Mad4Motors hey bro can you fix rust I have rust on my car a little not to much how can I fix it?
Hi check out the video 👍
Sex m Kamera
Mad4Motors where are you based in the UK? I bought a car which have some chips on the bonnet! I wonder if you could suggest someone to fix it for me?
This was a cheating bro
I've been doing minor paint and touch up body work for 20-years for my little car dealership this is one of the best videos I've ever seen thank you for making it simple
HE DID A GREAT JOB 👍THE ONLY THING THAT I CAN'T USE THAT MATERIAL, I LIKE TO USE BONDO GLASS /I KNOW HIS MATERIAL IS BETTER, FOR THIS JOB U HAVE TO COVER YOUR FACE AN ARM , ANOTHER MATERIAL THAT IS REALLY GOOD BUT MORE MONEY IS "MONKEY HAIR, GREAT VIDEO
What’s your sales name, just so I can steer well clear of it...🤦🏻♂️
That's why I never buy any used car from a Dealership.
genau so ein pfuscher wenn sie das gut finden das ist was fürn ali autohändler um kunden zu betrügen
@@robertkattner1997lol what
When I'm spraying with cans of paint I always put the cans sitting in warm water for 20 minutes or so to heat the paint, it goes on much better.
Nice tip. Ty
As it should be done🤫
I'll give it a try. Been putting mine in the oven. Just don't leave them in to long :p
Nice tip. Especially helpful that Scotland is freezing. 👍
@@johnsmith-bt4hv I did this but I screwed up the Sunday roast so now I just chuck em on the radiator
Mind-blowingly good: clear instructions, great commentary, super useful. Thanks a million.
Very well described and explained. It's amazing how well you can achieve a very satisfactory finish using basic equipment and shaker cans. It's all about the preparation and being patient. You rightly stress this several times. Enjoyed every second of your video. Several decades ago when i first tackled a similar wheel arch job, I surprised myself at the very satisfactory result. Amateur me improves with each subsequent job I tackle.
Well said, I agree 😊👍
The first and most important process is the removal of the rust. Sanding away as much rust as possible with abrasive papers, both outside and inside the panel won't be enough for a lasting repair. Rust on cars, or as I like to refer to it, "Auto Cancer" has to be treated like cancer. When the "cancer" is cut out, you must get every cell removed, otherwise one remaining cell will propagate and grow. It's the difference between remission and cure. After reaching the sanding level shown in your video, continue to remove the smallest traces of rust with a rotary wire brush wheel, followed by small grinding stones on a Dremel tool. The extra time here will provide large dividends. Finally, coat the previously rusted area with an oxidizing rust inhibitor / converter and allow it to soak into the tiniest cavities that may contain rust particles and allow the converter to fully dry. When fully dry, re-sand the top surface of clean metal before application of body filler and primer. I have a 21 year old van that was developing extensive areas of rust 15 years ago. After repairs, only 2 areas have required further attention and about 8 other areas have remained "rust cancer" free.
The black part is also rust . It s not removed
Also, if you do NOT Get the rust from UNDER that panel, it will come RIGHT back, and mostly in just a couple of months! It just does not work. Done this well for years, and I can tell you, putting on fresh metal is the ONLY fix for a good car. Unless it is a car you really don't care how long it lasts. It is just a temp fix at best. NEVER prime without doing a paint coat over it same day. Primer is pourus, designed to have tooth for the paint going on top of it.
You're the real MVP.
Total a gree this repair will not last... the best way to get rid of rust is to sandblast then use muriatic acid to kill the cancer in the microscopic pores. Then neutralize the acid with baking soda or vinegar. I would then use phosphoric acid to create a phosphoric coating to prevent flash rusting does not occur. I would then proceed with welding or your repair. I would only use 2K epoxy primer to seal the bare metal.the proceed with body work.
@@772777777777777 Excellent steps! Especially if it is for your car/truck project! It takes huge amounts of time just to prep for paint, no matter what process, so why not do it right. However, some have a cheap car and are either flipping it and getting it to look nice, or just want a quick fix, which does not last very long. Having spent the money for supplies, and already strip an area, may as well do it proper...but hey, just my 2 cents. Tried it when I was younger on my daily driver, and soon was wishing I had just gone in and done it much better than I had done. Live and learn!:) LOL Cheers mate!
Watched alot of these type of videos never seen a blend done like that, great info thanks
what are you talking about xD xD people have been doing this sort of repairs on quarter panel of honda EG5 or EG6 for past 2 or 3 decades lol and trust me fixing your fender in that master is simply not worth it could be for sole fast of crap metal quality that will run soonwr or later (aftermarket china part) best GET OEM !!!!
@@BlondynCh or you can get fiber benders anf never worry about rust
Hi, as someone who works with lead as a filler, I would like to tell you how much I enjoyed this video, so practical and the Tech behind it is spot on. Your use of off the shelf products will be a boon to DIY'ers, well done. Just as a side note, Steel Naval Jelly is another off the shelf product that can help to 100% avoid the return of rust, a couple of coats, wash off, then the self etch. Anyway, great video as is, again well done. Blue Mule NC USA
Brilliant job.! You’ve given me the confidence to fill and paint a rusty hole in the top of my Ford Crown Victoria where it was drilled to install an antenna. It shouldn’t even be as difficult as this job as it’s a flat area. Thanks for posting.! 👍🏻
Same where. Crown Vic rust so bad. Im in Ohio where it snows
Marvelous work! I really like how you go into details without being too wordy. Everything is straight to the point. I have subscribed to your channel. Looking forward for more useful tips for repair!
Have to say you did a cracking no nonsense training video there ,,spot on matey thanks for your work ...
I've got a 1963 aistin cambridge. A hit of surface rust and a few larger areas. This by far is the best rust repair video I have seen anywhere and I've looked everywhere!!! Thank you
I've got to say, this is a great video. 👍 It is by far informative and, almost, professional in content. I thank you very much for taking your time and giving a good explanation on the steps. Fantastic job.
I painted my car just as you showed me and I'm really chuffed with it cheers!!! I keep looking at it thinking I can't believe I did it haha!!!
Great work send me a picture on insta!
Just to be 200% safe I always put a rust preventer on the bare metal to kill any remaining tiny bits of rust that might still be there before the primer. Belt and braces. Good video 👍🏼
bonkey dollocks would like a rust dissolver work? Then clean it off and paint?
@@zenkikijp9667 hi, when you have sanded back to bare metal you put it on then because no matter how clean and sanded the metal looks there will always be tiny bits of rust in it. Put a coating on and let dry for 15 mins then repeat. It turns from a grey colour to black, that's when it's cured. Then just carry on with the repair, filler and flatting then primer. I used to use a product called Ku-rust, I think it's still available.. Basically it neutralises rust and kills it. If you don't use anything like it the WILL come back.
I have been detailing for the last 5 yrs and never had the guts to get into body repair. This month I started learning masking and sanding. With these videos I believe I'll have the confidence to do some body work. Thank you sir!
if you are learning detailing from this clip I have no more comments - good luck. I will keep away from you
@@brudgerfrudger2174 They don't know any better yet. You could be more constructive.
Sometimes your can find somewhat damaged parts at junkyards or online for cheap for free that you can practice on. Read a lot and watch a lot to get better approaches/standards as many people tell you to do different things but often there are more professional and long-lasting techniques you need to make good repairs. Most people will not pay you serious money to spray paint their cars but some will ask if their car is cheaper and they don't expect it to be in showroom condition. Practice a bit before you start fixing other people's cars because that's a way to avoid a bad reputation and having to deal with angry people and possibly even court.
@@brudgerfrudger2174 WHERE did they say they were learning detailing from this clip? Oh yeah, they DIDN'T! WTG
I'm so glad I came by this great video, I have a 2013 white Skoda Yeti which we love, but door corners are rusting, bubbles of rust coming in panels here and there, etc, the rest being quite good. We got a repair/re-spray quote of over £3k to fix it, but would never get that back. One body shop declined to quote. I had decided to tackle it myself, as I did with affordable bangers in my youth over 50 years ago, and these clear instructions will help a lot, giving me the confidence needed. Many thanks for your efforts.
This is the best video on rust repair without welding that I have seen. And I have seen many. Thank you Mad4Motors !!!
YOU ARE A LEGEND , QUICK AND SIMPLE.
What a thorough explanation. Never seen a better one on any subject. Everything in the video is clearly visible. Well done!!
Very concise guide on how to do this type of work. I've never done any body work before and I was able to fix a rust hole on my jeeps fender. I managed to do a decent job because of this video
You've got some great information on your channel. I stumbled across your videos 5 days ago, in turn I've spent the last 3 days repairing my 22 year old eclipse wheels and so far I'm in primer with GREAT results from a rattle can. Keep it up and thanks for making it look easy👍
That sounds great, glad to hear it helped u out
@@Mad4Motors_My apologies, I meant to tag you in my previous comment. I just discovered your channel, can't wait to see more! Thanks 👌
Love this guy’s attention to detail.
You can see chrisfix video
Thank you for taking the time to create and post this video... it is the metaphorical helping hand for the likes of me, with no experience at all of such matters, when looking to have a go at patching up my car.
Excellent instructional vid ... clear, concise steps with each process explained. Gives me the confidence to give this a go myself.
Honestly, probably never going to trust myself to do this to my PRIUS, but absolutely fascinating to see you work. Shows what can be done at home with basic equipment and know-how
A prius wouldn't be worth the time anyway.
I'd sand it out and spray it just to keep the rust from getting worse
@@barristanselmy2758 If they've already spent a few thousand on any car, it would be a good idea to make sure it doesn't turn to rust.
Brilliant video, really helped me out dealing with the wheel arches on my MK6 transit campervan!! First timer dealing with rust and spary painting and happy with the outcome. Thanks again...
This video is incredible, this is exactly what I need to do with my car. Thank you for posting this.
Not sure why this video appeared on my YT list but I have watched it several times and find it very informative to say the least. Great direction with out taking a month to do it. That looks like a great repair job too.
You've inspired me to have a go at a small scuff on my bumper
Great instructions. Now I actually need to do this (groan)...I’ve just tried to ignore rust on my Jeep and now it looks like a real project. I feel like my tanning experience would be helpful with the painting part. Hopefully. Cheers!
Nice job 👍, just remember anyone watching don't use body filler to fill the rust hole as it attracts moisture, whereas fibre glass filler does not and your repair lasts a whole lot longer Thanks for posting.
i use filler all the time ,,newtech carbon fibre reinforced filler ,it sticks to rust like poo to a blanket , its made for those jobs repels moisture ,it's amazing & lasts way faster cheaper less hassle ,have you not tried it ?
@@jonsmith6982 thanks ill check it out .
I’ve used this video over the last few days for the arch’s on my E46 BMW and they have come out amazing. First time I’d ever done anything like this as well. Thank you bud.
are the archs on your bmw still rust free after one year?
@@moal1765 yeah mate
@@moal1765 Mine are after 6 effing years. now go back in yer hole
Really, really Helpful. Thanks mate!
Wonderful job and I love the young man’s determination and his calm demeanor when he is explaining what to do . very good job explaining things the man is an artist
thank you!
You are an amazing artist of car coloring. That is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks man. God bless you
About to undertake my first body work job ever and I appreciate your video very much. Clear and well explained. Thank you!
great video! im about to touch up the rear wheel well areas on the bed of my truck. this video is exactly what i needed. same kind of rust/damage, just in a different location on the vehicle
Did you ever do it?
@@IxAlwaysxWin yeah. i brought my truck to a friends uncle who used to own a body shop. we patched the rust the same way as the video, but after a few weeks, the rust came back trough the new paint and body filler. At least there is no holes in the bed of my truck now
nice work, i need to do some on mine when the weather gets better. ill be taking some of your tips with me!
Simple, straight to the point. Love how your instructions really let people know that anyone can do this with a little patience. That's the big takeaway I have of this video. Take your time.
That is a fabulous job on that rusted out section. I have a similar scrape and some rust on a rear fender by the back door, which I have neglected. Hopefully it’s not too rusted. After watching this, I have some confidence in being able to DIY it. I have done some body work in the distant past, so it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch for me. Thanks for the info! 😬🤙🏼
You make this process look a lot easier than it is...but looks amazing!
It will get easier with time. And it's way better to try and do it yourself, especially if it's a part that can be replaced if you mess up really bad.
Thank you for this. Been looking for guidance on fixing a few holes in the boot. Very timely indeed!
Dang bro it’s weird that you have rust in your shoes snd normally boots don’t have metal 😂
@@alexhaste5912 LMFAO
Excellent , simple , clear and helpful ....also little "fluff" ..just what many interested folk need...great job and thank you for your efforts . Bill in Devon .
Great job! You put in more to your repair than many do. thanks!
I was a time served spray painter who of course never worked with cans. The one thing that made the job easier was when you had sprayed your final coats much like the video, was you then sprayed a 'fine thinner' between the fresh paint and the rest of the panel. The fine thinner would evaporate/blend the edge of the new paint onto the existing paint. Meaning as long as your prep work was good then you only had to polish where you had de-nibbed rather than sanding the whole area and polishing. It would be interesting to know whether such a thinner was available in a can as it would give a far more desirable finish.
“Spot blender” and it comes in can for melting the edges
Can you rub the thinner on with a rag?
Hi Mad4Moters! This video has me believing I can actually repair my '98 Sebrings rust at home! She's my first daily driver, and I'd never be able to afford sending her away to a shop, but the rust definitely needs fixing! Thanks for making such a descriptive video for us diy'ers! 👍
Thank you so much for sharing I feel that you gave me the confidence to try this on my own vehicle fantastic work and thank you so much for sharing with the world
Good man, really enjoyed the repair! ROI is lucky to have you : )
Thanks a lot for this video! It has really helped me with repairing the rust on my daily driver and i have watched it a good couple of times during the last few days to make sure everything was good and guess what, following your tips it actually turned out decent
🙂Nice 1. Thanks for this, inspired me to have another go with better results thanks to your tips
Was about get a new sideskirt welded in which is about 300-400 euros, due to your video i tried to fix it myself with your method on my bmw e36 and it looks like a brand new sideskirt. Thank you so much, i owe you
Yesterday i did it in my truck, today i gonna paint it, thank you a lot, i saw 20 videos and nobody explain the process of the paint and was pretty cheap, 45$ the materials in walmart and 4 hours, but i had a battery sander, that help me a lot too
I would never have though that was possible! Very clean and clear video.
Thanks I'm doing this to my Accord I bought from New Jersey😁💪🏾, you made this look and sound Easy
This was great! Very well explained and the results are fantastic. You really got me thinking I might be able to tackle this on my ride. Thank you for sharing the knowledge!!!
Good job. Thanks for the details. I have bubbly surface rust on both rear fenders. It does not look like its gone completely through each fender. Your how too really makes it straight forward.😎👍
This is a very helpful and informative video. Thank you so much!
Thanks great job!! I have an Antique car that has a little rust around the borders. Don't have the funds $$ just yet to take it to the shop. Since I'm extremely handy and a quite learner. I'm going to preform 1st aid and remove and stop the rust. 🇹🇹👋🏽
Great tutorial. I feel like I can make this repair myself. So many times you want to get rid of a perfectly good car because it has some slight imperfections, now we know we can fix ourselves at home. Thanks
This is a really great video, no fluff and step by step, it has always been the stages for me and you nail it, Thank You.
Great video, well explained. You made it seem do-able for DIYers! Thanks 🙂
Even though your panel looks like it's sanded down to bare metal there are usually still rust present not visible to the naked eye. I believe you first need to convert and seal this rust on the bare metal to prevent rust from coming back. I like to use Dinitrol RC900 rust converter with epoxy sealing compound for this. Then I like to use 2K primer and also 2K clear coat
And a Dremel with a fine wire attachment to get into the nooks and crannies, then treatment.
Great vid, I use a lump of filler wrapped in cling film to create a moulded sanding block so all the curves of the wheel arch are correct.
Brilliant video, so easy to follow and so professional and articulate too with excellent voice over commentary and instructions. Well done.
Great work man...love listening to your accent too...English guy from the USA
Amazing video. Highly detailed and explaining everything! For people new to this process, I recommend using a Dual Action or Random Orbital polisher than a rotary polisher as it's MUCH MORE FORGIVING and less likely to burn through the clear coat.
But at 3:50, the wire tape stuff is in place with no explanation as to how. Why skip this important part?
@@matoko123 watch it again. all is explained
Looks beautiful. Amazing work. Perfect. Thank you for sharing this video with us.
Excellent video. You demonstrated and explained everything very well. Thank you for showing us how to do it.
As usual, brilliant presentation. Thank you.
Lots of practical tips in this straightforward and exceptional video. Thanks so much. I do wish you had taken a few seconds more to explain how to position the mesh to keep the contour line. Thanks again.
..... with a very happy ending 😍
I just did some work on my car. Made a mess of the clearcoat.. I should've gone back to your video for a refresher, but I couldn't find it. Best, most detailed explanation every. I also got a kick out of your accent.
people like yourself make youtube worth watching. Thank you.
What an excellent video mate. Well presented with all the detail, clear advice to do things properly and a great example on your car. Well done and thank you for such a great tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
To buy more time before the rust comes back ( it will) tap down all rusted areas before spreading filler or glass. Only way to repair rust for good is to cut out rot and remetal or repanel.
PROBABLY 3 WEEKS, AND WATER BUBBLES WILL APPEAR...
@@danbrown4850 yeah the only way to fix rust is to cut the metal out completely and use fibre glass or get new panels. I managed to fix mine and has still held up 6 months later. Once sanded down I just loaded any rust areas up with hammerite rust converter as it seals it in from oxygen
If it comes back it's only because of a moisture issue in that spot. You could sand it and paint it only and it would hold up from then on unless moisture somehow gets to the raw metal underneath again. Rust isn't a lifelong illness. Kinda like in this video the rubber piece behind it was allowing moisture to constantly be in that spot.
This is the best home body work video I've ever seen and I've watched several hundred. Well done mate.
But at 3:50, the wire tape stuff is in place with no explanation as to how. Why skip this important part?
Great! Now I know how to get rid of rust without cutting and welding! Even in my case, where rust is on the other side of the surface. Thanks!
Great video! Very simple to understand and easy to follow!
Thanks for the video. I would have liked to see you place the body patch that you mentioned at the 2:00 minute mark. It had already been installed when the fiberglass filler was being applied.
How did he actually attach the mesh? I was thinking the same thing and I def wanna know how he did it
Pat that was a brilliant idea with rolling the masking tape back so not to get a hard line. Never done that b4 and as they say……u learn something new everyday 👍
I am an artist and I feel like I can absolutely do this to my car haha you’ve got quite the craftsmanship! I’m gonna try this hope it turns out as good
Another great down to earth video. Thanks for the time youve taken to make the videos for other to benefit from your knowledge. Truly.... Thanks
Nice work bro all the way from the states in New Jersey. I appreciate the content and helping my growth and development. I've done body work and painting with amazing results. So thanks for the help
I'am from saddle river new jersey. and im happy to learn with this great vídeo 👍

THE BEST VIDEO I've seen on KZhead for body repair!!!
Thank you very much for taking the time to document and share this repair, which is similar to the one I will have to do on my vehicle. Very well explained and the result seems very satisfying in the end. Thanks again.
Yes , quite an ecstatic ending 🥰
The folding the masking tape tip was great. Getting the edge of the paint to not be raised. I would probably used an anti rust treatment before priming though and would have welded in a repair piece.
The whole point of the vid was to show how to make it look decent without welding. For those that want to tackle welding, he has a how-to for that too.
@@steve8803 yeah, I don't know how and don't wanna do welding, I just pulled in a 1980 Fiat Spider, the arches are bad, looks like they were done once before, gonna start sanding at some point this winter and see what's left! Gonna watch your vid on welding, I got a whole fender to put on in my future!
I’m impressed man looks good as new
Thanks ,I learnt a lot ! Every day is a school day and I think you have a natural talent for teaching ! Thanks again !
Great job! Very useful as I begin on my rust bucket truck. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Looks great! Well done 👍☺️🇮🇪
Took an auto body class in high school, and this is pretty much exactly how we were taught. Thumbs up!
That's how we fix used cars Ha
We call that stuff, scuff and squirt
Great DIY project with helpful tips and easy to follow instructions on how to repair a minor quarter panel rust. Thanks for your positive input.
Perfect presentation, execution, final result. Excellent job!
this is the man! good job and thanks
think it's only worth the main bodywork,threshold,rear fender ,which is a screw-soluble element , it's worth getting from a demolition, cheaper than glett, sandscreen, materials !! By the way, you're good, good working man :)
I'm bout to do this for the first time and honestly it's like patching holes in walls and floating out uneven spots. I'm pretty confident I'll have no issues except figuring out where to get some paint in a spray can matched to the color of the vehicle.
Mate! Ive been quoted £900 quid for this both rears. !! After your video im gonna do it myself. Cheers! Keep up the Great work!
amazing results with a couple of spray cans.
You are the man! Been having a right nightmare sorting my arches 👍🏻 you’d think I’d of learned this after owning an e46 but never had rust issues 🤷🏻♂️
so helpful. bought a used car that has some rust i wanna just fix up myself! ur the best
