Another car has hit my bumper and left a minor scuff. The other car's paint is left on my bumper without going through the primer. How do i remove the unwanted paint without damaging my bumper further more??

[outletbroker]

@lazylazyjai use 2000 water sand paper and alittle acetone..1st use acetone on a clean tshirt kind of clothe..2nd apply the acetone side to side motion from easy to hard and let it dry...3rd use the sand paper 2000 water and sand the area not too hard til desappear clean the dust usin again alittle acetone and let it dry..4th use a clear base coat (spray can) from a 8-12 in distance side to side (1 coat) let it dry and apply the (2nd coat) and thats all!. i hope this will help you.

Excuse me, what is that white paste that you guys covered it with?

[Jed9133]

is that a wall filler? I have that stuff let me try that in my bumper too....

[unknown2k1]

very nice job. i'm going to do my bumper soon too but i had quick question.

where do you rent or buy the sprayer? for priming, i can just use regular spray primer at autozone right?

[guitar4johnc]

they did a good job,i would have heated the bumber with the heat lamp...just easier,works better..been doing mobile paint for 15yrs..i have the right to comment here..all you idiots who dont know shit about body work,,should keep your silly comments and 2 cents to yourself,some people are trying to learn things here,lets not confuse them.

this is the proper way to fix this type of damage...theres two reason to paint the quarter panel...one theres obvious damage...two he has to take it color close to the quarter anyways so blending into the next panel is always a good thing so theres no color difference...

[corvettesassy]

plastic filler does not flex!!! this is not the proper way to fix that bumper. the filler will break off the next time pressure is placed on it. and why would you paint the 1/4 panel. please author tell me why, and not just remove my comment.

[denttime]

Indeed plastic filler does flex. It has to because of the hot and cold conditions. Now if it were to get hit in the same area of course it will damage again but that would happen if there was not damage before. The quarter panel was pushed in at the corner (look again) and paint was damaged. Again you jumped to conclusion and made yourself look like you are trying to prove something. I'll leave your comment up. It would be our pleasure.

@denttime hey i wanted to no how to remove scratches on my rear bumper the scratch'es have gone all the way through the paint

[shanec36]

its called Chemical Engineering. The industry is constantly evolving even for traditional body shops to reduce or eliminate the need for baking by reformulating the clear coat on the chemical level to not require the baking process yet have the ability to be wetsanded and polished within hours or last coat of clear. All in ambient temperatures.

Lovely job......you guys rock !!!!

[22bryant]

how long after after painting,,do I have t wait

until I can put the clear coat on it?

any body knows

[danielkabuto]

as soon as the paint dries but you have to wait till it dries and then wet sand and polish

[theberengersniper]

Most clears go on right after the base (colour) coat has flashed off, i.e. before it's completely hard. The flash off time various depending on all kinds of things like reducer, temperature etc.

nice job that lads i do the same work in cold rainy hull..uk..and am using waterbase paint.. wind n dust can be a pain but i get through it

[nassir789]

how do you manage to avoid the dust when you are doing it on the streets?

[denttime]

That's very rare it happens. If that does happen, we just color sand n polish. Besides, if it's windy, we don't perform the repair. We are also going waterborne within the next few months.

[nassir789]

'waterborne' is that the new user friendly water paints?

Also how u got ur business operating here in the UK? Or is it just in the USA?

[denttrix]

nice mask

[denttime]

UV lights while buffing n between. It's not as hard as one thinks, besides, there are fast curing clear coats we use.

[brandon743]

first off how do you do this outside without not getting anything in the paint or clear.. How do you buff in one day if ur not baking it..?
