It's amazing how easy it looks when this guy does the repair & painting.
Darn, it's not so easy when I do that myself.😁

Nice job! I was not expecting the paint to blend as nice as it did. Thank you for sharing

I've been doing body work and painting for over 40 years. Anytime I grind out rust I apply zinc chromate as the first coat.

Great content, thanks for the info. Thought I'd mention: volume diff between intro/brand and rest of vid is a bit deafening

[kurtandrekhan]

Well done brother! You did a great job!

Do you have any thoughts on rust converting paints and coatings?

[zindagi]

Great work, thanks for showing us how to fix the drip 😊

Thanks for the video! I’m going to tackle this myself after watching this. I did see another clip where the guy folded the tape over n itself to create a soft edge which looks like it might work well

[JustNel]

Awesome.. try doing a video for primer.. my car is gray and I have a spot where it looks like a clear layer is peeling off

[josephtravelstead]

[rondhole]

good video and gives examples how to fix our mistakes as a beginer painter

I need to do this with my 2012 Ram 1500. Right rear quarter panel is rusting behind the paint between the bumper and the fender well. I'm gonna have to remove my rear bumper to get behind it tho. I plan to apply black rhino liner under the body line on both sides of the truck front to back to help protect it from future salt and chip damage

[gimmeagig]

What do you think about using a rust converter before the primer? I have some areas on my old truck that are difficult to get the rust off by sanding.

[mikep]

Would a rust inhibitor before priming be an extra preventative to deal with rust in the future?
