i have done many throughout the years but not all properly documented...so this will be the guide for those of you who may want to save your car paint from repainting


Tools
Clay & Lube, IPA or Thinner, Compound or polish, Sand paper * if required, touchup paint *matching the colour code! smallest paint Art brush! Kacang putih and kopi O*******


******** it will take some time, as well buy some snacks to munch while doing & waiting the process LOL


Tips...
**do it in a good weather day! not rainy or damp day after rain...moist will contaminate your paint finish


Step by Step
#1 wash your car thoroughly* you dont want dirt to be trapped under your new paint
#2 Clay for contamination * is like putting alcohol swap to clean your wound before dressing with medications
#3 Polish or compound if necessarily - esp besides the wound
# 4 Sand paperif necessarily and repeat step # 3 otherwise jump to Step # 5
#5 IPA or thinner to remove all polishing oil or residue
# 6 touch up begin

** slowly stirring or shake to even out your paint..... make sure your mixture is correct...not too soil or heavy neither too thin by over thinner mixture

*** dip a little and dry the tip of the brushes
**** start to colour on your wound
****** sit back open your kacang and eat a few first aka insimple wait for the first passes cure aka dry
******* then repeat *** & ****

till the level is up to its original and you are satisfied!!!

Tips
You cant hurry LOVE! remember you need time to grow love

A good seed sowed ...a good tree wills grown over time..bearing good fruits

Do a good deed and you will feel good by doing SO!
 
Nope. No guts to try

once there was a Frog kingdom, upon the passing out of the king - he placed a challenge to all the frog -tizen

who ever can leap up to my throne shall be crown the next King....day after days no body did and the king Died...................

*
* King*

XXXXXXXX

X MmmmMmmmMmmmMMmmmmmMM




Then came one day.....out of the sudden......an ugly skinny..... jagged frog mange to leaped up.....everyone bow and subject to this new King

Hail the King!!!! came the reporter and he was interviewed...but the Newly crown king refuse to says word.....and everyone was mad at the king

by virtue the cup bearer found out that he is Deaf!!!!! much later ...the whole kingdom....just realized that there is so much of negative comment ....nobody would dare to live up to the challenge...

"it Take A deaf Frog to Leaped Up"...the moral of the story is simple never ever listen to anyone....shut your ears and "JUST DO IT!" Nike says


you too can do it! practice Practice and practice till you get prefect ..otherwise use thinner to rub it off and redo it
 
kc's- The little Artist's brushes work great, huh? WAY better than the [crappy] plastic-bristle things that come with many touchup paints.
 
Looks great. Hope mine comes somewhere close to that whenever I get around to trying it.

Yes...definately...imagine...one who is constantly soak in the paint distill with thinner....another one new and can be cleaned by thinner after used

I have at least a dozen of it ....for my disposal

all you need to remember is 'Nike'

Just Do It...and if you dont like it ...get ready the thinner and rub it off ....start all over again
 
we buy touch up brushes at craft stores. in the section for painting and model cars they have all sorts of tiny brushes and shapes of applicators for cheap. Hobby Lobby is best place.

Yupp! Thanks for your enlightenment

I brought mine in stationary shop for less than 30cents

You are right sometimes the simplest is always the best

We needn't make ourself complicated

LOL

Excellent work! Love seeing stuff like this, keep it up.

Thanks CxboostinXX for your kind words of encouragement

Definitely !
 
Heh heh, I paid through the nose for my brushes compared to those prices :o

One thing I've found is that for metallic paints I don't do well with *really* tiny brushes (generally anything smaller than say.... "00"). I do find uses for the tiny ones when working with non-metallics and clear though.

there is a saying goes... "the grass is always greener over the other side of the fence"........to me both the metallic and the non...has almost the same texture..or should be the same
But..............
I would suggest you dilutes your paint with a drop of thinner"...sometimes...after much storage .. it get thicken ......especially.. after you exposed to air
 
kc's- I guess my problem with the tiny brushes (sizes like 00000/5-oh) is that if the metallic is big enough it just comes out weird, like the brush can't hold enough paint to get it uniform. That's talking REALLY tiny brushes though.

!!DILUTING TOUCHP PAINT!!...heh heh, that got caps because I once ruined a bottle of it that I couldn't afford to lose (presumably lacquer-based, even asked before trying) by adding a little lacquer thinner. If I *KNOW* what it is, I'll add a touch of thinner/reducer, but I'm still leery of it. Once bitten and all that..

LOL
no worries what doesnt turn out suppose to be 'get the thinner to remove all your touch up "within or immediatley' after touch up
 
This is crazy excellent work! Did you sand the wrinkled paint on the lower nib and did you add clear to it? I'm impressed!
 
Kc, awesome job. I was wondering, where do you get the touch up paint in the right color code? I'm new to touch up and it gets me kind of confused. Would you know where to order touch up paint in Brazil?

Thanks!
