How to Make a Quick Repair on the Bodywork of a Kia Vehicle

Model: Kia KIA Various
Part: Body

In this video, we will show you how to make a quick repair for a small dent on the bodywork of a Kia vehicle. First, isolate the area to be treated with masking tape. Sand the area with abrasive paper, starting with P180, then P240, and P400, gradually treating a larger area until reaching P600. Finish with P3000, expanding the area further. Isolate a sufficiently large area and apply primer lightly, then the base coat. Allow it to dry thoroughly. Next, choose the exact colour for your vehicle and sand with P800. Apply a first coat and let it dry, then a second coat, and finally apply the clear coat (two coats), blending well. Remove any excess with P3000, and then polish with abrasive paste.
