How Long Can Body Filler and Spray Paint Last?

[McElena]

If the body filler is applied too thickly, even with standard spray painting, the durability largely depends on the environmental temperature the vehicle is exposed to. The paint is particularly prone to peeling and flaking during extreme summer heat and winter cold, generally lasting up to six months at most. Detailed steps are as follows: 1. Remove the base coat. 2. Mix the body filler with automotive paint matching the car's color, ensuring no water is added. 3. Apply the filler through multiple rounds of sanding and smoothing until it achieves a flawless, level surface that matches the original paintwork, allowing sufficient time for complete drying. 4. Use high-quality spray paint, avoiding counterfeit products. 5. The baking process must meet technical standards, adhering to quality requirements to achieve a finish indistinguishable from the original car paint.
