  1. I agree very good in structural video 4:58

  2. Please Come to germany and fix my Car bro

  3. How do you not damage the paint while sanding? I tried super carefully sanding around trying not to touch the paint at all but still managed to scrub some paint of… Thanks!

  4. Can i ask how you get your hands to move super fast

  5. Hey man, appreciate the video. I'm in Canada and I'm guessing you're somewhere in the UK area. What is panel wipe? Is that just rubbing alcohol?

  6. Love it, thank you! If you had multiple spots on the bonnet (I have around 15!), would you do them all at once? Feel silly now I've asked. I assume yes?

  7. Absolutely brilliant style of video
    Thank you very much for you efforts.

  8. looks like I'll be doing this on one of my Camaro 20" wheels – I'll never understand how factory clear flakes like it does (had it happen on my wife's Ford Edge, front bumper though)…

  9. Man i just bought a used car , after 3 months there is a patch like this on the front bumper showing up , the seller of the car had hidden that damage before selling it , now its worn off and i am stuck with the same type of hole as in this video , people have no shame…

  10. Love it… simple, clear, no nonsense.

  11. Excellent work young man. Very informative.

  12. Great job mate!!! Just tell me, you just sended with weat sending, of course, and then you just put the paint (matching with previous one) and then only polish? You didn't put anything between these two?

  13. Good job. However, it it's a Peugeot 307 set fire to the car and forget it 😅

  14. Boy really digs his work when he refers to the damaged area as a "Wound"….Keep on Truckin' Fella!

  15. Wow,impressed.
    Well done.!

  16. Cracking vid mate.need to do my son's car👍

  17. I'm surprised you can sand the colour coat without going through it!
