I actually paint cars, quick tip after a few days wet sand (800grit) the 2k clear even and then put a thin coat of 2k clear over the car, the results will give you a professional look.
You might be able to help me. My car had a metallic paint and I got the paint mixed at a paint shop that supplies Toyota and such. The paint on the hood however came out a little dark and does not match the rest of the car. I did 4 coats with 2 cans of base. I only did the 4th coat to finish out the can. In retrospect, it wasn’t a bad idea. I heard metallic paint looks darker the more coats you have. Is this true? Also I heard metallic paint sinks. Any help with this would be great. And I used a 1k spray max clear coat and it is not shiny at all. Was only able to get the hood with 2 coats with 1 can.
You can put 2k clear over rustoleum? It is compatible ?
@@ceoliljalen175 what's your TikTok
@@teenytinytoons bro it's hard to match a Catalina blue Camry
@@Stephen-vk3ej yes
Painted 3 cars with spray cans now. Never actually tried a gun before 😂 looks great man
I don’t like the gun as much believe it or not. Sometimes the gun lays better on certain colors but mostly I prefer the can route
Yes I love that blue metallic blue you did a great job
Nice. Would be cool if you painted the valve cover to match.
Great videos yall! Kinda looks close to the Subaru World Rally Blue! Great Job! I'm about to do this to my car!
That's a hard color to paint and it looks really good after a good wet sand n buff u probably won't be able to tell it's from a can
How many quarts of raptor did it take?
I love your channel. I have a question(s):
Have you ever used auto paint such as UreChem or PPG etc in your electric gun?
How much paint is needed just to paint a good that has 3 stage paint? (Using paint gun like the Wagner moto)..please share your thoughts
intro ends and video begins @4:10
Nice job man
Not throwing any shade but that door molding gunmetal does not match the wheels, and you should spray a wetter coat of clear because it doesn’t look like orange peel just not enough clear.
Great job

As much as you spent on the rattle cans, and 2K cans you could have bought automotive paint and a gun and got 10X better results.
Show me where you can get a gallon of metallic blue WITH hardener and reducer for under 100 bucks.... I'll put money on you can't. The cheapest I was able to find was TCP global restoration shop (the cheap shit) urethane gallon was over 400 bucks.
@@mustangdemon87 He has over $200 in just clearcoat cans alone. Those Turbo cans are almost $20 each. Already at $260 and have not even got to paint.
@Vanilla Ice a gallon of clear coat with hardener and reducer would be an additional 200 bucks so now your around 400 to 500 bucks. Still way cheaper to do cans buddy.
He used 20 cans of blue at $6 each. 8 cans of 2k clear at $20 each. 4 cans of primer at 10 each. (Prices pulled from google) that’s $320 plus tax on just spray cans. Then what ever miscellaneous materials he needed. Probably around $400 dollars total and 2 days of sweat equity. Not bad for a full DIY paint job. I guess for a little more he could’ve bought a paint gun, some “real” paint and clear but he would still need to buy or borrow a compressor.
@Just my opinion by also going larger with a "real spray gun" you also increase the over spray 10 fold. Making it much much harder to get it to lay flat with proper coverage without having the garage full of over spray. Considering the cheapest I could find these blue was thru TCP global and a kit with clear runs about 400 bucks. Yes you would get a much thicker finish as well as more chip resistance but the cost factor is usually too much with the added work of mixing the whole can prior to starting and having to get your gun set up properly.
Personal opinion here:
I think you could have applied clear with a spraygun and got much better results
2 coats might not be enough to wet sand
that clear , should have done 3 coats.
The amount spent on 2k clear in a can is pretty much the same or more than a gallon of 2k clear from amazon
Try doing a control coat next time with those cans to get your metallic from looking blotchy
I’ve done a combination of base sprayed with spray can and clear with a spray gun and achieved damn near body shop quality paint jobs. I think these tips could help you improve your spray can paint jobs even further. Cheers 🍻
Gallon of 2k clear is cheaper than those $20 cans and is more manageable. I did the same color with rattle can (over 20 cans) with 2k clear by finish 1 with a harbor freight turbine. The finish is on my youtube. I will never rattle can a car ever again lol. It came out great though.
See the answer for this is yes and no. Let me explain what I mean.. my small 8 gallon compressor with my wetta 5000 spray gun would have had just as much orange peel due to low tank size and the cfm also you have to make 110% sure each time you mix clear it’s mixture is perfect and im a screw up so I would screw the mixture up (ask me how I know) lol I’m better with can than a gun but I have done both methods before. Either way the results always look decent in the end.
Moore Motorsports James Dguy I have a video on mixing paint, it’s not that hard especially with mixing cups or mixing stick , but I see your point with a spray gun with low cfm however, a more even application of clear and less dry spots I think could have benefited you in the end result. Regardless I applaud your talent with your spraycans, it’s not an easy thing to do.
This is cool, but it’s just a waste of $ to use 30+ spray cans. Just get a gallon of cheap 2k clear, some base coat (you can use Rustoleum if you insist), and a $15 harbor freight HVLP gun. You’ll save money and have better results. Work smarter not harder, but you do have good tips and do good work 👍🏻
Agree, spray is good for small repairs
The Rustoleum cans say do not apply to surfaces that can reach 200 F. The hood over the engine can easily reach over 200 F in the summer (especially in Texas). Have you had any problems with the paint since applying it? My biggest concern is that the paint might catch on fire if it goes over 200 F. Thanks.
Turned out great, not that i had any doubts.
I had doubts lol
nice color
Moore spray painting - yeah Buddy 👍
Man ! there are a bunch of professional paint and body people in the comments... Fuck all these people trying to bash on this guy! This dude is having fun with raddle cans.. I think that he is just showing people that if your car is older and the clear coat is peeling off and you don't wanna spend $2000 on a professional paint job on a $900 car that you could spray it yourself and get decent results with spray cans.. Is it the right way? no not by the books but I bet I will try to paint my $500.00 civic before someone charges me $1500- $3000 for a basic paint job. I've seen WAY worse paint jobs than this and it was a "professional paint shop" that did it..
Exactly. I have a farm truck and I just want it make it look decent I don't care about professional results.
Please do a video of you wet sanding and buffing out this paint job. I would love to see it, if it’s possible. The car looks so good in that metallic blue. Probably my favorite paint job so far. Great job 👍
Thats a horrific finish. You might aswell have used a paint brushed.
Do you buff the base color coat or the clear coat? Or do you buff them both? I am doing the same thing trying to save money work but i really want it to come out right.
To be honest a decent paint roller dipped in 2k clear coat would probably have similar finish, be cheaper and would be wayy thicker layer than this to wet sand (i kinda want to see someone do that now lol)
Hey man I live in temple I have already painted my bumper on my 05 mustang and it didn’t really turn out the way I wanted. I was wondering if you would like to give it a shot at the whole car. Could make some good content for your channel and I would pay for supplies. Just let me know. You do some good work man keep it up👍🏼
I’m not doing it full time for people I’m just taking on smaller projects. He is active in the military and we worked something out and felt I needed to help do my part. I’m always open to doing work just right now I’m backed up
@@JamesDguy no problem, I know how much work it is and I’ve been doing all the sanding and body work that needs to be done. Just thought I would see what you thought on the subject. And like I said I’m in Temple so if you ever need a new video let me know michaelpetzold12@gmail.com
Very nice. I have been taking some of your tip, tricks and ideas and morphing them with mine. I always like bouncing ideas around to get "that" look that works for me. Thanks for the hard work. I just got done with some accent paint on black raptor Cobalt aka Project Defiant. Still have lots to finish but coming along as planned. Once again thanks for the ideas and how too's
I used to spray paint cars also with 2k spray cans n got good results, trust me once u buy urself a compressor and a descent spray gun u won’t ever wana rattle can a car again! Thumbs up for the can work tho!
He has sprayed 2k clear that way before on his orange car. Before it was orange it was grey and he sprayed 2k clear with a pearl over it. Some people prefer different methods.
@@sinformant yeah I know , he used a cheap spray gun on that car also when he sprayed the at, I was just saying he’ll save himself a lot of work once he starts spraying with better tools
@@eddiearre I have a wetta 5000 gun just don’t use it lol
You decided to do PDR after painting the whole car????? You realize the logic behind that decision is asinine I hope.
You seem to like to paint cars why not just invest in a compressor a decent iwata and start spraying them professionally?
Even harbor freight tools will do the job if you have the skills
Ok serious question... If you already had a spray gun and compressor what would the cost difference be between buying quarts/gallons of paint and doing it yourself and this can method?
The 2K clear would have been like $50-60 but the metallic blue would have been way more out of a gun. Plus primer and I would have had to buy a bigger compressor because my wetta 5000 gun don’t do well with my small 8gallon compressor
@@JamesDguy What about using a small gun to shoot the clear on the bumpers, so you could add a flexing agent?
*I smell the paint thru my iPhone📱😅🫧🫨*
I did the same thing on my RX-7 FC. Nothing beats a good paint job though. Also, shoot the clear after 1 hour or so. Don't do it immediately. It won't be as reflective.
Love all these experts giving advice and opinions! 😂 the car looks 100 times better than it did and all that matters is that he is happy with it
Honestly your rattle can job is better then what I managed with a proper gun. Was my first time though I fucked up big time gotta re-sand everything
Love spray painting cars. My Infiniti has a 2 tone black and blue rustoleum high performance enamal job on it now, gonna redo it in this over the summer. Some think spray paint is ricey but considering maaco is charging over $3000 and i don't want a wrap like every other hood trash car i see i think spray paint is a good option. That clear coat ain't cheap though. For those who think it turned out like shit I've seen and done some shitty spray jobs and thats not bad at all. You want perfect go find a custom painter and give him $8k and call it a day.
Your vids make me feel comfortable enough to spraypaint my own car. She's pretty beaten up on the exterior. Need to find a garage that I can borrow for a couple of days....
Great job. You inspired me to paint my dodge ram a couple months ago. I will say for my first big spray paint job turned out pretty good using your method. Keep up the great work!
I dig the idea but the cost is prohibitive vs conventional gun applied paint IMO
After 2 years how is this paint job holding up??
Keep it up buddy, nice work and thanks for the video shout out featuring my hard work as well. To all the haters throwing shade by judging or critique our craft and talent I stand by my buddy James Dguy. Creating a beautiful car aesthetic on a limited budget Is something you can do with determination and a vision of success regardless of your wallet share. I at least have the balls to show my video results to everyone, supporting Moore Motorsports and being dedicated to empowering all instead of bringing down an artist like James Dguy. Haters you can suck it, James keep on sharing your amazing results with videos like this! Allen
Thanks for the video btw! You did a great job
I watched this video 3 times and I'm highly impressed with the outcome james 👍 and have to say look at all the like compared to the dislikes I'm sure alot of people agree with me
Using all those cans is extremely cost prohibitive versus a gun and compressor.
The orange peel is awful.
The savings alone would put you in possession of a decent gun and compressor.
@@victoreous626 Yeah when I added up the cost from my local hardware store to do a 4 door station wagon using cans with 1 prime coat, 2 base coats and 2 clear, I was looking at around 900 nzd. Not even including sand paper, masking tape, body filler etc.
For that same price I could easily get a decent gun, compressor, and some nice automotive paint. Then be in a position to do as many paint jobs as I need in the future, only having to worry about the cost of consumables.
I sprayed my 93 sc400 this same color. Completely agree with you, it’s a tough one to figure out but the job you did looks impeccable. Another quality content filled upload, thank you 🙏🏻
That paint job is Amazing and makes me want to keep my 2000 Civic Hatch and Paint it bright yellow like the color of the 2019 Si Coupes. You all are certified savages. Keep up the awesome content which is very informative.
Paint it yellow man!!
Sand and polish it for a nice result. Awesome video
This color is super hard to spray. I did the same and it took over 20 cans with my ek hatch. Then I did finish 1 clear coat over the top with a hvlp turbine sprayer. Video on my profile of the finish. It actually came out great. But I'd never ever spray a metallic out the can ever again. It's extremely difficult to keep a constant flow on the metallic.
Yes exactly!!
I was thinking about painting my toyota camry. I was thinking about doing black. But I heard black is hard to paint on large scales. I'm pretty experienced with spraycans on small projects.
Black seems to be easier to shoot than this metallic was. Temperature is key though. The cooler it is the nicer the black lays down for me
Great job james.thats one of my favorite colors...I sure like you to repaint my 06 accord..it's dark mettilc grey..I do live in the Houston area..I think I would trust you more then someone else
This would be great for my work truck. I think once the weather starts cooling off I’m going to try this with the black and then do a couple cans of clearcoat over it and then wet sand it. Those turbo cans are nice for the money. People seem to forget the purpose of this video. Not everyone wants a $3000 paint job. Some people just want a more presentable looking car to drive around. One decent color is better than a bunch of rust and faded paint by far.
ay man but its 100x better than shitty warn paint!
how many walmarts did you have to visit to find that many cans of paint. usually when I look only 1 or 2 cans each color.
Hit up multiple places
LOL!!!
Bruh use a pistol grip attachment it'll help your index finger. BUT EXCELLENT WORK
Really nice job!!!! What was the name or paint number on the gun metal metallic? I want to paint my car that color. Can you order boxes of paint instead of going from store to store for the color paint?
You can order them online
Cobalt Blue.
@@elsey1976 I dont want the car color I want the trim color.
damn it would be alot cheaper to buy a urethane base/2k clear kit off ebay($200)& use a HVLP spray gun... i bought a kit with 1.5 gallons of silver metallic(when mixed with reducer included, & 1.25 gallons of clear, i painted the whole car & only used half the paint,,,, also the best tip is to cover whole car with a grey sealer or primer so the whole car is one uniform color that way you will use alot less base paint & will not see primer/repair transitions spots beneath paint,,, but still your car turned out good,, keep doing what your doing practice & keep improving, dont let the haters get to you bro, man you should have seen my first car i had at 17, 95 civic hatch,, grey primer patches every where, one red door one blue hahhaa, but i only bought it for $400, used it for offroad, just a real piece of shit,, smashed it up so many times
At this point he can probably do pullups with his spray fingers lol
I know this is a rattle job, but if you already have a compressor and get the cheap harbor freight $36 touch-up spray gun....it works miracles and saves money for the clear! The rustoleum metallic is infinitely easier to spray consistently than mixing it in clear and then spraying, at least for me. You can buy 2k clear by the 5 quarts for about $75 and it goes a long way! Shooting with the gun uses about 50cc's (about 1.5oz's) of clear for two heavy passes on a fender. For non-metallic paint it is much cheaper and easier to spray rustoleum quarts using a gun (2 spray cans equals about 8ozs mixed in a gun). I had already painted my base coat on my bass boat and ran across this metallic paint, a complete game changer!
most people won't have a compressor. or not a good enough compressor with the CFM for a paint job. heck, most people with a garage will not do this job because it can make a mess. I wouldn't. me personally I would setup a small tent and do it outside and I would use a compressor, rent one if I have to.
If you are going to this much trouble, you should have at least fixed the dings on the fender etc. A little bondo would have made it even better. Prep is everything
They'll do PDR on the fender no need for bondo
Im 15 and buying a 800 honda accord hopefully i can re paint it light blue to make it look fire
You did all that work but didn't fill the small dents, crazy
ikr would have taken 10 mins
I swear that's like every video on RUclips. Like um....ok...you just painting over dents with 300$ of product. Ok....
He doesn’t have to do it f he doesn’t effin feel like it 😂😂🤣
@@carlman7372 I mean you can't be mad when people say it looks clapped out. 🤧 it does. It shows lack of effort.
Hey man great job I had an ek sedan I did the same color it took 18 cans for me and I only needed four cans of the clear for the whole car. I also sprayed some clear on the wing and a repair on the door the vids in my bio but for real good job bro
Hello Sir I would Recommend you buy A1 Rust-O-Dapt Adapters and Art Primo Male Fan Caps.They give a Much larger Fan Spray Pattern Similar to Spray Guns.They Are very cheap online and easy to Clean.It make painting with Rustoleum Cans 10x easier and Better Looking.Worth a Look at
Very good. 2000 grit wet sand n buff 👍🏻
Another great video! You're truly amazing at what you do!
Love your work. How long do you let the primer cure before applying your paint?
20 cans 🤯🤯 your fingers don't hurts???
No my finger don’t hurt. It’s forearm muscle that gets fatigued but even that don’t affect me anymore lol
It took 20 cans when I did my maxima, and it made my forearms hurt. My fingers were fine.
Love the work man just that I can't get the paints u get where I live I'm in the Caribbean
How long will these paint last on the car, will it fade throughout time
With the 2K it last a long time. It’s the same kinda clear that gets shot out of the gun just in a can for easy spraying convenience
really not very good actually
Sweet! Been looking forward to seeing you do this color ever since the fender vid
Great job buddy looks good. Can I make a suggestion when spraying with rattle can try to go in longer strokes (pause) gives a better result. Also if you had wet sanded the metallic before 2k clear there would have been less orange peel. But my opinion only you still did a phenomenal job with rattle can. Car looks awesome. 👍✌
You can't wet sand metallic, it will get splotchy as you cut through the color coat into the metal flakes (they're little solid flakes of mica in the paint), the more you cut the lighter colored it will look as you expose more and more metal flake on the surface, but it will never look even.
Someone who knows prices on automotive paint let me know I'm guestimating about $340 in paint cans how much would it cost if you bought automotive paint and 2k clear to paint this car with a auto paint sprayer???
About the same maybe a little more but not a major difference In price
Could’ve single staged that for cheaper and laid down nicer
Looks awesome! How did u have not any problems with overspray and stripes
Temperature being cooler helps you keep the panel wet longer which allows for less stripes and doing multiple coats helps too.
Always check out your work and get a lot of ideas from it especially when it comes to painting..thanks a lot bro..
Hi. Great Video. What was the Final Cost to Paint it?
Bro, that looks KILLER. When I did my test fender, the paint showed a purple pearl. Did you see that in this job? Man, you are a great inspiration to us DIY guys.
Just needs a wet sand - polish - wax and then it'll look good !
I'm pretty sure you love projects like this there for I'm pretty sure you'll do it again lol
Brother I've always had trouble with the metallic blue it never fails the spay nozzle is a bad design for it.
That sure is a lot of overspray in that clear coat.
So Ik you work with rustoleum have you tired the color shift or anything if not I think it would be a cool video to see how it looks and holds up
I have a '99 Ford Contour, great little car that just won't die, needs paint badly but no $$$. Watched several of your videos and got the courage up to do just the spoiler/fin thing on the trunk the other day. Sanded, primed, painted, clear coated. Used all Rustoleum products. Was satisfied with everything but the actual paint itself. It was a silver metallic called Titanium Silver in the can that has the trigger instead of the button your depress like a regular can of spray paint. Wont use the trigger can again, came out of the can terrible. Anyway, long story short, the color was about a 90% match to the original color of the car, and so the spoiler/fin came out pretty good. 100% better than it did look. I will probably buy all the paint, primer and clear coat at one time, and then do a section at a time. I'm a 60 year old granny type, so auto paint is new to me. Really looking forward to making my old hooptie look better. Thank you for your videos, they're really great! You're insipring more people than you think!
N95 mask isn’t worth shit around that 2k clear!! Great job, as usual. (Not sarcasm)
Lol no it's not
Keep up the wonderful job bro,u teach me alot.👍
I would've taken time to hammer the dings out, I think the peel will disappear when he cuts and buffs it, just all those dings could've been dealt with u went through all the trouble to disassemble the car, tap out those dings and it would look 50% better
i like your car
Are you related to Earl Scheib?
Man's got the strongest index fingers in the south
For real though I couldn't imagine doing a whole car with spray cans just because of how sore you'd be for like a week after that
man you know it ! I raddle canned a 4 door Da integra one time and I was having to swap fingers when they started going numb and that caused my paint job to look like shit because everytime I moved to another finger it would mess me up and throw my spray pattern off.
As usual awesome job brother. Keep up the good work! U inspire me brother
WOW amazing job, looking for the wet sanding video now.
What hood vent is that ? I want on my civic
He made them himself
Did u sand primer?? If so how long do I let primer dry??
Just buy an hvlp turbine or a spray gun and a compressor
I have a spray gun lol 😂
I’ve been watching you other videos and giving me all the encouragement to work on my SUV’s roof de-oxidized paint. Thanks brah!
Turned out sweet looking brother 🍻🍀👌💪
Actually the color it was before the metallic blue look better, that purple, was attractive, but good paint job it looks professional,
When you are wetsandind is it okay to use a palm sander?
If using a palm sander while wet sanding it could short it out if it’s not a air sander. I prefer a air sander and wet sanding than anything else.
@@JamesDguy ooh okay, I feel like that was kinda obvious lmao I should have known. Another question I can't find rust-oleum protective enamel anywhere near me. I've use them before but the place I got it from doesn't sell it anymore. Is rust-oleum 2x paint good?
I'd love to do that to mine--- I've painted cars before-- in booth-- but I have nowhere to work but OUTSIDE.. unfortunately... in the country too-- :) IDEAS????
No wonder my dad was gone that whole time 😂
Ye Lol freaking hours.
@@tyuigkn5366 2 days of work! Lol
Moore Motorsports James Dguy Well thats even Longer! XD
Let me ask you did you use only 7 cans of clear coat if so why did you use so many base coat cans and so few clear coat cans? 20 cans of base coat sounds like way too many. Or rather, 7 cans of clear coat doesn't sound like enough. How many coats of clear coat and is it enough to sand it?
The metallic colors don't cover as well, they're sort of transparent.
when im spraying anything laying down the cans always drip on it :(
I only had that issue if my finger was too far past the button. Try pulling your finger back further. If that don’t work wipe your can tip frequently.
Oh man. You have to do a video of y’all wet sanding. Man it will look amazing!!
