Much love Kandy Man .....just a heads up....Sep 11 2033 is the end ...aka Judgement day ....God gifted me with this knowledge.... not fun to lean but it is the truth - Jay Fox
Don’t let the writer know about the 2 stage formula so you can keep the 3 stage time 😂
Kandy Man - full time painter, part time motivational speaker.
You speak the truth, and I know it works because I live that way myself.
💪💪🙌

A great message, Kandy Man! I did exactly as you recommend, had a successful career, and retired at 58. I now have the freedom to do as I please, fixing up old 'vettes.
Awesome , congrats 👌
Great advice. Thinking about hour a day of dedication for a full year. 365 hours =9 weeks of 40 hours. Have a great year....
You are on the right path. Keep at it 💪
Wow Kandy Man!

Straight up life advice then shoots the kandy on with a fire house all with excellent videoography and real background sound so you can tell that's not sped up!
Happy new years and thank you!
Thanks man I appreciate it
Happy 2025! Thanks for the great video and nice to know I'm not the only one trying to manage work, family and a healthy lifestyle at the gym! Never seems to be enough time.
🙌🙌
excelente video como siempre amigo Kandyman! ademas enseñándonos sobre la mentalidad del esfuerzo adicional! un abrazo y los mejores deseos para este año que comienza amigo! saludos desde Chile!!
Thank you, and the best to you 🎉🎉👍
When I started in the trade my mentor told me the long way is the quick way. In short don’t do shortcuts and do it right the first time. I still try to do it this way even after 37 years of painting
Great Video Kandy Man. ❤🔥 I love watching and listening to your content as you describe the day to day life struggles and how to overcome them. I live by a similar rule when it comes to day to day life.... "Do the hard right, over the easy wrong!" 👍
Appreciate that. Thank you. Hard over easy no doubt 💯
@5:37 Yes I've used American Tape forever and I noticed this on my latest batch a few weeks ago
My first thought is they've changed the formula and gone slightly cheaper on the Adhesive
I love how strong that tape is
I'm a fan myself, but not lately
Amazing video to kick off 2025 Kandy Man, the filming and the video editing seemed more professional as well👏this colour reminds me of the 41V both of which are amazing colours and you did a fantastic job getting the match spot on and as you said you could panel paint this colour👌
On my system this is called Ultra Red and it's a 3 stage so with yours being a 2 stage Glasurit did a great job replicating this colour🙏👍John UK
Yes, I've been working on the video quality. I'm glad to hear it's better. Thanks again, my friend
Happy New Year brother. Stick to your guns. Your daily workout will definitely payoff. Keep the great content coming. Love your channel. Enjoy your weekend!!
Will do that. I appreciate the support
I try to keep it consistent. Sometimes I feel like my goal is years away. Especially since I’m stuck doing boats at the moment. This is the year I move. I’ve saved up enough now I’m just waiting for may to come for my sons last scheduled doctors appointment and then we plan to move 300 miles away towards family and opportunities. Great advice! Just have to be there.
It takes time but you are on the right path! You got this!
I definitely had the orange tape proplems and base flaking off as i clear. Switched to American tan tape and no issues. Great video as usual 👌
I like the motivation. Right on. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks for sharing
Glad you're liking the content 👍
Awesome as always man!
Thanks, I appreciate it 👍
Good advice, set those goals and keep driving until you hit the mark.👍
That's the mindset!
Wise words thank you brother 🙏
Happy new year...... broooooo🎉 kandyman the best ❤
Thank you
Happy new year i really appreciate your advice and i will be putting it to practice
Appreciate you, keep grinding!
Kandy Man wszystkiego najlepszego w nowym roku oglądam cię jesteś bardzo dobrym fachowcem pozdrawiam jestem z Poland👍
Thank you
Brilliant video there thanks for sharing that information very useful 😊
Happy New Year thank you for sharing brotha,,, hopefully this year they give me the chance to start spraying already 👍
That’s how a body shop should look like 👍
You can buy premixed paints from reputable autobody paint suppliers give them the colour code and the amount you need theyll make it its cheaper then having to buy different gallons and equipment to mix it yourself it takes math and skill to make the colour yourself . im used to the old school enamel paints .
Good vid !
Just became a fan 🙏🏽
Switching paint lines on Monday to sherwin ultra 9k I hope to get some good results I know you sprayed it before . Hope everything goes well . That finish is breathtaking
Ultra 9 is a good system, good luck
Kandy man !!!!!👊💪 🎉
👊👊
Happy new year 😊!
Same to you!
That blue tape is my go to no issues!!!!
So far, I like it
My biggest tip.with staying in shape is just walk for atleast 150 minutes a week. You don't evan have to walk fast or kill yourself and you will see good results. And light weight training.
Thanks for the insight
Best paint available in the world.. I feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t get to use it!
GREAT LOKING SHOP, WISH YOU WERE IN CALIFORNIA
Happy new year man, good motivational speech and video to keep us going. Do you bake the spray card to dry before checking the color? For Sherwin paint line, red has the tendency to turns darker when fully dried. The reps recommend bake it well and clear it then check the color.
Thank you
I use only the yellow 3m tape. The blue tape i hated. It sticks better but if it is left on a little to long if leaves glue behind. And in the winter if you don't take it off when it is warm its a absolute nightmare to remove. Our sponsor is 3m so that's all we buy our shop.
3m yellow is my favorite. But for some reason they want us to use American
@kandyman5315 Yeah for me here in NJ where it gets cold it was a nightmare in the winter. Was not a fan of it at all. I hope you have better luck with it since it's warmer where you live.
That orange tape we use at my shop and I will say I had that problem a couple months ago but never happened again after a few rolls.
You can throw down some paint. Awesome job.
That blue tape works great until it gets hot then it leaves yellow glue behind
Thanks for the feedback
@kandyman5315 you are welcome anytime.
Papa jonhs. Its a good one😂😂
I just love how everytime i see a new video from you i can always relate and see myself in ur shoes i just really appreciate for u making this type of videos showing people hoping it can clean up all the bad reputation that the auto body shop trade has gotten due to low quality work keep it up much love🫡💯🔥🔥💥
Appreciate that 💯
I have had plenty of issues with orange and blue American tape . Since Covid it’s so inconsistent with adhesive residue and just not sticking . We had an entire case on orange with no adhesive on the tape lol . I don’t use American tape anymore
Supperrr 🎉🎉🎉
Let's get it 💪
Sorry...i was late...but you are the best❤
Thanks for the love! ❤️
Happy New Year🎉🎉 God bless have u ever try 3d rubbing compound and if so have u ever use it
I have not
Extra time and money on this one sweet 🤑
I’m in Canada I tried both the orange and the blue tape a few years ago and did not like them. I forget all the reasons. But I know it lifted and left overspray. We are now using the yellow Norton and I like it. It un masks much easier than the yellow 3M
Thanks for the feedback, I'll check out the Norton.
All I paint is a few old tractors. Really Its a mistake for me to pick up a spray gun. But Im amazed by your work.
Thank you 😊
What paint system you using and how expensive is it ?
Thank you for What you do!
And i just love your double paint booth!!!😊
Glasurit 100line it is top tier
Mannn
Love the 3m gun
Use that for everything
Then series 2 for clear standard 😂
Bom dia profissional isso sim é um nível de brilho 🌟 a peça já sai polida você está de parabéns falo do Rio de janeiro 🇧🇷 forte abraço 👍
Valeu 🇧🇷
Round is a shape!
Lol
Might the temperature there…I’m in California at crash champions same orange tape….I haven’t personally had any of adhesive problems yet
Thanks for the feedback 👍
Also as far as the tape you should try either the purple scotch 501 tape or 3m precision tape 1 or 2inch and yeah i know they're a bit more expensive but just wanted to share that with you
Thanks for the insight 👍
We just got rid of American tape the blue didn't like sticking and the orange just rolled of the center like a yoyo. So we switch to Q1 green and orange are good.
Thanks for the feedback 👍
@kandyman5315 thanks now like you said let get back in the gym
Like the work just have an odd ball question did basf discontinue the limco 4100?? Line??
Not sure exactly
Hey no more pizzas and you’ll be looking like me in no time ❤
😎😎👌
Out of curiosity what’s your goal in car to paint and how do u manage what jobs to do first before other ? And also what’s your process on sanding jambs start to finish (primerd )
Smaller jobs first big jobs last. For Jambs that are primed sand with 400 them scuff with red scuff.pad
if I can have a Make a Wish I would like Kandy Man to paint my 95 Civic and bring it back to original co condition. I’ve done all the mechanicals already and she drives like 1995 again.
Do you use adhesion promoter on plastic parts & what is the best brand to use??
Glasurit sealer has adhesion promoter in it .but i do use it on some other applications. Most paint brands work well but if you don't have a paint specific system I've used bulldog and it's done the trick
I’ve been having that problem With the 3/4 inch for a long time but never the inch and a half.
Thanks for the feedback 💪
having the same problems with 3/4inch orange tape, as well as 1.5in orange tape… blue 1.5in tape just doesn’t stick as well… yellow 1.5in 3m tape sticks better, and unravels quicker than the orange 1.5in tape 🙌🤙
Happy New Year!!! Thanks for the inspiration! Keep Moving Forward 🫡
Appreciate it!
Kandy Man...do you prefer 600 Grit with DA and soft pard for prepping the paint that is still be clear blended ? Thanks Jay
800
@@kandyman5315 peace and love man thanks for the kind reply ! dude...i'm so old haha..i learned to paint when Lacquer was wet sanded out and polished with 600 grit ! Back in the day oh my ! Peace - Jay
How you lay clear blows me away. I’ve been painting here and there for about a yr. Just got the iwata ws400 clear series 2. Still getting more peel than I’d like. Any tips or tricks. I’m kind of a late in life painter lol
Gun time👍
They should’ve sanded primed the erea before putting on the seem sealer
@samnaaman7978 the product we use is direct to metal 👍
@ how about the shiny paint under it or feather out the chips under it
You sure about that
Gray scuff is the recommended prep for that product
We tape off scuff in between tape and apply product then pull tape thanks for asking .👍
@ at least you should’ve feathered out the chips under the seam sealer and it’s red scared thank you for asking
Nice bodyshop that you ve man no no One like you Man good 💯 program I see you from Colombia I would like to work with you man
where is your shop located??? are you near the new york city area??
Florida
So why doesn't Tesla just use a 2 stage if it looks the same? Seems like that would cost way less to do
Good question
They don’t have all the colors dialed in I’ve noticed in the 5 months I’ve been spraying it. But not fighting as many colors as I thought I would.
Very true some colors are ok but some other ones are a nightmare, so sad we can keep the blend on the edges no more, almost have to panel paint every blend panel now .
Kandy Man, can a do-it yourself painter buy mixed paint like this Glasurit fom a shop like yours or a paint distributor? What’s the best paint available for a do-it yourself painter?
This is a water base system.so it works best in a controlled environment. Check out your local automotive paint store. And go with a quality solvent system 👌
Very nice which glasurit clear is that , 923-460 ?
109
Try out Norton yellow I switched from 3m and won’t look back
Will check it out
@ and is also cheaper
Did you get paid for the rear panel scratch?
👍
I hate the Orange tape, sticky for no reason but sticks to nothing. I'd just about prefer the old school tan stuff if we're gonna use el cheapo. I've always preferred the Green. If it's $7 more/roll and I've kept track maybe 30 rolls a month. Spending $8k-10k/month that's $210. Everything adds up but I hate stepping over a dollar to pick up a dime.
Whats your best clear gun? Luma vs dv1 vs ws400 series 2
All 3 are my top picks
@kandyman5315 if you had to choose only 1
Boa noite, você não usa mais a pistola da Ivata não é?
Yes i do
Hi Kandy Man, I just applied to a few jobs at Crash Champions in Bradenton and Sarasota. It would be great to connect with you and chat. What is the best way to reach out to you? Thx 👍
Reach out to my Instagram- @carkandyman if you aren't on Instagram you can contact me via email 352kandyman@gmail.com 👍
Ok awesome thank you very much! I will send you an email because I do not do instagram or have an account. The email subject will say Retro Revivals of Sarasota 👍. Talk to you soon.
Do you de-nib your base?
No 100line is a one visit application of the base
You can , just make sure to apply wet bed make sure is dry
3m yellow tape never look back iv used american and didn't care for it
Have you tried the 923-255 clear yet?
Not yet how does it compare to the 460 or the 109
@ in my opinion they all have their use cases and they are all great clears. I used to spray 365 and 460.
The 460 looks good and dries quick ish. But it does have a little pinch to it that bothers me some.
The 365 sprays super flat and dries so fast. It’s the best clear for jobs that need to leave the same day. It’s right there with the hold out of 460 maybe just a step below due to its speed.
I tried the 109 because I saw you like it. I definitely like that one as well. I feel like it has a perfect peal for side panels. But it also has a slight pinch and dries a lot slower than 460. I’m being picky but would say its hold out is a step above 460.
The 255 is a high solid clear and I would compare it to syrup lol. It’s the only clear I have seen that has no pinch and looks just incredible. It is a step above the 109. It dries slow like the 109 probably even a little slower.
That being said.. I run the 365 for anything I know is getting built same day. Otherwise I will use the 255. The only complaint with the 255 is that it’s so thick you really have to put in a little more effort I guess you would say to slick it out the way you want but it will definitely lay out. You I would definitely check out the 255 and 365 if you get the chance
@bodyshopsolutions695 well you have me sold on it will order it this week. Your assessment of the 460 and the 109 is on the money. Can't wait to try the 255 .does it use the same hardner as the 109 and 460
@ yes I use the 929-93 and then it calls for 352-45 reducer but I just use the 352-91 that goes with the 460 and 365. That’s what BASF said would be fine to swap
@bodyshopsolutions695 perfect thank you. Stay tuned lol

I thought that orange tape had some affelation with the owners of crash and they got it on the cheap and use it at every single shop? that is the worst tape in the history of tape.. KIDS if youre looking for a job just go to the website and apply.. You don't need anyone to get you in you just need a little experience or just contact your local shop. DUDE stop trying for the quick cash grab with the recommendation of a worker... Anyone can apply if they have an opening or just walk into the shop and ask if they need an apprentice. Crash pays if you can bring someone in so of course anyone would help so they get a quick 50 or 100 bucks.
Sorry for your negative response. I've been here helping people in this line of work for years prior to working for crash champions. Not sure you know my intentions my friend
@kandyman5315 I just said what they are.
Who is they are
@kandyman5315 im not saying you're not helping people with your channel. the push of crash is a little much and most people in the business know better of crash. Also the recommend a friend is on their page and anyone can be paid to bring someone in.
@theirishman088 This is my life .and I was purchased by them .and they have been great to me . And everyone at my shop, so yes i do talk highly of them and will continue. ✌️
How this didnt run. You hit it 3 times ruclips.net/video/VkDU6CpiHmo/видео.html
This paint is state of the art
