![]() ![]() ![]() I get a frantic 911 call from a customer that tells me he backed up into his garage and decided to try to repaint it himself by sanding the bumper with 400 grit sandpaper. Can you believe this? Anyway, I met him at my shop on a Sunday (because he was suicidal)When I got there this is what I saw. I told him he probaly went through the clear coat (da) and after buffing it we will see what we have. After a couple of passes with diamond cut, I saw little improvement. Since he was selling the car, he didn't want to get it painted at a body shop. He asked me if I could. I told him all I could use was spray paint, he was ok with that so I proceeded to wet sand the entire bumper, prepped it with primer. and spray painted it. I must say it does look better, but not something I would do on my car. Here is how it looked afterwards. The moral of the story is??????? I think he knows now. |
