Watched over a 100 videos on spot painting.. this one is THE ONLY one that's correct

[johnhowlett]

Great tuition, gonna have a go myself on a Copart car I have in the garage, bought on a whim. Couldn't do it without video's like yours. Many Thanks

[dthetruckguy]

Thanks for sharing your work with us. You and some of the other YouTube painters have really helped me with my project car. I’ve been painting the car little by little. One panel at a time lol. Still learning.

[garyshive]

Very thorough with information on the process, the gun settings, the products, and the purpose for each step. You used good grammer and appropriate words. Great video!!!!

[Greyfox]

I like the explanations and the fact that you offer options to a complete panel paint job. Thank you!

[scottroby]

Excellent concise instruction, I'm getting ready to paint my 97 Trans Am with a budget Eastward gun. I'm going to binge watch your videos first.

[andrewkeeney]

Just getting into this at a pretty senior age and have been learning a lot from your videos. I really enjoy your instruction and presentation. Ordering my Aeropro A610 on Prime Day and will continue watching and getting smarter! ;-) Thank you, Andy K

[petert]

Very concisely described process. Thanks for helping

[AD-uwbd]

I love how professional your videos are. It gives me a lot of insight on how to do proper body work. Thank you.

[grunter]

Best video I've seen on how to blend in paint. usually its a whole panel but that sometimes is not practical. Thanks Awesome job. I, m gonna give it a go using your great tips.

[robertcharlton]

The touch up with small spots was just what I needed. Thanks a bunch. Keep on keeping on. You are appreciated!!!

[kyrptotech]

Hey, Chris. Talk about a well-timed video! I've watched it three times already. I burned through a door edge wet sanding, and I need to repaint and blend it in to the rest of the door.

I really dig that you're using the LT100, too. I'm using a Kobalt Quiet Tech 26-Gallon Compressor, and the LT100 is the perfect gun for that setup.

Also:

If you're looking for video ideas, I'd vote for one about how to paint door jambs without taking the doors off. 👍

I had a 1980 Corvette. At that time they used lacquer and I used to do some repairs. I have a new Infiniti in Graphite Shadow. In one week I damaged the front and rear bumper. Bad luck I guess. I’ve never worked with metallic paint or clear coat before but I’ll give it a shot. I learned a lot from your video thank you and please keep them coming.

[sadeqtaha]

[adriandeb]

Hi Chris, another great video, i am doing my neighbours bumper next week so this has come a great time

[ANDY-wemr]

Cracking job 👏 chis well explained as usual so Chris a blending coate it's just a clear coat what you put on first

[Bitplex]

Amazing process, a couple of questions however. Why didn't you need to sand the clear coat down above the damage (on the natural body line)? You sanded the rest of the panel, but in this section you sprayed the base coat and the clear coat over un-sanded clear coat. You also scuffed the clear on the bottom left panel (from the damage), and blended that into the rest of the panel - but was there a reason you didn't do this on the right side of the damage? (You instead sanded and resprayed that whole bumper). I'm new to this, but it felt like you used 3 different techniques - one above damage, one to the left of damage, and one to the right of damage, to achieve the same or similar results.
