    Superb video. Very many thanks!
    Your video has now given me a lot of confidence to fix a badly cracked bumper on my Suzuki Jimny.
    I was impressed that you knew to stop-drill the ends of the cracks - very important as it de-stresses the area. Stop-drilling works on cracked metal too.
    Many thanks!

      Drilling the end of the crack is something I wouldn't have thought of. I probably would have tried one sided duct tape and 1 sided fiberglass, then remove the duct tape and do the other side. I have worked with epoxy and have used a digital scale to measure out 2:1, 1:1, what ever by weight, which allows me to make small batches.

    My dude. This is such a great method!! And not to expensive for the shop!! But the second bumper you talked about, the rear side grills are black. And stand out! The long bottom one you should pop out and paint it a good quality gloss black!! It really does make a difference!! I work at a shop to. I fix eeverything that's needs fixing!!

    A ppg rep once taught me that the blue windshield washer fluid from Walmart makes the best wax and grease remover. Wipe on with a blue shop towel and off with another. Try it on your next low end it’s cheaper than acetone. Being a Benz it’s best you used a wipe 👍

    Looks great, love the channel.
    1 tip someone gave me and want to pass on is don't wait for the body filler to completely dry b4 sanding. Instead start sanding with like 80, 100 or 120 grit after 10-15 min when it is firm but slightly tacky. This will allow you do smooth, level blend the filler easier and faster. It will also allow you to see and low or high spots sooner and make appropriate corrections. Anyway this helped me and saved me a lot of extra sanding.
    Thank you again for great videos

  • @josephharrison3639
    @josephharrison3639 5 лет назад +4

    Good job, I could add something that works better for you’r glassing. When patching the
    bumper use a smaller glueing coat of epoxy around the splitting opening. This welds the crack and mesh fiber glass to the splitting bumper. Now use a larger cloth patch to cover over the smaller extending past enough for strength. Remember to use polyester resin with
    this larger cloth patch. The polyester resin has more flex to it. This will allow the repair to
    have more flex as the rest of the bumper has.
