I sprayed my del sol tri stage ivory with a pearl midcoat with this gun and it handled it just fine. 26 gallon home depot air compressor. Gotta get out there and get it like UPK says guys. Worst that can happen is having to sand down and try again
That’s it Hiram! and I’m glad to here you knocked out your project 💯
@@UndergroundPaintKing thanks for all the motivation! You're doing good things here bro!
@@acevedohiram you’re welcome and that’s what the channel is all about Fam, Helping my People 💪🏾
Just sucks considering how expensive paint has gotten. But totally agree!
@@jayinmi3706 yeah the prices on materials is getting outrageous 🤦🏽♂️
LVLP all day. That’s a working man’s gun right there. Killer work homie that’s what’s up.
Yes sir it is Brandon, I appreciate you checking out the video 💯💪🏾
I’ve really enjoyed your videos. It’s helped me a lot. I haven’t touched a spray gun in about 25 years and I had a really difficult job to do on my RV. The front top cap needed a repaint. I had to prep, then use sealer, base coat and clear all on scaffolding. I HAD to keep overspray down or the neighbors wouldn’t appreciate multi colored homes. I went with the SprayIt 33000. I need not fear, it worked like a champ. I had to be very careful to keep a wet edge, but I did. I had to move the scaffolding fast, and yes, this was all in the driveway. It can be done. Thanks for all the great information. I’d attach a picture but I don’t see how.
I’m glad you had a great experience with the SprayIT and glad the videos were helpful Gary! If you would like you can send pics to my email at ugpk810@gmail.com
In school after sanding the plastic they would make us use the bulldog abrasive prep paste which I hated, but now I see here that it isn’t necessary
Yeah I don’t use the paste but I know of others that use it but you definitely can get away with not using it!
Damn ! UPK that bumper! ....Bling ! Bling ! 🔥👌🏽
Thanks Malcolm I appreciate that 💯🤛🏾
Thanks again for dropping knowledge UPK!
You’re welcome James and I appreciate you for supporting the channel!
UPK, always quality content and it comes through the camera, that awesome passion!!!!!!
I really appreciate that Mynsxt6!
That looks awesome. Just bought the vevor, spectrum system, and the 610. Gotta get busy on a few projects.
Thanks for the Videos.
You’re welcome and enjoy those spray guns 💪🏾
It is another beautiful paint job. I am enjoying watching you paint. It makes me feel more confident that I can attemp a repair on my car.
Thanks James I appreciate you watching the videos and I’m confident that you can do the repairs on your car💪🏾
Am using the Spray-it again today to spray 1k sealer. I continue to be impressed with how well it does at this price. Keeps the fog down a bit. Not my go-to clear gun, but base, thinner sealers, All Day Long. All Day. I tear it down and treat it like I didn't pay...45 bucks or so when I got it off Ali-Express.
People, skip that purple gun, that green gun, and spend just a bit more to get the R500. For all basic paint jobs and 4 to 1 clears. If you are a DIY guy ...this and a 1.7 kit can be All you need to do it all.
That’s exactly it, if you get the 1.3 and the 1.7 you really don’t need anything else!
Looks like you got some nice clarity on that bumper cover. Reflection looked sharp👍 The ole Spray-it is getting a workout on your channel.
Thanks Bear I appreciate you and yeah it’s definitely getting a work out and I’m surprised with it’s consistency after using it so much!
Great video. You made that look easy. It looks fantastic man 👍
Thanks P Street I appreciate you checking it out 💯
Good job looks good always looking forward to watching yours and pharraways videos 👍🏼
Thanks Willz71 and I appreciate you watching the videos 🤛🏾
Caught the left hand switch up. Nice
Thanks Shantor100 I appreciate you checking out the video and I like to switch up and give the other are a break lol
Keep the videos coming UPK excellent content 👍🏿💯
Thanks Jonathan I’ll definitely keep the content coming!
Nice colors, the flake went on nice.
Thanks Smarternu, the flake laid out nice on this one, appreciate you checking it out!
came out pretty good nice gloss to it....
Thanks John I appreciate you checking it out!
nice job really like the color
Thanks Ed, I appreciate you checking it out 🙏🏽💯
Good job my man... you are turning into the hardest working man on RUclips lol
Appreciate you Grant lol I’m just trying to keep busy!
Thanks man you're the best
Thanks for that, I appreciate you and you’re welcome!
Hey UPK, great job man that looks great! inspired again to bust out my R500 on some dark metallic's
Thanks Aido I appreciate you checking out the video and glad it could be a inspiration to get some painting done!
Very helpful love ur videos
Glad the videos are helpful!
You knocked it out bro nice job 👍🏿
Appreciate that Willie and appreciate you checking it out 💯
Good video UPK - looks really nice - have a great week 😊
Thanks Jerry I appreciate you, have a great week my friend!
Good job, Boss. Take those few extra steps to make sure it's right. If a customer has to come back because of failed paint, #1. You're losing money doing it over. and #2. You'll never see him or any of his friends for future jobs. As always, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Those few extra steps really make the difference Joe💯 appreciate you checking out the video!
Just bought 2 of them. 1 3 and 2.0. Going to use a 29 gallon oiled harborfreight and swap the pump for a 3 hp pump. Bumps the cfms up to like 9-11 cfms I think. I'm a collision tech, experience enough painting. Bought a 80 gallon 30 cfm compressor for my home shop but I think I'm going to sell it. Way more compressor than I need. Plan on using electric sanders and only using the 29 gallon to paint and blow things off. 5 years ago you would have gotten laughed out the shop for using electric tools. Now every every sir tool just about has an electric brother
The autobody industry is changing and you really don’t have to have all the big equipment anymore so downsizing is a good move if it works for you 💯💪🏾
@@UndergroundPaintKing do you remember the specific gun adapter for the spectrum cups by chance?
@@Super_Sport_Marc I believe the info is in this video
Helpful big dawg 💪 💯
Appreciate you checking it out Joseph 💯
Looking great. Good job!
Thanks King0cans I appreciate you checking out the video!
@@UndergroundPaintKing Hey man I check them all out King.
@@king0cans I greatly appreciate you!
Interested talk about wax grease I am started to notice alot of people starting to use the alcohol ico now I know why I think I might start to use it thank you for the video upking and a nice job with the bumper
You’re welcome Husky I’m glad the video helps!
Thanks a lot king
You’re welcome Raul!
I use rubbing alcohol to remove pine tree sap off my car! You definitely have to wax the area that had the sap on it. Thank you for the tip. That'll save me a little money! 🤙👍🇺🇲
Glad the tip helps!
Great video upk on preparing plastic bumpers for painting. I like how you explain the steps with the bulldog and the sealer. Nice job
Thanks James I appreciate you my friend!
Lovely job, i’ve binned my big compressor and now using a 6 gallon silent Hyundai with a low pressure gun, the results are great. I’m doing damage on new cars and getting away with it so far. Wish i had your set up, i’ve got a dusty old spray tent.😁
Keep putting in the work and I know you’ll have your own shop in no time, the tent is just the beginning 💪🏾
It’s only a hobby, love the channel
@@cynt1111 thanks, I appreciate you checking it out!
black metallic paint on my hood is cracking. gonna prep and respray it soon as I get the courage. I'd love to see a video of prepping and spraying a hood still on the car.
I don’t have any hood jobs lined up but I’ll see what I can come up with MrManushe!
I have a 71 Monte like the one in the background. Hope theres a video coming on that one soon. Im prepping mine now for paint. Im painting mine black and silver. Im new to channel maybe there already is a video lol
I’ll be having videos on it in the near future
I’ve found with my spray it guns they like somewhere between 25-45 psi depending on if it’s lacquer, enamel or urethane. And I like the smaller touch up gun much better than the r500 style, I think it sprays better..
I’ve never sprayed with the touch up spray gun but I’ve heard it was nice!
@@UndergroundPaintKing it’s got a .08 tip and sprays wonderfully. You should definitely try it.
@@IowaBudgetRCBashers I’ll look into it, thanks!
I was reading on southern polyurethanes forum that wax and grease removers can actually eat the microfiber, leaving a film.
That might be what you experienced. They recommend using a blue paper shop towel to wipe down the cleaner.
Love your channel! Getting ready to paint my ‘72 F100 and you are building my confidence
Thanks for that info Justin and I’m glad the channel can help in any way 💯 appreciate you checking out the video!
Right On!
Thanks Patrick I appreciate you checking out the video!
You. Know I was always wondering how guys were spraying cars with only a quart or so of material and it's because they're using A lvlp LMAO 🤣 love your videos man
😂 thanks DaSesh I appreciate you watching the videos!
I just sprayed my first base/clear on my inner fenders of my Wagoneer using the R500. Worked out fine, but I think I need to reduce my fluid volume. Sprayed at 28psi for base and 30 for clear, but ended up with a lot of material overspraying. Roughly how many turns do you have on your fluid volume? Great stuff. You and Sprayway always come through!
I actually have my fluid wide open but you definitely want to make the adjustment that are best for you and the material you’re spraying 💯
Ive never seen a video that includes how much sealer/primer/base/clear is being used on a project. Can you include this in future videos? Love the uploads, just subscribed. Keep it up man.
I’ll try including how much material is used in future videos James, I appreciate you subscribing to the channel!
@@UndergroundPaintKing 100%
Great
Appreciate you checking out the video!
A little White vinegar mixed with that alcohol should do the trick just fine.
I’ll have to try that Paa, it’s my first time hearing anyone using white vinegar with rubbing alcohol 🤔 appreciate that info
Hey there 👋UPK ! .....just another fantastic video from the people's Champ👌🏽🙂. Just a quick question for ya bruv,if you don't mind . If I was spraying metallic whatever colour, would I REALLY need to, like shake my spray can now and then while spraying to keep my metallic particles afloat ?
Thanks Malcolm I appreciate you and it’s not always necessary but it is good to shake it with real heavy flakes
Love the videos, having a hard time finding a lvlp gun have any good recommendations? Your work always looks real slick!!! Looks like a combo at the local lowes.
I have been using the SprayIT and Summit Racing also sells one. You can also check with Eastwood which sells one also. Hope that helps John
I dont mean to but in but i got my sprayit on Amazon
King, I think you need to come to Florida and paint my truck man
That wouldn’t be a bad idea Stanley I would like to come to Florida and paint your truck 💪🏾
@@UndergroundPaintKing if only it were that easy. I've painted cars before with good results, but I cut and buffed my azz off. I don't really want to do that again.
@@skipstjohn 😂 yeah a lot of people don’t like to cut and buff!
Looks great bro!!🔥🔥 What psi do you spray your clear?
Thanks IIya I appreciate you and I think I put the psi in the video when I started spraying clear
Love your videos! Just got a 26 gallon compressor and the sprayit, getting ready to paint my s2000.
I have a new front bumper, is it best for me to seal it before paint?
Thanks Nathaniel I appreciate you and in my opinion it is best to seal before paint
Bro where are you located? I just found your RUclips and I really appreciate the opportunity to learn from you! Thanks for telling it as you see it…!!!
I’m in Michigan bro, I’m glad the channel could help in any way 💪🏾
That came out sharp!
As far as the soapy water, what did you use for soap: car wash, dish soap, all tempa cheer, or head n shoulder???
😷
Thanks Joseph I appreciate that and I just used regular dish soap
Nice job .is Clearwater required paint reducer too ,just like you add paint reducer to the base color?
Clear water? Are you asking about waterborne paints?
Dude, you make me want to paint. Can you include how much paint you use to include sealer/primer and clear? I've never painted before. Have a cheap gun. Been waiting to paint my 03 silverado.
Are you asking for how much paint I used on this bumper cover or are you asking how much paint you would need to paint your truck?
@@UndergroundPaintKing how much for each job you do at the time brother. Thankyou!
How well does the LVLP gun lay down single stage acrylic enamel paint?
What’s the best way to go, single stage or base coat/clear coat?
Your videos or great and you example the process very well.
To be honest I haven’t sprayed single stage with it, only base coat clear coat so I’ll have to try spraying some single stage with it…I appreciate you checking out the videos and I hope they help
Do you have to use a flex agent on bumper covers?
@@bryandouglass9997 I personally don’t use a flex agent but you can
Bro, any reason why base @ 28psi. I usually shoot at 22 or 24 psi. And the leaking gun happened to me with 2k sealer. The vent hole on the lid was partially blocked and the needle packing gland nut was loose. That is what you get from a cheap Chinese spray gun for primer. But fixed it!!! keep up the good work.
I like to spray at higher psi to atomize the materials how I like but if spraying at 22 to 24 works for you then you should definitely stay at those settings…appreciate you checking out the video Niam!
Hi there UPK.. I'm glad I've subscribe to your channel very helpful videos.. I'm trying to repaint my 90 corolla... For the bumpers should I still use adhesion promoter and sealer? Its 6k6 code grayish green metallic.. Thanks in advance and thank you for your time 🍻
I appreciate you subscribing to the channel Eric, are your bumpers the original bumpers or aftermarket?
@@UndergroundPaintKing it's original but the paint already faded.
@@ericpecana5529 you don’t have to use the adhesion promoter or the sealer depending on how bad the original paint is but I probably would at least seal the bumpers and give them fresh paint
Appreciated the advice UPK. newbie in this project using pray guns that's always watching your video very helpful and knowledgeable.. Cheers you people CHAMP 🍻
@@ericpecana5529 you’re welcome and I’m glad the videos help!
Was the Devilbiss dripping from the air cap or from the nut on the back side of the front of the gun (Does that make sense?) I used a HF gun and didn't realize that nut wasn't tight enough, so the first time I used it, it was dripping from back there. Glad I was just shooting primer/surfacer. lol
It was dripping from the cap and I think the needle was getting stuck somehow
Thank you UPK! Will the 1.3 tip spray blue metallic no problem on larger panels like 77 Monte rear quarters? Thanks and keep it up!
You’re welcome and yes it’ll definitely spray blue metallic!
@@UndergroundPaintKingSpeed lighting response! Thank you.
@@mosesarroyo7483 you’re welcome, I do my best to respond and help out as best as I can!
Got a question for you. I have a 2000 Silverado extended cab . That's two toned pewter all the way down to door about 3 inch from the molding. Right below the body line ( dark gray). I want to paint that gray part of the truck pewter . What would be your process of prepping this part of the truck.
Send me pics Tony to ugpk810@gmail.com and I’ll be able to help you better or you can find me on IG and send me pics there
Nice u always paint 28 psi with the brand gun devill
I don’t always spray at 28 psi 88Chevy Rider, it usually depends on what I’m spraying
Ok
Hello I wood like to know what tip should I use when sparying blue metallic sigle stage am using spray it r500 can u help me out on that question
You should be able to use the 1.3 tip Francisco
Newbie to painting here: How do you determine what PSI/tip combo you use? You always make sure to let us know what it is (1.3 lvlp at 28 psi). How do I know what psi to go with? is it based on the tip and what im spraying (primer/sealer, base, clear)?
A few things matter when it comes to the decision of what tip size to use and what pressure to spray at. To make it a little easier for you is if you have thinner material to spray it best to spray with a smaller tip and thicker material with a bigger tip, then you determine what your air pressure by the appearance you want to achieve so you adjust the pressure and fan to get the spray gun to atomize the material to your liking, I hope that helps!
Happy new year so I high build my car with 2K hi build primer I sanded everything down to 600 grit paper do I need to seal this before painting and if so I’m not too sure how to seal it Can I use the 2K high bill primer as a sealer and what do I need to get what type of reducer to seal it thanks bro
Happy New Year Walt, it really depends on your primer and if you have any break through areas, I don’t know what primer you used and if it can be used as a sealer so if it was me I would get a sealer whether it be a 1k sealer or a 2k sealer and seal it that way you know the product is doing exactly what it was made to do and I would check with the manufacturer or supplier to check and see if the primer can be used as a sealer. You also can disregard all that and paint over your primer and just make sure that you have enough material to cover the vehicle when painting, so you definitely have options on what route to take
@@UndergroundPaintKing thanks bro and what I’m gonna say is I’m using a speedo coat 2K Hi build primer this is my first time painting and I don’t wanna make a mistake I am a diesel mechanic I can do everything else by paint so I appreciate you getting back to me keep up the good videos main level piece
Just wondering UPK , which one of the LVLP guns do you think is the best one so far ?
They are the same exact spray gun but I think the SprayIT is built with a little more quality
Hi there UPK ...um just wondering what type of regulator you prefer using on your LVLP spray gun?
I honestly don’t have a preference on my regulator as long as it reads pretty accurate and will last a good while, so the ones from Harbor Freight work good or you can get a name brand one…I’ve had both fail me at some point so I don’t see any regulator really better than another
Great videos man !! I'm about to paint the roof of my SUV with tractor supply oil base paint we'll see how it goes LoL low budget I can't afford to buy good stuff,any recommendations?
Thanks I appreciate you checking out the videos Claudio, if you don’t want to go that route and have a local supplier you can get them to mix you up some single stage paint in your paint code for your vehicle and it shouldn’t cost you a ton of money
@@UndergroundPaintKing you right I might go ahead and order some single stage paint thanks and I'll let you know.
@@claudiostallone3584 sounds good, keep me posted!
@@UndergroundPaintKing I will thanks 🙏👍
@@claudiostallone3584 you’re welcome!
Can u share with me the black metallic pine you used and the brand
The paint code is ABP and it’s from a 2018 Kia Forte and the paint I used was by Matrix Bryan…I appreciate you checking out the video!
Can I ask please,
320 grit or 220 grit before applying 2k high build primer?
You would be fine with either grit before 2k primer Michael
😍😍😍😍😍
Appreciate you checking out the video VSS!
Do you use alcohol only with plastic or metal also? Thank you!
I normally just use it on plastics
I added another vid of my air system
I’ll have to check it out
@@UndergroundPaintKing ok its set public
Were you order your paint reducer an clear online thanks
I get my paint materials locally Rodney
Hello Mr King am a big fan of yours am thinking about painting my Suzuki grand Vitara with code 6w9 for Toyota CHR I think it's a pearl base paint, my question to you, is it ok to remove the bumper / panels when using that particular paint? Thank you
It is ok to remove the bumper and panels Raul when doing a pearl but keeping it together when doing a tri coat makes it a little easier
@@UndergroundPaintKing what is a trip coat?
@@raulmatthews8383 a tri coat is referring to the different layers of paint materials, you will have a base coat, a mid coat, and then a clear coat
Am fresh in this business so please for give me. But I never heard about mid coat before. I know of single stage, base coat and clear never heard about mid, if you don't mind can you explain what is a mid coat?
@@raulmatthews8383 mid coat can be spraying a pearl or a candy or big flakes which can all be sprayed like a base
I swore wax and grease remover was screwing me the last time I painted years ago.
Yeah I learned that the hard way and learned to use rubbing alcohol…appreciate you checking out the video!
@@UndergroundPaintKing absolutely and thanks for making them! Been years since I painted and it’s helping re learn what I’ve forgotten.
@@michiganpowerwashingpros9093 glad I could help!
I did too it has other chemicals in it I use rubbing alcohol or denatured alcohol I get from free at work
Can I ask a question off grid. High build primer first or sealer first.
High build primer first to finish up your bodywork and then sealer before you paint your base
Thanks for your reply. I value your knowledge and watch all your videos.
@@michaelcarr7858 thanks for watching the videos and I hope they help!
Hello 👑, how about pearl and crystal? Do you think this gun can handle it?
I’m pretty sure it’ll handle pearls and Flakes depending on the size of the flakes and tips you’re using Nazraku!
@@UndergroundPaintKing i've countlessly watch this video n right now i am so excited waiting for my R500 and my tiny 3hp 50 litre compressor to arrive...thanks king 👑 for the inspiration you delivered..

What are your gun settings when spraying base? Are you fan wide open and fluid wide open?
And is it the same when your spraying clear?
I start at full fan full fluid and adjust if necessary and I keep it the same for base and clear

Is the r500 better than the black widow from hf
I honestly don’t know if I can compare the two since I use one with a small compressor setup and the other with a big compressor setup
@@UndergroundPaintKing I've got a 60 gallon single stage. Honest recomadation? I don't won't to spend over $250 for a once a year hobby.
@@cecilb3216 I would say for you to go with the R500, if you don’t plan on doing much with the spray gun it’s no sense in spending a lot of money in my opinion
how many coats did you use of base ?
I always do 2-3 coats of base
@@UndergroundPaintKing thanks, i will be painting my truck soon (first time painter) and i bought a metalic base coat, kinda nervous but hope all goes well
@@Jorge_Reckless you will do great 💪🏾
How come everyone says you need at least a 60-80 gallon tank to paint a car
Lol you will have to ask those that tell you that because I have painted multiple cars with a small compressor on this channel and that in itself proves the big compressor setup false Miggy Rays!
Look like glass to me
