This was another great video. Your painting of your name may not have been perfect but it definitely showed artistic flair😂 btw I want to know how do they fix mistakes? Can they just flamethrower it or is there more of a process?
Considering I regularly spill water when pouring from a carafe, and also seem to have mild dysgraphia, you did at least as well as I would have, and probably better.
I was just thinking I wanted that as a T-shirt. For all the splatters are unintentional they looking pretty cool! Especially in contrast with the neat and tidy tried
I just love how positive and encouraging Frankie is. Hes super non judgemental and supportive and seems to enjoy showing you the ropes. Realy enjoyable to see :)
If Frankie is like this in his day-to-day job, he is a great boss and I think it would be really nice to be one of his apprentices. It’s amazing to see the skills that are required to make something so ubiquitous.
the bacon, eggs and sausages sealed it for me. imagine being like 3am in the morning fucking freezing and your boss pulls up with breakfast and a pan and cooks you guys a nice breakfast
Considering I bet this kind of thing is completely different for Frankie and his team, he was a natural at explaining and encouraging. That coupled with the unadulterated joy of Matt’s laughter made this an awesome video.
This is my first time watching Matt Gray is Trying and it is very wonderful. Matt was cheerful and so was the staff, and I really liked how helpful Frankie was. The video format did remind me a bit of shows produced on PBS, a (national/public) television channel in the US. I looked at the description and found that the video was in collaboration with Penny4, and while reading the home page of the website, it came a bit of a shock to know that they *also* collaborated with PBS themselves. Truly this video was marvelous and I hope this serious continues after the new year.
Welcome to this episode of Matt Tries... Today we're meeting at the intersection of trying to cook bacon on weird things and Will It Soft Serve. And there's some bonus Technical Difficulties in there as well. A perfectly rounded masterpiece.
Matt, you're a great presenter for a series like this! Technical enough to ask some good questions, and always enthusiastic about learning something new.
The quality and production level of this series is top notch! And your joy - even when getting things wrong - is incredibly contagious. Loving this series 🙌
Also, nobody seems to have noticed that everything said over the donkey engine's rattling was clearly audible, without subtitles. That's the true genius of Matt Gray!

I was blown away by the circles (which highlight things like the switch), placed in position on the element while the camera was moving.
@@Vinemaple I actually was wondering for a moment and then thought that they "just" have the very best lapels for exactly that situation and know their post-production tools very well. True master-crafters!
I'm glad you are making an unofficial 4th season of the "going on adventures" you and your friends did on the technical difficulties. It's very entertaining.
They are a resin based thrmoplastic, with pigments usually organic, or titanium dioxide for white, and glass microspheres All will breakdown slowly except for the glass spheres and titanium dioxide both of which are insoluble and non-toxic
I love this!! In my neighborhood I get excited when they come around with this equipment and the SHINY REFLECTIVE BALLS they stick on top. I pick up the extras from the gutter like the packrat I am inside.
Now I know how, and why there is often a squiggly puddled lines in corner of some parking lots. I could never figure out how that would even happen and now I know it's caused by training people to use the line machine 😆
@@RyanMartin1 yeah, my first thought was, when seeing Matt try: now i know who did 'em! but actually, sometimes, i think lines get squiggly when they melt in sun, that is, when tarmac is soft and flowy and kinda flows and gets wavy. esp if one drives over those lines.
Matt Tried... That's the kind of hazing the new guy I like. Being kind along the way, showing them the ropes, yet still acknowledging how much practice and skill it takes to be actually good at it.
I think Matt just loved doing those mini adventures on the Technical Difficulties, so he decided to make his own series with his own budget 😁 i love it
They are just fun to learn. I have a similar thing that I would love to just drive a tractor once> I have no fancy in becoming a farmer but to drive one once seems like fun. and with something like this the camera crew gives Matt a excuse.
I have some fond memories of these things, weirdly I remember walking to university one day, it was absolutely freezing and with the campus being right on the bloody coast, very windy too. I walked past one of these machines and my god, it was so nice to stand by it for a couple of minutes just warming up.
The end bit was some great comedy. Absolute props to Frankie. Also I already love this series- it's great to see jobs like this most people never even think about, and get to see how much effort goes into it, and you get to try it firsthand- I'm jealous! I got to do this with welding once, but I had a whole week to go from totally incompetent to only mostly incompetent.
What a top bloke Frankie was! And well done Matt. You did so well! If I was trying it, the idea of bending down and aiming the plastic while it (hopefully) drips into the first hand mould, let alone the 2" square mould, all whilst keeping to a straight line *and* moving at the same time is too much multi-tasking. There's no way I'd have done such a good job as you, Matt. These professionals are masters of their craft and I'd happily watch them paint wording on roads for hours.
Also titled: Matt Gray is running around with a flamethrower and a can of paint. Fascinating and it's great to see your excitement as always. People's excitement is mainly why I watch videos like these. And it's great to have you doing these now!
Writing this comment before watching the vid. Matt, It's just... anything you do upload seems fun, wacky, educational and always worth it. Thank you. Now, off to watch.
That "tried..." gag with the cardboard was absolutely solid 🤣 The fact that he said "heres this cardboard in case you need to put the jug down" to make it not suspicious first
I love that you're upping the output as Tom takes break, this is a great concept, paired with your infectious enthusiasm. I can't wait to see whatever else you try and am interested to know if you inadvertently uncover some unexpekted natural talents.
Right away this video was far more interesting than I thought it would be. Then they pulled out the flame thrower and I was like, "This job is awesome!"
What a great video! You’re shedding light on something hardly anyone thinks about. Just goes to show how some really cool things are hidden in plain sight. Now I wanna try this.

How well do you think I did? If anything, I'm just happy it all came out vaguely looking like what I was intending!
You had more fun than being accurate, which definitely helps!
I was hoping to see how they remove lines too.
This was another great video. Your painting of your name may not have been perfect but it definitely showed artistic flair😂 btw I want to know how do they fix mistakes? Can they just flamethrower it or is there more of a process?
Better than I would have done. And your laughter is genuinely great!
Considering I regularly spill water when pouring from a carafe, and also seem to have mild dysgraphia, you did at least as well as I would have, and probably better.
That sign, "MATT TRIED..." with the splatters and all, should be a T-shirt. They should sell it whenever Matt tried something.
Ooh! Matt could try screen printing!
I would love that!
@@stephenwilliams163 Yes!

If this is how he is with new hires as well he's a great boss
Brilliant
Frankie either has extensive media training (doubtful) or he is a genuinely nice guy with a sharp intellect. What a gem of a person.
I know Frankie and he is a genuine nice guy@@cmwh1te
Yeah. Frankie seems like an awesome person.
the bag being part of the paint is so cool!
Talk about zero waste.
More packaging should be designed to be used with the product
That is 100% logical, foolproof and eco-friendly solution. No waste, no headache.
It's such a brilliant idea that should be implement wherever possible! It makes it easier for workers and creates no mess!
Crater grease (very heavy thick grease) can come in bags you just toss into the gearbox. But that's more because it's just obnoxious to deal with
It's rare for a host to be as good at presenting/narrating as they are fun to simply watch giddily try things. Matt is a treasure.
Thanks for Coming Matt!

Frankie is amazing! That reveal when he took the cardboard away xD
I've also got a new level of respect for the line marking crews!
Same!!
I got so much more respect for them seeing how difficult it is
Yeah, that was *amazing*

10:38 "it's like gritty ice cream" and a link to "will it soft serve" appears in the top right.
A+

Perhaps needed a fog horn.
Matt, you're a great presenter for a series like this! Technical enough to ask some good questions, and always enthusiastic about learning something new.
Keep Trying [content]!
The reveal at the end was just lovely! So well done. Adding my name to the petition to make that a T-shirt.
this is lovely- it really helps that Frankie was so engaging, he really gets what you're doing here
Honestly, Matt Gray Is Trying is my favourite series. This guy makes me smile, his energy is infectious. Like syphilis, but nice.
I have always wondered, and now, I will see.
Edit: Also, what a personality Frankie is. I'd love to see this guy just talk about anything
The quality and production level of this series is top notch! And your joy - even when getting things wrong - is incredibly contagious. Loving this series 🙌

@@Vinemaple That's the wonderful thing about videos made by a professional broadcast/audio engineer (Matt)
@@zr413films Yep
@@Vinemaple I actually was wondering for a moment and then thought that they "just" have the very best lapels for exactly that situation and know their post-production tools very well. True master-crafters!
Matt's pure, unadulterated enthusiasm is amazing to see. Just makes me happy watching these videos.
I'm glad you are making an unofficial 4th season of the "going on adventures" you and your friends did on the technical difficulties. It's very entertaining.
See, I was thinking this is like Matt’s version of Tom Scott Plus…
And it’s SO GOOD!
@@FallingofftheGrid
It’s produced by the same people.
"Definitely don't want to put this in an icecream cone" The spirit of Will It Soft Serve lives on
Loved the "Will It Soft Serve" link when he said it, too.
I never thought that line markings would be (semi)-biodegradable, but I suppose it makes sense.
They are a resin based thrmoplastic, with pigments usually organic, or titanium dioxide for white, and glass microspheres
All will breakdown slowly except for the glass spheres and titanium dioxide both of which are insoluble and non-toxic
@@davidioanhedgesthose glass beads are for retro reflectivity right?
@@JuneNafzigerYep. It's almost funny how good retroreflectorsbhave gotten on roadsigns and the like.
I love this!! In my neighborhood I get excited when they come around with this equipment and the SHINY REFLECTIVE BALLS they stick on top. I pick up the extras from the gutter like the packrat I am inside.
I can imagine you jumping into pile of scavenged shiny reflective balls like Scrooge McDuck
That cut to the thunderstorm is such a great example of Matt's humour 😂
Now I know how, and why there is often a squiggly puddled lines in corner of some parking lots. I could never figure out how that would even happen and now I know it's caused by training people to use the line machine 😆
That and the back roads. I've driven some roads where it would help to be drunk to follow the lines.
@@RyanMartin1 yeah, my first thought was, when seeing Matt try: now i know who did 'em! but actually, sometimes, i think lines get squiggly when they melt in sun, that is, when tarmac is soft and flowy and kinda flows and gets wavy. esp if one drives over those lines.
@@RyanMartin1 "First-Day-Lines" 😆
commenting to help the algorithms 😜 really hope your channel does well Matt, your energy and excitement is contagious!
Liking your comment to help the algorithm 😄
Brilliant series Matt! Can't wait to see what shenanigans you get up to next
Matt Tried...
That's the kind of hazing the new guy I like. Being kind along the way, showing them the ropes, yet still acknowledging how much practice and skill it takes to be actually good at it.
Just love that ending with the "Matt tried ..." Such a lovely idea! But needless to say the whole episode is great.
Excellent video. When RUclips puts a big smile on your face, that's a good thing.
I think Matt just loved doing those mini adventures on the Technical Difficulties, so he decided to make his own series with his own budget 😁 i love it
The audience response to his TechDiff adventures was what convinced him that this could be a viable concept. 😊
They are just fun to learn. I have a similar thing that I would love to just drive a tractor once> I have no fancy in becoming a farmer but to drive one once seems like fun. and with something like this the camera crew gives Matt a excuse.
The production quality of this is crazy, I absolutely love what you're doing.
Great episode! Props to Total Linemarking. Those guys were so patient and funny.
"Props"...wtf are you talking about ???
@@monkeyface6139 See here a person who doesn’t know what a dictionary is
@@monkeyface6139 Short for "proper respect", similar to "kudos"
I have some fond memories of these things, weirdly
I remember walking to university one day, it was absolutely freezing and with the campus being right on the bloody coast, very windy too.
I walked past one of these machines and my god, it was so nice to stand by it for a couple of minutes just warming up.
The production quality on this video is stellar, it feels like a TV program I'd say.
That cardboard reveal was hilarious, they seem like a good bunch! Really interesting and fun video Matt
This is a fantastic series. Matt's enthusiasm is so infectious.
I love that the techdiffs did a series and Matt was like:
OMG This is what i want out of life!¡!
I've seen them using the fire to dry the ground out before, but never understood what they were doing.
Very informative.
The end bit was some great comedy. Absolute props to Frankie. Also I already love this series- it's great to see jobs like this most people never even think about, and get to see how much effort goes into it, and you get to try it firsthand- I'm jealous!

The reveal of the "tried..." was so funny :D
"It's such an alien texture, it's like... gritty ice cream!"
*Cue link for Will It Soft Serve*
What a wonderfully timed little self-promotion :D
I love this series. Matt gets to let out his inner child and we get to see some joy on the internet and also get some amazing insights :3
That ending, what a delight! 😂 I’m loving this series 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Oh what a lovely instructor

Loving this series. It deserves way more views than it has currently.
Frankie is an excellent teacher! Explained everything really well and kept it interesting!
Matt's enthusiasm certainly helped!
From what we've seen of this series so far, I've got a feeling Matt does a LOT of research into what companies he works with.
Whoever found Total Line Marking did a grand job, what a great fit!
Matt, you have hit onto a great format here. Please keep it going!
"Wheeled over the paint-baby" is an incredible phrase! Thanks for these incredibly good videos Matt!
You know Matt's having a good time when the scooby doo laugh comes out rehehe
10:40 "it's like gritty icecream", ah a throwback to 'Will It Soft serve'! ❤
Matt is a brilliant solo presenter, very british style that really projects his personality onto the screen
They gave
*_Matt Gray_*
a flamethrower.
Also titled: Matt Gray is running around with a flamethrower and a can of paint.
Fascinating and it's great to see your excitement as always. People's excitement is mainly why I watch videos like these. And it's great to have you doing these now!
This was delightful.
There's a lot more that goes into this than I expected. I love the bags being made of the line-marking resin they contain, that's very clever
Really did not expect the "tried" XD another really fun episode
What a fun video to watch. Matt, your laughter is contagious! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Matt's face when the flamethrower comes out. :)
hahaha that ending is brilliant!!!
If I get bored with my current line of work, this series is a good source for odd jobs that I did not think about.
At about 10:43 i love the little plug to will it soft serve!
It's so wholesome to see these guys being such good sports about this, and how proud they are of their work. Justifiably so.
Imagine potential customers coming to their yard and seeing Matt's work in the carpark
The big reveal at the end made me laugh out loud! 😆
This is quickly becoming one of my favourite series.
Your joy and genuine interest are infectious!
Line marking with Total Line Marking. Can’t wait to see Matt mark lines!
Totaaaaaaaaal!! What an amazing idea! I get the sense this vids are all gonna be so amazing. Pls pls pls everyone, let's make it be feasible for him ❤
This has to be one of my favorite videos on youtube ever, and it's about line marking...
The way these folks looked after you and made it into a real challenge, actually slightly weepy with how lovely it all was. Well done all round!
Today I Learned... like forty different things from this video, and enjoyed it the whole way. Exactly what I want from youtube. Cheers!
Your genuine joy at this was glorious, Matt! This series is genuinely wonderful, good work
I mean, Matt’s second attempt looks much better than some I have genuinely seen in the wild
The freehand comparison section made my day so much
Huge thanks for spending the money on proper subtitles! 🙏
I spy Matt's experience from Will It Soft Serve coming in handy at 10:50
Fantastic video as always. Your excitement is infectious.
Imagine pulling into that firm's carpark about to book them for a job and seeing Matt's wobbly lines, you'd be like NOPE!😂
I'd just assume it what they have the trainees do. Better to have them lesrn on private land.
I never thought about how these markings are made. Thanks for this video!
Writing this comment before watching the vid. Matt, It's just... anything you do upload seems fun, wacky, educational and always worth it. Thank you. Now, off to watch.
I really enjoyed Frankie's attitude and energy. Such a good camera presence!
Seems like a lot of fun! I never knew they did parts of it essentially freehand like that.
That "tried..." gag with the cardboard was absolutely solid 🤣
The fact that he said "heres this cardboard in case you need to put the jug down" to make it not suspicious first
Matt's giggling is infectious. He's having so much fun doing something mundane.
I love that you're upping the output as Tom takes break, this is a great concept, paired with your infectious enthusiasm.
I can't wait to see whatever else you try and am interested to know if you inadvertently uncover some unexpekted natural talents.
Right away this video was far more interesting than I thought it would be. Then they pulled out the flame thrower and I was like, "This job is awesome!"
I now understand why, when visiting England, Scotland, and Ireland, road markings seemed "thick". Very interesting, thank you Matt!
Damn Jamie took some nice shots to assit the narrative, well done
damn thats such an interesting job I never thought about. Huge respect for the people who do this in all kinds of weather day in and day out.
Really good quality. Well made Matt and team!
Another great episode 😄 Looks like a proper workout indeed and so many things to get right at the same time 😮
Frankie was a great instructor, and really got into the whole spirit of the experience. This was wonderful!!
What a great video! You’re shedding light on something hardly anyone thinks about. Just goes to show how some really cool things are hidden in plain sight. Now I wanna try this.
Thank you for the captions!
Frankie was a delight and I’m so glad I watched this!
That tried is clean, Frankie an absolute legend
Love the series
