Thanks Howard. As a retired painter it was good for me to update my own info based on the information provided by your very educational videos.
Cheers mate
Fantastic content my friend!! Cheers from Canada!
Thanks for the visit, welcome to the channel
Howard great series so informative helping everyone from experience guys to guys just starting out thanks
Good to hear that its working
I just had this discussion/question with my local paint shop this week. I walked out of there shaking my head... so many dark areas. Anyhow low and behold H to the rescue.
Glad we could help
Hey Howard. Want to say thanks for this instructional stuff. I trained years ago on acrylics and had a long time out before coming back in a home restorer capacity. Moving into the new products has been a real challenge. I think I might, and only might, be starting to understand it! Proper minefield. Many thanks!
Glad to help, gotta keep us old blocks working
Hi Howard, she's coming along great. I especially love that satin clear work over those mechanical bits. That's something I'd definitely be doing.
I'd love to see you do a video on how you constructed your spray booth going through all the aspects that make it functional.
Would that be something you could do eventually ?
I have a space similar to what you have and would like to covert it to be able to do spray work in it so I keep the main shed clean.
Thanks and Regards
Tony
send me an email astilldesign@hotmail.com about it
looking good,please PPG give howard a sata vision air hood or at least give him a deal on one.the respirators he is using are good for bugger all especially with all the blow back
Thanks for the plug Doug, I do pretty good from my sponsors.
Valuable information in when, what, why and how to use certain products to achieve a quality job in the end. Thanks Howard for being thorough in the insights, questions and presentation. By the way the video production is excellent.
Thanks for the feedback, Louise is doing an awesome job.
Thanks for taking us along on the ride to yet another great lot of invaluable resource to help us mere amateurs and get best results for our buck not 3rd hand info from ya mates uncle whom is clueless and has been doing it all wrong from the start . We appreciate the time and effort you have made for us to help us along great viewing , Thanks H man .
Hi Howard, great episode. I've been really enjoying this series so far, and I've been learning so much, cheers John.
Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback
Love polyester,first used it 25 years ago ,the brand was Duck from Germany,Dulux were not producing anything like it back then.
Thanks for your feed back
Top video howard 👌 very good information
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks heaps H! I am learning so much from you and look forward to all your posts. I can only assume the you are in to cars as much as I am.
Yes mate, been doing it a long time
PPG Epoxy is legendary
Sure is
Thanks for posting this type of video Howard, it’s all starting to make more sense!
I had a chassis blasted and etched primed however I learnt this isn’t the way after sitting around, started rusting again quickly through the grey etch.
Thinking next time straight to epoxy?
Cheers mate, check the epoxy as well for timeframes without sealing.
brilliant info & well set out ...
thank you
Glad it was helpful!
this is gold. more good info to digest.
Thanks, good to hear
Great job mate 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
What about PPG's Vibrance line VB2050 DTM-Epoxy high build?
They sell it in the states and used in California so it fits "National Rule".
We don't have that option here is Australia.
@@AstillDesign It is beyond belief that products sold in Canada, USA or Australia are not available to each other. Spending 4 decades fixing vehicles, mostly dealers, I end my career teaching, holding 4hr tech seminars and defective parts returned to distributors for ACDelco, the cause is each government. Why? It is up to manufacturers to provide technical, documents, product proof of performance and a bus load of lawyers. No wonder the price of simple things keep going up in price. You are in business to make a living while paying for 9 different insurance policies, permits, equipment, etc. Like an alignment machine! It is out of date two weeks after you train a tech & learn how to use it.
God bless and have a lucky one!
Any gloss reduced work I've done over the years I swear by PPG 579 Caprithane. Can be full gloss also taken down to a shade under 10% gloss level which is basically Matt. It's a binder system already as opposed to adding a Matting agent after the fact. Also DNA I must admit have a great Matt clear coat. Alas very expensive but beautiful to spray.
Thanks for the feedback I will check it out
Very nice show to watch
Thanks mate
Very informative video thanks mate. Just wondering if you have any tips on painting in my back yard?
Not sure from what view point. We will be covering air supply, more on spray guns plus masking etc.
@@AstillDesign temperature would be the main thing. Do you think it's a good idea to hose the ground first?
Hi, over 22deg and hosing down is a good idea
@AstillDesign thanks mate really appreciate your advice
Hey Howard, is your spray booth home made or purchased. It looks like it has great suction. The booth doesn't seem to get overwhelmed with fumes/vapour. May e you could do a walk around the booth and how its put together if its home made. Loving the videos.
Hey mate, yes it is a DIY booth, I'll see what I can do about showing the design
Thank you
You're welcome
love the videos very helpful why did you choose prime base satin clear and not prime commercial vehicle 2k satin black both have same finish
Good question, Just using what I know. So many products to choose from
I have to say for all my years of painting part time and I thought. Had some idea what I was doing, I think I have just been lucky
I have been using ppg for many years now and always read the data sheets before I start mainly just to remind myself what to do
From this you can tell I don’t paint so much these days but it is all I really want to do
I only have one spray gun which was from Repco and was a Christmas present from my daughter and son in law about 5 years ago
I have no idea what the jet size is
Generally I strip back to bare metal and then etch prime then epoxy prime over that which I sand and then I may prime again and sand and then. I will do the wet on wet prime base and clear
I wish I could tell you what series the paint is but I can’t and it’s down in the shed and I’m up in the house and it’s not ten degrees outside
I will have to bring up the data sheets so for the next video I can see if it is similar to what you are using
Cheers Howard
Your not on your own, back in the early days I only had the one gun. The process has been finetuned to a point where the labour saving is the focus so better tools and products to get the same results with less hours. Its good that you are keen to learn, Cheers H
Hi love the content. I have a question regarding gun psi. On some paint tech sheets it states a gun pressure to be used when spraying. Should that be the psi or should I use the psi that the guns tech sheet suggests?
I would use the paint tech sheet
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge. I want to ask is there 1 spray gun that will do it all? from epoxy primer, high fill primer, base coat and clear coat? thank you.
You can have one gun with 2 nozzle sets. a 1.4mm for base and clear coat plus a 1.8mm nozzle set for primers epoxy etc.
@@AstillDesign what gun would you recommend for someone spraying at home? Thank you
If your looking at a quaility gun then a good mid range all rounder is the SATA 1500 BRP sol 1.3mm, get a 2mm nozzle set and that will do everything you need from hibuild to Clear. If you have the budget get a primer gun Satajet 100 B RP Primer Gun 2.0mm and a SATA 1500 or go all the way to a digital Satajet X 5500 RP Digital 1.3mm Cheers H
@@AstillDesign thank you
May seem to be a silly question, but metho water is that metholated spirits with water mixed together?
Yes mate, 50/50 metholated sprirt and distilled water. Don't use tap water!!
Crikey your paint benches clean mine don’t look like that😮
Gave it a birthday for the series and the booth as well.
Hi Howard, just curious why the chassis isn't going to be powder coated? I'm assuming paint is more cost effective?
No real preference, I have never used powder coat. Probably because I do my own paint.
Also powder coating is not as durable as people think.
Thanks Howard. What's the name of the orange straps you're hanging parts with and where do you get them? I'm sick of trying to use wire and it flicks around trying to take my eye out!
they are hanging strapes used in the mining industry eliteie.com.au/mining-consumables/hangers-and-straps/
It's the way of spraying a Epoxy primer over a etch primer recommended by a labor guy?or just from seller to customer?
We are not using an etch primer on this job
@@AstillDesign general about using etch primer under epoxy not on your personal
Is it possible to paint a base colour directly over an epoxy primer? I’m doing hanging panels and the under side of the bonnet and boot don’t need any filler work so could in theory go to paint stage now? Or do they need a thin primer and scuff back?
You need to prime. Use a wet on wet primer under the colour. I will be using DP621 PrimaGUARD. data sheet is on astilldesign.com
I was about to ask this question... Perfect! w.o.w over epoxy and paint...
I've been painting for over 20 years , and the different primers , epoxy etc still get confusing! 😅 .
I know right, and keeps changing
Great video Howard im enjoying the tech stuff
That car would have been perfect with a roadster shop chassis powder coated new brake lines just bolted in rack opinion 4-link rear end
Plus a whole lot more Dollars
normally i say you over do it.... but cmon man.... how lazy are you these days... you didnt even seperate the laves of that spring set and spray inbetween them all??? un believable, ide never get you to do my resto. 🤣🤣 joking mate.
Just a street car!!😂😂
