Once again Rick I'd like to thank you for sharing your expertise to the repair tech world. Your advice has been invaluable. I've made better repairs ever since finding your videos and always get excited when a new on pops up.

You make it look so easy! Great job, I'm sure we will run into this issue eventually and now I know how to fix it! Thanks!

[@coltonbostick1997]

Really appreciate your videos Sir!

[@liviotherealtor]

Absolutely excellent. Thank you so much you’re the man.

Love the commentary, much more usefull than a crappy soundtrack of substandard tunes.

[@morganadams3100]

Great job . I’m curious what you would do if it was gouged and you had to fill and paint to keep that brushed look.

Excellent Mr. Lockwood! I haven’t encountered any aluminum panels yet but plenty of the fake looking ones both light and dark titanium colors.
One question, on dyeing light colored carpet like shown, do you start with a light coat of white then tan or what is best practice for best coverage?
Thank you for sharing your repair processes!

I usually start with the lightest metallic coater and add a small amount of white or yellow pigment as needed. To thin it out I am using plastic primer. For this vehicle in particular I didn't start from scratch but happened to have a leftover from a previous carpet and glad to find another use for it!
Thanks!

I think factory anodized aluminum woul look a lot better.

[@a.r.t.srealrepairsforrealc8247]

Thanks. The flaking is the factory clearcoat coming off. So here we are restoring it to original. If the OEM was only anodized it wouldn't be peeling which, yes, would be another option for the manufacturer.
