Next time go to your local paint shop and give them your Paint code and ask them to mix it up in a few spray cans, and buy a nice clear like Spraymax 2k or Upol Clear #1. Make sure you spray a wet layer of clear for the last coat and you should get a really good finish.
@@aybrant Spraymax 2k and Upol Clear #1 are box gloss clear coats, local paint shop should have both. They can also point you in the direction of a good primer to use!
Did this on my 07 Sierra classic and it was that easy, but the only thing is to NOT LOSE any screws, clips, bolts, or anything else that you need to put it back together
Those look fantastic. It's a good thing the truck was black, you barely had to even color match the back pieces. My red 2006 Silverado had to get them paint matched.
You should've gotten some primer just to fill in/soak in to the plastic and then spray the black, I'd def do about the same coats as you did, wait to dry, wetsands, wipe with some alchohol and see how it looks, if it's good then clear or spray more black, wetsand, clear. They look solid though just need to be more smooth / glossy.
excellent videos! you hit up any local "pick an pull" places? i was super lucky and a color matching tahoe showed up! getting that lock pin out is scary! i've been a fan of automotivetouchup for color match paint. end of the day, it is hard to not be perfect, totally get it! your passion really comes thru. Funny, chrome delete where there is stock chrome and chrome add where there wasn't. part way thru the video, did you add a chrome tailgate handle? (doing the same stuff with my 99 silverado)
I would have just scuffed them with a red scotchbright pad before painting them. 320 was a little much. Other than that they look great on the truck and looking forward to more content.
Scuff with 400 grit wet/dry style sandpaer , .. If you want the gloss to match the body paint , you need to spray clear coat 10 minutes after the color coat without sanding as it bonds to the color coat ,
Bro chomper looks so good with that I thought it was just a waste of time doing that but it looks so good and chomper has a better exhaust then almost every race car in my area and some people have more than 80 k in a car just to have a 06 5.3 sound better then there car
I had to get a replacement door handle for my 2001 Tahoe few months ago and it was already painted like the ones you got but mine don’t have the chrome handle I put mine on like it was and it Match the truck and the other door handles
If you are going spray out of a can I recommend to use one of this 2 clears they give you factory finish results. Spray Max 2K High Gloss Finish Clear Coat Spray Paint or Eastwood 2k Aerosol Spray | Clear Coat Automotive. The clear that you used will not give you the best gloss.
Love this truck. I think the door handles are perfect and they kind of go with and compliment the fender flares which have a matte look themselves. I love the setup of the whole truck it’s perfect in my opinion. I have a white 05 exactly like this truck but with a 6in lift and I have the same cam on the way for it. I’d like to know the suspension set up you have because I plan to do away with the 6in lift it’s just a little over kill and doesn’t ride the greatest and this is the look I’m going for honestly.
I had a 03 cateye and had all chrome on it and I didn’t like it… one of them being door handles… I bought a set (2, extended cab) and they where 15$. They where from Amazon and came gloss black like your truck. If you wanted to look!
I'm not an expert by any means, but when i painted my rear bumper and bumper plastic I used a filler primer and it took care of a lot of the deep scratches and you can't see where it was textured.
By "color matching" you mean "color matching as long as it's black". Obviously you can't just throw those handles onto any color truck without paint. Also, any color other than black or white are going to be tougher to get just right. Also, less of the handles are black now than when you started. 😄
Truck is awesome but still too much chrome for my liking. I bought the cheaper handles for my '16 and had my local body shop paint them for me. 100 bucks and they look perfect.
Also did this to my '07 Silvy Classic and it classes these bad boys up! Had 2 inspection guys tell me what a "gorgeous" truck it is. Having guys check out my truck is like having chicks check out my
I took some door handles to a shop for color match n paid top dollar and they did not match at all and took weeks smh I hate that Shid I don’t like wasting money just say you can’t do the job
Here's another idea. Paint match the mirrors and finder flayers
Ahh yes flayers
Yessuhhhhh
@@socal_c10 you know what he meant why even comment
flayers bubba!
What are finder flayers? Fender Flares- oh
Love the videos man!! keep em comin!
Will do, thank you!

what’s a deep glossy clear coat?
and what primer is best for paint matching
@@aybrant Spraymax 2k and Upol Clear #1 are box gloss clear coats, local paint shop should have both. They can also point you in the direction of a good primer to use!
You should put a cowl hood on the GMC
Did this on my 07 Sierra classic and it was that easy, but the only thing is to NOT LOSE any screws, clips, bolts, or anything else that you need to put it back together
You should put a led reverse light to match all the other stuff
Other people might not like it but I love it!

Man I love the nature in the background!!
Black mirrors with the chrome caps needs to happen next I think
Yes! Chrome caps and taking the flares off or paint matching them would look soo sick
@@blainegregory01 bingo! Exactly what I’m hoping he does!
Definitely get the spraymax 2k clear it looks and sprays perfect.
I used cheaper chrome handles on my 14 and the salt in the winter ate the chrome so I hope yours are a better brand
I did my grill and used the laquer clear. By dupli color. It’s in a white can But that will give you that wet look
All you needed was a clear coat but yessir good stuff! Chomper goes hard!

I think painted fender flares would look perfect
Looks good. Now paint them pull handles black as well.
Looks killer. Them fender flares are killing me though

You can get a tailgate bezel color matched for $50 on eBay
Yessir! Love the content!
Keep up the good work 👍.

Did chomper still clap with long tube headers before cam
I'm not an expert by any means, but when i painted my rear bumper and bumper plastic I used a filler primer and it took care of a lot of the deep scratches and you can't see where it was textured.
I would definitely shave the tailgate handle. Looks so clean
You should put chrome mirrors on
You should make a vid of diy switchback door handles. Their pretty simple
Did you even clear coat them?
Man I love this truck and your f150!! I would love to have this gmc shoot I would trade you my 2015 gmc sierra 4x4 crew cab leveled on 20s and 35s
2k clear is the way to go
1. Don't do anything else to the handles. They are halfway between the flares and painted.
2. Chrome mirror caps.
I’m planning to do led strip on the door handle
I have no reason to watch this video… but your truck is too clean to not click on 😂

The duplicolor clear coat doesn’t have a super good shine the best clear coat from a rattle can is from Eastwood
Do a stereo installation
I wanna see it with Denali tow mirrors
You need the 2k clear coat

They pass the squint test!!
Paint match mirrors with chrome caps
It’s the clear they now sell 2k clear in a cab it’ll look 1000x better
