique,s cheers have a great day buddy!

+spencer moon awesome man!!!! 😊😊😊

ha haa brilliant gabe i wish you lots of peace and loadsa happiness this chrismas my cyber buddy !!!!

+spencer moon thanks my friend like wise to you!!!

+MrFireman164 right yeah. Blender helps with that

No it doesn't... the blend area returns because the clear melter/blender solvent has no UV protection. It will fail sooner or later. Do not do a repair like this if you work at a shop that has a lifetime guarantee. This is how you repair a 15 year old junk car in a driveway. Not the way a newer benz should be repaired. Turnout great, but it will end up failing over time.

+fwh79 yes sir! Thanks for the comment! The customer is always right.

You're welcome. I hear ya man... been in the industry for 20 years, painting for the last 14 years now. Gotta love the... shop management, owner(s), fellow employees, insurance companies, customers, paint or material reps, missing time on the sheets, insanely low labor rates (by the way... I love how used paint thinner is classified as "hazardous waste"... where is my HAZARD PAY??? Keep breathing that poison!), being told I can "make it up in volume" when I explain that there is not enough repair time on a sheet, hearing about how a customer has run out of their rental and need their car back asap (like it's my fault that they didn't get rental coverage... way to be an adult customer with no rental coverage), cycle time, MATERIAL COSTS (I don't set the pricing on materials... sorry guys, I just paint the car), how I need to come in early and stay late (which bodymen almost never do, which is also usually WHY the shop needs me to stay late. Bodymen love to bring cars over on thursday and friday so... I can just stay late to make up for their short comings concerning time management while they go home to their families at 5:00), and all the other things you can't control/constantly lose money on that are not your fault, even though everyone thinks it is. Oh yeah... and you have to have the artistic TALENT to paint a car without messing it up on top of all of that! You did a great job in this video and I hope you are being taken care of where ever you work. Happy holidays to you and your family and good luck to you in 2018. Sorry about my rant... this industry really knows how to make my blood boil some times. I'm sure you and many of your subs know exactly what I'm talking about. But hey guys... any monkey can paint a car.

+fwh79 HAHAHA oh man I glad you can let it all out man! We got to focus on the things we CAN control and kick butt that's for sure!! Merry Christmas brother!!😊😊😊

1k spray max blender

+Lupe Villarreal on the side of the bumper it pretty durable few years in my opinion. If the sun is beating up on it then not long

MOTIVATED PAINTERS thank you for the info and super fast reply I know you try and get to all of your questions. I dread the day you cannot keep up..

+Lupe Villarreal haha me too my friend me too 😢

I don't like them they are torx and I use PPG sex350 as water cleaner

+barney dog 1k spray max blender it's called

Spray max 1k spot blender

+Chuck Cardot I try my friend it try you have no idea

+MOTIVATED PAINTERS I know, I just wanna be able to see all that you are doing. you have some great tips, can't wait to try them tomorrow at my shop.

+MOTIVATED PAINTERS what is the blender you use? I use the one choice and I actually hate how it works and looks. I will definitely order the stuff you use tomorrow if my jobber has it.

Thank you!!!

You can but you will not get the best results

Wow thanks for the quick reply, you’re awesome! The whole car is wet-sanded to 2000G and the blend will be sanded to match, then compounded together. Should I bother with blending spray at all? Thx so much for your valuable time..!

Yes you should but you can always do a test panel on an old part and see how it would work

I couldn’t get blend spray so I used reducer with your technique, it worked out really well and will finish perfectly. Also I never thought to purposely blow away from the repair with both base and clear, what a difference! Thanks again man

Exacto!!!!

+kevin hekers you bet !😀

Nope you can clean very well and clear up to you 1000 and 3000 then blender

@@MOTIVATEDPAINTERS thanks. My edge looked good until it started to dry. Can it be wet sanded and buffed?

Yes unless you got base overspray. It won't polish perfect

@@MOTIVATEDPAINTERS what grit sandpaper would you recommend sanding it with?

3000

3m

Thanks a lot !! I'll make another video !

As for that magnate tool tape from where we can buy it ??????

+Alane Atika I don't understand your question my friend

+Alane Atika you can buy it from www.collisionedge.com

I mean when the camera goes speed I don’t know where u stop base coat and where u stop line pland and clear coat

Hahahahaha

Adam Joel Only a master painter would accidentally take a time lapse video at the most important part 😆

Glad you watched 🥰🥰🥰

+Jaime Rodriguez hahahaha ✌ magic!

Video purposes and not everyone will have the luxury of "doing it right" thanks for the feedback in so glad you watched the video 😀

Look at the small repair playlist I have it might help
