    OEM Honda Bumper Repair - Sprayed White

    Plastic welder, debated using that but decided not to. Those are used here a little too often as an easy way out so to speak. We went with a more "traditional" approach and filled everything. We also got new supplies in and wanted to try things out and see what we could do. I had to...

    OEM Honda Bumper Repair - Sprayed White

    Make sure you sand the factory clear and paint from the spot you melt though. I noticed that when I melt the fiberglass with factory paint on it it'll lift and chip from time to time.

    As far as "getting what I pay for" that's no problem. I'll purchase whatever paint and whatever other shit I have to. I did use stripper. Baked it at 400 (from another guide) Then blasted it with primer. Baked it at 400 again and slapped it down in the garage to cool down. And...

    Thank you for using your head and bringing the topic back up, instead of being a trusty old keyboard warrior. Anyways, for the third or fourth time.. I stripped everything off in the redo, but would the matte stand the heat and last a while ?

    Haha, thanks, I went and grabbed some to get the rest of the paint off. I used latex gloves but it still burned. It took quite a while to get the original paint off though, how much did you apply? Or how much should I apply, as I do intend on painting again.

    Yeah, defied.. I took the criticism only if you weren't a doucher about it. It's a forum, not a roasting session. What a great way to welcome new members. Anyways, I posted a "redo" so go criticize that really quick.

    I didnt heat that either. I have read a different post that recommended baking, but im almost posotive that when you turn your car on, it'll bake itself. I waited exactly an hour. All the paint was dry, and ready to handle.
