    if you are going to OEM color it can you do midnight purple? kinda a shame to paint it just white.

    • @smoll.miniatures
      @smoll.miniatures 17 часов назад +8

      Midnight never came on r32s, would cost a small fortune, is extremely difficult to lay down and repair if damaged. Original white is the only way to go. Never change the colour of a car.

    I would paint it with pearl white, meaning it looks flat like what you applied but under any direct light source, you will see that there's something more to the paint.
    Just a very subtle sparkle under direct lighting, you know. What you applied is fine as well. It is up to a personal preference at the end of the day.
    Also what I would do is throw some accent color in there like bright green-yellow or bright orange on things like the callipers. Maybe also a pinstripe that follows the very characteristic curve that starts around the rear fender goes through the whole side and wraps around the front wheel arch.

    Good job choosing Axalta Metallux for your basecoat. It's originally a more cost affordable polyestor basecoat to the European brand paints.
    If I can make a suggestion, I don't know what clear you used in the interior, but I know you used some lower tier Urethane primer.
    Lower grade primers have less solids and are prone to more shrinkage. Though most of your panels are new such as the quarters, rockers and stuff, in future restorations, use a Epoxy high build. PPG makes one called VP2050 which is excellent and little shrinkage. It was created originally for industrial and moved to their restoration/custom car line.
    There's no true DTM for a Urethane. When I spoke to a chemist for BASF, he told me DTM are only made for collision where a little bare metal is exposed, not to prime a whole car without an Epoxy first.
    Another great product is Evercoat Superbuild.
    PPG VP2050 is a hybrid Epoxy high build and Evercoat SuperBuild is a hybrid Polyestor filler.
    For a clear, since you already have the metallux base, look into PPG 2021 clear. Do not buy it at a jobber. They will charge you $900+. You can source it from a vendor on E-B-A-Y for a quarter of that.
    For sound deadener, I would see if you can get all your materials from Carbuilders out of Australia.
    If I had to choose a color for an R32 GTR it is definitely (AH3) Red Pearl Metallic.
    Keep up the great work

    • @KalvinMalli
      @KalvinMalli  16 часов назад +3

      Where? I’m not seeing anything haha. Considering the whole car has been blown apart and down to bare metal it would be extremely unlikely 😁 if you’re seeing a copper color inside the quarter panel, it’s weld through primer. That’s the only thing I can guess to what you’re referring to. There’s no rust bro 😂

    Kalvin, You did an amazing job man! Looks dope! When you’re done painting the complete car you should really put Reflex Pro II coating on the paint to keep that freshly painted shine. There is a guy in your area, Maybe you have heard of him. Ammo Nyc. The best when it comes to detailing. Check out some of his vids and products and you know what i am talking about. This beauty of a car is definitely worth that treatment especially after all the work and love you put in to it! Let me know what you are going to do. For the mean time. Keep up the amazing stuff brother. Aint nobody got that attention to detail and ability to go the extra mile like you do anymore.

  • @BlackTownie999
    @BlackTownie999 14 часов назад

    I'd say for under the hood the Design Engineering 010393 Reflect-A-Gold High-Temperature Heat Reflective Adhesive Backed Sheets would be the best for around the firewall and other heat sensitive areas...Then on the other side of the firewall I'd probably go with Siless Liner 157 (4 mm) mil 36 sqft Car Sound Deadening Closed Cell Foam & Heat Insulation mat - PE Foam Sound Deadener Material & Heat Barrier...or something like that with as good or better reviews...
    With any stick on product always triple check that the surface is free of dirt or dust or oils...I'd assume since your body work and paint is new its just shop dust you'd have to worry about...
    Your paint looks beautiful btw...I'd consider the clear coat extra protection against rust ;)

    Looks good for sure but I can't help but say imo it's a waste to go that far with an interior that will be covered in sound deadening and then a full interior, the paint and clear coat used there probably could of painted the car and saved some money, but it does look really good.
