HOW TO FIX PAINT SCRATCH ON CAR BUMPER like a PRO | Easy
If your car bumper has scratch or scratches and you want to see how to fix scratches on front or rear bumper on your car we will explain that in this video. There is not reason to repaint a whole bumper just to fix a paint scratch. Paint scratch on a bumper happens very often and it is one of the most common type of paint scratch on a car. We demonstrated how we used touch up paint to fix the paint scratch on the bumper of this Chevrolet and as you can see the results are very good. After we fixed the paint scratch on the bumper it was almost not visible at all. You have to really look close to see that there was a paint scratch on the bumper. Hopefully the video will be helpful and it will teach you how to fix paint scratch on car bumper.

I need to know what where can i buy that?
Holy cow thank you so much 🥰 my new pink Barbie car is all messed up thanks to a horrible tow job 😂 it's a 2010 convertible mustang 😜 I'm so glad I watched your video before messing around with different methods 💜💙❤️
@@Jesussavedme aa
Drop " guys" from your speech I bet you don't even know that you're saying it you must have said it 200 times in 2 minutes it's really annoying
May I know how long should I wait to apply clear coat? Thank you
He did so good even the license plate changed from California to Oklahoma.. amazing
Ha ha ha ha ......you are a god !!!! ahahahahahah 🙂🙂🙂
Wow! What a scam!!!
They added a dealer tag . That’s not unusual or a scam.
You can still see the slightly different color in the repaired region, its not like its a different car...
dwl
Love the fact that you guys don’t just tell people, sorry get your entire bumper repainted.. Thanks for saving me tons of cash. U guys are awesome!
Exactly 👌🏾
Yes! Thank you so much for an informative and helpful video!
Well he makes this look a lot better than it is. This wouldn't work on any metallic color. Not nearly as good. Solid colors are very forgiving. It's easy to make stuff look good on white red and black. Get me a metallic color which is 80% of vehicles these days and do this and then I will be impressed.
@@brockkies8566 you’re correct my car is a black metallic pearl with purple in it and you can see where I put the paint and I’m still sad about it but it looked better than it did 😢
11:20 It's worth mentioning that the clear coat will lift the touch-up paint you applied. Make sure the touch-up paint is completely dry and dab the clear coat on to avoid moving the paint underneath.
Your not gonna get that red in one coat
Hi guys, what's your range for letting each coat dry, 15 minutes or so?
@@barbmccracken2265 No, 12 hours at least. Read the directions on the clear coat spraycan.
I think the two most important tools for this job are patience and a steady hand. Good job. My hands shake when I concentrate hard so I leave such jobs to experts like the presenter.
Just went to an auto repair shop today for a quote on my car for some scratches like this. It came out to $1200 and now I’m here. Thanks for the video!
That’s not a touch up. That’s straight up repaint the whole car
Hey, Thank You SO MUCH, this was a GREAT VIDEO to teach an amateur how to fix these. I have a company car i hit the bumper with a snow blower and put a big scratch in the base coat. I don’t have the $ for a body shop paint repair but this worked perfectly, well not perfectly but believe me, no one can notice it!! Great Video, keep up the good work. Thumbs up for sure!!
I started to put a dollar in a jar every time he said ‘guys’. Finished watching, emptied the jars and am heading off to buy myself a new car!
Lol, I made a similar comment on another of his videos a few months back... he definitely abuses the privilege to say the word “guys” doesn’t he!? Every other word is “guys”!
I watched this video a few months ago and never noticed how many times he said ‘guys’ until I read this comment. Now I can’t stop thinking about it 😂
Good for you! Now let's see your car and your videos on your channel 🙄
Man, I was literally in tears when I red this comment 🤣 Come on guys
Cmon now guys guys guys
Very well presented and steady framed video. Great work guys.
Definitely a good upgrade from where it was at. Thanks for the video Bro! 🤙
Well done! Cheap fix, as compared to a respray.
Great video! Really appreciate how well you fixed those scratches.
I love how his accent is extremely thick but his English is flawless
He almost sounds like he’s underwater it’s so thick
Thank you for your video. Love your accent and the tradition of putting wedding ring on the right hand. It brings me back so many beautiful memories.
Excellent tutorial! Simple step by step instructions. Amazing results. Thank you for posting this video. I really learned a lot.
This helps out a ton! I have a few scratches that are annoying, but not quite worth taking it to the body shop. Thanks for the detailed tutorial!
Excellent video. Very informative and comprehensive for the everyday "do it yourself" car owner.
This is superb and the explanations are just enough without elaboration. It will help thousands of people. Thank you.
This is amazing and exactly what I am looking for Thank you so much!
Thank you! The best video about chipped paint fix. You guys are the best!
Thanks for teaching a simple but tedious paint touch-up process that actually works!
Thanks for the awesome video, have a customer with the same issues hopefully mine will turn out as good as yours. Thanks for the step by step in the clear mention of what is being used and how to use it you guys rock.
How did it go
Your video saved me a lot of time, money and a HUGE headache!! Thank you.
Wow, didnt think it would have turned out that classy and glossy!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial keep them coming thank you for showing the detailed steps👍
This was extremely helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Even though the license plates were different, it is the same car. I look at the dark spot and it still shows very slightly. Still a great job! I think the reason for the change of plates is because this is a trade in car. And as a dealer, he was fixing the paint before putting in the dealer plate.
Great job I was skeptical initially but I think I am going to use this method to fix the scratches on my truck
Spectacular work!
That was excellent and very helpful in every way! Thank you so much for sharing this with us 👍🇬🇧
He’s lying to all his subscribers!!! Check out the license plate, California plate on the car with the scratch & the finished car has an Oklahoma plate, what a pos!!!
@@Carrierdlr1 Are you 100% sure that the plate wasn’t changed during this process? Or, are you just the kind of pos that jumps to conclusions?
@@Carrierdlr1 I have done repairs like this before. This is 100% legit. If you think he is lying you must have no clue about paint work.
Thank you for this video!! Someone did a hit and run on my car on this exact same spot and I can’t afford to send it to a shop to get fixed 🥲🥲 This was incredibly helpful and informative. Much love and gratitude!!
Very informative and a great result!👍🏻
Wow, when the video started I had my doubts, but the ending was epic, thanks for the information, it looks spectacular
This is the best video I’ve watched for the average person. Amazing
Excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to create this!
rewatcvh the vid, 2 diff cars, check plates towards start and end
Great catch. Much Respect to those with eyes to see and ears to hear. Wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t really speak with an accent either 😁😉
great video, going to fix my bumper now. thank you.
Fantastic job! Great vid mate thank you 👍👍👍
Great content! This is very helpful, thank you. Subbed.
Great video and great repair1 Thank you. I will need to try something like this soon!
What a clear detailed description. Great job and subscribed
Thank you! Great detailed instructions.
Wonderful video! I scratched the rear bumper of our Mercedes on the garage door. Small, similar chips/scratches like in the video. Had some pretty outrageous quotes and even one suggestion to get a new bumper. There's no dents in the car. We'll try this first. Thank you
How did your touch-up go?
@@johncooper2790 OMG, you can't even tell where the marks were. This video was great as I didn't know about the touch-up pen from the dealer. I did purchase the sander pen piece separately. This video saved us tons of money. We've got the metallic emerald green paint job and collision shops were quoting $2500 and up.
@@johncooper2790 Our marks we about the same size as in the video.
Congratulations, Sonya! I'm really happy for you. You saved a lot of money and, more importantly, you can take pride in that you fixed it yourself!
Use a little piece of paint stick wrapped with a strip of 2000 grit. Then 3000 grit. The block of wood should be about 3/4" x1 inch. Cut a strip 1 inch wide and 6" long. Use a water bottle with a squirter to keep the sand paper wet. A little dish soap( 5or 6 drops shaken up) in the water makes it slide better. If you had to put several coats of color then clear. I would recommend 1500 grit to start with. This whole process works great on hood chips too.
Do you sand before clear?
@@cbeaulac yes
Thanks
So all the soap does is make sanding smoother?
Thank you so much! Great video and results. What kind of sandpaper did you use?
That was a awesome video thank you so much for the step-by-step. I have one question for you where can I find that exact lint that u usedto buy the touch up paint?
Man...you did a very nice job; thanks for saving me money and teaching me how to do it! 👊🏻👍🏻
Excellent,excelkent,excellent
This may sound insane but it is very helpful when you show the mistakes and how to correct them. I'm not a pro and know I will make the same or similar mistakes and it's good to know what I need to do when I do make those mistakes. Thanks.
Very helpful video . Great results 👏
I learned a lot from your video 🙂 Thank you 🙏
I like this guys accent. It sometimes sounds like he's underwater. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏼
Fantastic video! Results turned out WAY BETTER than I expected on my own car! Thank you!!
Looks like he's working on 2 different cars judging from the 2 different number plates. Did you follow the same process as he did? How did you get the paint color for your car?
@@Zakar1 my car is a black Toyota. I have the color coded touch up paint.
@@PerformanceComputing Did you follow the exact process he did?
@@Zakar1 Yes.
Scratch repair cream you used and buffered doesn’t that wash off after rain and time then leaving the paint foggy again after sanding ?
Thank you Sir! This is looks just like my car and it looks great.
I'm glad this guy told us guys what others guys have taught him over the years, We as guys need to thank guys like these guys.
look at the license plate change, dont believe this s*** lmao
Great video. Im repairing a 2 inch scratch on lower front white bumper. Blends easily. I purchased same paint that you’re using. I did not know about the clear coat in container before you should us. Thanks !
What's the name of the paint product? Thanks in advance
Thanks, I wasn't aware of that new duplicolor product. Got 3 estimates $600-$880 to fix scratched bumper. Made guy that hit my car (luckily there was a witness of who backed into me) pay me $600 cash and I'll fix it myself
Finesse 😂
Fantastic work you saved a ton of money work of art
Amazing! I have some paint chipping on my Prius’s front bumper. Just got quotes for repainting it at $675 & $650 🤪 I think I’ll give this a go first. Thank you for sharing!
How’d it go?
Hello, i have done similar repairs like this,but i like how you showed entire process in real time... one of the best demo and explanations on fixing scratches... i have a question... When applying clear coat i would think it would be good to not only apply to where you did touch up paint but slightly over lap on to original paint... then when you wet sand you would have a smooth transition and no hard edge... i think you may have done this,but you did not mention it when you applied the 2-3 coats of clear.... Lastly is that a 2k clear on that dupli color en kit??? i ask because i never use that pen...i just use regular base and clear from large cans ...thanks again for the great demo...
check out chrisfix. He did one recently as well.
I don’t doubt the steps taken will have good results. Real-time? 😂. The car starts off in Cali and ends in OKC 😃
@@annagraham6204 YEAHHHHHHHHHH....I agree Anna...how does the car start in Cali and the last plate is OK????? please explain why the video is not consistent...However,...it IS the same car...because even after, I can still see the bad spot...so it is a legit fix IMO...he made it look better
@@SylvesterPotter The license plate changed from CA to OK which is interesting, looks like the same car though. I'll leave the jokes to myself.
@@SylvesterPotter Per this comment Greenpower2 wrote a year ago, this may be a valid explanation; "Even though the license plates were different, it is the same car. I look at the dark spot and it still shows very slightly. Still a great job! I think the reason for the change of plates is because this is a trade in car. And as a dealer, he was fixing the paint before putting in the dealer plate." 😉I did not even notice the plate change. I was so focused on the area of the bumper where the repairs were made. @Anna Graham is very observant.
I watched a number of videos of many others, and I've decided to go with your method to fix mine. Thank you.
Nop. It did not work most of my scratches. The depth of the scratch must be really ideal for this method to work, I guess. Thanks for the idea, though.
@@blue52851 how did the finish look? Tried doing this on my neighbors car today and I don't know. Seems like the paint looks a little darker where I applied it. At some angles it looked blended in.
Great job...great tutorial!
By far the best video for this I’ve seen LOL great job 💪🏼
Good video, would you go to a car detailer or paint shop to have this kind of damage repainted with touch-up paint? Paint shops seem to quote for the whole bumper to match, and quite expensive. My car has two 4" line scratches from the hinge of a closing garage door. I’d try myself but my hands are too shaky at my age. Thanks, enjoyed the video👍🏽
Same situation as you
Grrrrrrreat vid guyz%@$
@Michael Hill How did it go?
The whole bumper, you lucky if that's where it stops, they wanted to do both fenders to make sure they match the hood for me. I would just paint the hood black.
Thank you for making this video! I was intimidated but this looks easy. I have car polish that I planned to use to smooth it after, do I need to use a scratch repair if I have no scratches but only chips? I have a section on my fender with 5 small chips near each other.
Thank you for the help, very informative video
Fantastic tutorial. Thanks a lot!
This is AMAZING! The work, instruction and production value are top notch! I can't wait to try to replicate this on my recently professionally painted bumper cover that got some nasty scratches just days after being fixed. What level of cut/grit is the pad on the power buffer? I'd like to use the least aggressive pad that will still get the job done this nicely. Thanks so much for posting this!
It's amazing !! I have a little scratch on the hood of my sierra 2014 it's the same process to be fixed? Thank you.
Just watched this video and it was very helpful. Thank you ❤
well explained! exellent job!
Yup, this does work, I've been doing this for years. When you add alittle bit of dish washing liquid to the water when using the wet dry sand paper, it moves smoother on the paint.
The problem is Where can I get this products?
@@SuperCollince All in the video description links.
Thank you so much for this! Some moron who doesn't know how to drive scraped my car parking in. I'm so mad right now but I can see it's fixable. Thanks! :)
Mistakes happen. I'm sure you've made a few yourself. Does that make you a moron who doesn't know how to drive too?
How did your fix turn out? I’m doing my 2022 MDX that my neighbor scraped but refused to acknowledge.
I've always wondered what a scratch repair would look like using this method. Touch up pen, sand and polish. What does it look like close up?
wonderful and clear explanation.thanks a lot
Watched it all, so interesting Very impressive stuff 🌟 Just wanted to know what pad did you use for the buffer. Soft, hard or medium. Spacibo Bratan from Pakistan 🇵🇰
White polishing pad - very common. Almost no cut.
I thought the video was superb and explained well enough for everyone to understand even though the gentleman’s accent was a bit strong. Got yourselves another sub gents. 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video, thanks for the info!
Looks much better, great job.👍⭐️
Thankyou I just got quoted £450 for the same type of scratches and they said 4 days in the garage!!!!
450 quid for similar damage? They are probably quoting for a complete bumper respray with removal and refitting. I have my own company doing mobile bodywork/paint. That amount of damage would be £100 to repair and paint to a Bodyshop standard and would be completed in about 2 hours.
4 days of bar hopping and 50 pounds for the scratches.
I paint my own bumpers at home,much cheaper.
Great video and very informative, very well explained. Great job..
Perfect video I needed, I have a 05 Saab ARC convertible that has really low miles, so I want to get the outside of the car perfect...my only thing is, the worse thing is the bumper paint which is flaking, should I wet sand that 1st, to make sure I have all the loose paint gone?
Amazing video. Well worth the time watching. Professional tips for people on a shoestring budget
You need to sand first after red paint then clear coat and then send 1 more time then buff polish
How did the license plate switch from a California plate to an Oklahoma plate?
Used dealer plate
Does that matter. I swear y’all be focused on the wrong things
Thanks you so very much for an AMAZING JOB !
Valuable tips and video, guys 😆
Thank you! Great tutorial, you are really saving ppl some money. If you took that car to a collision center I guarantee they would quote you for an entire new bumper. And the people making fun of these " guys" ....pretty sad. I admit at first he said it a lot. But you can tell he is from a different background. Laugh to yourselves not try and publicly roast the guy on his channel.
Thank for the video great repair job done. ! Where can I buy the repair kit ??
Amazon.
Perfect!
never know scratches were there. Amazing !!!
Great videos very helpful, amazing, very talented guys , обаче нямали щъркели в тая Америка че носите мартениците почти във всеки ваш клип :)
Great video and explanation. The repair looks great! Keep up the great videos!
That was amazing. Now I'm gonna do that to my car!
How long would you let it dry before sanding? It’s 60 today. Thanks
Great work
The video is almost perfect except that the plate number of the vehicle in the early part of the video is different from the last portion. Lol
It’s a dealer plate used at the end because he clearly works for a dealership and the original CA license was expired.
Wow Noel you ruined my hopes of fixing a scuff mark on my Mustang 😓
Same car though the touch-up is still in the area he was working and like the other comment said they replaced the original plate with a dealer plate.
Good work done 👍
This video was very helpful. Thank you.
😁 some of u guy were right two different plate on the back of the car 🚗 that funny video 😎
many bodyshop use dealer tag so they can drive customer car if they need to. make sure everything is okay after they repair.
I always seem to get swirl marks if I use a buffer like that. It looks good until the sun hits it a certain way.I have to use a random orbit instead.
ur grit isnt fine enough or it is too fine and the deeper grooves are not being buffed out
Doesn’t look bad at all. There are probably even more accurate pens out there too. Very great method
