      Question though Iv got no issues spraying a set of rims but how to get them properly dry so they don't end up soft

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад +2

      You don't spray in very humid areas and you follow the instructions for allowing them to dry per coat as suggested by your cans instructions

    Thank you for your efforts in demonstrating how to do this. Please to all your viewers and DIYers, although his video is sped up and there are clear markings as to how much time to allow between steps, it is incredibly important to remember to give yourself as much time from the moment you start. Get all your products together so there are no interruptions. Go over a list of all the supplies and the wok is best done in daylight. You will get tired, you will be tempted to cheat on the dry time, you will be tempted to spray more on the first coat, you will be tempted to settle on fewer coats than the recommended 3 coats of each phase, you will be tempted to not do the inner part of the wheel, you will be tempted to not sand or rub some alcohol to remove some loose surface impurities, do yourself a favor, just wait until you can devote a whole morning or afternoon, be patient and thorough. You will be proud of our hard work in the end. I did mine last night (6pm to 2am, time did seem to fly). Poor lighting conditions made me overspray some areas and overcompensate some others. Take your time and do it right. Mine turned out great despite all the mistakes of a first time DIYer. I made my own job harder in the end by not being patient. KEY WORD IS BE PATIENT.

    Man I’ve painted plenty of wheels and tried different techniques but after watching this video I definitely did the set I just painted the best. It was my first time sanding the primer and using 2k clear gloss and I can’t believe how good they came out! Thank you for the tips!

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад

      That is such a nice compliment bro I'm glad this video was of some use I remember when I painted my current wheels on my VW its crazy to think how long that's been and how wheels can make or break the look of a car 😀

    • @sutton590
      @sutton590 Год назад +1

      I just did mine. And the paint scratched off. What do u think I did wrong?

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад

      1) Normal things that cause this are skipping the prep of sanding the wheel or 2) the most common using cheap 1k clearcoat which isn't as durable as the 2k bodyshops use and the one I used in this video proxl or 3) not putting three coats of clearcoat did you do any of those?

    • @sutton590
      @sutton590 Год назад +1

      @THE_JOURNEY I did sand. I used 2k clear coat. I think I may have only did 2 coats. 😪🤦🏾‍♀️
      How are ur rims holding up? I may have to get mine done professionally.

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад +1

      Sand well, 3 coats of primer, sand lightly with 800 grit to flatten the primer, 3 coats of paint and then 3 coats of 2k clear. My wheels are holding up well not sure how long it's been since I installed them 😊 the first time painting can be a bit hit and miss I had similar issues when I painted my first panel and used 1k clearcoat but now if I paint a panel even with cans you'll find it hard to guess whether it was a can or spray gun job it's all a practice thing and once you've done it once as long as you follow the steps and you use good products for example like proxl 2k you'll get amazing results the amount of people that have reached out or sent me pictures of their wheels it's fascinating

    I have watched your video for more than 20 times. I have watched more than 50 other videos about painting wheels but yours is one of the best.
    After washing the car for the first time since I paint the wheels and after a close inspection with a powerful torch I need to re-spray two wheels. The are small patches on which you can see that the paint is thiner but only if you go very close to the wheel.
    Yes, I cut some corners, I haven't been patient. This is it: trial and error.
    Next time I will do a proper job and I will apply clear coat as well. 👍

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Месяц назад +1

      If you follow the process and you throw on three coats of 2k clear you'll have spot on results when I first got into painting I did exactly the same until I learnt my lesson and did it properly 👌

    A beginner's question: to re-spray the wheels do I have to sand down with 800 or 1000 grit a coat of paint in order to apply the new coat and the clear coat?
    Thank you in advance!

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Месяц назад

      I would use red scotch first ,400 grit sandpaper after then do my primer then light sand with 800 grit then go from there don't forget to do 3 coats of primer, paint and clearcoat for best results

    Im going to be doing my wheels soon on my corsa e, in black. Would be ok to put on 4 coats of black when spraying the wheels?
    Then once they are dry four coats of clear lacker so it will last longer.

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад

      Thanks for the feedback if your putting on your colour and it looks like you've not got great coverage then yeah you can put on another coat of black. if you use good products you shouldn't need to put on four coats of clearcoat. For bodyshop results use 2k clearcoat three coats of that and your wheels will be shining and durable 😄

    • @The_journeyy
      @The_journeyy  Год назад

    Nice Job.....As for the comment regarding sanding before Clear coat, its a myth and is a wasted step. The best way to prevent Lacquer peel is to Clear coat within 30 minutes of of your last coat of colour, especially if your paint has laid well. The tacky paint will help the adhesion process and prevent peel.

    • @The_journeyy

      When you paint a car or your wheels you don't take the car to the car wash for two to three months the pressure ruins paint if its not fully cured and set which takes a while you just wash it normally by hand with soapy water and a typical sponge sort of thing 😁

      3 coats of black paint and then

      Yes it matters how long you leave it if you don't let the primer dry properly and you said it the results will not be very good. You don't have to leave it over night like me that's just a preference of mine depending on your location and the temperature in your painting environment if the primer is dry after 1 hour or whatever timescale you can sand it as a bare minimum I'd leave my primer to dry for a few hours if it was a hot day and then sand with the 800 if its a colder day more hours

    do you have to leave the primer to dry over night or is that optional

      No worries bro I left it overnight because that's just a preference of mine means I don't have to spend so many hours spraying in one day you can leave it a couple of hours until it's dry and then wet sand 👌

      So how many coats would you say I should do if I was not to leave it over night?

      @The_journeyy  2 года назад +1

      Still 3 coats for primer, base and clear coat 👌

    I got factory wheels on my Cadillac and there just the alloy ones. Kinda dorky looking. I looked around online for some new ones but I didn't like any of them and there all really expensive when you add the new tires. I'd rather paint the stock ones and get the exact same look as if I were to buy new ones.

      That's what I did on mine when I done these and it made me appreciate my car again hated the old wheels 😊

      @@The_journeyy my front passenger side wheel has some damage from a few months back when some guy side swiped me on the highway. It's nothing serious just some black smudges. The main damage is a little ding on the wheel well just above the tire. Soon as I fix that and the couple hail dings on the hood it should be back to brand new 😁 this is the nicest vehicle I've ever owned my last one was a 96 s10. So im doing everything I can to take care of my Cadillac it's only a 2013 SRX but I absolutely love it.

      @@The_journeyy aside from the couple dings and paint pen messups I still need to fix it does look amazing and it's fun to see all the heads turn as I ride through town 😁 also this could just be coincidence but when I wash my car I notice half the town is over at the car wash doing the same lol. Last time I did it the neighbor down the street started washing his. Love the town rivalry.
