Cobalt Dent Repair Video

This is another one of our used car repairs where price is more important then quality. There is a fair sized dent on the quarter of this car that needs repaired in a $450 budget.

To start the molding should have just been pulled from the start, as I\'ll later find out there is a dent under it that if I spotted earlier it could have saved me some time.

After the dents are filled they are blocked with a variety of sandpapers to level. It was finished in 240 or 320 if I rememer correct, using a guide coat to refine the scratches. After a few coats of primer its blocked again and finished in 400-500 grit and the blend is prepped with P1200 and a grey scotch pad/sanding paste.

Once taped up it is given a few coats of base and 2 coats of clear.

I have been referencing your video "How to Polish a Black Car", purchased all refinishing materials, and am ready to go. In doing the first step (2000 grit wet sanding), with minimal pressure on small scratches, I am down to the primer paint level very quickly! My question is: Do you know if this model has just a single level paint (clear coat and paint in one), or has two stage (paint, then clear
