Man, I hope you understand how entertaining, and informative this video is. It's truly amazing to see how a paint job as complex as yours is accomplished. I hope you are getting paid EXTREMELY well for this type of work. Brilliant job !
Wow Scott, thank you so much! This is actually my first full car paint job on my personal car. Kind of a practise piece as well as a rolling billboard. I hope Ill get "EXTREMELY well paid" one day! 😄🤙🏼 Thanks for watching and for that amazing compliment!
While the paint scheme itself wouldn't be to my taste, the amount of work, hours, forward thinking, planning, intricacy, and sheer brain power....sweet mama Mary it's fuxkin incredible!!! Amazing job man!!! Truly amazing!
Yep you got my attention. I usually seal mine of with a couple of coats of clear, just to hold the dust of., and mess ups. There's enough on that to let me scuff it of before I lightly sand for final coating. I've been caught out in the past. with everything from over enthusiastic customers, to air brush back fires. And the cat from next door. Or that bit you didn't notice wasn't quite right, then a month later you spot that you taped it back wards....
@@SlickWorks well worth it, I'm in a raffle for a lowrider in BC. If I win I'm driving it from Victoria to Toronto area. Gunna film the journey for youtube
We’re among friends here, no need to lie…I seriously think….wait, I know, I would not/cannot have the patience that you displayed doing fingerprint….duuuuuude, that is probably the most phenomenal paint job/tape work I have ever seen. Amazing! Great job man….
Looks great. You are inspiring me. In doing a much different paint job on my car. It’s celestial, stars and nebulae. If I ever get to own a big car, I’m definitely doing this style.
@@hollybouchardsmith4941 Glad Ive inspired you! Thats what its all about for me 🙂 as far as the big car comment, Gbodies are smaller than you think! 😄 like smaller than the latest toyota corolla lol
Amazing and impressive work! I also like the way you do the video with that little clips from live outside the workshop - it reflects the ratio of that strange "work-live-balance" I guess ;)) Best words for me: "too tired to appreciate it now!" I know this feeling when worn out after hours of detailled work there is no more energy left to feel happy. Thanks for the insopiration that your work and video provide!
I recently retired after 40 years of such work all because people kept wanting cheaper and cheaper work, they had no idea how many hours it takes you for such works. Society wants everything cheaper and cheaper, but they want to earn more and more.. People in todays world forget that quality costs.
Great video my friend. I've recently retired after 40 years of painting, I actually lost the joy of it due to customers... same old thing of can you do it cheaper an cheaper not knowing how many hours you put into detail work.. I wish you all the best for your future 🙏
Man with how much actual painting you did I’d almost use a good mini gun, rock a 9oz (I think it is) DeKup and turn my fan pattern way down and my fluid about half way..
Hi fantastic... I keep struggling with tight corners. Can you please advise for best tape brand for thin tight curvy corners like in your video at 5:33. It seems also complicated for even you in some occasion?
Oh yes, you always get tape roll back if you leave it for a couple days. Actually the tape i used was all cheap amazon chinese tape lol. Garbage compared to the fbs tape Im using these days. Fbs has softness ratings. red being the softest, can take some real tight turns! fbs is definitely the way to go
Great thanks, I'll go the FBS way. I work very small and found the "FBS PT43 Performance Tape 0,76 mm x 25 m". Is that a true FBS tape, or some fake copy? Do you know ths tape?
When doing multiple patterns that won't be cleared for a while like what you just did, is there something you put over the patterns to keep topcoat window open or does candy have a long open window?
Itll get a good wash and scrub with grey scotchbrite before going to clear. This will scuff the surface and get rid of any nasty adhesion tape transfer.
it was a honda civic starter motor! Thank man, glad you appreciate my stuff. Get out there and go wild on your car man! Its all about inspiring people. have fun and happy cruising
Nice patterns! You do you man.There is a million variations of fish scale patterns.I have hand cut stencil vinyl just to do something different. Where did you get the pre mixed candy?
I use HOK concentrates and intercoat now, I just bought every HOK candy in a pre-mix to try out the whole catalogue before buying the candies I think I'll use most. Ill look up where I got them from..... Coast Airbrush 👌🏻😎
what did you do wrong, and what would you do differently to keep the yellow candy from peeling up with the mask like it did? That happens to me often but I don't know what Im doing wrong to fix it.
The fix is this: when you think its cured enough to pull the tape off, wait another 4 hours before pulling the tape off. The issue was getting too excited to see the end result and pulling tape too soon. Waiting has solved every issue
I’d say your best bet on doing a solid pink would be using a red concentrate, but that’s prolly why the pink is milky because a super translucent red candy still isn’t pink.
Wow you are talented. I'm building a lowrider in memory of my brother Rich Piana the bodybuilder on my channel. I'm going to be ready for paint after the hydraulics. I'm guessing you are somewhere around North Dakota? I lived there for 10 months and developed a slight accent like you have. Just a guess.
Thank you! Thats awesome that youre building a memorial lowrider for your brother man. Sorry for your loss. Believe it or not Im from BC Canada born n raised!
@@richpianaproject4862 Im about 8 hours closer to california than north dakota, but maybe its just a north accent i guess 😄 Thanks for the sub man! big things ahead!
If this is your first low rider paint job I must say it is SUPER NICE. I’m working on one how so I know what it takes to do this. A lot of patience. You have done a super job. BIG BUCKS IN THIS if you can handle the strain . Keep that MASK ON BRO 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Pagan gold is my favorite color
initially, some premix house of kolor flake that I wasnt too impressed with. So I bit the bullet and ought HOK candies and transnebula (spelling?) intercoat. Thanks for watching
@@Twanchox Thanks man! before removing tape wait as long as your patience will allow to avoid peeling up the candy. I cleared the whole car (primer and all) once the patterns were fully done. There is another Monte Paintjob video I uploaded after this one 🙂
I read your post right after you shared it. I was playing with the idea and using the computer and plotter it was not difficult to add panels to my practice hood, in the paint booth. Next is to try ghosting a full hood design under clear with the tape layout on top. Had fun with it thanks.
@@SlickWorks My Father and I watch you together . my father is 78 He use to own is own Body Shop for 30 some years .

When I can afford to 😆
Patterns are great
Thanks Steve! Love your stuff too man
Low riders aren’t really my thing, liked and subscribed. You are talented, mind blowing work!
Thanks Victor!
Wow, that’s pretty cool work and excellent video! What sort of stencil material is that for the fish scales? Thanks
Thabk you very much! chdck out stikit stencils. great adheaive stencils!

Dude, Good work. I am really digging the fingerprint pattern. Really inspiring me to go wild on my hood.
Also eg civic sound clip?

@@VektorHaus Awesome! Glad you like my stuff 🙂
Was that your tractor?
Yo you super talented bro
Thank you brother 🙏🏻
Good lord man! How many coats of clear are you thinking you'll use?
probably like 6-8 coats so theres enough buildup to block it down and wet sand it back
looks nice , any gold or silver leaf ?
not yet!
I’d say your best bet on doing a solid pink would be using a red concentrate, but that’s prolly why the pink is milky because a super translucent red candy still isn’t pink.

@@richpianaproject4862 it.... mayyy have been 😏 hahaha cheers man have a good one
Sounds like a single cam honda motor start up I'd say 96 civic..lol
If this is your first low rider paint job I must say it is SUPER NICE. I’m working on one how so I know what it takes to do this. A lot of patience. You have done a super job.
BIG BUCKS IN THIS if you can handle the strain .
Keep that MASK ON BRO 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Pagan gold is my favorite color
Thanks Ron, yes this is my first lowrider pattern paintjob on a car! Ill be more aware about keeping my mask on man cheers hahaha
What brand of candy do you suggest for people who live in Canada ?
Im in Langley BC. I use All House Of Kolor Candy and intercoat 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Paint brand used?
initially, some premix house of kolor flake that I wasnt too impressed with. So I bit the bullet and ought HOK candies and transnebula (spelling?) intercoat. Thanks for watching
i hope your paying that little lady that was removing tape big bucks she is very good at it lol
My little helper 😊
Whats the aproxemet cost in labor and materials for a custom paint job like this even if its your own car gives an idea on cost .
Labor and materials if a customer would want this detailed patterns would probably be in the neighborhood of around 20-30k CAN
Is it a Honda. Joel from CA
Very bad ass bubba
Thanks bubba ed
Sounds like a 90s Honda to me
bingo bango
How you do not get lost in that ? You are going to need a lot of cards 👍
it was a lot to keep track of 😆
Not sure what your skill level is, but your work looks gangster af!
weird comment hahaha. Thanks? 🤣
@@SlickWorks LOL. I'm new to your channel. I didn't know if you had 20 years experience or 6 months. Either way the work looks great!
Fuckin sweet bro. How long do you usually wait to remove the fingerprint tape? And do youbadd clear after every pattern?
@@Twanchox Thanks man! before removing tape wait as long as your patience will allow to avoid peeling up the candy. I cleared the whole car (primer and all) once the patterns were fully done. There is another Monte Paintjob video I uploaded after this one 🙂

@@Twanchox No worries! Glad you like my stuff
@SlickWorks hell yea man I'm doin my first full pattern car. Shit takes alot of time. Trying to learn.
@Twanchox Power to ya man! Yes, extremely time consuming. Hope it goes well for you 😎
It be great if a fractal patern could be made for custom lowrider candy paint jobs see fractal drawings fractal paintings.
Im sure I could pull something off. Ill give that a shot in a future episode!
