A perfect colour match can still look wrong if the prep underneath is lazy 🛠️ That’s why the pros know colour is only half the job. The sanding, cleaning, scuffing, sealing, priming, and blend area all decide whether the final repair disappears... or still looks like a repair.

Save this for your next job, and send it to the mate who always blames the paint first 👇

Touch-up paint problems are not always about colour alone 🎨 Sometimes it is the edge, sometimes it is the gloss, and very often it is the prep. ACC can match the colour properly... but the final result still depends on whether the job was prepped properly before the paint went on.

Save this for your next touch-up, or comment what part of touch-ups frustrates you most.

A proper paint correction flow is not one bottle doing everything 🧴 If you want a cleaner automotive finish, you need to understand where compound ends, where polish starts, and where your finishing product comes in.

Comment PART 2 if you want us to break down which pads should be used with which stage.

A cleaner finish usually comes from a cleaner process ✨ If you are trying to get better correction and better gloss, here is a simple ACC flow to remember:

Cut: GLISSEN Nitro Single Stage Compound 1kg
Polish: GLISSEN Nitro Finishing Compound 1kg
Finish: GLISSEN Nitro Wax 1kg

Every paint supplier has seen it 😭
A blurry screenshot... weird lighting... dusty panel... and somehow we’re supposed to pull a perfect colour match out of it.

Tag the mate who would definitely do this 😂

Everyone blames the sandpaper first... but clogged paper is usually a sign that something earlier in the job is off. Wrong grit, too much filler, not clearing dust properly, or rushing stages can turn a simple prep job into a fight.

What grit gives you the most trouble on a job? Comment below.

A lot of frustration starts with buying products people don’t fully understand. Basecoat, clearcoat and 2K systems all do different jobs, and mixing up those roles can cost you time and money 🎨

Save this one, and tag the mate who keeps asking what 2K actually means 😅
