I fixed myself two big scatch on my front lip !!
Yes, i did it myself and i'm not a pro !!!
First i covered the front noze with some masking tape and paper tooked at the bodyshop of my job !!! (i work in a KIA dealer). ....It look's like a doctor with his mask before an operation !!! And i sanded it with a 320 and 600 grid sand paper. After that i put some primer....then sanded again with a 1000 sand paper... Then....the color (8T0).... ...later......finally i put the Clear coat and........tadaaaa !!! Not too bad for a beginner !!! |

Thank's everyone !!
I was surprised by the result, usualy i'm not very good with bodyworks. I tried different things on other cars i had and i saw that i'm better with mechanics and electronics. But this time i got it right !!! I was scared but i took my time !! |

nice one mate i have done my own a few times i work with rowing boats and have done a number of spray jobs... enough to know that it can be real hard to stop the dust and crap to not blow on ... how did you manage to stop that ... as we cant see if there is dudt or not ... when you are spraying you need to make sure you sand all the area you wish to paint so the paint has something to stick to.. looks good in the pick hope it stays on the area that was not sanded :) top job mate

Too bad that you don't live closer. I would have you fix a spot on my wife's bumper. She backed into someone at the store.
