Thank you for clearing out the mixing additives. Some people on here get to caught up on showing work but not focusing on the fundamentals ‼️ you covered everything perfectly.
I appreciate this video so much man. I've been an auto tech for years and, now I'm taking on fixing a deer incident on my own car. I have never done body work or mixed paint before and this helped me so much.
Teaching is a science and you my friend, have it down to a tee. I am a hardcore diagnostician. Done everything from electrical, mechanical, engine swaps, AC you name it. I purchased a vehicle from an auction and did everything else but the bodywork. I was a bit antsy until I watched your video. Thanks and Happy 4th!!!
Very good, simple to follow, and informational. I bought 3 paint products (base paint, pearl paint and some medium reducer) to paint a small area on my wife's SUV. The paint vendor was very vague about what to mix and how much. You video made it all very easy to understand, and why the ratio are what they are. Thank you very much!
Awesome Video, I was so confused about this part, thank you for shedding some light for me. Can you please do one on sealer and epoxy. the way you explain makes it easy to comprehend. Thank you in advance
Have been repairing/spraying for 30 odd years and always used a measure stick, then used the drip test ! your vid makes it all clear now what I should have done !!! thanks
OMG THX YOU THX U THX U!! I’ve watched so many Videos and you literally answered my question in the first product.. Base Coat!!! Ughhhh I’m in Love, Brilliant.. Thank you so very much❤️❤️
THanks that was helpful. We were trying to work out the Wanda mixing stick which has slightly different markings. We needed to make the paint to 4 :1:10%
Thank you so much for this teaching video. Your details were very much appreciated. Asking folks at the paint store you will not always get the correct guidance I learned a lot. Carry On Sir!
Thank you so much I’ve recently got a new job and they have me painting wasn’t in the job description but I really enjoy it so much so that I bought a project car that I’m going to try paint myself always struggled with the mixing side of things ended up too strong or too thick but you’ve just explained everything so perfectly I understand it all so very much now and it’s because of you thank you so much !!!!!
Thanks very much for the well organized video; everything is just perfect about this excellent lesson. Job Well Done! I have learned a lot, thanks Bro.
awesome video thaanks , i have a question tho about primers if im having a bare metal piece i need to use epoxy primer or self etching primer , and put over them 2k primer ? and how a bout a non bare metal piece what should i use before base coat ? thanks again
Depending , you can use either epoxy or self etch to bare metal. With some epoxy primers you can go straight to Basecoat, but there is a window to be able to do that, after that window it must be sanded Before applying Basecoat. High build primer can be used for Body panels that had body work done. If the panel is nice and flat with no dents, you could even use a sealer before applying Basecoat or sand and apply Basecoat right on top of the original paint as long as the paint wasn’t peeling .again depends on surface and body work needed.
Thank u I appreciate you taking time away from your personal life. I took a auto introduction class 20 years ago & used that trade for few years in hobby life but then had to get a McDonald's job bc as a young convicted felon was all I could get. Now in my mid 40s still not doing financially well so I am buying a project & don't remember how to paint. Back then there was no RUclips university.
15+ years ago I used to do on site auto body. Was mostly bumpers for dealerships so used cars looked less banged up for sales. We would custom mix the paint for each vehicle by looking up the paint code and entering it into an app on a blackberry. The app would give us all the mix ratios for each paint and metal flake by weight starting with the most used in production and then other mixes that were used during that year. I had made an entire rack to separate out the colors and flakes by their number. Does anyone know what the app was or one like that? I have been curious about doing some custom stuff in my spare time since I miss doing it but not enough for a full-time job
@@Mechaniclyfe well that's a start! Thank you! I am sure that everything out there will be company specific so that you stick with their mixes. Though through time I am sure you could custom mix as you like. But to match an existing it would probably be best to follow that companies recipe

Thank you the most useful video on explaining this for a newbie I watched Eastwoods video wasn't nearly as helpful keep up the great work.

The only one I have used is from glasurit , tells you the certain measurement for paint and toners etc, but it’s glasurit specific
@@Mechaniclyfe well that's a start! Thank you! I am sure that everything out there will be company specific so that you stick with their mixes. Though through time I am sure you could custom mix as you like. But to match an existing it would probably be best to follow that companies recipe
thank you so much
No worries
thank you so much.
No worries
Helpfull video good job man.
Thank you glad it helped
@@Mechaniclyfe
What I like is your humility.
Lack of miserliness
@@Mechaniclyfe
I speak right.
@@Mechaniclyfe
Good luck for you.
great video just wonding so after clear coat you do the single stage or was that just for somthing else
Single stage is all in one paint including gloss , opposed to Clearcoat and BASECOAT where it’s a two step process , hope that clears any confusion.
Nice video man ithink I've got a clear explanation about mixing. One question on single stage,is it applied after clear coat?
Single stage is an all in one process essentially it’s like base and clearcoat sprayed at the same time
