I painted my first full car three years ago. Watched three videos on RUclips and went to work. Turned out amazing! Black base, candy root beer brown pearl, three coats of clear. Cheap harbor freight gun. Was fun.
Just wanted to let you know I was in nursing home for one year and now I am in assisted living because of COVID but I am doing much better. You are the only person I have sent a message to and you replied. I will watch all your videos and enjoy watching you grow, thanks for making me smile!!! 😊
RESPECT!!! From A to Z this video has just about every single detail anybody that doesn’t know how to paint but is somewhat mechanically inclined and want to learn… how to get the complete job done! I’ve watched hundreds of videos, I work in collision repair, and I also go to college to know verbatim every single step and process of the paint auto repair industry and this video is gold!
Your crazy with it bro I’m getting ready to prep my obs I bought can you make a video on how you prep your jobs you do to primer stage I saw your other videos on how you prep your previous jobs to get it to primer stage
Do you ever want to start teaching how to rap cars? I love the content and would be glad to see if you experiment with other forms of body/cosmetic work. love the videos dawg its fun to learn when its explained why and what is needed!
Good video, truck looks great. So, what you describe as a drop coat isn’t a drop coat, we call that a flow coat, & yes we don’t do at bodyshop cause one factory dosent, 2- that cost more money and neither the customer or insurance won’t pay for that. How ever, yes customer shops do it for a show car finish, some times More than once. A drop coat isn’t what you do when spray a metallic color to get the metallic orientation to lay down right, only when needed, some guys do it reguardless. You did a great job once again, & made it look easy. 👍
For the last reason part of the video, any reason why you chose to use 400 grit instead of less aggresive sandpaper such as 600-800 before applying 2 coats of clear? Just wondering as I am in a process of repainting my car with black base and mid coat ( yamagata red pearl). Thank you for your help and looking forward to learn more from your channel!
Thank you bro 🤙Th reason I used 400 grid is because that’s what the technical data sheet calls for. I always refer to that and rarely do things different.
@@donproctor4480thank you. I just got confused because he used 400 grit again to reapply 2 more coats of clear but he did mentioned to be careful burning through the paint and also to remove the orange peel before applying the clear again.
After you sand the clear and respray the last 2 coats of clear, do you keep a wet edge on both of the clear resprays? Or one light coat and then second spray with wet edge?
@@nextcoat ok thanks man great video as well my painter flaked on me so I’ve been binge watching your videos to tackle my obs, hopefully mine comes out anywhere near as good as yours, cheers bro.
@nextcoat word, I been working on a 01 Silverado for about a year and had to replace rusted corners/rockers and the truck is beat to hell so I been learning a long the way. Got it all the way to the epoxy primer stage plan on putting filler then a 2k high build idk what to do after blocking that out.
I want it to last but don't care how good it looks as long as it's strait and nice not too flashy. Was gonna go with machinery grey urethane single stage but I think I can pull off base/clear just doubting my skills and got a lot of money ina 500 beater, but it does only have 125k on the odo
125k is low for an 01. I would just do the base/clear since you’re already this deep. You got this bro. I just started painting and figured it out. So can you
@@nextcoat forsure, my epoxy has been coming out really nice so I think with a little more spray experience with primers and I'll have it dialed. Got a 3 gun kit also and new compressor so I am balls deep in it. New bumpers, rims the whole 9. Wanting to get it done by spring but it's cold here in central Illinois where I'm at. Bouta install a garage heater soon and get to applying body filler.
Nason sealer is minimum 15 min flash, directly from the TDS. There is something seriously wrong with that spray gun. It should not be pulsating like that. Also you can't keep a wet edge in the clear by starting in the middle of the hood.
Thank you bro 🤙 I don’t know how much is too many, I’ve only done a couple of jobs but, the most I have done 5 with the float coat. I feel like you can’t go wrong with a lot of coats, but I’m not too sure 🤣
Hi guys! Thanks for watching! The final tip(#5) is called a float coat, not a drop coat! 😅
Brother where are you located? Chicago?
Got it but 400 grit is too agresive to flowcoat 800 hundred grit is the way to go.
Flow coat is a drop coat
Aye how much to paint my obs

Thank you bro 🤙Th reason I used 400 grid is because that’s what the technical data sheet calls for. I always refer to that and rarely do things different.
If your sealing 320-400 grit is fine to use, sealer should be able to fill those sand scratches. If you’re not sealing 600-800 grit should be used.
@@donproctor4480thank you. I just got confused because he used 400 grit again to reapply 2 more coats of clear but he did mentioned to be careful burning through the paint and also to remove the orange peel before applying the clear again.

Good question. I do one light coat, then keep the wet edge 🤙
Do 3 coats of your just starting out. That way you can cut and buff your imperfections
@@nextcoat ok thanks man great video as well my painter flaked on me so I’ve been binge watching your videos to tackle my obs, hopefully mine comes out anywhere near as good as yours, cheers bro.

Can you do a video on painting door jambs?
I need you to paint my civic, ill bring it to you!
Hey epoxy primer then do I do seam sealer and add body filer or the other way around??
What compressor are you using or what size how many gallons do you recommend?
Camaro wheels w adapters?
How do you feel about a good urethane single stage?
Never shot a single stage bro. I will say, I don’t like they look. Just my opinion tho.

Hey big brother, I'm a big fan I love your work, how can I contact you for some work on my 1998 obs, I'm from Louisiana
Thank you bro! Unfortunately I’m located in Texas
I can bring it to you if your not to booked up, I will buy the paint and all the materials you need

Texas tech babayyyyy let’s go🎉

What color is that if u don’t mind me asking ?
❤
U did that Tio
Yup 🤙😎
What’s the name of this color ?
It’s bronze with a lot of flake. Custom bro
@ can I buy this paint from you I would like to paint my 68 c 10 that color
Where are you located
Htx!
Brother it’s time to start charging good money for your work. How many coats of clear is too many?
Thank you bro 🤙 I don’t know how much is too many, I’ve only done a couple of jobs but, the most I have done 5 with the float coat. I feel like you can’t go wrong with a lot of coats, but I’m not too sure 🤣
2,3 are good making sure the last one is wet with no dry spots
i had 2 cats run over my paint when i went to piss ruined it all
Another reason your back yard paint job looks like trash. Painting parts separately and not all panels at same time
