Mazda cx 7 bumper cover Videos

Nice , I'll be watching

That's a lot of work, but I think it sounds like a great plan and a way to get some good experience.

i would do same but plastic weld mesh screen, then felexiable filler prime seal mid coat basecoat only the area needed/blend in then clearcoat whole bumper what type plastic it ? if melts with soldering gun you wont need nothing but mesh screen and shave off some plastic from inside bumper for welding rod or if have another bumper around with same type plastic cut in strips use that thats if melts otherwise do as other mentioned unless you have airless plastic welder kit with all diffrent rods so weld all most plastics ? heres what we use model 6 //www.urethanesupply.com/Airless-Welders-1/

Are you taking the bumper cover off the car? Quite the process when you write it all out isn't it :-)

I CAN ONLY WATCH AND LEARN SORRY

I would finish the filler work and surrounding paint in 320 grit to remove any deep scratches. I have not used any waterborne but I would think that 320 would be enough to prime over. As for sealing (spot) of bodywork after priming, I would probably skip that so that you can keep the repair small. Blend the paint out (hide the bodywork and spray out from it a little lighter as you go). I don't usually try to "blend" or spot repair tri-coats because I don't have much experience with them. I think Matt has you covered on this one. Just clear the entire thing and all will be marvelous :)
