This video follows the Perkins Crew as they work to repair and repaint a Toyota truck that is in rough shape.
The video begins with the group assessing the condition of the truck. The hood and roof are in poor shape, with faded and chipped paint. The friends decide to sand down the problem areas and apply a fresh coat of paint.
The first step is to use a sanding block with 120 grit sandpaper to smooth out the rough spots on the hood and roof. Erik comments on how expensive the materials needed for this job can be, especially the primer and paint.
After sanding, the group applies a self-etching primer to the bare metal spots to prevent rust. They then use a flexible sanding block to continue smoothing the surface in preparation for the new paint.
The friends encounter a few challenges, like filling in small holes and dents with a body filler called Bondo. This requires multiple applications and rounds of sanding to get a smooth finish. They discuss the time-consuming nature of properly repairing a vehicle's body.
Once the prep work is done, the group moves on to applying the new paint. They mix the paint with a high percentage of reducer to thin it out, then carefully spray it onto the truck in multiple thin, even coats. The friends comment on the importance of using the right spray technique to avoid drips or uneven coverage.
After the paint dries, the group moves on to applying the clear coat, which adds a protective glossy finish. This step also requires careful application to ensure an even, smooth result.
With the painting complete, the friends shift their focus to reassembling the truck. They reinstall the hood, fenders, and other components, taking care to align everything properly. They also add new floor mats to complete the look.
Throughout the process, the friends provide commentary and advice based on their experience. They acknowledge that professional auto body shops would likely have done things differently, but they are happy with the end result given the constraints of working in a non-dedicated workspace.
The video concludes with the fully reassembled truck looking significantly better than when they started. The friends admire their handiwork, proud of the transformation they were able to achieve through their collaborative effort. The video serves as a glimpse into the time, skill, and attention to detail required to properly repair and refinish a vehicle's bodywork.
