    Howard, one of the best aspects of your videos is the advice on using combinations of products and the results you can expect. For the consumer.
    It's great that you're staying with PPG because it's a great product. Pity, they're not doing the same. Go well at Summernats

    Where PPG have stepped off Mirka should jump on, you are a great ambassador for both! Thanks for this year, you've upped the standard of my Torana project significantly with the education and understanding these videos have provided.
    Have a great Chrissie and New Years!!!!

    Howard,
    One thing I found when using the Ute liner on my XY if I used it in the ready to go one litre tin for the Shultz gun, I was loosing some product, as the tin gets warm, and makes it react quicker, I ended up using it in a plastic container slowed the reaction down of the mixed product, especially in summer, love your work mate. 👍😎

    Everyone always hears about how good, but how pricey PPG is. Howard constantly bridges the knowledge gap for the average car enthusiast in not just how good PPG products are, but what range of PPG products there are and the reasons why certain PPG products are used in each part of the automotive restoration process, how they are used and the quality results that can be achieved.
    Show me another social media creator that sets such high standards in the automotive industry, that promotes a companies products and especially in a very detailed manner over the long term.

    You've done an awesome job as always. Its a shame PPG haven't continued with the sponsorship. I personally think that with your skills and expertise, this is a great way to promote their product, bu business decisions are a reality unfotunately and for me you've done an awesome job at showing how great the products are with this build that is very personal. I know the end product will be absolutely phenomenal, and even though you say 'not show car standard', to me, in my eyes it already is. 27:20

    It's starting to look bloody nice. I was thinking before, were you looking at recreating a Retro Sundowner?. I remember seeing these running around (not as many Holden's Sandman admittedly). I was wrapped that Ford got in on the same marketing ploy but with the porthole style bubble windows. Have a great festive season to you, family and your employee's.

    I'd rather paint my next car in house paint than use ppg now.
