I've no idea why the wing mirrors looked so awful on my BMW 650i in Barberarot Metallic A39 - but I needed to do something about it! I'm using body-colour from Ebay and re-useable clear-coat from Car Rep. And I'm doing the job outside on a windy day.
Body Colour: www.ebay.co.uk...
2K re-useable clearcoat: car-rep.com/us....
Car Cover: amzn.to/43uCMYp

I expected worse comments than I got to be honest - I always do when I paint something because I'm a real amatuer! But, very pleased with the responses.

Hi Timm - I understand your expectations....my mum learned me a valueable lesson : "If you don't have anything positive to say, stay quiet" - that's why I didn't respond :-) I would have had the job done by a pro. - remember, it's a BMW, not a LADA :-) Have a great day - and thanks for all your videos BR Brian

Thanks again Tim, watching you videos always gives me a bit more confidence to tackle jobs that the stealership would charge an absolute fortune for.

Lighter coats, spraying from a bigger distance gives more "factory" looking results with "cans" , speaking from my own experiance, but non the less, miles better than before thumbs up for the effort to show as much as possible, your videos are really cheering up for a car enthusiast as me and diy-er

@@jp3630 it depends on the temperature if it's warm and above. 25° maybe 10 minutes but if it's under 15° c maybe up to 20-30 minutes or more. That's why the video above Tim uses hair dryer to for dry the paint and the lacquer

Hi Tim, great information as usual. I had a similar issue with the cover on one of my side mirrors. It had a nasty gouge from an impact from the previous owner. I searched E-bay and found a used side mirror in the exact color of my vehicle 08 BMW 550i artic white. $65 US I popped the back cover only off and replaced my damaged cover with the used one. Looks fantastic and it's got original factory paint :) Just an idea. Keep up the great videos. I really enjoy them. Cheers

Hi Tim. It looks like you may have fallen foul of the fake commenters, or failing that, some of your old show-business fan club are surfacing! Anyhow, even if you were a professional paint sprayer you will still get comments from people who have never handled a spraygun in their life telling you you are doing it wrong. It's a shame we don't live nearer, it would be an honour for me to help you out with all your paint and bodywork issues. The main thing about doing the painting bits yourself is that they look better than before you started. I see some "professional" jobs that friends pay to have done and they are way off what I would call acceptable. At least you're in southern England. You wouldn't get away with attempting that job outside up here, you would either be rained off, blown away, snowed in or frozen solid, and that's just in the summer!

would it not be better to use a fillier primer first instead of the colour - then give it a light sand and then apply the colour

Another great video. Yes, you could have gave it a better finish with more time and effort but you're on my level with they kind of jobs, a complete amateur, and as you said in the video, you were looking to do a quick repair. I thought it looked very good considering how quickly you done it. 👍👍👍

You can't feather peeled clearcoat without removing the base thats adjacent to it as the clear is much much harder than the clear.

Yes, that would explain what I found - I got right through the base-coat before the clear-coat even flinched!
