how to paint a car how to paint your car auto paint spray
for a home job, this is really well done. One suggestion I gotta throw in is when masking the wheel openings, I've had success with back-taping the inner lip of the entire wheel opening, then sticking the paper/plastic to the tape. There's no overspray in the wheel opening and tire area & it just makes the job look more professional.
you did a good job. Too many pricks on here saying you did this wrong, you did that wrong, and probably have never tried to paint a car themselves. For a back yard job this is as good as it gets really. Great work man. You've given me the confidence to spray my project car. And probably many others..
Since it appears that you have never painted a car, how did you determine the OP is right, and the critics are wrong?? Perhaps they want to ensure you don't make mistakes they see here. I was looking for full color-change techniques promise in the title only to find half the important details are not even discussed! Why bother? And as someone who has painted vehicles--in and out of work --for 40 years, I GUARANTEE YOU there are far better videos out there for beginners.
@@FisherCatProductions Professional car painter for Audi / Volkswagen for 10+ years here, and i second this. The result on this car was average at best, and that is taking the setup and conditions into consideration. Lot of orange peel, and the painter not wearing proper protection is a big issue for me. Snorting paint fumes is not good for you.
I could of gotten a better finish with an undercoating/ rock guard gun.
I was told to wet the floor before you spray that will keep the dust from getting on the car...
@Caden Zakai stfu
Added humidity can mess with the paint. I've run into issues a few times on that. I hose down the floor and scrub with a dish soap solution and a broom, then pressure wash my floor. Let it dry for a day and then shoot paint.
always wear full face mask spraying clear due to isocyanides !! live another day bud.
He was learning .. if you watch his other videos he is basically showing people as he learns.. he has come a long way since the start. At least he has taken the time to share. I think that’s a good effort for a beginner. Also this is Australia, you guys in US are used to much cheaper prices ... so 1000 respray is cheap for us for a good job compared to 3000
absolutely love the color, im thinking about doing some touch-ups on my car and maybe even a full repaint or recolor and you seem to really know what you're doing, so i think you've just earned another subscriber :D
I’ll always keep this video I’m my liked videos… if it wasn’t for this video I wouldn’t have gotten through my practical exam for Automotive Body Repair in college without a hitch back in 2016… forever thankful!
Thanks for the video.had to change both pass doors due to a lil accident.i got both at junkyard for cheap but diff colors.i followed your steps & got them to match the color of my car silver.didnt have to pay an arm & leg but mostly was fun painting.next project are my rims & then my daughters car when she gets back from college. 👍👍
What's with the 80s arcade game music? For a minute I found myself as Leonardo fighting the final boss on TMNT.
Tmnt mutant nightmares 2 on the gamecube oh my god the nostalgia
That is hilarious but so true lol
This is what RUclips is all about sharing your knowledge. well done
Love that you actually gave a price of everything . Hate watching videos and never know how much a certain paint Job would cost
When i painted mine i baught 5 citronella candles lit them and put them around my car as it dried. It might sound stupid but it works.
@DJVERNONFLAYED hey thanks for watching. if they did f**k up their car ill be happy to take questions and get second and third opinions from people in the trade to help fix the problem.
Excellent video I ever watched on car painting! You give nice details in this video. Great job done. Regards,
The gunman will show you how its done. The gunman best painting vids on the net hands down .
Yes a swirl remover is a better option after using the cutting compound. It is a finer grade of compound that will remove scratches left from the first cutting compound. Then the polish should go on.
@RAJSTA81 Hey thanks for watchin.. You might benefit from clearing black or a dark colour to give it some depth but otherwise there is no benefit to clearing a solid colour. Just sand it and buff it. It will look good.
For someone that enjoys working on their car and takes pride in a job they have done themselves, the price is worth it. Dont forget you will get to keep the compressor, the spray gun and the Buffing machine for future jobs. These items alone account for half the price mentioned.
@bigboy5998 use a 2pack matte finish. Either the sem hot rod black or the alsa soft feel clear. Using an acrylic matte finish will scuff really easily and can crack and fade over time. hope it goes well for ya.
Great,VID,I aint every heard the process explained with such clear explinations,rather than "THE TEXT BOOK"explanations.My mind actually fully grasped it.
I needed this because I just bought an s14 and since it was a fully built drift missile, it didn't have some panels. So I had to mix and match and my car looked like a rainbow. Helped heaps mate.
I've got a spare red s-pack EA Falcon sitting in the drive just begging for a birthday. I reckon this vid explains enough for me to give it it a go. Thanks Dave. Great job!
@remrusty This car is used in the Free Lessons that VG Auto Paints put on once a month. The rest of the car will slowly be buffed and purposely dented scratched and repaired and buffed over and over. I will be our Gemini and a full final product result will be shown in detail.
@thabliz77 it could have come out rough for a number of reasons maybe gun setup. Mixing ratios. Type of thinners. Also of its really hot the paint can almost dry as it hits the surface. Try wind in all the nozzles on your spray gun then wind the fluid out about 3 turns. The fan about 15cm wide and the air about 45psi use 60 parts thinners to 40 parts clear and do about 4 coats.Try sand back the car with 800g and give it another coat of color and clear. Dont dust it on try and be slow and smooth
When I painted my motorcycle years ago, I thouroughly swept and washed the entire driveway (including the retaining wall). When I was ready to paint, I sprayed down the surrounding surfaces and bushes. I ran the risk of increasing moisture in the air, but it really helped trap dust and pollen.
There's nothing worse than getting something stuck in your first layer of clear, only to spot it after your third or fourth layer! Of course, a light sanding between layers helps, too.
@xcharles1 you can do everything the same but you only need to paint the outside of the car if the inside door jambs are in good enough condition.
By cutting back so often and several times it generally ensures any light dust or debris that settles is removed... this is great... can't wait to get another cheap project car to have a crack at...
I painted a fender in my backyard. Primed it and knocked the primer down with sandpaper. Shot color and then clear. Orange peel everywhere. Then, I sanded it and sanded it and sanded it... didn't turn out too bad for having AutoZone lacquer and a Harbor Freight gun...done outside. Unless you're Chip Foose, you're gonna have orange peel.
I should give you a break, though. You probably missed the sanding at 16:34. And you probably missed the previous comment about it.
Yes thats right it is a finer cut. Yeah a hand polish should last about 6 to 8 months then will need to be reapplied. A spray painter would use a 2K clear that dries glossy. So there is no need to cut and buff. But Most of the time to get a really glossy finish they will cut and buff.
@PureDeer95 this car is used for VG Auto Paints free lessons the students have a go buffing it and repairing and blending so its never really finished.
Yes humidity could be a reason for that, it will eventually go away. You can sand with 800g wet and re apply the clear. If you can heat the cans in warm water before using the paint.
@ugkistheclick Hy mate, thanks for watching. A good way to make sure the new colour isnt noticeable is to blend the paint. First use the grey scotchbrite with some flatting paste over the whole panel next to your newly painted parts. Then overlap the paint into the panel without going to the edge. Start small then spray a larger area with each coat. After 3 or 4 coats clear the whole panel. I will be doing a video on this but ill post a video reply of one that VG Auto Paints did.
@puntylicious @puntylicious the compressor was about $370 and it comes with an air hose a cheap spray gun a tyre inflator and a degreaser gun.
As long as you get coverage with your paint and enough clearcoat on. You can always sand and buff it to look glossy and smooth. I have seen clearcoat that is really bad and you would think it needs to be redone. But a good sand and buff brought it up maaad.
Hello, yes wet sanded the car with 600g, using a suitable primer after that is the best option but paint will stick to the 600g sanded area.
I agree I had a quote with my old Acura Integra and It was 3000 for the origional color. That was including to get all dents out and and everything too
He said fuck wearing a mask my lungs are invincible
Mike Woods His lungs are now clear coated. Unfortunately, his brain cell count just was cut in half.
Mike Woods Lets just Huff Paint on youtube LOLZ
if its not a single stage paint, the clear coat will give it the depth and shine that you see on most cars. it will make your job look alot better with it. but its all up to you!!
That can be caused by smashing on the clearcoat too heavy and not waiting 10 to 15min between coats. What is happening is the solvent is trying to escape and causing tiny pinholes as it does. By waiting longer between coats and applying a medium coat of clear should eliminate this problem. Hope this helps
yea thats true. but after each coat you can wet sand, going from 1200 grit up to 2000 after the last coat of color. then the same with the clear. 24 hours after the paint has been laid, you can then buff it out and polish to get a very clean and perfect shine with depth!
fairplay to you mate dnt wrry bout haters .you keep bring these ideas to the nation.love this type of???? show lol
@outdriving08 Hello,
Fill the dents before you apply the primer. Yes if its a solid colour you dont need a clear coat. Although its recommended to put one on.
It is a custom colour. I mixed black and coarse metallic about 50 50. I have looked at a colour chart and it is very close to code:468 Lava Sand Metallic from a Volvo Hope this helps mate.
Hey i recently sprayed my car and had the same question. what i did was use plastic primer on the plastic and then go over that and the whole car with regular primer before painting and it worked well :)
i personally just got the paint(black) and thinner and painted directly after washing the fenders looks great. 3 coats . no sanding no nothing
Mario recommends compressor 2.7 hp fad 205 lpm with workquip gun that has a air consumption listed as 420lpm. Dos'nt match up yet there was'nt any problems with the job. Not doubting Mario's recommendation or work what am I missing or not understanding. From a diy beginner
A car enthusiast who drives a camry.. respect
Hey. If you want full gloss you do need to cut and buff the acrylic. Even a solid colour
Thanks for the video.. was on the fence about doing my jeep another color.. Think I'm gonna give it a shot.. Car looks mint..
I have a mate with a white bonnet on a silver car which I might be spraying to match soon and will be using what i've learnt through your video's to do it. Gonna buy a cheapo panel from a scrap yard first though to practice on. Keep it up.
@sweefu2 Because its a good car to practice on as I dont really care too much about it. Plus I needed a metallic finish as its better to show people how to blend on metallics in the free lessons that I organize.
Great video guys, thanks for the upload! So one man working on this for 4 hours a day would probably take a month to finish, damn.
Hey I use a sundstrom mask. VG Auto Paints have them they are in Sydney.
Thanks for the great video! I'm planning to paint my car soon and this helped heaps!
i love that gun metal paint look. Way better then that fleet car white look.
Great video! Artists at work and this is why I'll pay guys like you to spray my car instead of doing it myself...!
you have done a very nice prep
I'm gonna stick to using crayons.
Behold the most awesome barrel of thinner you'll ever see!
You would need to strip all the paint off the parts that are peeling and re prime colour and clear. You can do the same as this video but use an etch primer over the metal on the parts that have been paint stripped .
the color is simple. The clear is where you have to be careful, as you noticed he had someone come in to do his clear, if you go to fast you will get a grainy finish, but if you go to slow, you will get runny paint, just practice on something first, to get your pace, but it is not as hard as it looks, the only way you learn is by doing it
You should join mighty car mods cause what a grate paint job they did on the Type R lol
Painting is the easy bit. Prep work is always the challenging bit and takes up 90% of your time. Even more if you decide to hand sand the entire car.
yea over $1000 is a lot and you could get someone to do it for you for that price... but personaly id rather spend the money on the gear and do it myself.. then I can say I did my respray my self.. I love doing this stuff and when ur friends see how awesome it looks.. they will soon be asking you to do theirs :)
If using a 2k clear then you shouldnt need to cut and buff. This is 1K Acrylic and is safe to spray at home. It will need a cut and buff to be full gloss.
That paint shop dude lol. G'day mate, where's Sheila? I've got a sheep on the barbie. Holy crap he looked so awkward. Reminds me of myself when I had to give speeches infront of my class. All said he's probably a semi decent guy..... For an aussie :) It still amazes me that Australians are like regular people now. Talking, walking upright, now even spray painting cars... Proof of the evolution theory.
soooooooo, your professional friend is spraying the clear coat without a respirator, without gloves, and without a long sleeve painters suit??? Nice, good job on the safety. Also, he is spraying in direct sunlight!!! Wow!
Its ok once its touch dry sand it with 800g wet and give it another coat of colour and clear until your happy with it.
hi dave just wondering did you spray clear coat inside of the doors ?
It is Acrylic Lacquer.
the shop guy said mate a fear few times haha
Insane respray!
if you make a mistake and the paint runs in somewhere on the car, don't freak out, you can sand it before spraying the clear coat, and if the clear coat runs at somewhere you can also sand it but all you need is very very high number of grit
This is an awesome video. I've been looking for something like this all weekend. They should just make your video the only one on the topic. Thanks man
always good idea to paint your car outside that way the dirt willl get on the body when painting it
Good video. I liked it so much.
great job once again
Good video, and the acting was flawless, amazing editing too, so tasty
Thanks mate. Thats awesome.
Can I just say a guide coat actually allows you to see high and low spots on the panel/substrate where it's dark is a low spot and where there is none it's high it helps when fully flatting of the panel
dave for president..........................
You will get to keep the compressor, buff machine and the spray gun. Thats about $600 worth of equipment. If you can find a place that can do it for that cheap then go for it.
The price is for all materials and tools. Compressor gun and buff.
Thank.. You see Mario is such a pro that he can hold his breath for a whole respray. Some say he was born with filters in his nose.
Loved the color and good tips. Thanks.
V.g great videos giving us hope in spraying in our own pase and backyard love ur vids once again great vids
I'm getting ready to paint on my Acura.... I was thinking about maaco for the painting. But I've not seen so many good things come from them. Ill just get a new Snap-on spray gun and get a few ingersol Rand separators and a regulator and spray it myself... I want my car white... but DAMN I don't feel like doing all that work....
I like all the orange peel you see in the end
Acrylic/ laquer, its the same thing depending on what part of the world youre in! 2k is for newer cars.
excellent work
Oh i did not know that thank you.
Thought don't painters usually paint solid 2k colours without clear? Or is it mixed in?
You do get a compressor, a spray gun and a buffing machine. So you get more then just a paint job.
dave you're the sickest.
Painting quotes also depend on the color. Red and yellow are expensive and black is cheap. The difference is price could be up to few hundred dollars just for the base coat.
Well not if you already have an air compressor and spray gun as well as a few other basic materials that I'm sure most people have or can borrow from friends. For just materials and not tools, it should cost around $300-400 for a full respray with primers, clear, and polish. Of course that can vary depending on the quality of paint, size of car, etc. But $1000 is definitely on the high side for a DIY job.
I would say 25 Gallon is the smallest for painting a complete car. over 40 gallon is highly recommended. If smaller you will have to wait between panels and it will cause losing the wet edge and consequently dry spray on clear. Good luck.
I am in the states also and I have seen paint jobs that go that high and even higher. A friend just dropped $8k on a paint job for his truck and it really shows. I have had a $1k paint job on a car that was in an accident and it looked great at first but it didn't last. I guess it just depends but I usually go with you get what you pay for. I like learning how to do things myself though, really lessens the chance of getting fucked over by someone else too.
Nice video mate
First time I ever heard that clear coat is for metallic colors only. Is this true??? I've always used it no matter what, figuring it would protect the base coat.
Great video dude. This whole channel is an awesome resource-- especially when you're broke and can't afford to pay professionals to do body and paint work for you.
Also, if that guy went to the United States, he would prove about 50 Australian stereotypes in one sentence haha. Great stuff! MAAATE! You know what I mean?
