Hey @Iron Gordon i learned about a Denim compound cutting pad that can work out your 2k clear coat orange peel & imperfections without sanding, then move on to polishing,...& you know, careful on the edges.
As an automotive painter, for an even deeper shine you could spray 3-4 coats of clear then wet sand it with 1000 spray it again and you’ll get a very deep shine, also you should buy a heavier cutting compound such as Wizard Mystic Cut (i prefer it over others because it’s water base and doesn’t leave hard residue) and then meguiars #7 or either the meguiars you’re using it will most defiently improve your quality
okay, I am going to help you out. the job is nice, but you have to admit, it could pop a little more instead of having a milky reflection of the lights. if you want to really have a mirror finish where you can read a newspaper in the reflection, you have to use different polishing technique. First, you have to use a rubbing compound to remove all of the scratches!!! Otherwise, you are just polishing the scratches; which is what happened here. After the compound follow up with polishing compound and finally with ultra fine polish. each time using different buffing pads made for each job. Never cross contaminate. I am not writing to criticize your work, I think it is fantastic. You just need to finish the job. I hope this helps, BTW, I have been doing this for 35 years, I know what I am talking about. oh, and yeah. I like how you emphasized safety, most people don't read the can..
That palm buffer isn’t anywhere near powerful enough to correct the wet sanding. Going to 3k then 5k and finally hitting it low speed with a foam pad and cutting compound then work your way back to polishes and a glaze with a DA will yield better results. That paint job is killer though!
I liked it alot good job but he's right , when you learn to cut and buff with a automotive type setup it will take your art to the next level. I recommend practicing on your daily driver just to get a feel for it.
PS, I love how people suggest an improvement, as if this isn't a video on how to do a quick and dirty rattle-can job. They all want to tell you how this could be improved, if you were to do a "Professional" "By the Book" "Top Notch" $2K paint job. That's NOT what this is. It's how to do a killer "At Home" job, with little-to-no "Special Tools". I just think that they should keep this in mind, prior to telling you how to do something completely different than what you have perfectly shown us. This is THEE BEST at home, cheap, totally "Work with what you've got", and be creative video that I have seen. So, again, thanks!
Haha, yeah...while I'm willing to learn and appreciate peoples constructive criticisms, I think that the diy aspect of this job gets over looked by the experts that chime in.
Saw the thumbnail of this video and instantly clicked on it. I was not disappointed. Absolutely the best spray can job on a guitar I've ever seen. Stunning work. I am subscribed!
Wow! I first watched the previous vid where you do the silver metallic flake and I was really impressed. Then when you said you were going to use that to create another look I thought that was insane, but the end product you produced is like a work of art. It's unique and vibrant and 50 years from now I'm sure it will still be blowing people away,
Okay, I'm gonna help you out. Ignore the boomers and know that what you've done here is nothing short of magic. There are a lot of young kids in my hood that wanna paint their bicycles or skateboards kandy, but of course they don't have the resources to do that. Now, I can point them in the right direction. Simple instructions and humble materials; it's perfect for those of us who love this style but are tight on money. With all that's going on right now, people need something constructive to pass the time. God bless, and thank you for the inspiration!
HA HA thanks! yeah some of the experts have missed the DIY/budget friendly aspect of this project. could the results be show room quality if you used a $200 buffer and $40 bottles of polish? SURE of course it, can but if you want to make something shine with consumer grade supplies, its totally do-able! Thanks for your comment I appreciate it!
I've watched 100's of guitar build videos and never seen anything like this. Very cool approach and the result is stunning. Aside from the 2K incident (you're right to be very afraid of it - it's great but it will kill you) you really showed some cool new (for me) techniques. Gracias!
Unbelievable man. Can’t thank you enough for your wisdom. Love the way you make it very understandable and humorous. What a piece of artwork. You have a gift 🎁
Super glad that you included that tedious part of sanding and buffing it. Lots of dudes just show the finished product and not how they got it. Good job to you.
Loved the happy accidents reference. Bob was no doubt one of the greats in the history of painting. He calm demeanor and unique style was entrancing to watch and mimic.
Dude once again that is awesome. Great work man. By watching your videos not only have you given me full confidence to do the repaint job on one of my guitars I am doing, but with part 1 and 2 of this video series you answered all of my questions. Thanks man. Keep up the good work.
This was beautiful to watch from start to finish. I was actually looking for how-tos on painting my guitar’s hardware; however, WOWZA! WHAT A FIND! Thank you so much. Brain Candy, for sure. I'm so grateful I stumbled upon this and watched the entire "I dunno, abt ten minutes." 🎸✌️😉🎸
Thank you so much that was an awesome 3 part explanation and gave me some crazy cool ideas I’m a musician and professional tattoo artist of 37 years and got some killer ideas from you!!! Super cool!!!
The most beautiful job I've seen anyone do on a guitar yet. I've got an epiphone I've been modding. I did a terrible job relicing it and now I think I know what to do about it. Thanks.
Iv watched this and the previous vid like 20 times in prep for spraying my motorcycle tank,fenders and side covers I cant wait to give it a try that les paul turned out amazingly
Very nice work bro! Just a FYI Red scotch brite is equivalent to 400grt After activating your clear coat, if you want to get a bit more time out of it before it hardens in the can, lets say for another small project, through the can in your refrigerator till your ready to use it. It wont last weeks, but it will extend what they call the "pot life" Cheers
That paint job came out pretty nice. I gleaned some good ideas from watching your video, and I am inspired to try some of those techniques on a Stratocaster project. Thanks for the demonstration. Your guitar looks awesome, I hope mine turns out looking satisfactory. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Please have an excellent and awesome day! 🙂
This video took me back carnalito to my younger years of making low rider bikes n painting them d same way...can’t forget d lace..lol...wow..then it me to my high school years turning my 73 Buick riviera into a low rider n pinstripes paint wit candy colors...could of used ur guitar back then to serenade to d China’s homie...lol...love ur work carnalito keep it d skills n ur videos u got d esse audience for sure homie
Ok, first, I love you're keeping up with comments. Second, I use that 2k rattler clear on EVERYTHING. From preservation of patina on antiques to rc bodies to $40k car touch ups. I pay about $20 a can, so it's definitely not out of the question for the average diy projects. Love what you do.
Great videos, helpful as alll heck. I should have watche BEFORE I applied glitter ... I'm also been using the automotive clear coat 2 part and it is great,, but yeah, respirator mandatory.

Dude, that was sweet. Got yourself a new subscriber.
Seriously you make me want to cry. The way you work is as if I was having a wet dream. No I'm serious.. I don't want to paint anything ever again. It is so beautiful. When you applied the lace...I thought I'd have a fit! Love lace and how come I haven't thought of it!? It is so obvious. I'm in awe. Guess you can tell I'm not a painter I just love seeing a pro at work it brings tears to my eyes. When someone has their shit down to the point that they can improvise and kill it...that piece of holed metal grid...so much fun! SR.
Thank you! What your seeing is years of screwing things up and starting over to get to this point, and I'm still learning with every project. Thank you though that was a rad comment to get! Keep painting!
Your video has totally inspired me. Working on a Jazz Bass. Cant find Rattle Bomb retail . Will use testers. Cans are too small,but it should get the job done. Thanks for the inspiration!!
Killer job! Definitely mirror finish it with 800/1000/1500 (maybe even 2000 finish) to get the orange peel out, then a rubbing compound cut, machine glaze, and final hand rub paste.
5or 6 years ago,I painted one of my guitars using pretty much then same methods that you used on this guitar. Today the guitar shows it's age but all in all,it still looks pretty good.
I’ve been doing sparkle jobs on my guitars and rc boats for years the traditional method metal flake mixed with clear with a spray gun but it’s very messy and tedious and lots of cleaning I wish I knew that sparkle came in a can years ago 👍
It's absolutely beautiful 😍👍😊 but how come .ost of the graphics are on the back???? Im getting ready to do one also so i thought I had better ask. Thanks 😊😊😊
The Bob Ross reference was awesome!! I'm getting ready to copper flake a project of mine but I'm not as skilled as you putting tape on. Keep kicking ass!!
just wanted to express to the DIYer's of the group here.. When spraying with 2 part clear coat, you must be completely encapsulated! The "poison" seeks moisture. I.E. your eyes, mucous membrane, nasal passages, skin/swear glands, ect. FULL PPE!!! Proper airway protection, full face type (not half mask). AUTOMOTIVE painter suit, not Home Depot's cheap suits. Latex gloves and shoes (not sandals). OKAY, NOW GO PAINT!!!!!!
Here's part 1 where I metal flake this guitar first, using big box hardware store paint ruclips.net/video/N8kgIoh_CDs/видео.html
incredible! do you offer your services ?
id love a custom paint job on my guitar
could someone skip the triple glaze and polishing from part 1 if you do both parts to your guitar?
Awesome Job! Quick question, can you skip the polishing and just level sand then go the the candy process and after that level sand and then polish?
Hey @Iron Gordon i learned about a Denim compound cutting pad that can work out your 2k clear coat orange peel & imperfections without sanding, then move on to polishing,...& you know, careful on the edges.
😂😂😂😂😂
I took your warning so seriously that I went to another room while you were spraying 💀 Excellent work Gordon! 👍
Haha that made me laugh! 😂
Hey there were three warnings on the can!!!
Always wear a condom so your fully protected.
Leftover paint on your hands could still be toxic especially during palm polishing
That is funny! Hey Sparky funny seeing you here.
🤣😂

@@welcometotheinternet4215 I was only trying to help. There was absolutely zero negativity in my comment. Offering advice isn't criticism.
You are 100% right sir.
Anyone that's done any kind of post paint finishing work for the automotive industry knows that this guy is correct.
That palm buffer isn’t anywhere near powerful enough to correct the wet sanding.
Going to 3k then 5k and finally hitting it low speed with a foam pad and cutting compound then work your way back to polishes and a glaze with a DA will yield better results.

This boomer likes it. I saw where a millennial didn't. Damned millennials.
Your taping skills is absolutely everything 👌
Wow, this is one of the more creative paint jobs I've ever seen on a guitar. This is really amazing work.
Thank you!
Hey, I'm going to help you out ... by telling you that this is dope AF. Stunning work. So good that I just came back to watch it a second time.
Ha I see what you did there, thanks I appreciate the support!

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it and picked up a thing or two!
Wow that is likely the best refin I have ever seen on a guitar. Your skills are above and beyond!
I've been researching finishes for a long time, and you really nailed down some good technique. Thanks for sharing.
Unbelievable man. Can’t thank you enough for your wisdom. Love the way you make it very understandable and humorous. What a piece of artwork. You have a gift 🎁
Hell yeah, this was a sweet paint job...
First time viewer here, and I subbed right away.
Can't wait to see more.
Super glad that you included that tedious part of sanding and buffing it. Lots of dudes just show the finished product and not how they got it. Good job to you.
Thanks Donny! very tedious work and I still have lots to learn about buffing
The most beautiful guitar I’ve ever seen. Very cool man.
So NICE! I am totally doing this!! Gold Flake and Silver Flake for the win!
This might be the best DIY spray paint guitar video I've seen. Thank you so much for this!!! Great and amazing work!!!
Wow fantastic. Never seen a guitar done like this. It's beautiful
Loved the happy accidents reference. Bob was no doubt one of the greats in the history of painting. He calm demeanor and unique style was entrancing to watch and mimic.
Ha thanks! He was truly a legend

Appreciate it thank you!

Very inspirational episode the result is not only speaking for it's self but it is also very convincing.
I'm about to paint an old Black Cast Iron Singer Sewing Machine. This was very helpful to that process. Great Job !!!

Thank you so much that was an awesome 3 part explanation and gave me some crazy cool ideas I’m a musician and professional tattoo artist of 37 years and got some killer ideas from you!!! Super cool!!!
I didn`t much go for the pattern but your technic, mate absolutely brilliant
Back again. Great talent. Well done.
OMG ! wow !!!

Awesome thanks so much for the compliment! Good luck on your project let me know if I can help in any way 👊
Great job. I loved the Silver flake and your Gold flake.
Now THAT is GORGEOUS!! It would truly be an honor to own that guitar. Beautiful work, man!🤘😎
Thank you so much I appreciate it! He was pretty excited about it
beautiful job my friend
I'm an artist myself ( jewelry designer) but this guy it's great... I'm about to buy a guitar and practice what I saw.
Iv watched this and the previous vid like 20 times in prep for spraying my motorcycle tank,fenders and side covers I cant wait to give it a try that les paul turned out amazingly
Doing the same thing right now, how’d yours turn out
Good job Gordon, loved the result
You got it...been playing with rattle cancandies a while ,but never knew a good brand ...til tonite...thanks
Very nice work bro!
Just a FYI
Red scotch brite is equivalent to 400grt

Beautiful job. I cannot comprehend why the client would want more detail on the BACK of the guitar, but okay, whatever. Looks amazing regardless.

Nice job on paint ..used to work OVATION 45 YEARS ago .
Dude...that is just awesome. What a great paint job! Beautiful!
Damn that came out killer! I wanna do a black flaked guitar now!
This is one of the coolest things ive ever seen. Thank you. gary/texas
Nice! thanks so much
Killer job! Definitely mirror finish it with 800/1000/1500 (maybe even 2000 finish) to get the orange peel out, then a rubbing compound cut, machine glaze, and final hand rub paste.
nice appreciate the tips!
This was really interesting. I’m inspired to use your technique on my next guitar project. Thanks for posting this.

Always looking for more technique tips and tricks. Subscribed. Nice job on that axe, dude.
5or 6 years ago,I painted one of my guitars using pretty much then same methods that you used on this guitar. Today the guitar shows it's age but all in all,it still looks pretty good.
Nice! Always good when something that has time invested in it last
I think I know what to do now. Thank you 🙏🏾 🔥🔥🔥
Wow that’s fire! Great job
That is some beautiful work. I have a feeling if I tried it it'd look like a three year old finger painting.
Great video, I love candy paint!
This guy is a Paint God. Great job #inspired
Mad skills with the ole rattle can
Wow! What a fine piece of work.
Glad you like it!
You got some serious skills, you definitely make it look a lot easier that it is..

beautiful job my friend
The Bob Ross reference was awesome!! I'm getting ready to copper flake a project of mine but I'm not as skilled as you putting tape on. Keep kicking ass!!
Thanks! Tape is cheap but a couple rolls and practice on some thing you don't care about first 😁
That was amazing!. Thank you for your video.
Nice paint job man!!!
Nice work, bro!! You have inspired me to try it also.
Very nice! A true work of art. I think the pick guard would look better in a dark wood, instead of black plastic.
Excellent video
