New subscriber here. Just wanted to say that the videos you produce make it so easy to understand and most importantly, makes me feel confident in understanding the task at hand as you provide the steps and procedures in a concise and clear manner. Thanks for your dedication! We take notice.
After years of blocking by hand , we found there was no difference between hand sanding or using a da with a foam interface pad w 320 Came out just as good ! Good videos
It was common practice wet sanding with 400 on filler primer. We achieved great results dry sanding with a da. As long as the bodywork was straight , the results were great.
@@libertyanunion I'm asking to learn here. So what Abt on other surfaces like paint on your car or restoring your headlights (plastics) why would you use a wet sanding method vs dry? Like what's the difference in the end result i guess
Hey guys. I'm a recent subscriber of your channel. I've been a mechanic for over twenty years. I've pretty much done everything on cars except paint. Your videos have been a huge help in learning how to do this stuff properly. I have a 99 Jeep Wrangler Sahara, Forest green metallic (PG8) I want to do my first full paint job on. I've picked up a lot of body tools, and guns. I picked up a Matco hvlp 1.3 for a killer deal. Haven't used it yet, so I hope it's decent. We'll see how things go. Keep up the great content. Keeping it simple is what I love most!
nice video sir,,, im almost 17 years of car painter here in Philippines am using grasurit body filler,, the body you use is soo smooth its very easy to sand,, the technic of sanding is great i like it,, thinks for this wonderful video
It really is. I've seen some pretty atrocious body work in the auto repair industry. I look at some cars and think. How could I possibly do worse than this?😅
Appreciate the content very much especially how your step by step descriptive detail in your edits and voice overs. A lot has changed since my last paint job 30 years ago so I'm pretty much newb status all over again! But thank you.
I build electric guitars, which is pretty darned fun, but occasionally I do car restoration projects. Whatever I'm working on though, I really find the content on your channel extremely interesting and informative. Excellent job; thank you!
Reffering to your question about working on a project - not really a project car, someone bumped into my rear quarter panel when my car was i the parking lot and I decided to fix it myself - that's why I started watching you :D
Hi Chris, great video as always and I'm pleased you like the Porphis 715 as that is the same gun as I had on loan for a while and I was very happy with how it sprayed, for the money you just can't go wrong👌 As always your video was full of useful info and you took us through each step explaining what you were doing as you went along, anyway the finish you got from the 715 was superb and the clear went on nice an flat, thanks for sharing👏🙏👍John UK
Thank you for the video. I am painting cars in Korea. The clear coat product you used and I would like to try applying a nice clear with a spray gun. My English is poor, so it may be in the video, but I'm curious about the name of the clear coat product you use, the name of the spray gun, and the nozzle size.
Your videos are so great! Much appreciated. I've painted cars....but it was probably 25 years ago...so mostly relied on advice from one guy....WAY before RUclips had so many talented folks on it. Also, technology has changed. So...I have a question. I have a 14 year old Toyota with 130K miles on it. It's in pretty good shape...but has some minor imperfections, and I want to paint it, because that engine has a good 10 years left in it. I'd like the body to be protected. I plan to do a Kirker single-stage acrylic urethane, and paint the entire car. I've managed to get all the tiny "dents" perfect by using your incredible videos as a guide. I'm wondering if you've done a video about how to prep a car to do an overall single-stage paintjob....suggested materials, techniques, etc. I'm obviously a "noob." My apologies for not knowing much.....
The prep is pretty much the same for single stage as it is for base coat/ clear coat, with one exception, you can spray over a 320 scratch with single stage. No video's on single stage but one tip put you first coat on lite let it flash and the spray it how you want it to look. Single stage sprays like clear but a bit thinner.
Great videos here, learned a bunch. I'm working on rebuilding a '55 Dodge C3 pickup, just started epoxy priming and blocking. It's a lot of work and time-consuming, but necessary. Hoping to be ready to paint by fall.

I've bin working on a 1964 Impala SS for quite a while ,your video's have been extremely helpful I'm not ready to paint yet ,looking forward to outher gun reports especially the low pressure ones ,my garage is small and I would like as little overstay as I can get Thanks Agatn Jack
Hey Chris. I tried out the Finish 1 FC740 first on a couple of practice panels I have and felt it was a little thick for my liking (orange peelie). Reduced it by 5 percent and right off the gun, I got mirror flat results, so I'd encourage you to give it a shot. Thanks for all the great videos!
Any tips for painting a c4 corvette? There is only one area on the hood that needs some repair. But I’m not sure how to go about it. There is a 1” section that has delaminated.
I would like to see a complete repaint. Im prepping my last few panels and details on a 63 Riviera for silver. Ive watched all your silver paint videos but they are always blends and repairs. How do you approach a binder/sealer application when you have to do jams and all? Its a lot of area to keep wet for the base to settle in to. Thanks for all the material references and good content!
Your the first painter mention what product to actually use when wiping down your panels, but I'm wondering why only 70% isopropyl instead of 91% for a lower moisture content??
Hey man I've been doing auto body repair and paint for 30years but these aluminum body Ford's are kicking my butt what tricks can you show us on repairing creases in doors and beds I feel stupid asking but if you have any repair videos on some of those I'd appreciate seeing them
I wish I had a secret I could share, I use plenty of heat, and believe it or not, glue pulling is the best way. Deep creases that's tough, If it's too large and deep, I'll just write it to replace .Definitely get double the time of steel if you're repairing. If I get the right job, I'll do a video.
@@GarageNoise thanks I do the heat glue puller but our insurance adjuster doesn't understand it's not steel, thanks any help will be appreciated I really like your channel you're the real deal!
Hi Chris, Wow that repair came out beautiful! You mentioned you set the pressure to 20psi for the sealer but you did not say what you sprayed the base or clear at except you mentioned you bumped up the pressure for the clear. Do you remember you settings? I assume that is a 1.3 tip. Thanks Danno
Hi Chris, I went back and review your previous video on the porphis 715. Basecoat-22psi, 3TO from closed. Clearcoat-25psi, 3TO from closed and you used a 1.3 tip. Last question. What adapter did you use on the 715 for the paint cups? Thanks again! Love your videos Buddy!!
Was the floor wet with water around the truck to keep the dust down? Can a wet floor cause the humidity to rise and effect the chemicals being sprayed on the truck?
Do you use elastifiers in your clear coats on plastic parts? I painted my cars bumper last summer (big thanks to your channel for that, I wouldn't have had courage to DIY it by myself. It came out way better than what i was afraid of) and when I was washing it this spring I noticed that there was a small spider web crack in the clear coat. Something obviously deformed/pressed slightly into the bumper and cracked the clear over the winter.
Hi just subscribed your channel. 2 questions. 1. when you clear coat hood in the home garage i see that fumes fall back on the hood. after it dries up i have wet sand and buff. how do u overcome this situation. some say have ventilation exhaust fan bring the garage door half way and let it suck the clear coat fumes.. since hood is horizontal fumes easily land, not a problem with door , fender and other panel because it is verifical. 2. do you have videos that shows different body tools that you use for different types, this will be super helpfu. thanks much
I got a new induction hood and was told to sand off the e coat primer and reprime because it would peel, so I did. Do you think I should guide coat the new primer I put on?
This is a great video!... you have detailed it so well!... I've always wondered how to lay on base coat.. you seem to like to lay it on fairly wet.. this painting thing is not child's play.. it really takes a lot of talent and it seems you're pretty good at it 👍.. it's a real art and as nasty as it can be sometimes it is the ultimate reward... always keep learnin'.. good job! 😀
Hey, I have been searching everywhere for a simple step-by-step guide from the start of painting an old 1994 Ford f150. For a beginner like me, the first thing I need is steps. I have small details figured out, but the order minus small information for now. Do I sand all the paint to bare metal first? Then fix every dent and fill with bondo? than sand the body (with the correct grit) of course?, Than primer? Then what, sand more? Or do base paint? Then sand again, etc. If someone can give me the simplest list of step by step without all the details, I would appreciate it so much. Just a simple 1-10 order list. Thank you
I'll give you my list. I need to make a video on this. First bodywork, the reason for this is if you sand the car first you my not be able to identify all the dents. Second sand car, and strip paint as needed. Then primer block sand prep and paint
Sorry if this has been asked before but what do you do to your guns between coats waiting for the paint etc to flash off? With this gun do you change tips between diff material your spraying?
Im a beginner and i want to know what is better method waiting until base coat fully cures than spray clear coat or spray it after base coat dry to the touch ? In tds they always said that you can spray after 30 min
@@bessem4164 follow the Technical data sheet for your paint some paints have a 12-24 hr window for topcoat some have a shorter window. Personal 2-3 hour is the longest I'll wait.
Could you suggest some reputable brands for materials like paint and fillers? Do you happen to have a list categorizing them into good, better, and best options? I'm in the lookin to buy some and want to ensure I get the best value for my money.
I always look for the best value for the money. There's alot of good options. I use nason xl basecoat, finish1 fc710 clear and upol lightweight gold bodyfiller.
@GarageNoise much appreciated. but I am subscribed, and now that u say that u use the upol as primer and sealer, i remember u talking about in a video. Just cant remember which one it was
I don't know enough about the 717. I know it may have the split tip and I sprayed withth the 629 with the split tip and I like the 715 better. Honestly I think you can a gun that sprays better or is easier to use than this 715.
The 717 works well on lower pressures than the 715, uses less material and is slower as you would expect from a split tip. Both impressive finishes. I have the VS 1.3 and 1.4 and the MP 1.3. I just ordered the MP 1.4. Other than the tip nozzle air cap sets the 717 and 715 seem to be the same gun. Don’t know about longevity yet but as far as effortless finish and ease of use goes let’s put it this way, I have found myself reaching for them over my high end guns.
40+ years ago, early in my electrical apprenticeship, I decided to take some welding classes. After two terms I learned one thing…to always hire my welding done. At this stage of my life I have way more time than money so decided to “to fix” the damaged clear coat on our old desert car. You make this stuff look easy, but I’m having (bad) memories of those welding classes. :-)))
I’m gonna do it but time will tell if I ever wanna do it again! :-))) I guess the important thing is to just try. And, the old paint job was a mess before I started, so what’s to lose? I’ll let you know cuz I’m very close to paint. Thanks for your vids!
I just happened to grab the 800 1st. Doesn't really matter what order 800 or 600. You can clear-coat over either one of those. typically I prefer to clear over 600. It's a little bit more aggressive scatch for adhesion but eight hundred is fine as well.
@GarageNoise that great thanks for that. make sense. Also, if your new to shaping bondo after you get what your initial shape would be wise to sand with a less aggressive paper, let's say 180. So you avoid taken to much of where you have to re wipe
Once again simple stupid instructions a 6 year old can understand. Great job! The only thing I do not understand is the sealant process? In S.A we normally would use spray filler or the new version which is called ms primer. I got to go google paint sealant in S.A.....

I don't know enough about the 717. I know it may have the split tip and I sprayed withth the 629 with the split tip and I like the 715 better. Honestly I think you can a gun that sprays better or is easier to use than this 715.
The 717 works well on lower pressures than the 715, uses less material and is slower as you would expect from a split tip. Both impressive finishes. I have the VS 1.3 and 1.4 and the MP 1.3. I just ordered the MP 1.4. Other than the tip nozzle air cap sets the 717 and 715 seem to be the same gun. Don’t know about longevity yet but as far as effortless finish and ease of use goes let’s put it this way, I have found myself reaching for them over my high end guns.
40+ years ago, early in my electrical apprenticeship, I decided to take some welding classes. After two terms I learned one thing…to always hire my welding done. At this stage of my life I have way more time than money so decided to “to fix” the damaged clear coat on our old desert car. You make this stuff look easy, but I’m having (bad) memories of those welding classes. :-)))
You can do it! Take your time follow the process, I'm here if you have questions.
I’m gonna do it but time will tell if I ever wanna do it again! :-))) I guess the important thing is to just try. And, the old paint job was a mess before I started, so what’s to lose? I’ll let you know cuz I’m very close to paint. Thanks for your vids!
I prefer to paint over 80 grit. That ensures the paint will adhehere to the substrate. If it is single stage metallic. 40 grit is the ticket.
Oh my, I hope your kidding.
@@GarageNoise maybe 🤣
😂😂
no sealer. ive gotten in the habit of using epoxy primer as a sealer and sealing with epoxy
That can be great it certain situations . I've started doingvsome of thatvas well. I did use sealer on this.
@@GarageNoise using epoxy mixed to sealer lays great and seals better than urethane
Why do you 800 to 600.. why not 600 to 800? Wouldn't you wanna base an clear over 800?
I just happened to grab the 800 1st. Doesn't really matter what order 800 or 600. You can clear-coat over either one of those. typically I prefer to clear over 600. It's a little bit more aggressive scatch for adhesion but eight hundred is fine as well.
@GarageNoise that great thanks for that. make sense. Also, if your new to shaping bondo after you get what your initial shape would be wise to sand with a less aggressive paper, let's say 180. So you avoid taken to much of where you have to re wipe
We start painting before porphis existing and we survived
Of course!
Fenders for that truck are like 50 bucks brand new lol

Once again simple stupid instructions a 6 year old can understand. Great job! The only thing I do not understand is the sealant process? In S.A we normally would use spray filler or the new version which is called ms primer. I got to go google paint sealant in S.A.....
