Talking Nexson in Action! Bumper Repair Video!

This video is for those of you who are wondering, can I fix my bumper with touch up paint or spray paint. The video shows you the correct version of refinishing.

Enjoy and ask questions!!

well, those are just skim coats, but plastic is PITA to get flat. The good thing about it is that it is all flexible, so it is like adding more plastic to the bumper instead of brittle filler. I have less then a .25 of filler on there. The reason why I need that filler is because the bumper got all misshapped from the hit
