How to remove orange peel Videos

Why do cars leave factories with orange peel finish in the first place??

How many hours would it take to do a brand new car? (Mazda3 in my case) My dark blue Mazda3 looks amazing and has the least amount of orange paint of any car I've owned. But I want to take it further and make it mirror like. I just worry about thinning the clear coat

What's the point of a showcar finish on a VW Beetle?

So, is there no way to remove orange peel without sanding down through clear coat? I definitely dont have a show car, but the orange peel kills me. I was thinking a heat gun combined with some way to safely smooth the clear coat after its warmed and then maybe some sort of hardening agent so it won't go back to orange peel when I'm done but I've never heard of anyone doing this and I don't want to f#$% up my paint lol.

That is awesome, I wish I had the balls to try this with my STi.

Great job dear mate. Keep up nice work. Regards,

Very good video!

Hey guys great vid, what buffing pad did you use is that wool?

nice job man, thanks for the tutorial

Your awesome, thank you so much for the tips, i'm going to do this to my car right now. Being that i'll soon be getting my car changed, I think i'll do this for aesthetics then get a paint job at maaco, afterwards once I have my new car, sell or donate. Your work looks great, I hope I can get it the same way. Much appreciated.

the lower u go the sand paper is harder? like 1500 grit sand harder then 2000?

Helpful video funny I just noticed you have on a red and white bracelet. A Bulgarian girl gave me one last march. Interesting tradition wear it for a month than leave it.

very helpful video, thank you a lot!

Sand in one direction its easier to remove ;)

thanx for sharing the video...

Never use any wax or detailer between compounds! You shouldn't use any sealer or wax for at least 2 to 3 months on fresh paint and at least a week on fully cured paint.

Sorry if asked before, what product are you using at 5:20 ? Thanks!

yet another reason not to buy a BMW

While this is a great job in removing orange peel, wet sanding a factory clear coated vehicle is a bad idea. Factory clear coats typically have the same thickness as a sheet of paper. So you're removing a huge portion of the protection your vehicle has in order to achieve zero orange peel. Great for a show car that doesn't see the road, bad idea for an every day driver. On the other hand you did coat it with the C1 crystal lacquer so you'll have some extra much needed durability to go with the insanely thin clear coat.

this is so fucken pointless unless you seal your cars off in a room (collectors) even then its still fucken pointless, you gonna get a car nicely detailed so you can just stare at it and not drive it and worry about a bird taking a shit on it. I mean i undestand loving your car but this is borderline retarded.

autogeek, what is the best way to remove the base-coat. i primered and base-coated on a real windy day last week, and either the overspray came back on top or air or something made the surface (basecoat) pretty rough, kind of like sandpaper. It's white basecoat on a grey primer. i'm not sure how rough the primer is either because i never touched it to see if it was smooth, it just looked like dull grey primer (2 to 3 primer coats), so then i just went ahead with the basecoat (2 to 3 coats) and noticed the bad roughness. I'm trying to wet-sand the basecoat off to get back to the primer but my arm is falling off, ouch! I'm using 1200/1500, then i tried 1000, then i went to 800, but man, i can just barely see grey in a spot or two and i have another large area or two to do this on too. I will say this, the white base coat is much smoother now that i got that top layer off. will i need to sand all the way back down to the filler because it was windy? I'm worried that the primer is rough too but I'm not even down that far yet. I have limited tools so I'm doing all this with elbow grease. Will i need to get a DA sander to do this properly. All i have is an angle grinder that i also bought a sander conversion disc for, so that i could get to bare metal back when i did the body work (glass, filler, & glaze putty). Thanks in advance for any help with this. This is my first time doing this.

Thank you for the video. I have just had my van resprayed and it has a slight orange peel on certain panels, not too bad but I intend to remove the orange peel myself to a glass finish. Your video has been very helpful indeed.
