How to repair a bumper by yourself

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Rear bumper

In this video, we can see how to repair a rear bumper by ourselves: it is a valid system for all cars. First, we need to remove the damaged bumper and wash it well, then level the surface with a hairdryer (or if we have it, with a heat gun) in order to fit the damaged piece back into its hole. Cover it with masking tape, and weld it from the underside with a plastic welder, which can be found on youtools-store.com with the code 5902062021045 at a price of 22.83 euros + delivery costs, the amount of which we have not found. After that, the surface should be sanded with fine sandpaper, then carefully passed over following the contours of the repair. Sand again with fine sandpaper, clean the area well, and fill the groove with liquid plastic. Sand again, clean well, and smooth with putty, then sand again. Apply a base coat and then several light coats of paint. We can then put the bumper back in place.
