If you are an automotive Do-It-Yourselfer, you have probably wanted to learn auto body repair. There are too many wannabe's that handout the wrong information on how to do auto body repair correctly. This video shows some steps on how to make dent repairs using tools and fillers. The sanding process and spraying primer on a 2002 Volkswagen Beetle.

In this video, I am working on a customer's 2002 VW Bug. The car needed the passenger door replaced, the rocker panel repaired and the rear bumper had peeling clear coat. I go over all three of these type repairs.

You will also see an example of using one of the paintless dent repair tools. If you can pull dents out without having to sand down the paint, the better.

This video goes over some steps in auto body repair but if you are wanting to learn Auto Body and Paint from A to Z and paint like a pro and better than most professional shops, you need to go check out this course.

If you would like to know how to tackle a body job like this either as a one time project or if you are considering making auto-body a serious hobby or even considering auto-body a profession. You can now learn this trade and all the secrets of getting an eye popping finish from your own home and not even at a fraction of what a school would run you. I am promoting two different courses. One is great for a simple project and can put you on your way of painting like a pro, the other is a very in-depth course and can teach this skill as a new trade. Check these out:

I show priming the door panel, I didn't show how many coats. When I do this much body work to a panel, I usually apply three heavy coats. Then block it down by wet sanding it with 220 grit paper. I always use urethane primer and block sanded twice.

This video doesn't go over the painting process, as this is a body work video. I will be doing a video soon on painting, so stay tuned.
