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.

    HELLO, I was wondering if you can shed some light on my problem. I'm having some trouble spraying silver. I am use DuPont solvent base. Some time it sprays out and looks like chrome and some time it comes out coarse looking. What I'm I doing wrong?I know pressure has a lot to do with it, but I'm at a lost? Any help would be great
