Hey everyone I am the proud mama of this painter he is awesome at work and anywhere you see him I love him to the moon and back his mom Hattie Polston
I’m glad you raised such a wonder man!
Will he travel to Chicago to do a car?
Good on ya Mum! 👍
Damn you must be older than the hills
Good job Momma! You raised an artist. He's really good!
Guy painted a perfect 'O' in one stroke ! Superb ! 🙌
Pretty sick old school lettering. Dude has some real skill.
What a dying breed. Legends
I think every race car should be hand letterd looks way better than A regular wrap and A hand letterd race car looks good when it's on the race track 😍😍😍
Br/SC Jaraguá do Sul- SHHOOOOOOOOOWWW!!!!!!!... parabéns pela ARTE !..
I love old school, hand Jobs.
Great job Tom. “A lefty like me”
Wow awesome job. You don’t see hand painted racecars anymore and this 75 car looks really good. Good luck this year Andrew and James 🏁
Definitely alot better looking than a wrap! Nothing like an old-school PAINT Job #SaveTheDyingArts
Great to see a lefty painting. I am just starting to learn how to do the old fashioned lettering and I am a lefty too.
Friggin awesome. Good stuff.
We sign painters are a dying breed. People are going to vinyl lettering now because when they tear a panel up, its a lot easier to replace it with vinyl lettering and cheaper too!
The way he answers yeeeeeah.
Sounds like he from NC
That was awesome to watch!! Truly talented.
This guy is a magician with those brushes!
Thom E. Is a cool dude!!
He did an outstanding job.....car looks AWESOME
Wow that car is thing of beauty
this looks so amazing !!! this man needs to do more race cars !!!
This is so unbelievably cool. I've completely rebuilt my literal "barn-found" 65 mustang over the past year and a half and I think learning how to hand-letter is my final step. It'll take a lifetime to get that solid but this is amazing.
Brilliant, well in control of the brush.
This guy is Amazing haven't seen this done in years..
That’s a awesome talent and car looks good.
Second best day of the new season, first firing the motor for the first time second the day that DELCO Signs (Dave) would show up to hand letter our race car. Sign painting is a dying art I miss the hand lettered cars. Take care guys and stay safe.
I've been lettering for years, I just like to watch other artists techniques. This man has got a great style. I learned from a man similar to him, Mr. George Strickland from Laurens, SC.
How were you able to get him to teach you? I'm also getting into hand lettering. I'm from Kershaw, SC. It's pretty cool to see that there is people around me that do hand lettering.
@@MYartiisMuRdEr Mr. Strickland wouldn't actually teach me, I used to watch him and copy what he did. His son, Little George, showed me the ins and outs and the different brushes for sign work. I prefer squirrel hair brushes, but I can letter with most any of them. It's a dying art, so glad to know it's still going right now. I also got into air brushing a few years back.
My dad had a guy do that in the 70s on his race car. Lost art form
I like the old school lettering
Dude makes it look easy, but that is hard to do, it takes years of experience to be that good....hats off...
Absolutely incredible 👌 old school lettering and pinstriping is a dying thing with all this new vinyl which is such a shame. Truly talented and amazing job!!!
That's some amazing old school talent thanks for sharing.
That’s old school cool. I’ve seen a couple of guys hand letter cars, but the best I seen was Roby Combs in Shelby NC.I watched him do a friends car back in the 80’s and he did that car as fast as you could put the vinyl on. Our car was done in vinyl be Randy Powell in Lincolnton, he does a lot of the local cars here. I definitely love the old school look
That's talent. The guy's a true Artist.
This guy is really good👍. I too have been doing pinstriping, graphics, airbrush, lettering for 28 years. I keep hearing its a lost art form, and to some extent there right. However 2021 has been my busiest year ever. Paint on!
I’m looking to get into this line of work. I have body work down, wrapping, and painting. But I can’t figure out what paint is best for hand painting a car like this. Would you happen to know?
Very good job by this guy ,
Love the videos cuz. Same guy lettered my cousin's car when we used to race.
tak about a steady hand! pretty sick!
Dang I wish he would letter my race car 🔥🔥
always love the oldschool look
This guy is killing it 😍
i wish i can sed more of this guy's HAND painting works..
I'm amazed ... I worked after the Army, I took a job with DOD and ended up head of the sheet metal dept... I hand painted all the signage... I was spoiled, climate control massive work shop. Move to Australia in 1979 and worked in some truck yards, hot over 90 degrees ... tons of linseed oil to slow down the enamel... wraps use none pigmented inks ...short life and the vinyl lasts at best 7 years... One shot last longer...
Descobri esse video agora e já virei seguidor, Vale a pena, pois ele é incrível.
That is some real talent
Well and good work
I've seen my uncle's late model get hand painted in the 80 s. This guy is good. 😂.
It looks like he did this whole car with one brush. Would love to know what brush he was using.
How does he make those stencils
The fact he didn't make a single mistake is crazy
That dude is badass very Talented guy
Very very nice
U r grate teacher best ofluck
That looks great!
That's way too cool awasome job on it
This dude is amazing.
Had he ever been to palm beach speedway in flor there was a guy who would come to the track to do this before wraps an decals
Amazing
I wondered what brush Thom would have used for the loose script such as team names etc? A link to supplier would be great if any signwriter sees this comment.....Thank you for help and inspiration.
I Love the time sequence
Man thats old school, looks really good. What kind of paint works best?
Sick SSZ
How do you race with a body that beautiful!?!?
Awesome! What kind of paint was used?
1 Shot
How did he make that stencil so big, did he trace the letters on a projector?
Amazing job
We had a guy in cannada when my dad was stationed air force up there and we owned and bought Northway speedway it's a 1/4 mile asphalt track my moms car and all the others was hand painted and lettered like this qe spray gun the paint then call the hand letter guy come over and paint the letters and numbers they looked so sharp and good bright Shiney custom deep gloss paint job qith glossy deep color hand lettered numbers and letters the cars looked so good. Je had been hand lettering since the 60s signs rqcecars and all he did it when we was there on her cars that was in 2001 to 2004 till we moved here and the asphalt mustang mini stock my dad built me before we moved back to Alabama he had the guy hand letter it as well and the paint was so shiny on the body was like glass and the hand paint letters everyone when I showed up for my first race in 2005 at age of 10 ppl came to my pit drowling over how pretty my racecar was. If you get a really deep pro custom glossy paint job and a really good hand letter job it will turn heads I promise we had some of the most beautiful looking v8 superstores at that track then anywhere else our track was known for beautiful paint jobs hand lettered beautifull cars that shined and raced under the sun om every Sunday starting at 11 am it was so much fun I got to run a few races there came here with no practice in my mini stock and first race and lapped whole field and won that night. I have had almost all my racecars hand lettered like this looks so much better under the lights as well. Yalls car looks awsome forst time in a long time I seen a hand lettered dirt car ever its all vinyl except when I ran my first ever dirt race 3 years ago my street stock is all hand lettered and love it looks so bright and shiny at night under the lights and of course I got a 10 layer clear coat on it wet sanded and buffed and hand letter job was also clear coated under the ten coats key to get the letters to last long is lay down base color hand letter the clear coat whole car with a bunch of layers the.n every few weeks or so wet sand and buff the letters and numbers and they will look brand new qith no scrapes mud scratches as long as it didn't go past all the layers of clear
It's just the look you can't get with vinyl like the shadowing that he does only hand painting can you get it to look like that vinyl don't have the look I love hand painted racecars I have mine hand painted twice a year and new body twice a season as well if it gets really bad
That’s rad! What type of paint is he using?
A lost art. Not too many cars are done that way anymore. Only a handful I know of on the east coast. The wraps look nice but I can tell you from working at my local track in the timing tower, some of the wraps are hard to make out. Sometimes, plainer is better. Car looks awesome! Its more of a shame when the hand lettered cars get torn up.
What’s the paint used? I’m considering doing this to my daily, and don’t know what type of brushes and paints to use?
How does the cost of a wrap compare to a hand lettered job like this? The car color can also be included in the cost by hand.
That's Awesome
What paint adheres best to car exteriors? I need a paint that holds it's color without fading and stays very hard even before clear coating. Any preferences?
Can you please please share with us what type of paint he is using?
Lefty like me!
I know he said starting price was $200 but would you mind sharing how much this job cost?
I hope he charged more than 200 bucks for all that work. It looks great
I'm from Gaffney sc.... where is he located? I would like for him to do our car!!!
Awesome shit
Nice👍👍👍👍👍👍
so clean! what kind of paint is it? house paint?
I believe it's automotive one shot? But I could be wrong
The ultimate in cool 😎😎😎
That’s a lost art for sure. Wish there were more of these old school dudes left.
What kind of paint did he use?
I would have smudged that wet paint 75 times
Dude can whip a brush tho
What type of paint does he use? Automotive? He does awesome work.
Typically, We use 1Shot enamels.
can anyone tell me what kind of paint and pencil he was using?
what brushes is he using
I wish he'd come to Indiana an letter my 55 gasser
What kind of paint it he using
My uncle hand painted ronnie Johnson's car back in the day
Damn! l cant think of a better 4 letter word, l have no breath.............
I love seeing hand lettered racecars, they're awesome. Though from this video he does seem a little bit sloppy on a few places. It could be the camera angle showing it a bit weird than in person. Personally I think the numbers are way to small and narrow, locally ours are required to be a little taller and a bunch wider.
Where is that video of ur car that u where doing that u got
I wouldn't want to race it and risk ruining a perfect paint job because some rookie tries to overdrive the corner 😅
Not enough clear coat to protect from those first lap first turn winners....
Same to see all that nice work get ruined in the first race
Your car will get lots of attention in the pits. He puts the peel and stick vinyl boys to shame, imho.
