Transit connect sport accident damage panel repair DTE TV



Whatโ€™s going on guys, so Iโ€™ve been asked to repair the rear quarter panel on this Ford transit connect.

Iโ€™m not doing much bodywork at the moment due to not having my spray booth up and running but my good friend Nathan and bumper2bumper kindly lets me use his from time to time.

Itโ€™s got multiple areas of damage that need pulling out and panel bearing then filler work and primer to make it right.

Itโ€™s Ford moon dust silver and silvers can be hard to get right sometime so how did I do.. letโ€™s goโ€ฆ.

  2. Filler still has a bad rep because people tend to use it over rust where obviously… its going to bubble and pop through again. met silver is the devil's paint when it comes to matching … you did well there dude! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

  3. Thank you for the video. Lovely job you did there. Perfect colour match and finish. Silver is a nightmare to match so I take my hat off to you. The owner should be well happy, I certainly would be with that job ๐Ÿ‘.

  5. Yes, I'd be more than happy with that ๐Ÿ‘ I only wish a repair I had done around 7 years ago was as good as your repair. The paint on my repaired rear quarter which is also silver has started to go very "strange" It looked ok paint finish wise when it was done but looks bad now over the repaired area. It was a nasty bit of damage and I reckon it's full of filler rather than beaten out ( I've had a magnet on it ๐Ÿ˜) Would an old repair be possible to re done from scratch do you think ? I mean all filler removed and the panel properly beaten again ? It's great seeing your repair on the time lapse. The owner of the van should be well happy with that. I'd be over the moon.

  6. Nice work Sir. Your panel beating looked spot on to me. I agree, you could easily spend another few hours on it, but it was never going to be PDR, so a skim or two would always be the order of the day. Finished van looks good. Many vans wouldn't get repaired.
