Hey, it’s Tony from LearnAutoBodyAndPaint. Today’s topic is all about 10 Must Know Tips When Painting a Car From Scratch! J

  1. Degrease the engine down, you can use a brush and a degreaser.
  2. Inspect the car thoroughly.
  3. To see if a car was in an accident, check the body lines. If there’s a gap, it might have been repaired.
  4. One way to check if the car is beat up, is to check the condition of the rocker panel.
  5. To check if the car you are buying is involved in a rear end collision, check the trunk. Lift the carpet and check the frame support for wrinkling and damages.
  6. You can also go under your car and check on the bumper support.
  7. To check if your car has a steel or aluminum body, you can use a magnet. If it sticks, it’s steel. If it doesn’t, therefore it’s aluminum.
  8. After you take your lights out, place the nuts and bolts back on so you won’t lose them. Do it in every part of the car that you remove.
  9. If the light looks faded, you can buff it out to make it look good.
  10. The more body parts you take off, the less over spray you’re going to have, therefore getting a nicer paint job.

  1. I thought it was interesting when you mentioned that you can check if a car is a steel or aluminum frame by checking it with a magnet. My car recently got sideswiped and it needs to be repainted again. I will have to take it into an autobody shop to have this done.
