Aluminum HVAC tape, saves alot of effort and last a verry long time as a backer.
Tried your tip and it worked well! I just had to make sure the surface was free of grease and it stuck great.. thanks for sharing
That worked out pretty good. A couple extra steps that might be helpful would be to lightly tap the hole panel to knock off any rust scale on the inside and then tap down the panel a little bit around the holes to get a little thicker patch. Love your channel.
Great ideas! Thanks for watching
And use tiger hair glass on first coat
I like mixing filler on sheet metal, when I’m done I clean it off with acetone or thinner and reuse the sheet metal for a long time.
Auto Body cock works good for filling small holes like that too in it seals well
I use a mirror
I use a large metal putty spreader to mix on
I just usually sand it down with 80. Been using my pan for a long and was passed down by my dad and he had it for a while
Great idea. Just about to start minor body work for the first time
I use low expansion spray foam for backing ..as well fills voids so water can't penetrate in...works great .cheers
i can only disagree with you. Those foams are great hard sponges that soak up water and your work is toast.
I've watched this video 4, or, 5 times. My 2004 Cavalier needed taken care of (Lower Panels behind doors). Your video has been extremly helpful and the car is looking much better. Though more time would of produced a nicer out come, it is some of the best body work I've ever done. The one of you painting the blue fender is another one I've watched several times and will a few more, as the project is wrapped up. Have a nice morning!
You are the Best teacher. Regards from Poland
If the holes are as big as a deck of cards can you still use that mesh or should it be metal?
Ayo BRAIN! Not a typo. If you put out a repair/paint manual like Haynes that covers how to paint, prep and fix all paint related issued on all materials, I'd swear buy it in a heartbeat. Your skills are top notch for sure!
Thanks for the info, really helped as I have a 1979 t2 bay vw that needs work and I can't afford it to be welded.
I'll keep watching. Keep up the great work. Chris from the uk
Best autobody repair videos on youtube right here
This is really helpful thank you. I have done this a few times but your tips will make it much better next time.
Great tutorial. Always been thinking of trying some minor body repair. Thanks.
Awesome. Gonna try that this weekend on my rear panel! Looked easy enough.
Brilliant. Very helpful. I guess Waxoil would be a good thing to spray onto the back. I used some on an MG Midget in the 80’s and it is still going strong in UK weather.
We just got a Corolla for our daughter that has a rust hole because the previous owner decided not to fix paint damage after a collision… I used for video using rattle cans in the past (2k clear) and it turned out amazing. I love you videos and I can’t wait to tackle this new project car.
I've had excellent results w/ similar rust. Pound the rust hole in, use por 15 & apply in hole w a acid brush & finish w duraglas. Worked very well
Thank you so much Brian! I'm learning alot from your videos!!
Great video showing how to DIY that rust away!! Thats the way I learned when working with my dad flipping cars.
Guys like this go straight to heaven!
At 1:10 I see some holes in the back panel that are covered with plastic caps. Maybe those can be used to access the inside surface and spray some rust converter. Also, instead of cardboard, a clean, plastic dustpan can be used... most people have those in the house I think.
perfect timing I'm starting small repairs at home on a '96 Silverado Light Stellar Blue Metallic
Thank you for this having a hard time applying body filler to holes and scratches. Glazing putty is what I need. Love paint society! Keep up great work
Glazing putty is NOT for filling holes. It's used for leveling out sanding imperfections/swirls, and small dings.
Don't use it to fill holes, it won't last.
Watch alot and I'm a sub. Love your videos. I've not painted as much as you but I've restored so many antique tractors, oil well engines, Heavy Equipment, Cars, trucks etc. I know a lil bit. Why not use some reformer or acid on the rust you can't get to with a 360 nozzle to kill the rust? At 14 I helped my dad restore a 1949 chevy truck. Under the rear cab window is a seam that is rolled so you can't even get totally inside of it with a sand blaster, which is what we used. An old man told us to use Ospho. Had no idea what that was. My dad used Rust Mort I think it was called, 28 years ago, but thought the blaster was good enough. Was for about 4 years and we noticed rust. Now we used a syringe and Ospho yo get in there and kill it and we did. No rust now for decades. Even if you gotta drill a small hole or larger one and use a body plug and a small brush to seal edges of hole. Just a thought. I see alot of spot on repairs but ppl leave rust, small tiny pits with rust. I can tell you what happens in a few years, especially in a salty environment, if I can't get rid of all the rust however, it always comes back. Always. Acids get a bad name cause ppl don't use them properly, or use on bad paint. Gotta make sure whatever it is to read and do what is said. Ospho has to be rewetted, let sit for a few minutes and then clean with plenty of water and soap if u like. Then dry 100% with air or heat and then spray epoxy, or whatever primer you want. I have engines and autos from 2 decades ago and no rust still. I believe in Ospho and products like it. I also use products from eastwood that make a job like this easier to get rid of or convert rust for a worry free repair. Not a criticism, just a question for you.
This video brought me back to my roots. Loved the video just subscribed 👍
Tx for the video. I’d like to add that I saw plastic plugs on the backside of the panel that you might be able to get access to get a vacuum with a small hose attached to get some rust out and possibly scrape some rust. Also then you can get some used motor oil and spread it around to help with slowing down rust
I like your content where it is just DIY stuff in the home garage. Thanks for posting. 👍
Awesome work. Love the channel.
GOOD JOB LOTS OF VALUABLE INFO; THANK,S BRIAN
Well done, Thank you.
You the best bro thanks alot this really help me👍👍👍👍
Great video. Thx for making this vid.
Great tutorial video 🤝🏽
Grest video. Great job. And......I am pleased that you mentioned after all your good work to apply some protective coating on the inside through a small hole on this job. I have sprayed rust converter on the inside before patching to kill any surface rust. And after the job is completely finished I use a product called Fisholine. Fish oil. It creaps every where and retards rust for decades if applied well.
Excellent instruction once again. Thank You TP
Love you new intro ! Still rocking the merch ! I’m also painting full time at my work place now . Thanks to you and the paint society !!
Awesome !!
Slick thanks for your time 🙂
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO IT IS MUCH APPRECIATED!
Great video tutorial!! This probably what I'll need to do to my e46 arch and sill of its not spread or gone too deep just bubbles to look at so far! 🤞🙏🙄🤦🏻😅😂
Cheers from London England 👍😎🏴
Did a beautiful job!
Good job sharing
Thank you good job.lot's to learn
Good trick with the spring putting the backing mesh in it.
You did awesome job.
Great video. Thanks.
I now clean the area, cut out rust, dent in the edges, use JB weld to epoxy in a steel patch staying under the surface level then fill it with body filler, have used the fibre reinforced body filler to fill holes before as a stand alone filler with no issues and the repair lasted lifetime of car.
Love your channel!!
Fantastic! Thanks
Nice job 👌
Great video!! Thanks
awesome video ! 😉
Thank you awesome tips
I just used this product as well!
Works wonderful!
This has been the best product I’ve found, much like Devcon filler used for aerodynamic fairing on aircraft. I love this stuff for solid repairs.
Doing good job my friend
I don't know where this channel has been ALL my life! Subscribed! Thank you!
Very good
@PaintSociety Hey! I have a hole like this in the lower quarter panel of a truck box. Very similar but i have access to the back side of the panel. Would it make sense to use one of these adhesive patches on the inside and leave that patch exposed or how would you cover the patch!? I unfortunately dont have access to weld and trying to avoid replacing the panel...
Thanks, good jobs
Very nice video. Can this same process be done if I wanted to shave my radio antenna on my fender or the hood washer squirters?
Nice job
Great video! All I can really add to this Is there is some plastic caps you could pop off on the underside ( 1:07 )and spray in some rust inhibitor it's not ideal but it would help seal it up and slow down the rust coming back through
Yes that's what I asked. I get its a quick repair and not a Lambo but rust has came back to bite me in the butt later and I always kill all the rust no matter how small or minor. In the rust belt if you leave any or bare metal your auto will fall apart. It's a battle.
You don't need to put self itch primer on bare metal?
Great lesson on home /garage body work, I’m doing a old Kombi slowly with that metal filler,it’s great when carnt weld
Any lessons on two tone painting
Thanks again
Roy from Australia
Thank you
Thanks buddy!!
Thank you so much. This is a really good and detailed video. I really appreciate it. Thanks again
Very nice demo,
ciming from a boat back ground, on my farm truck i used fiberglass with epoxy resin to create a backer for larger holes. then used jb weld then filler
That was awesome...
Good stuff
Thank you very much for this video, i learned a lot. 😊
Learning a bit from every video. What sanding grit was used to get to bare metal? Thank you.
I believe he said 80, you can go even coarser like 40 if you have it, quicker and better adhesion.
Love It !!!!!
that.s bad ass sander i need to get one of them
Knew you was a body man when you started wiping the mud on! Thanks for posting!
I am curious about using JB Weld or something similar on rusty pitted areas that are under trim.
I have a rust hole the exact size and shape of my rocker panel… I’m gonna give it a shot
Greetings from Poland. To make it in accordance with the technology, you would need to spray epoxy on the sheet and then putty on it. It is worth it even if the putty is "water-resistant", i.e. without organic fillers. The use of UV lamps with each application does the trick. Technology with epoxy will extend the anti-corrosion resistance more than twice as compared to putty alone (e.g. Sickens). The basis is: epoxy and a UV lamp.
Great work thanks 🙏🏾
Best will in the world this is not a repair it's a disguise!!!!!!
Can I use this bondo to fill small nicks and dents or do I need another filler??
thanks
I find a disposable plastic dinner plate is ideal for mixing the bondo.
Kinda disappointed bondo doesn't sell that metal reinforced fillers in a 55 gallon drum for the folks here in the salt belt.
Great Video.
Brian I had a similar situation like this and the rust bubbled back through in 2 years. What is a product that is a true rust encapsulator that rust won't be able to push back through? Fiberglass resin? Do you have to coat each side of the panel to truely encapsulate the rust. i know eastwood has a product but it is 1K and I don't trust anything that is a 1k for long term durability. Thanks.
Do you think it would be better to use self etching primer before bondo
When you started applying the filler over holes .. I started laughing... 😅😅😅😅 because someone recently I knew stripped a Rocker panel down... and when he was grinding.. he saw someone put a 2×4 underneath the body filler 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Once I do this, how long do I have to get the base and clear coat on?
What were the items that was not listed like the puddy and the hardener what are they called
Up here in Wisconsin you'd be able to fit a baby in the hole this is in that area on those trucks.
I had similar holes and used this method. One thing I did was spray some rust encapsulator in the holes (Eastwood) to minimize future rust encroachment.
can we use this product on places like firewall? its label does not specify temp-range. thx
Hey Brian great video. Is the etching can primer a 2k primer as well?
Also, if i was to strip the whole car to bare metal, do you recommend guide coating all of the panels or is that just if the panel is uneven? Thanks!
Etch is not 2k. Just one part
@@PaintSociety Hey Brian, how long you think this repair will last here in Florida if there’s no rust in the back?
What was the brand name of the glazing putty?
The back of the quarter panel should have a 1 inch hole with a rubber 'plug'. I removed the plug and sprayed the inside of the outer metal with Eastwood rust encapsulater. It comes with a flexible tube allowing you to coat the entire inside. Other comments below seem to have done the same with different products.
Love this! I'm working on a 91 Wrangler with 2 big holes in the rocker panels...thankfully have access to the back side of the hole so I should be able to address the rust from both sides, but I have no welder and no welding knowledge and didn't really care to learn by blowing new holes in my good metal. lol
I love having access to the backside of holes, and I also love plugging/filling holes! 👍
I have fluid film at home can I use it instead of cavity wax?
Would be great if you could explain how to properly fix a rusted spot :) Just like a good body shop would do it.
For that check out garage noise. He has a few good videos currently on that.
@@PaintSociety Thanks! I had a look at Gargae Noise. Very useful videos there. What about small rust bubbles that we all discover from time to time? Those which do not require welding, but still have to be treated well if we don't want them to show up again a year after? i really liked Garage Noise's videos, but most of his issues are a bit more dramatic than what I was asking about :) What I mean is how to handle small rust bubbles discovered in the paint, which not necessarily require any welding...
@@TorgeirFredriksen if you see a rust bubble it's most likely coming from the back side and to repair properly will be treated the same way as a rust through hole... The rust on the backside is always more advanced and worse than what you see from the outside.
Why didnt he show how the guy rolled the mesh and how he placed it behind the hole ?
Can you use spray foam as a backer?
My concern with doing rust repair is addressing the inside of an enclosed area. Have you ever injected a rust converter into the area prior to sealing the outside?
Whats the advantage of the metal strand over the fiberglass reinforced filler? I would think the metal fibers would be more likely to rust over time
It's aluminum filled filler, so it doesn't rust
In addition it is better for those instances when you may need to attach hardware, or drill/tap. Keep fiberglass for the Corvette.
Can this be used on aluminum body panels?
