In this video I am going to not only show you how to repair peeling, chipped or worn out clear coat. I am going to show you how to do a spot repair and blend the new clear coat into the old clear coat. Some might call this a Hack but they will be disgruntled body shop workers :0 joking aside, this is not a long lasting repair and your results will vary based on how bad the clear coat damage is on your car and how much discoloration has resulted on your base coat.

Can you include information about the environment such as the temperature where you are working.
Followed all the steps. Bought all the products you referenced. Turned out great.
This was a very useful and well done video. I truly appreciate your honesty in saying that it's only a temporary fix too. However, in the area where you did the blending, you would have had a better result by using a piece of copy paper or something harder than the shop bag. That way, when you fold it back away from the repaired area, there is more of a curve and the clear coat goes down with more gradient. You will hardly need to buff it at all.
One of the most informative things I’ve witnessed in my lifetime. Great narration, explanations, and insight. Fantastic! Thank You Plenty!!
What happens if I don't use that mask
هذا وعندكم الشمس خفيفه كل يوم امطار لو تجي عندنا يقلب لونها رصاصي زي الكامري ٢٠٠٢
I did this once, and was not long before that new clear coat started to wear out again. I think it has to do with the old clear coat left on the bottom of the new one. For a quick fix it is alright. Wont last long though.
Thanks man great video
This guy just repaired some clear coat failing for about $30. So many car paint experts in the comments talking crap for no reason. The average person wants to fix their clear coat, but don't want to pay $600 to fix a daily driver.
How about gel coats on speed boats… have a boat that has been neglected.. would like to get the shine back. And the sarcasm is so funny.. the middle finger.. good times.
