Hey everyone. In today's video, my friend Judah and I go over two different touch up paints to see just how effective they are. Over the lifetime of your vehicle, wear and tear on your paint is inevitable, and although it's not perfect, touch up paint can be a great way to get rid of those eyesores and hide the blemishes from far away.
I want to thank my friend Judah for being a part of this video and helping make it possible!

For best results... -Sand the hole, and feather the edges about 1/4" around the area, as well, with 1500. -Apply paint. Let dry. repeat until the paint is above the surface of the surrounding area. -Wet sand it flush to the surrounding area with 2500. -Apply clear. -Wet sand it flush to the surrounding area with 2500. -More clear + sand. Repeat 3-4 times. -Wet sand with 4000. -Buff (A tool is best, but doing it by hand works, too) Metal flake / pearl paint will never look the same. It's just not possible.

Yup. You know what your talking about.

How long should I let the paint dry before I wet sand it?

@thisguyfromyoutubesaid1537 3 года назад

This is the second video on these pens ive seen of people making videos but doing it wrong. You have to wait for the paint to dry then put the clear coat on.

@The0n3 2 года назад

How long roughly does it take to dry? Assuming the spots are the same size as He’s working on

@thisguyfromyoutubesaid1537 2 года назад

@@The0n3 not long doesnt have to fully dry. Give it a hour atleast

@michaelstevens6002 Год назад

better yet... mix the clear coat with the paint then apply. That works best!

@ELEVOPR Год назад

@@The0n3 Says to wait 30 minutes , I wait an Hour.

@Rabbit.760 8 месяцев назад

@@michaelstevens6002 it does work best if you're using the basic methods such as these guys. There's a few very easy ways to achieve perfect results, I recommend checking out CVR POV and Auto Recon Ronnie youtube channels. You will not be disappointed

@dfrford 4 года назад

I have used the Motorcraft stuff also with good results. On the paint prep I will use 2500/3000 wet/dry to level out the area so it blends and then clear, after 24 hours or more go back and buff, you will be shocked how good it can look with a little more prep. Your video is great and for the price it does a really good job. Thanks for taking the time to create and post the video!!

@speedgeek8423 4 года назад

Thank you for the advice! I might actually have some 2500/3000 so I will give this a try next time. Thanks for commenting David 👍🏻

@311afox 3 года назад

Could also use a thin coat of glazing putty on the scratch too to help level.

@sentino68 6 месяцев назад

That was probably the first 3 steps out of 6. Someone else here listed out the steps correctly to get a proper smooth and blended finish. This was brutal.

For people watching I would definitely recommend using a buffer and scratch filler product to definitely smooth it out and make it looks really good

Sherwin Williams is the manufacturer for Fords touch up paint pens

@journeytree 3 года назад

With all that damage I honestly would've just taken off the paint with a drill and wire brush type attachment and sprayed new primer, factory color, and clear. Then wet sand to blend. I did it to my car last year and you'd never guess the paint was removed. The color was a black metallic so I was thrilled to see it looked great even with metallic.

@derrickcolgan6097 3 года назад

Wet sand to get the rough edges of the chip, touch up, and touch up clear and then re we sand, then buff.

@sharpshotta 2 года назад

2500 grit? Also, should I use compound or just polish to get rid of haze

@samanosukeakechi4388 2 года назад

Cool video man, I'm going to touch up my black challenger too, before I get a ceramic coat. Hopefully I do it right. Black is a pain to maintain.

@VoxVirtus86 3 года назад

I really think that you should have went ahead and gotten rid of the parts that are bubbled up to, but thanks for the video. About to order some to fix some rock chips on my Kona Blue 2016 Focus ST

@speedgeek8423 3 года назад

The hood will be fully replaced with an aftermarket one :)

@paulgator68 2 года назад

Whats up with the cracking / bubbling on the ford hoods. I have two F150 trucks. A white 2001 and 2014 gray. White is really bad now with big flaking off on hood and roof. can see the metal. The gray 2014 has a nickel size cracking like spot on hood. Does Ford cheap out on the paint process?

@speedgeek8423 2 года назад

Galvanic corrosion. Its an aluminun hood on a steel body.

@ImmortalBanditz 3 года назад

So its best to go over it 2-3 times 10 minutes apart each? And what is a buff? I see everyone in the comments saying buff it

@ronaldbrunsen Год назад

For lighter scratches you can buff in a scratch repair compound, but this works good for the deep ones.

@inakalimba9428 2 года назад

I think the dupli -kit is better than the Dr. somthing or other,,forgot the name. The blue color was an exact match and has the rust inhibitor. I have seen other vlogs using the Dr.?? A pre ruster must be bought separately with the Dr.??? Kit. My fender has that bubbling c300 Benz. Sanding hugh imperfection down to the metal is a scary task for a newbie. Do you have a video on that? How will you match your new hood's paint?

i have a question after the actually paint do i apply the clear cloth right after??? or do i wait??

You have to wait. Just like and hour. He put it on right after thats not what they tell you to do

You should read the instructions, it say paint one direction not dab it.

@ejicon3099 3 года назад

I'm not going to spill hate or thumbs down this video but you're suppose to build up at least 2 coats of base paint before adding the clearcoat.

Those pressure washers (with not much pressure) do not clean your car... best way is to hand wash with a microfiber sponge.

@jth877 3 года назад

You're probably well aware that the hood chips are from galvanic corrosion and a common manufacturing problem on mustangs. The only way to permanently fix it is to replace the hood.

@speedgeek8423 3 года назад

You are correct.
