Great video, really instructive; the first video I’ve watched that sets out the steps in an understandable and comprehensive manner.

I've watched a few videos on cut and buff where they started with 1500 so i made my attempt.I went through so many sheets it was ridiculous.One guy said he did one whole side with 2 sheets and took him 20 mins.No way, it took me sessions to be done with 1500. The next time i will have 1000 grit ready to go before i even think about cutting and buffing. again.Great video and explanation.

You are so right about paint on new cars. My sister bought a brand new Kia a couple of months ago. Nice and shiny, until you look closely. I've had better finishes with rattle cans. Great video, really enjoyed watching it.

Good procedure to get the gloss.
Wishbu had payed more attention on the metalic.
Very blotchy and uneven.
But not bad on the clear

What's the deal with speeding it up when giving advice about going through the clear coat - that would have been helpful info!!!

Great video. Just had my car painted here in Mexico. Went to pick up the car yesterday and he said - Ah - polishing is a separate job. not included in the price I gave you for painting the car. We need more dinero !

Did a hood on my truck, used the DA wet with plenty of soapy water, 1500, 2000, 2500, then 3000. Looked great. Break out the buffer and DA marks appear over the entire thing! Pulling my hair out trying to figure out why! Not the first time this has happened.

I have a airbrush just in case, sand burn thru with 400 keep it only in the burn thru and sand with 1500 1 inch around burn thru.Spray burn thru with light coat let it dry 30 minutes, follow with ur blend keeping it only on the burn thru.Let dry add clear coat to air brush and clear up to the 1 inch around burn thru.Let dry and cut and buff.their are very cheap airbrushes at harbor freight.

[thomascharlton]

so many questions im about to do this to my car so any thing you can answer will help... 1st how many coats did you put on? was the black harder to do than the green? what grit sand paper did you use? how long do i need to let it dry before i wet sand? and how loong till i buff? can i put 2k clear on a few days after i paint?
