That is the best scratch removal demo I’ve ever seen. I have one of those pens for filling stone chips and always felt it could be taken further for even better results. Great work!
@@Amddetailing Hey, considering metallic paints are harder to fill in due to the metallic itself, wouldn't be be also viable to spray with air brush and then fill with clear?
I’ve watched a lot of these types of repairs and you can understandably still see something under the lights when finished. This though is insane. Awesome result. Good work.
You can still see the whole line he filled in when he gets up and moves the angle @ 14:02. Also a tiny spot the paint didn't fill made it to the end. But honestly that's about as good as you can get these spot fills. The goal is to make it so that your eye doesn't get drawn to it and you don't notice it unless you already knew it was there
You see how detailed he is even when filming. Not to many detailed people out there. Im 40 and without any experience just my attention to detail and not to brag either but when i was 16 someone keyed my car. And i taught myself this method by using touchup paint. Tho i wish i would have had this video to reference to i managed to use compound to get rid of all the extra touchup which made it level enough for me being 16 and then, I polished and waxed and barely seen the scratch that was deep in my primer. All said and done i am as good as this man!
This channel is a goldmine just saying. The skills being showed in the vids are incredible. Thank you very much for sharing all the info. You go straight to the point and exactly show what the title says . Keep up the good work and please keep the vids coming. Subscribed!
It's always such a treat to watch a pro work. You know what tools and materials you will need, it's not your first rodeo that is obvious. I want to thank you for sharing just a bit of your talents, sir. This is quite helpful.
mate, every time i see your work im blown away . i am going to have to master this method for touch ups mate. its good to see you back with a video again and i wait with excitement for the video on the new compound. thanks again for a great video much appreciated and keep up the great work my friend.
I stumbled upon one of your videos over 4 months ago and was impressed by the techniques. Yesterday, after spending so many hours searching for your video in the history and almost giving up, there it was just a few seconds ago in the suggestions while looking for scratch removal. Unfortunately, the new year fireworks chipped my new car paint 😢, and I need to try to repair it. If I were anywhere close to you, I would have brought it for you to repair, but I am in Prague. I have ordered the Mirka tool, airbrush, and all the sanding papers. Wish me luck 🤞🍀 and thanks for the great content and your videos! Very relaxing, lol. 🚗✨🛠️
the channel was unavailable for 12 hours because it was hacked, but we managed to get it back like all the videos on it, I hope you will succeed in your work, I wish you good luck
I’m learning from this guy since I buy and resell cars. I tried on a black Honda accord and not perfect but I did a great job for my first time. I will continue to practice on more vehicles until I get to his level, thank you.
Beautiful results once again and step-by-step instruction really help me fix most rock chips and small nicks on my black paint thank you so much for sharing your method appreciated
Undoubtedly this is the best job done very well on your channel. Appreciate if you do the same procedure on Japanese vehicle which has much thinner paint and soft clear coats than BMW, Merc etc etc as their paint quality gives lot of room to play with. This will help lot of your audience to learn and how to tackle a similar job on Japanese paints. Thanks
Will this sand paper stages affect the orange peel of the factory paint(I think so). Remember it was in the center of the door. The video panning at short distance its really good.
Finally a new video, I am so impressed with your knowledge and the jobs you do. Keep sharing your projects. Greetings from Sweden! Konačno novi video, tako sam impresioniran vašim znanjem i poslovima koje radite. Nastavite dijeliti svoje projekte. Pozdrav iz Svedske!
Masterwork 💯, can I do it on my white VW Polo as I have the same kind of scratch on the right front driver side door. How can I proceed ? Do I have to get paint (the base coat and clear coat mixed from the Sikkens mixing plant at the VW authorised body shop) ? Where can I find such paint pen. I live in India.
When I follow those exact instructions for a scratch, I end up with a sanded area around the scratch but the scratch still visible. If I sand further, it removes the touch-up paint I added.
Wow, this is unbelievable, excellent and finished with a rotary tool, great job, thanks for sharing!!! Would be nice to put links of the products you used on the video.
Wanted to ask, you will see the difference with the factory paint job to your skills cutting it back, with the original orange peel, does, this mean you will cut back the entire door? Unless this was a custon hand finished paint job on the hole vehicle?
If you pay attention he added both clear and paint to the scratch, when sanding he was removing the excess paint/clear mixture that he used to fill the scratch. He shouldn’t have ate away at the clear too much at all, he was just trying to get the excess clear from the fill in to be flush with the existing clear.
Amazing work, great start and finish. Can you give me list of what need for the deep key scratch have same scratch on my car want to give it a try with your tactics
I'm very surprised there is no hazing from the rotary wool cutting, did you do a second step polish as well? As for the sanding, wouldn't the sanding on the vertical direction (so in an X pattern, not just left to right) be better?
Fantastic work. What I'm curious about is repairing stone damage. Are you thinking about making a recording about this. Or is it the same way to fill stone damage with paint pen and then wet sand. Thank you very much for your answer
My sons very similar coloured VW polo has a scratch like that on one of its doors. The video makes it look so easy but not sure I'm brave enough to start into it like this.
That's was an Amazing scratch repair I'm gona give it a go on my van few deep scratches . Thanks .. what grade was the first round sand paper disc you used.. ?
very good result!! Congratulations!! I have some questions... is the base of the color paint solvent or water? Could you pass the link of the uv lamp? Is any type of lamp worth it?
Another great video!! For those small spots I’m thinking to get a mirka deros 350 to use with the kovax discs. What do you think? Also the Festool carbide blade to remove the excess. I got the EWOCAR heavy compound, love it, but the delivery is complicated to USA, is there another compound alike that I can get here? Thank you
Hi man. Your videos are teaching me a lot about spot repair, as an amateur/weekend warrior/aspirant detailer. I found the INTEC Scangrip UV light, but I can t find any UV clearcoat searching on the web. Can you suggest one I can find in Italy or I can order from some website?
Nice video !! Have you links about material use on your vidéo (Pencil, UV lamp, mark UV clear coat mark) ? Thanks for your calm video and realy clean and good result 👍
I appreciate the video, just having an impossible time finding "UV Clear Coat" anywhere.. you have any brand or a shop that carries something you would recommend? I have everything except for that. EDIT: Also having a hard time finding a comparable cutting compound. I have options for 400, 1000, 2500, 3800.. there's quite a lot of options out there.
