In this video I go over how to decrease the chances of Runs when Spray Painting, how to fix runs during spray painting and how to fix runs after spray painting.
Thank you for sharing! Especially the body filler technique and the fact that you shared your knowledge of sand paper grit size by doubling it at each stage. Love it! Thanks you!
This is a great video for novice painters. I had my Jeep painted my a so called pro and I have so many runs in my paint and now its up to me to fix it. I appreciate you kind sir.
Great tip and video! I didn't know that I'm almost finish collision repair school at Lincoln tech and you just showed me something I haven't learn! Thanks keep on teaching!
I use a NIB file, or use a single edge razor blade and wrap a bit of tape around each side leaving only a small spot in the middle of the blade exposed.
Hello, I learned a lot about this videos. Its great how you explaine things about spray painting. In the past i made a lot of mistakes, but now thanks to the videos i feel more confident in painting stuff on my car. A great channel, Big thanks from germany
if i am using the sandpaper wrapped around wooden mixing stick method, what sandpaper grit should i use? i was thinking about using 1000 or 1500 or 2000 but i have no idea. Should i use multiple grits? also if i then re clear the panel, will i have to sand the whole panel or that is not necessary
probalbly late but i got runs on the primer, just to wet sand it a little? also when putting decals on a motorcyle fuel tank, , is it better to put them on the metallic paint or a layer of clear or two, then let it dry and then put two more layers of clear over the decals?
I can tell when the seasons change. In the summer I have to hammer it on. 110 degrees with 90 percent humidity. When it starts cooling off I'll start getting runs. Have to dial it back and go to smaller tips. When its really cold 40 50 it'll look OK then when you make it back around for the next pass 20 30 mins later it start running. Take it easy in the winter and do a thin tack coat. And I'll use a heating pad to heat the paint and hardners on
I repainted my car about a month ago now and I've got some runs in it and dirt so now I need a wet sand it and buff it. Any advice on what grit to use on the runs?
Well thank you so much for explaining this properly, i had major runs on one side because that side of my trunk lit had been sitting in the sun,so today i spend a couple of hours applying putty and sanding it down with 320 wet,and it's almost entirely gone,just need to finish off tomorrow with the 320 untill it's completely flat and then starting to work my way up in sandpaper to remove the scratches and then safe some money to buy a polisher and some buffing compound.So big thanks again, it's my very first paint job at home and the results are quite amazing,i'm doing all this with a lvlp gun, and i can highly advise this type of gun for anyone starting out.👍✌️👉
How long do you have to wait for the clear coat to dry before you can begin to remove the run? I’ve read that a week to fully cure and harden, then also I’ve read that clear coat is not like paint and it can be fully cured and hardened in 20 minutes?
Tungsten blocks have come along way bro...not just your standard square ones anymore. I swear by them. especially the cheaper CRS brand ones. Those and a razor blade with the corners taped up are my go to methods. Cheers mate. Edit. I do understand you are making these videos for peeps who may just have basic tools. But tungsten is the bomb.
What about fixing a run from paint ,not clear coat! I tried to fix it with 1500 sand paper and polishing afterwards but the colour fade into a darker patchy shade.
Hi can you tell me how do I get runs out of single stage colourthane top coat, I painted a hard lid for my sons ute and a few runs down the curved sides 😩
While the clear is wet, lay a piece of tape on the run, run your finger over the tape where the run is then pull the tape off, wait for the clear to flash some. Put some more clear on then the next day all you have to do is cut it a little and buff. Good as new 👌
Ever considered using a small hand held drill with a detail sanding tip. Something like a Dremel. Seems that this might be a faster way to remove dried runs.
hey, got an issue, after i got my car back from the paint shop, there had been some white flaky stuff inbetween the door jams. Wiping off with water does not remove it any help for this?
My situation is that I hand painted several rock chip about 3-5 milliliters big and I had the touch up paint go pass the chip area about 3-5 millimeters more because of using a wrong size of a brush. I was trying to sand it with 3000 grid and its not coming out. Its already flat by wet sanding, but its darker than the original paint. It looks like a round dark spot and its not going anywhere. How can I fix it. Thanks
Forgot about residue on the substrate. Sometimes it's inevitable. Humidity plays a big part in runs as well. I'm spraying right now at work. Industrial painting, no "paint bay" or climate/humidity control in oily greasing beams of steel. It happens.

I don't often get a run in my paint but if I do I use a hair dryer to push the run to the egde and get rid of it that way ;-)
Fantastic tutorials, I love your teaching technique. Thank you

Thanks you for this tip, I restore vintage furniture, and tried this and it worked great
That is such a GREAT GREAT video dude. Its almost 10 videos i watched before yours in 1 and very brief , to the point and clear!!!
Hello,

I PUT MASKING TAPE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE RUN THEN SHAVE IT WITH A SINGLE EDGE BLADE. AND USE THE 3M WET SANDING BLOCK KIT
excellent video mate....definitely the sanding gets the job done perfect. thanks for making this video so detail...keep it up mate
If you're able to replicate it, you can fix it. Nice way of educating newbies.
Paint guru has many solutions for the dread paint run! I will try them out to solve my dread paint run. Thank you sir!
excellant demo, very clever, patience a must when doing this, most helpful
This is very helpful even for spraying small items.
You sir have taught me a lot you are indeed a great teacher thank you so much
i had forgotten how good your tutorials are...
Subscribed. Theory + Practice = Real Knowledge.
Thank you for the video it really helped me out a lot. Much blessings to you 👍🏼
thank you because I'm new at this as you can tell and some of the videos I've watched really don't ever give me any answers so thank you
Very clever thanks! One question.. what's the benefit of using plastic filler?
sensei...thanks for the guide..help me alot
Well Done Dave Great Video
Did you mix the fine body filler with hardener and let it dry ? what kind of foam pad did you use?
Thank you for these tips! Awesome!
Hi, will this also work when you have a run on the paint itself not clear coat? Nice vid by the way.
Whooee, that is one good lookin' fellow. Great training video and very helpful info as well. Thanks!
What brand fine filler did you use for getting the runs out? Is "evercoat glaze 417" the same thing?
how long after spraying the clear and get a run are you safe to apply the filler?
your a great guy, subscribed and very good videos i would love to learn how to spray paint like this
Great job and very helpful!!!
Great job again! Nice vid!

temperature can also affect whether you get runs or not since paint doesnt dry in the cold as fast
Correct, and I’d hope any painter would know that >.

Sandpaper, you mean wet and dry paper,
SPRAY MY TRUCK!!!!! LOL GREAT VIDEO BROTHER!!!
good video, thanks! istead of using bodyfiller you could use some masking tape as well to avoid sanding the area you dont want to sand right?
Matthieu Libeert that may work. Sometimes you may have more than one run but a whole line of runs. Using tape might take forever to mask.
Tape doesn't work well. Gums up the sand paper.
Thanks for your this video. I learned that 1. It will be helpful 😊😊
Great video…. Thanks Dave 👍
Congrats on 100k subscribers Dave!
CS Studios thanks mate. Thanks for always watching and commenting. Every like and comment good or bad drives me to make more.
customspraymods check out my comment.
customspraymods please answer it
Done.
Hello dear, Kindly tell me the types of polisher used in order
Great video! Thanks!
don't spray paint if it's too windy..
If you can't wait get closer to the panel but move quickly with it. Much easier to do this with a spray gun then can.
That’s why I searched for this video😅😂
Hello i jist wanted to ask, can you paint it with clear coat after you sand it?
is it okay if you have a little run and it is not visible from others?
Wow good job bro
I have a medium to small sized run I cant get the wave out doing this, I'm certain I did good body work any suggestion?
Excellent 👍
Brilliant
The video you painted the candy fender. What did you use to separate he colors. Some type of black tape maybe? I asked in that vid too.
Tony Bersaglia replied on the video mate.
customspraymods I saw! Thank you so much! Now I can move forward on my helmet!
thanks man you got skills
Great info Thanks
Nice! Thanks! 💯
Thank you for this video.....
What compounds and pads do you use?
good ! thanks 4 the steps..
for sanding with filler do you have to wait until the paint is dry and cured?
Risk Romer yes I would imagine. Or your gonna have all sorts of problems.
How long do you have to wait for the clear coat to dry before you can begin to remove the run? I’ve read that a week to fully cure and harden, then also I’ve read that clear coat is not like paint and it can be fully cured and hardened in 20 minutes?
You found the answer?
is it necessary to use bondo?
Great sir Thanks
Tungsten blocks have come along way bro...not just your standard square ones anymore. I swear by them. especially the cheaper CRS brand ones. Those and a razor blade with the corners taped up are my go to methods. Cheers mate. Edit. I do understand you are making these videos for peeps who may just have basic tools. But tungsten is the bomb.
I was the king at getting runs, I found you can round off the corners of a new razor blade using some 600 wet/dry paper to scrape away runs
Good video like the filler trick bit risky for me lol I use a mirka shark blade works treat on uhs and HS clear
What was the stuff that you used with the softer pad after the compound?
Foti Karatasakis swirl remover. That was Gelson T57 for dark colours. Great stuff.
customspraymods thanks. Great videos btw!
What about fixing a run from paint ,not clear coat! I tried to fix it with 1500 sand paper and polishing afterwards but the colour fade into a darker patchy shade.
I think base coat is matte so if you havent layer clear yet then just sand it to make it even and spray a coat of base again?
Hi can you tell me how do I get runs out of single stage colourthane top coat, I painted a hard lid for my sons ute and a few runs down the curved sides 😩
Billy Montgomery you can try sand them and buff them out but your better off sanding them out and re spraying the part.
Good job sir
you’re awesome!
Hi， is this paint run from clearcoat? what should I do if during the paint, I found the paint run before clearcoat process. Thanks
Awesome video ! What do you do if you get a run in your base coat ?
Jeff G let it dry. Then sand with 800g wet. Scuff the rest of the panel. Clean and apply more base coat
Thank you for answering my question so quickly and you're awesome and I love your channel .
Hey does this wrong on single stage metallic paint
While the clear is wet, lay a piece of tape on the run, run your finger over the tape where the run is then pull the tape off, wait for the clear to flash some. Put some more clear on then the next day all you have to do is cut it a little and buff. Good as new 👌
Awesome advice thank you so much for sharing your tip
This may be a dumb question but are these processes the same for runs in your base coat?
lance baker no they are not. Just sand the basecoat till the run is out and spray more basecoat being sure to cover the sanded area.
Ever considered using a small hand held drill with a detail sanding tip. Something like a Dremel. Seems that this might be a faster way to remove dried runs.
Did stevie wonder paint these?
Its a great video
hey, got an issue,
after i got my car back from the paint shop, there had been some white flaky stuff inbetween the door jams. Wiping off with water does not remove it
any help for this?
Flaky ? Is it ur clear?
@@franciscomunoz3333 that would be buffing compound
Use thinner, it will usually take out whatever is on in the panel
Ryan Williams he never replied so there's no telling if its sunburn or compound well hope it was compound lol
I like the fact that he had to TRY to get a run, the guy is so good that he had to deliberately engineer the run.
I'm so good, I can get a run with my eyes closed lol
great vid
Very helpful
What if its small scratches.. When you accidentally stick something to the paint that you didnt mean to do it..? That causes small looking cuts?
Sweet Project Cars and ChrisFix cover that on their channel
can you make a vídeo about how to polish? thanks
jose andres giron There's an old old old video they did on polishing
Great video wud u use body filler on any run or just small ones
3re koats kustoms anything even big ones.
Dont use regular body filler... too hard to sand. Use a 2 part glazing/body putty. Much less effort
Mean bro. Kia ora.
good info
may i ask if i going to use masking tape to tape around the run before start sanding the run，will they work as well as using filler？
MiChAeL 黄勤振 that can work but when you sand it the tape will go all funny.
customspraymods will wet sanding may no
cause the tape
to ruim it？
You can try it. But it also happens when wet sanding.
I sprayed a desk top and I can see the lines where I sprayed after 3 coats. It's drying funny or something. How can I fix it?
a group of big runs in the basecoat can be fixed with 600-800 grit wet then compound? ?????
1986Caprice 5.0 sand not then spray the base again.
My situation is that I hand painted several rock chip about 3-5 milliliters big and I had the touch up paint go pass the chip area about 3-5 millimeters more because of using a wrong size of a brush. I was trying to sand it with 3000 grid and its not coming out. Its already flat by wet sanding, but its darker than the original paint. It looks like a round dark spot and its not going anywhere. How can I fix it. Thanks
Try 2000 then 3000 and buff as far as the color match touch up never matches perfectly
Touch up never matches perfectly
Thanks I always enjoy your video .... Very useful (;))
Nice video usefull !!!!!!!!!!
perfect thank you
can anyone help me with a answer can you spray Clear over wet sanded base coat ? because when you wet sand the base coat it's looks dull
Robert Garcia you should spray another coat of base if you wet sand it. Then clear coat.
Nice.
Forgot about residue on the substrate. Sometimes it's inevitable. Humidity plays a big part in runs as well. I'm spraying right now at work. Industrial painting, no "paint bay" or climate/humidity control in oily greasing beams of steel. It happens.
Nice trick with the filler 👍
