I'm getting ready to paint a topper for my truck, I was looking for instructional videos and came across this channel a few days ago. I've learned loads from watching your videos. Thanks for the content, and greetings from Scotland, UK.
Brian, as always, it's the best educational video for painting silver metallic! God bless.
you and Mario's videos have been so helpful to me as I teach myself how to paint. Thank you!
Great tutorial.
Also good that you know how people work in their own garage instead of a bodyshop
For sure!
Brian is by far the best teacher on RUclips for training. He is a natural at teaching and has made it very easy for people like myself to understand. I love this channel!
I appreciate that!
He really is if I worked with him I would consider myself very lucky
finally, so the blending additive is what you call clear base :) still not sure how much gap you give between sealer and applying clear base. is it 5 - 10 mins
and Kevin Tetz from Eastwood
He said clear the whole panel, I see he has tape masking the whole panel
Espectacular resultado maestro!!! Gracias por compartir! Saludos
Oh.....and Brian recommended more overlap (like 75%) instead of 50% and that helped too.
You the Best
Honestly, I'm learning by watching your videos, and seeing that you talk about a transparent base, could you tell me what name and where to buy it, I would appreciate it.
Hey Brian, what gun would you recommend to get the flattest clear coat finish off the gun? I'm using a GTI Pro Lite T110 1.2 but looking for suggestions for a better gun possibly maybe a sata 5500? any recommendations would be good thanks.
Hey Brian I just picked up the WS400 and DVI B-plus. What would you recommend for Sealer in a productions environment. Budget and preferred. Thanks for all your videos it has helped me from DIY to collision shop painter.
and here I am upset my Walmart universal silver spray can "blended" paint job outside on a windy day in direct sunlight came out so bad and streaky 🤣
2 years ago I was painting a 1980 Chevy Blazer with the exact gun Brian is using here (sprayed at 15 psi and final coat at 12-13). I had blotches, stripes and sand piling in the dark silver metallic. It was terrible. I tried a 4th coat. Mistake.
I emailed Brian....he did not know me from Adam and gave me the EXACT advice he gives here and that slow or extra slow reducer is the money shot. It lets your paint fall into a wet bed rather than dry in the air and land dry. Brian is right on.
I was spraying in my garage in Michigan in March so I had the heat on 70 but had to open the doors while spraying so I thought a medium reducer would work....nope! The paint store literally thought I was nuts when i went in there asking for slow or extra slow reducer during a Michigan winter. Honestly, I thought Brian was nuts too....but I had no choice. I was desperate.
I had to allow 30 minutes between coats and even went overnight before going to clear coat since my shop is not a high heat paint booth. Brian is a class act and saved my butt!
Thank you again sir!
Thanks for the awesome feedback. Glad to hear your success.
I’ve taken the knowledge in your videos to paint my wife’s car and with all the mistakes I did make I was happy with how much I learned here before getting into the project! It’s not perfect but I made it work and I plan to paint the rest of the car in the spring as I got a paint with the code and it was not a perfect match either. I’m glad I learned what I did and it will benefit me on the next one! Thanks Brian
That is awesome!
Less is more for silver.
I supose ,inducing so many solvent coats , eventualy the underneath will not fully dry.
the 10 minutes pause will not fully dry it. this may cause shrinkage after some time ...
am I wrong?
many thanks and all the best
Nice Blend. Too bad the door trim makes it look like crap. This is the reason I HATE Flat black for door trims.
Any tips for spray a solid paint?
As in straight pain.
Like a Toyota 202 black
I've sprayed solvent paint for well over 40 years now. I'm currently spraying waterborne paint and let me tell you, it's a whole new ball game guys. While most of the waterborne paint seems to match late model colors, and effects better then their solvent counterparts, I'd still do my own stuff with solvent. I'm getting ready to retire at the end of March. So, I'll be giving Brians videos a good deal of my time. I'm not the first to say this, but this guy gives some of the best instruction without boring you with too many details. Keep up the good work.
Totally agree with you, brother!
Whats the name of the Accura model in this video?
Also called a one stage paint
I painted 4 stage red. No streaks but 1 or 2 panels not as dark 😪😶
Perfect video I needed today. This morning I couldn't get a KAD paint code to not mottle. I ended up lowering my air pressure real low, pulling my gun half trigger and going real nice and slow.
Hey brother, just bought a IWATA KIWAMI4-13BA4, comes with a 1.3 nozzle. I want to get your opinion of this gun, and would I need to change the tip for sealer or other liquids.. Thanks
What psi do you tend to like for base with sagola 4600 (aqua cap)
why you guys in america only paint the outer layers of the car? im kina shocked
I can't tell you how many silver cars i see driving down the road and it's blatantly obvious a door or panel was repainted, always looks lighter or darker or shimmers differently than factory paint. Very tough to match color tone and metallic luster but you got it down to a science, nice work 👍😊
Do you spray blending additive right away after sealer or you let your sealer flash before spraying blending additive
Thanks for the content. I picked up a collectable car that was poorly painted white. A very long time ago. After checking the oem code I determined new it was Ford 1A or 5100-A, Light Gray Iridescent. Is this another name for metallic silver color paint? I would like to return the color to the original factory color as there weren’t many of this model painted this color.
Another information packed video. I have a question. I bought a clear coat product called “binder”. Is that the same as your blender? If so do you spray it straight out of the can?
This man has attention for detail🫵🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Let's say I have some over spray (base) do I just do clear over it?
Since you were talking about getting a very slow reducer, I have a question. Is it possible to mix different speeds of reducer from the same product line? For example, if I had some fast reducer and I I bought some of this slow reducer, could I mix them together to make a medium?
Amazing how times and products have changed. 20 years ago we never would have sprayed with direct to the plastic masking, always had 18 inches of paper at the border to control static.
And I have to ask , why do you use the 3M yellow tape over the "premium" green ? I have used and sold both and and no problems with either
Great video
Got a question. I am in the process of repainting my bumper cover. I have all the clearcoat sanded off and got down to bare plastic in some places.Will it be ok to just prime or should I spray adhesion promoter just where I sanded through. I'm priming with SEM High build primer surfacer spray can and SEM urethane base. Thanks
Did you spray the clear base while the sealer was still wet?
Does this technique work for water and the psi 14-13 psi
I am from india .and i am your big fan and got much knowledgefrom your videos as i am also professional in painting.almost 20years in this field.thanks Brian.
Another great lesson Brian. Thank you
Do you add the extra slow reducer to the clear base? Thanks
Phillip Hall
How about showing how to correct/paint those black door pillars.
I have a tahoe that needs a little paint job with a spraycan,but here in Norway it is about 0 degrees celsius and sometimes up in the 5+ degrees area but also a lot often Im the 8 below zero degrees area…my question is this : How hot does it minimum have to be in deg celsius so that the paint job will be a succsess?( I am working outdoors…) the surface area to be painted is less than a square meter(
what is ur air pressure
I used to get laughed at back in the early 90s for using base-clear to get those perfectly smooth metallic blends. If was refreshing to see you do the same thing for that perfect job! 👍
What’s the wait time between sealer and blending additive???
Flag those hours! $$$
Hi Brian, thanks for another lesson. Great stuff. Wish i had the tools to do it. Question, would like to know if you can paint my car?
thanks for the tip brother deff gonna be trying it out, one question tho do u keep the low pressure for the rest of the parts or u bump it up ????
I know zero about painting but you have got to be one of the best instructors, on anything, that I’ve ever heard! I’m glad I stumbled onto your channel! Great job!
I lke
Yes I noticed if we spray too many coats and its pre drying in the air, then when it lands on the panel the angle of the metallic particles starts to layer on different angles which the magnifies the streaky problem. Sanding smooth again and doing two wet coats, then one light coat seems to rectify the problem. I did that with spray cans too and it works.
thank you for the helpful tips, I share your videos with friends
Great point!p
You are amazing teacher .Be blessed.
Another excellent tutorial. I recently painted Honda Heather Mist and had similar issues. A better gun was later bought, but this confirmed my other suspicion. That turning the pressure down, more distance, and that cross pattern could have save me. I'll remember it next time. Thanks again, Brian!
My first attempt to paint my silver metallic wheel arches, outdoor, on my driveway in UK, during winter, from a spray can, 80% humidity, 15 degrees outside, windy. - Fail bad colour match
My second attempt was to buy proper paint that matches and use a spray gun (DV1S). Almost same climateric conditions 12 degrees outside - Fail uneven blend and due to humidity it flaked.
My third attempt was to fix the flakes, 9 degrees - Fail to blend, flaked again
My fourth attempt was in my neighbours garage start from scratch - Used heat gun, thinner coats, 7 degrees outside. Failed to blend also too coarse grain. But I sanded and left it like that.
Covered with Lacquer 2K clear coat. Next morning the clearcoat was not clear at all, all "frosted/shadowed"
Used heat gun to restore transparency.
I gave up. DV1S spot repair, 1.7 Bars 1.2mm HVLP+ nozzle. If you don't have a dry, warm, clean, available for DAYS, place. Don't even bother trying to paint anything yourself. RIP.
Never failed so miserably in my life for a DIY job.
I'm in Florida. Wonder if you could paint my bright silver Mercedes. Need both bumpers, hood and roof. Roof I would paint black.
Can you go into what exact paints you use and how you source them? Especially for first timers. I have an HVLP spray gun. Thanks.
I didn’t see it in the description, but what I use on my sealer edges is U-Pol Fade Out aerosol. Just a couple of light dustings around the edges of the sealer, followed by a good tack rag after flash time, then some blending clear over the panel(s) leaves a great substrate for a smooth blend.
Great video!!!!!!. How does the spray gun you're using for your bass coat work for spraying candy
I have a different issue with silvers.
Even when I do match pretty good under certain angle the part of the panel that I painted is not as sparkly as the factory.
Any suggestion on nozzle size, pressure, or whatever I need to do to make my silver more metallic.
Greatly appreciated 👍
Thank you for another very informative video
Thank you, Thank you, for those very important tips of when to stop before going forward. Another great lesson. Thanks again Brian. Trucker Ray ✝️
Awesome Brian, thank you so much.
I did this and it is very good finish.
I like your way to explain the way to blend the colours, but I'm new to this job and can't understand how you put first clear coat and then the base coat? How the base coat stick over the clear? And do we need to put that sealant if we are already sand smooth? I'm planning to paint my rear door with spray cans and thinking about matching the colours!
Idk what company paint ur using but 11 lbs to spray silver is unheard of.
Thank you! Now I know WHY my silver metallic was looking like s@$t!!
Hey man I was watching your video and I love that work that you do that I wouldn't mind to take my car to you it's a 2022 just the side effects of a little scrape and needed to be paid
I just nailed a paint job today took approximately 1:20:00 to do i am absolutely estatic about how they turned out
Do auto spray booths need to deal with environmental folks that may take issue with slower solvents/reducers that increase the shops VOCs?
Will any of those tricks work if spraying silver metalic from a can? Do it yourselfer here and have a small rust patch to fix
You your the best.
Amazing tips! Thanks for sharing!
What is the equivalent to extra slow reducer to use with bc in europe? We mostly have only acrylic paint in stores and whenever i ask for a slow reducer they don't have a clue what that is
And no, for the dv1 the absolute open fan is not ideal. For sata guns yes. Not for this gun.
That was the perfect explanation ever that I've seen on Yt.
To be honest, while he was reversing, I was waiting for the thud.
That looks great! I could tell as soon as you shot the first coat of base it was nam dear spot on for the match. Nothing less than the best from your channel.
Did u wait 15 min before the clear base. I use dbc and usually wait like for normal base
Great stuff Brain. Wealth of knowledge and fantastic method of showing us the process to get proper results. Have a R32 Paint Code LB5R that these steps will really help.
Have you ever gotten fisheyes, and I was told there was an additive you could put in the paint to reduce them
Wow. Great job. Great tips. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I use lesonal solvent as well and typically never need to blend the sealer . If I put it on wet and smooth it isn’t necessary for me at least
I teach a high school auto collision program and use your videos regularly. You explain things so well. My question is triggering the spray gun. I have watched a number of your videos and you do not release your trigger while painting. I was taught, and have passed on to my students, that they should partially release the trigger at the end of they spray stroke. Is there a correct way or is it a preference of the painter? Thanks again for the great channel.
your not killing wasps.. when you stop pulling the trigger, then pull it again, your creating a burst of pressure.. a pulse... this causes blotching.. usually near the edges because thats where you stop and start pulling the trigger,, also some people flick thier wrist at the end of the panel, this causes uneven paint as well..They do this to try and look like they know what they are doing,,, but they dont,,,, it looks like they are throwing as frisbee..
you want to be like a robot.. consistant on every pass. when u flick your wrist, it causes a tendency to move the gun closer to the surface when you start to go back the other way..
concentrate or you distance from the panel, your speed, and the "wet: line of the paint, as well as your overlap percentage. your wet line determines your speed in relation to the distance you are from the panel..
Finally got that color blender out for those basecoat blends I see! Nice! Tbh I do this on almost every mettalic job.
Ha! Yes yes. Also been linking the speedokote one as well for users in the description.
@@PaintSociety yea it's great for blends!
Fantastic!
if you want to check the painted area for good blended metallics. spray grease and wax remover on the painted area. it will act like clear when wet and will dry up with out damaging the paint ready for clear. great vids
U do that?
@@tonydiesel3444 yes. this is the best way to check your freshly based blend panel for coverage, color match and mottleing with out using clear coat but using a wax and grease cleaner instead. try it. iv done this hundreds of times for checking colors. iv also painted over 10,000 vehicles. "experience told me this"
Dont bother telling the people there are up to 15+ different variants for some silvers. Meaning, no matter how well you paint it, it still wont match.
15? Those are rookie numbers. Some greys and silvers have 100+ variants. Camera shot on Toyota 1g3 gave me DV-118 a few days ago.
Also any painter that knows what they’re doing can blend silver without an issue
Stainless steel polishing
@@thomasjustice5364lol our shop has at least 25 saved spray out cards for 1g3 cause it seems like every 1g3 that comes in is a different variant
Take a chip of paint off the vehicle and have it matched
Brian, I thought after applying the blending coat you immediately apply the base so as to have the base fall into a wet bed. in this video you allowed it to flash - confused?? Great video as usual.
Yes you can do that as well. I have been able to get away with just using extra slow reducer instead. Great question
Dose the base coat gun spray solvent and water base paint
The more you sand it gets black omg I found out all this lol
No 1 tip here "if it looks bad before clearcot it will look worse after"
Beutiful worck❤ thank you
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼🎉😎
Do you prefer the DV1 over the exodus?
👊👊
Spraying silver always drives me crazy 🙄 b great if u did a video on color matching that's the hardest part of the job in my opinion
Noted!
Man that looks fantastic, I need you to paint my 50s style hot rod (49 lincoln coupe, chopped top, etc)
Amazing like always. I like your new music 🔥🔥🔥
Your videos are great.
Been spraying for a long time… I still hate shooting silver. I usually charge a little extra for the aggravation. 😂
Each brand of paint requires a little different process in order to get satisfactory results. And for me… now that I’m retired, blending silver is out of the question.
Haha thanks for watching !!
I’ve already painted 2 cars going to my third thanks to your videos and advices. Thanks for your content man really appreciate it 🙏🏼🤝
That’s so refreshing to hear !
Nice song bro.
Is the gun a 1.3 or a 1.4? Love your videos
