Are you using thinners so the paint doesn’t start pulling?

With Mason's no longer available, which paint manufacturers would you recommend ? Many thanks in advance !

Brilliant! I’ve started to paint my classic car using a foam roller and laying off with a dry brush. Do you think results would be better laying off with a loaded brush?

Nice Indian

Great video. Gonna do my van . I'm no stranger to a paint brush but I'm actually a plumber lol, thanks for all the info , wish me luck 😂

What colour red is that please . Very nice work

It is like CMB Leyland Titan in HK.

I just finished a 1994 suburban using this technic. I used a foam roller to apply and a blush to get the bubbles out. I’d do just brushes next time. The issue I had was with runs in the paint. I didn’t remove enough. I used penetrol in the paint also

Outstanding, well done A professional at work I’m a paint chemist and paint manufacturer for 40 years When I took over the company we had a test door , stuck half open , 12 inches wide from top to bottom My teacher, Dougie Dewell , Capstain always on the go .

Lovely VR 😍

Love this video. Never heard of coach painting before and now i find a whole lot of vids on it tonight. Question: What do you use to clean your brushes with and keep them soft and like new for next time?

I really like this approach. The entire process isn’t the fastest way to paint but the craftsmanship has to be incredibly rewarding. I’ll become a student of this approach.

I remember them in Brighton. But they had lids on in those days ! (i.e. they were permanent closed top) I wonder if they still have their more powerful Gardner 6LX Engines and special high ratio 4 speed gearboxes, which required you to always start in first gear, (unlike the standard low ratio gearboxes).

Would be great to see the final result after drying.

Can you get mid grey in coach paint ?

Pretty impressive work 👏

Perfect

Great job! I want to paint my Triumph with brush and coach enamel paint.

What paint that you use? :)

I've never seen painting a vehicle like this. The finish is fantastic. Could this be done on a commercial vehicle, a van?

What brush are you using? What do you add to the paint and how much additives do you use. What is yhe dry time?

How to you hide the brush strokes in the paint ??

How do you warm your paint before applying?

What paint brand do you use now that Masons paint is now non existent?

In the US many amateurs paint old vehicles with a brush in their garage to save on cost, but with rust oleum which soon fades. We don’t have any paint that lasts and finishes like this.

Do you put a finish over the paint ?

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ll be watching more before I take a brush to my T25

Inspired to paint my camper van . Thank you

Such a gorgeous symphony from those rumbling monsters

When coach painting, does the surface prep need to be more coarse than prepping for spray? Im very interested abaut this method, i have a bug that i was going to spray soon but this coach paint method would be something new to me. Also about the section worktime, lets say you painted half a car and see a run where you started, can it still be worked out or should you just let it be and maybe fix it when its dry.

Omg . Restoring a Rover 75 estate brg, had some major setbacks to say the least, this has me thinking I may sill be able to afford electricity upon the restoration completion 😂

Keep up the good work I can watch Ashley paint all day

Sublime. Unmistakable. Gardner

I've got a converted campervan if you would like to give me a quote for coach painting it for me. I could drop it off at your place and pick up when you are finished. Regards Gary sefton

Aaah! Masons "P Type". What has happened to that ?? I used it for 25yrs painting narrowboats & i do miss it. Using this modern stuff just ain't the same! Nice vid...

Now that is entertainment in a paint can! Thanks Ash and Kirst!

I am a competent painter but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to keep and use a brush beyond 1 job. I usually have to buy a new brush for each job which is expensive.

I'd love to see more videos but more than that I'd love to see real high definition close ups on the finish both after application and when fully cured.

As other commentators have also asked below, how do you achieve such an exceptionally long open time? The usual raw linseed oil based additives available don't seem to provide this. It is also intriguing that you are using a floppy synthetic bristle brush instead of a worn down natural bristle brush for control. It appears you can do this because the paint in your kettle is thin, but in that case does it hide p400 sanding scratches when it dries and shrinks?

Came across this by total chance.... Good to see you guys... I like "I won't tell Dad" at 21.10

Great brushwork!

i worked for bt for 38 years and in the1970s we used masons paint yellow black silver best brushing paint i have ever used

I would love to drive that.

when is the training video coming?

Enjoyed the video and interview very informative on the Regal's. I do love all AEC'S and miss them here in Christchurch New Zealand.

Question...has an additive been put in that coach enamel to keep it open longer? I can't get over how long it's staying open. I use Craftmaster (used to use Tekaloid) and I would never be able to go back to applied paint as you've done here. Lovely job by the way. Hope you'll reply.

I feel like a regal just pulled up and took us on a journey

Brilliant! The Blackman Boys' Bus Bonanza!

🙏🙏🙏

I note the head light being used, just been painting my boat, outside unfortunately, and due to the position of the sun sometimes it was difficult to see any missed areas, never thought of that, tried a torch but had to keep putting the brush down to pick up the torch.
