    @cellplato the color of the putty varies from the hardener youre using… the putty you may be refering to is an after primer putty that fills in cracks and imperfections in the primer. which should be used very lightly as it does not have great adhesion so let cure ALOT.

    Nice video i am taking autobody right now while in highschool and we use different techniques so there are different methods of doing things. Like i said nice vid but don’t use gloves while trying to feel for roughness or lowspots use ur bare hands but the palm only

    80 is way to coarse to start out with on a dent that small :( ….he should of used dry 180 then prim….red puddy if needed.. then finish it off with wet 400..

    I noticed the same mistake, also he uses sand paper 80 too abrasive to start with, it always leaves scratch marks when job is finished, he teaches how to make a quick BOTCH JOB!!!

    We use a non spray powder guide coat in our shop. It’s effective. I like that stuff because it does get really hard to “see” the smallest of imperfections. We say to “let our hands be our eyes”. Nice video though. Spot repair is our bread and butter huh? LoL.

    Everyone is different. Some like bare hand and many recommend using a rag. They claim the rag helps indicate lows and highs. If I was actually about to send it to the painter, I’d probably feel of it closer. This was just for demonstration. Many times, I use metal glaze to finish the job.

    It is better to use several thinner coats, rather than one thick coat. Therefore, many times it is necessary to add another layer after the first coat is applied and sanded. The guide coat is dusted on or (lightly sprayed) to help indicate low areas. If there is a low area, more filler will need to be added.

    Good tute but @5:30 I get lost about when you would apply some more body filler? How are the shades etc indicating that? And the 2. @4:50 I get confused about you say “Just want to put this light dust cost on” – you mean PUT it on or leave some dust on?

    I believe that we were using Rage. However, we use several different brands. We also use a filler made by PPG. The newest filler we started using is made by 3M. It is their new system that come in cartridges and uses the new gun to apply it. There are a lot of good fillers out there.

    I really like this video.

    Please for future videos give the cameraman some ritalin. He’s moving it too much. It’s a bit distracting to watching the video.

    I’m looking forward to watching the rest of the videos.
