Transit connect sport accident damage panel repair DTE TV

- What's going on guys, so I've been asked to repair the rear quarter panel on this Ford transit connect.
I'm not doing much bodywork at the moment due to not having my spray booth up and running but my good friend Nathan and bumper2bumper kindly lets me use his from time to time.
It's got multiple areas of damage that need pulling out and panel bearing then filler work and primer to make it right.
It's Ford moon dust silver and silvers can be hard to get right sometime so how did I do.. let's go….

Nothing wrong with a little bit of filler. Think you done a really good job.
Thank you really appreciate that 👍👍
Decent repair that, I’ve just purchased a transit connect same shape as the one in the video and that repair on that back arch is top notch the lines are crisp! I’d be well chuffed if that was my van, shame your garage is too far from where I live as I need a couple of making good areas on my new van! Ah ye 👍🏻🫡😀
15 year vet painter here...colour on the door was already dark to the quarter before you started, I'd put my name on that repair though smart job 💪🏻
Hey bud thank you 👍 appreciate your comment. As you know silver can be a right pain, you can look straight at it and be ok then mover left or right then it look out. I enjoy the body work and have done a fair bit but it’s not my first trade so really appreciate that 👍
Fantastic results there…your work is great as always.👍
Hey bud really appreciate that thank you 👍
Top job, as always no cutting corners and you explain everything, I’d be happy for you to do any of our vehicles
Thank you Richard I appreciate that 👍 as I don’t do bodywork all the time I enjoy a project like this.
Nice Job, I'd be happy with that for sure. Your customers are lucky to have you hope they look after you.👍
Hey Phil thank you sir, I appreciate that and yes a lot of them give me a little tip from time to time. As long as the customer is happy with what I’ve done then that definitely makes the day end better.
I’ve worked in a few body shops & filler work is standard practice,top repair 👍🏻I’d be very happy with it
Thanks mate appreciate that 👍👍
I’m impressed at the detail and perseverance great 👍🏻 job.
Hey bud thank you appreciate that, the customer was super happy so all good 👍
Thank you for the video. Lovely job you did there. Perfect colour match and finish. Silver is a nightmare to match so I take my hat off to you. The owner should be well happy, I certainly would be with that job 👍.
Hey Karl, thank you for that 👍. I was surprised with the colour I really thought I would have to blend the door but it came out good. Niceone for noticing the finish that was straight out the gun no polish. I did do a fade out up the top so gave that a small tickle and polish. Thank you again sir 👍
Nice repair... prep is the game changer and makes you stand out from other small garage repairers... you should put your business address down..... or give us a clue if your not allowed too by You Tube rule... so we can Sherlock you..😉
Absolutely stunning job...😉
Bloody marvellous what u did there chap
Nice work Sir. Your panel beating looked spot on to me. I agree, you could easily spend another few hours on it, but it was never going to be PDR, so a skim or two would always be the order of the day. Finished van looks good. Many vans wouldn't get repaired.
Hey Karter thank you mate 👍 I think it’s the inexperienced that give the hate for filler as they think every panel beater does it with none just because they saw a video or 2 on Instagram with no filler. Thank you again 👍
dobo just gets better and better keep up good work old lad
Niceone bondi appreciate that mate 👍👍
Tidy job there,absoulutely spot on,like you say,far cheaper than a new 1/4 panel,even,sometimes new panels aren’t perfect 👌
Hey Ian thank you mate 👍 if a panel unbolts then I’d stick a new one on but cutting a rear quarter off and replacing is a big job so if it can be saved then I’m all for it. Thank you 👍
another brilliant video you am a very skilled man. same as always you tell it the way it should be done. brilliant job on the van
Thank you mick, appreciate that 👍 I try to be straight up, honest and clear with anything I’m doing. If people can pick up a few tips and tricks then happy days. Thanks again sir 👍
Top job DTE looks spot on 🔝👊🏼
Niceone bud appreciate the comment 👍

Thanks John appreciate that mate 👍
No idea why you aren't at 100k subs. Your channel is brilliant. Keep the content coming.
Hey bud appreciate that a lot 👍 if you fancy sharing the vid on Facebook or something that be great. Again thank you
Man you had me going when I first seen transit connect lol but what a fantastic bit of bodywork there, shame your not closer to me got a few bits for you lol, keep them coming sir.
Haha nigel i did wonder what you might say when i uploaded a different connect video. Thank you for the comment I enjoy the bodywork but my small workshop gets to much when doing mechanics and bodywork so I only do it now and again. What part of the country are you from then? Have I asked before sorry if so.
Tob job
Loving your work
Hey bud thank you appreciate that 👍
subscribed mate, really enjoying the content, keep it up 👍
Hey Tommy thank you sir appreciate the comment 👍
Hammer skills making it look easy. Silver is so hard to match. I would be well made up with that job great work 👍
Hey Mike thank you mate 👍 customer was happy so all is good.
great job i learnt tons in this video / im doing mine similar dent / awesome
Hey Brian thank you glad the video is useful 👍
Nice job 👏
Niceone Jeffrey 👍 thank you sir..
absolutely normal repair procedure there and a good job too brother been in the game a long time and theres nothing wrong with that!! like you say yes you can spend days metal finishing but the job wont pay its worth it great work and great video 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Hey grant thanks buddy 👍👍 I’ve seen a few vids on here people slating loads of filler but what they don’t know is most repairs are done this way. It’s only the bad repairs that blow out and crack that they notice most cars have got filler up them some where Unnoticed.
Quality job, I worked in a main vauxhall dealer when I was younger, you should have seen how much filler we put in stuff! JEESSUUSS!!!! Well done bro 👏
Thanks rich, I’ve heard some horror stories from the big companies. I understand how most bodywork jobs are fixed but there is stigma over filler as the people that don’t know think every panel damage should be panel beaten to mint yet there’s just to much time involved. Ps I saw my sticker man today I have loads coming and your first on my list, I fired my elgrand up earlier they are so comfy inside.
@@YTDTETV Arnt they just bro!!! Arnt they just!! Like I said we STUPIDLY, GREADILY OR JUST IN LOVE have 4, 2 e50s and 2 e51s. I could do with a bit of advice tbh about the e50s as that's why I first ever started watching, if I send you my number on insta would you mind having a chat 5 mins when you get a chance? Would appreciate that! And as I've waited an age, I think 2 stickers! 😄 🤣 😂 one for the elgrand amd one for the 205gti 306 gti 6 swapped 🔥👌😜
@@richnorth3100 cor you do have a collection 👍, the rear 2 seats in the e50 are just pure luxury, when me and the boys go on an explore they are fighting over the rear 2 seats 😂. Ye course mate send it over I’ve only ever worked on my elgrand but sure I can help. You can have as many stickers as you like mate appreciate the support for the channel 👍
@@YTDTETV appreciate it bro, really do! I'll sticker my fleet! Haha looking forward to a chat bro, any time 👌
Just brilliant .
Thank you Phil really appreciate that 👍👍
Would deffo be happy with this, looks fresh.
Niceon sham appreciate that 👍

Niceone Scott 👍
I wish you were in northern england brilliant job well done ✅
Hey Micheal thank you sir, I’m sure down some backstreet there’s someone like me. Appreciate the comment 👍
Where are you Michael? In west Yorkshire Wakefield 👌
I live in a place called Wigan in-between Manchester and Liverpool
@@michaellittler2616 yeh I know it were over that way quite a bit for work. Hope your well buddy 👌
@@michaellittler2616 I’ve been to Wigan can’t remember what for, definitely a few miles away from me I’m 10 minutes down the road from dover.
Proper job that’s how I would of done it,,theres only so much dent you can get out, i light skin of filler is needed regardless what these dent repair blokes say, nice one
Thank you mate appreciate that 👍
skillz.
id love to get my van straightened out but i just couldnt trust anyone would do it properly
Hey bud thank you appreciate that 👍 if you do look around for someone to do it have a look at their recent work and maybe you’ll find someone 👍
nice job 🤪
Hey bud thank you appreciate that 👍
Filler still has a bad rep because people tend to use it over rust where obviously... its going to bubble and pop through again. met silver is the devil's paint when it comes to matching ... you did well there dude! 😎
Hey bud.. yes I’ve seen a fair few cars where rust had been filled over and the popped, I let my filler go off for as long as possible then same again maybe longer for the primer and it doesn’t pull in or sink. I have seen all types of report looking paint and I don’t want mine to look like that in time. I’ll post a picture up of the rear quarter in a few months when customer comes back for a service. Yes your right silver can be so hard, you could have literally the same paint in the gun yet paint it at a different pressure or lay it on at a different angle and the colour would look out. Thank you appreciate the comments 👍
Yes, I'd be more than happy with that 👍 I only wish a repair I had done around 7 years ago was as good as your repair. The paint on my repaired rear quarter which is also silver has started to go very "strange" It looked ok paint finish wise when it was done but looks bad now over the repaired area. It was a nasty bit of damage and I reckon it's full of filler rather than beaten out ( I've had a magnet on it 😁) Would an old repair be possible to re done from scratch do you think ? I mean all filler removed and the panel properly beaten again ? It's great seeing your repair on the time lapse. The owner of the van should be well happy with that. I'd be over the moon.
Hey Matt thank you mate 👍 yes if filler is really thick and it wasn’t left long enough to properly go rock hard it can sink over time then that makes the paint suck in and look ropey to. Yes a good body shop will just hit it with a grinder and remove all the filler and start again no problem 👍
@@YTDTETV Good info there mate Thank you 👍 It does look ropey now, sort of patchy and like someone has scotch brite'd over it lol. The repair wasn't the best but it was a nasty dent. I think they just clagged it rather than knocked it out. Keep up the good work mate, I'd like to see more body work videos 👍
Yep, perfect, peace ✌️.
Thank you Simon 👍👍 appreciate that.
Nice clean job there , how did you match the paint , I’ve got a very similer job to do on my t5
Hey gaz thank you I literally gave my paint supplier and I got lucky, if you go to a big body shop alot of them have spray out cards and you can pick one that’s close or the same 👍
Great finish what gun did u use🤔👍
Hi bud thank you 👍👍 I have the sata jet 5000 for laquer and use Debvilblis red gun for base. Appreciate the comment.
Happy🤓
Niceone francis 👍
How many coats of lacquer did you put on. I have just had a repair done on my van (same colour) and it stands out a mile. It was done by a professional garage 😊
Hi bud I put 2 coats on this 👍 sorry to hear your repair isn’t up to par.
How much would something like that cost
Hey bud obviously depending on where you take it, could be between £5-800
@@YTDTETV Great video and really informative. Just out of interest how much (roughly) would it have cost to replace the damaged panel?
@@Jonathan-jd2ql at a guess I reckon the panel would be £1500 from Ford and maybe that again to fit and paint 👍
Top job I’d be happy if it was my van 👍
Hey bud thank you appreciate the comment 👍
