Big respect to you of putting this video up. I work with 30 painters and they all want to see each painter fuck up.
Grate video
+adam pye wow that's sad man! I'm glad that I'm not one of them and you can learn from me! Thanks man!
Same here in germany Adam..
they all Think their paintjob looks better if mine is not perfect..
Thats so stupid BS :/
I am amazed that he was able to keep his composer that well, the best part is their is gonna be multiple people that think it's a good idea to try
This is a good tip nothing wrong with getting a run once in a while everyone get them it matters how you finish it at the end of the day! I wish i worked at a good place like this where i was free to just do the jobs unfortunately my boss is an A hole and if you get a little run he gives you hell for two days 🤷♂️
That A hole !!
It is called letting the razor blade shave off the excess clear coat down to the existing level of the finish. Going outside the existing sanded portion of the project area that has already been sanded is called feathering or blending in the edges so that there are no noticeable edge lines.

Great Videos. You are super talented. Whoever makes negative comments is wrong. Sharing ideas and methods learned from other talented people is what inspiration is all about. We never stop learning a craft. Keep it up!!!!
Great video. No clowning around or other "entertaining" BS, just good detailed down to earth instruction. Thank You!
I've never tried the razor blade method, but my next big run I will try it, I tried the putty method a couple of times, the first time with the putty my clear coat was still a little soft and the putty reacted and melted through the clear, so after that I stayed away from putty, I use a razor blade method for catty filler (I think you call it bondo) on bonnet/hood, stone chips/road rash, same idea filler on, scrape it down then sand, I'll give this a try,.. door handles are a pain that's where it runs for me, most come off easy now a days, or I flip mask around it Good video and what ever way works for that person to get to the same finish line, to know different methods is priceless
Never apologize for how long a video takes. If people don't want to learn from a 45 minute video on real life paint correction then perhaps they don't have the patience to actually do it. It takes major failures and major patience to do anything involving automotive repair in general. I've been 3/4 finished with the process you've shown and went through the clear. Oh well repaint time. Worth a try.
+M Sanchez wow thanks man thank you very much for that I really appreciate comments like this!
M Sanchez that is true people watch those custom car shows and things where they take a POS and make it a bad ass work of art at the end of the 30 min show and think the whole thing took no time when in reality it probably took months and months to complete
The actual act of painting something takes no time the prep to get it in the booth and after it comes out is the time consumer
M Sanchez anytime you have clear coat run offs you can just wet sand straight with the 1500 grit or 2000 sand paper . Everyone has different ways to handle these matters . We live we learn . This channel is real educational tho
+Scdavid323 thanks man !!
3m if you check their tech info they say “new and improved trizact” and the 1500s are to be used dry and I’m not surprised they changed their tune because wet they used to quite often disintegrate leaving little pieces of the grit stuck in it causing pig tails all over
Thank you for this video. I just did my first paint job on my car in my garage. It turned out pretty good, other than several clear coat runs. This helped me out tremendously. I can't thank you enough.
great video, in the middle of some paintwork on my own car, got carried away and have some runs. this is very helpful! thanks.
Haha I like the new jaded Gabriel love the sarcastic negative jabs it was awesome !!!
those 1500 grit mini cube blocks are awesome.The oldschool metal ones with the grater you pushed in one direction worked great to.
Again great job Gabreil as always when your done it looks great thx for all the tips i appreciate it
Hey Gabriel thanks for the video man I was waiting for this one! watched the whole thing! Looks great.
+marcus jenkins thanks man!!!! I'm glad it helps!!!
Omg! That run wasn’t horrible, but by the end I never would have suspected it was ever there. Great job! Thanks for posting.
Thanks for the tips 👍 it’s definitely going to help
Awesome work man I love how your not afraid to admit when you have a stuff up 👍
+Michael Woods I know we all do it and have our days so I will not hide it 😊 specially if it can help people!
Good morning Gabriel. What a great save. Menzurnz polish and Flex buffer. I will have these products this week. Thanks for a great video. As usual, really great tips, tricks, and techniques. Take care.
+Steve Janka thanks my friend glad it was useful!
Great content and love the commentary.
You did the same thing I do on show cars,great job. Don t worry about haters out there keep doing you. Quality comes down to the person and it shows. Thumbs up
+812STUDIOS wow thanks man!! I really appreciate that!
Thanks for the tips!
The best video ever. Thank you
Thank you for your video, I have learned a lot.
Great video 👍 Keep up the good work
Great Video. Step by Step without editing. I did the exact same thing on my Clearcoat pass: To close, to heavy.
Keep it up mate, looks really good. I know nothing about paint work but have really learnt from this. Thank you.
+Mark Delport wow awesome man!!!!!
Awsome work man....great live video and thanks for pointers on what to look for...keep up the work
+yup duece dekgado wow thank you souch man!!!
Great video. You do amazing work!
Thank you so much !!
Amazing video I did my golf R it came out perfect!!!!
The best professional I've ever seen. and I saw many. I understand your advice better than in my own language
Haha thank you!!🥰
Great video very good job thanks for posting
Grabbing the razor lower and wetting the area during use was gold thank you. You should try the motorguard brand run blockers. Its a set of 3. They are $24 USD. Made of aluminum but with a smaller footprint so to speak. When I get runs I go straight for 2000 3M paper with those blocks. Then I go with 3000. The cheaper clear I use doesn't like to be corrected at all. Let alone with anything coarser than 2000.
I like to use a Sharpie as guide coat, works well, and for small areas I use the 3m perfect it denib kit
That’s the way I was thought to do it and I feel like it’s the most effective way to remove a run
Great vid as always, super in depth details 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
+Simon Frostick thanks man I really appreciate that!!! 😊😊
I like the way you shoot the videos with a GoPro. I have thought about doing that for a while now. I refinish pianos. There are lots of 90° angles and stuff where runs like to happen. It's impossible to get a buffer anywhere near some of those places. I've discovered you can use a nib file and knock down little drips and buff them out with your finger
Looks great thanks for the vid
+MrFireman164 thanks brother!
Thanks for the Video Sir really helpful will be finishing up Autobody Paint and Repair training in May,had a few runs with clearcoat was able to properly correct my error thanks to your how to video. Thanks alot
Awesome!!!!
Very useful and very impressed, thank you! Now I know how to do it, I just need your patience!!😇
Hahaha
very clean job well done
Thanks brother !
Great video Gabe, thanks for sharing your process, nice job brother, I’ve always done the putty trick, I get a bit crazy with a blade in my hand lol,
+richiet74 😂😂😂 thanks bro!
This is a great experience, i really learn a great trick today, you never too hold to learn. i love that demo, i learn a lot bless.
Thank you!!
A lot of work for sure but the time it saves buffing is well worth it. Great tip on polishing off the edge and not toward it.
+PainterFRO 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Great tip again! I use to put some tape over the corners of the cutting egde to only use the mid section as a "scraper" and not accidently cut into the clear with the blade's corners. Sometimes you don't put the blade on all flat and miss the angle just so slightly, which makes you kinda "cut" the clear with the blade's corners. Better be safe and tape them if you just start to learn using this method!
take some 320 or 400 grit put it on the window on your booth and sand the corners down works wonders
Thank you so much for sharing this information. Just what I needed. Beautifully explained. Cheers...Love you too :)
Wow so happy it helped 😭😭😭
As long as the contour of the panel allows it, this is the only technique I use. Awesome page man 👍🏻
+Glock23likeMike thanks so much man I appreciate your comment!
Thanks for the video. I need to remember, that when I feel I’m done, I just keep going 😎
Those 3M trizact pads are awesome. Pricey but definitely worth it. Great tip about wiping the sanding grit off of the panel before moving to a higher grit. Thanks for taking the time to make this video and sharing your knowledge!
+da teatorjr yeah they are great! Thanks brother!!
MOTIVATED PAINTERS oh and like you said, when you think you’re done keep going. Hahaha! Ain’t that the truth!!
+da teatorjr yeah 😂
The first time I used that 3000 grit trizac i fucking jizzed my pants. 1500 trizac to 2000 norton softpad to 3000 trizac soft pad changed my life and bank account.
Nice job bro it work for me.
love your videos, its been helping me alot at work!
+04av6 awesome !!!!!
i have another question bro, what causes pinholes in the clear? I have had this stressful issue on the last two cars I worked on. After prepping, dewaxing the work panel, making sure no dirt or chemicals left on the panel, I paint, wait for paint to dry, then clear. Once I clear and its baking, I see tiny pin holes start to form a little underneath the clearcoat. I tried sanding it down but its way below the clearcoat. Do you think its because I first coat with a light dusting? I dont think it could be a reaction to anything.
+04av6 depend on what clear you are using. What you are seeing it's called Solvent Pop and its course by to much clear to fast and bake to fast. You really should look at the technical data sheet for whatever clear you are using and follow it. For example if I don't let ten minutes flash in between one of my clears then that happens
Good news/bad news:
Bad: I had to try your method
Good: it worked awesome.
Instead of the razor blade, I used a carbide block made by Festool. Really liked the way it shaved.
Thanks for the great video and tips!
Looks good!
You are really the best👌Since im looking your vids some things are much easier to do. Tnx
+matic brate haha thanks man!!! 0 😊😊😊😊
Nice...learned a lot! I got some runs in a gas tank I painted with single stage urethane and had to hang the tank vertical to paint. I went too heavy, and should have waited longer on the tack time between coats--and because I don't have a booth, painting outside...you get the idea. Anyway...I could wet sand and re-shoot the top 1/2 of the tank.....but...wanted to try to get the runs out first, and I learning to deal with these mishaps, evolve the old grey matter. Anyway....thanks for spending the time for showing all your steps...and no, your video wasn't too long. Adding all the details helps the novice trying to learn. Kudo's
Haha it happens! Thanks so much !!!!😍
Great video man. Thanks
+Pete Hicks thanks dude I appreciate that!
Great vid man very informative
+Bryan Milelr thank you!
Brillant job, thank you Colin from Somerset England
Much love !
Great video..thanks
Thanks for the video ,nice work
Thank you !
thanks for sharing !!! Wish me luck on my "runs" tomorrow :P
Get it done
I just use 800 grit with small hard block, then work my way up to 1500 or 2000, works like a charm every time.
came out really good
+dasgreen 😀😀😀
Awesome vid, thank you very much, keep up the good work. Everyone gets runs, if you don't you're not trying hard enough. God bless
+Dennis Keys that's right haha thanks man!!!
That what i always say as well!
Dennis Keys true I been painting for over 20yrs and still get runs from time to time, you just can't control gravity thats what I tell myself😁
+watever haha correct!!
There is a fine line between a couple runs and making your paint job one big run. The closer you are to running a paint job the better it is going to look
I like using this trick, I don’t have as much finesse so I tape the corners of the blade so I don’t make any surprises for myself lol
Top video. Great tip on removing a run :)
+Chris N thanks man!!
I always see your videos. Bravo big like from your Roma (gipsy) friend from macedonia 👍🏻
+thebmw7 wow so cool! Thanks my friend!!!
I use the same method when I have to do this, I personally don’t use a DA. But that’s preference. I also try to keep my sanded area as small as possible to avoid changing the peel I tried to match to the vehicle. Great information for others, nice work!
Thank you!
" Great information for others" Freagin know it all.
I run alot, its always too cold painting in new england winter conditions. Those caps i cut off from the run, i call contact lenses haha.
JFabrication it does suck painting in new england with no booth!
Majik Kasja thats the struggle
I switched to a fast catalyst and it helps. Cold here too!
Great work. I'd invest in some higher quality microfiber towels from detailing specific companies. Also the 3M pads are okay but you could try Lake Country pads as well for the flex. Awesome to see you using the menzerna line of polishes as they are MUCH better than the 3M perfect-it system. Very little dust, long working time and even the heavy cut compound actually finishes down well on most surfaces.
Very useful information
Nice man.. i love wet sanding buffing..
+jay pills haha 😀😀😀
That was a awesome Job..
Thanks !
PERFECT
Great video of course! I am curious if you ever get pigtails using the DA? I can’t seem to avoid them even using Trizact with interface pad and distilled water in spray bottle.
Sometimes I see some but not often I don't use an interface pad though
Awesome ☺️
Muito legal o método, obrigado!
+Alison Silva 😁😁😁😁😁
Thank you very much. It's especially nice that you didn't edit your video. So many videos are so edited that you don't get a real sense of the struggles and details to get through the entire project. Thanks again, great video.
Thanks so much brother !! Glad you like it !
Nice
Very cool 👏👏👏
you can also put a piece of quarter inch masking tape on both sides of that razor blade works a bit better imo.
Great video 👌🏻👌🏻
+michael carey awesome! Thank you!
good job brother👍👍👍
Thank you!!!
Quiet on the set! We're filming here!
Do you ever do an alcohol wipe to make sure there aren't any scratches that were filled?
Also, how did you cut the cap off the run without leaving a divot? Looks great and chock full of great info.
+Kent Buehrer HAHAHA you funny! Sometimes I have screwed it up like that yeah! It's important to keep it as flat as possible
great video....got to get a fairly large run out on the door jamb...never tried a razor but I'm going to now! What backer pad is on your DA when using those 3m pads?
These 3m polish pads are double sided and have a snap system in the middle
Thanks
I use a dirt nib shaver for this. No chance of digging in. It's like a tiny file attached to a piece of wood.
Awesome
Stay positive keep growing subscriber's and do some live video's bro!!!
+JBIRD575 thanks man!! I'll try!
Plz can u do a review on the 3m accuspray gun !?
+Sahdat awadat I will do one soon! There are plenty of reviews on that gun here on youtube that's why I haven't done it what you think?
what orbit is the da 5mm 2.5mm?
How many coats of laquer did you put on?
When you think you're done, keep going! Great advice for the bedroom
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome upload bro i use the same process except i dont use 5000 mainly because my shop doesnt have any :( keep up the good Work and God Bless You
+marina m thanks bro!!!! 😀😀
What’s the cause of pigtails with using 3M sanding pads? We use the dry pads with the powder on it so we don’t have to use water.
super !
Very nice class..and the narring too..cuidate mcho
Do you think if you just used compound and polish and kept buffing that it would come out, after much longer of course. Scared to use sand paper. Just got my truck back from the body shop and there’s a very small run and I don’t think it’s worth taking it back
Absolutely not a chance I would not recommend that at all. Runs have to have to have to have to get sanded or left alone haha
We do this at my shop as well. I like to tape the edges so the blade doesn't cut in.
The edges of the blade or the edges of the run?
Blade
I just run the sharp corners of the blade on the floor round them out no dig in issue I also bend the blade just a wee bit seems to make it cut easier. We call getting runs marathoning around the shop.
Completely blew me away. The aggressiveness scares me but this video has shown me not to be scared to attack the job the way you did. Thanks for the education.
Your welcome 😀
Don't know if you ever tried it. Mix up a small amount of poly filler and spread it thin over the run. Block wet with 400 and graduate up to 2000 .. works perfectly with patience every time on any guaranteed!! Try it sometime
+Jay Carr I need to try it I just never have haha
Jay Carr heard about that a lot over the years but never actually had the balls im gonna try it
What brush did you use to clean the pads that you were using?
Tooth brush works fine any firm brush will do
