    In 97', 11th grade, Moms gave me $600 for a blk on blk 79' 2dr Cutlass Supreme! Girlfriend at the time scratched every panel to the metal. Even tried to put 2-3 pack of sugar in the tank. That lil 260 kept running tho. Thats what happened to my free car 😄

That shi box came out fabulous. Great results. And good for the kid receiving it. Hope he appreciates it. Your boss is a good man for doing that for his nephew. And yeah i had to buy my first car on my own. A '78 Coupe de Ville. Bought it in 1989 for about $900. Was a bomb. Always fixing something. Never got to fix the bodywork. Junked it after a couple of years. Anyway we all been there done that. Taught us a lesson. Keep doin what you do Triggerman. Awesome. And you're funny as hell.

    Man, night and day from what it was. good work. New to your channel so maybe you already have this, but it would be cool to see a video where you go over different levels of paint jobs. From cheapest, shortest lifespan, to the more expensive, longest lasting paint job. How much each one cost, what equipment you need for each one, and whether or not it would be worth it financially to diy it. You could even make it a whole series. Liked and subbed.

    • @thetriggerman954
      @thetriggerman954  2 месяца назад

      Jet black sould be the easiest job for you. Good choice for a first timer. Just write down your game plan of attack from all of the research you've done/ videos you've watched. Then stick to that. from your prep work to your last step whether that's stopping after clear coat coat or cut and buffing. Just have your plan of attack on paper. Don't just freestyle it in your head. This way you're actually sticking to The results of your research. That's the best advice I can give you . And don't sway away from it.

    A true talented painter can paint in all conditions. Different guns. weather conditions. Temperatures. Nobody is perfect and everyone makes mistakes when it comes to different conditions. But somehow a good painter makes it work. Buffing, touchup, paint corrections. Taping off runs. little razor blade scrappage. Picking out a fly. the work before and after the spray job.....all that makes a good painter. The trigger man is the real deal!!!

    hey trigger man love the video I'm getting into single stage paint jobs I usually do two stage got a question for you when I use two stage base coat and clear the base coat goes on great and the clear coat goes on great.
    help complaints single stage seems a bit thick using a 4-1 single stage 28 PSI should I add should I add one or two parts reducer it's coming out very choppy also can you recommend a really good air regulator for spray guns diaphragm something really good

    • @thetriggerman954
      @thetriggerman954  5 месяцев назад

      4:1 so that's 4 part paint to 1 part activator with no reducer? Check with where you buy the paint from and ask if there is any reduction needed. If not then you might have to crank up the pressure some, and make sure the spray gun can handle / good atomization for that paint maybe nozzle size your have to play around with different things if it requires no reducer.

    I painted 3 double sided 10'x15' Hospital signs with a satin brushed aluminum ugh got so lucky i didnt have any sags as they were sprayed vertical, metallic, pearl its all similiar so if u can get good with one u can get good with them all. Lol i had to do a light coat first so it was stickier for my second coat, I never was good with a heavy first coat. But Gg on the paint job, quality!!

Made it look like it never happened, I mean I could tell but the boss couldn't so not only fix the dent but patch spray the repaired area blended the brushed aluminum evenly.

    Good job man, good gun technique, i haven't used single stage metallic since i was at collage in th 90s, not even sure if we can buy it anymore here in the uk, The job looked alright with it, i remember they painted Vauxhalls with it back from factory and they didn't last long, after watching this i wanna have a go with it. What's it like to polish

    • @thetriggerman954
      @thetriggerman954  5 месяцев назад

      Thank you sir! Not my favorite but it serves it's purpose. I haven't polished it much usually these jobs are spray and go. But from what I remember the few times I did Polish it years back it posihes up nice only thing you will see a slight difference in the metallics so it's best to get a good off the gun finish if possible otherwise posish the entire car to keep everything looking uniform.
      Thank you for watching 🫡

    • @TheHumblePaintSprayer333
      @TheHumblePaintSprayer333 5 месяцев назад

      Thanks for that, i did wonder if it would change the appearance if it was polished, Ive had some issues recently with polishing some pastel colours in 2k direct gloss on the system i use which is Mipa OC, i buy the 2k in as i only have a water base coat scheme, it changes colour when you polish it but only on the pastel colours, its a binder system on the 2k which has options for it to be MS or HS OC ( One Coat ), coverage and gloss is great with the OC but you can't polish the pastel colours, MS is better for polishing pastel colours but poor coverage and average gloss

    The only dent repair work I've done is using dry ice to pop our minor hail damage. Surprisingly it improved the look but I'm sure it wasn't nearly as good as we thought it was.
    Guess I'll ask 1 question since I'm going to be painting my own projects this year. Would you trust a snap-on Saber?
    The gun has sentimental value, my buddies father passed away and it was a gift, and I was going to honor him by using it for my personal projects. I can borrow paint guns from a handful of body guys and figured I would get your opinion.
