Bro you didn't fail because most people who leave negative comments hasn't made the attempt to do what you've done Looks good And just like you I'll paint it myself before I give somebody 10k 💪🏽💪🏽👍👍👍
Thanks man! I think the end result turned out pretty rad, and I really don’t care about negative comments. Been getting them for years, and you’re right. Most haters haven’t done anything cool.
Hi from what Ive learned anytime you spray flake your suppose to clear coat it 3 coats min...then sand it down flat and smooth then add your candy etc then clear coat it again.... just sharring what Ive learned...painting so many things can go wrong , thank you for sharring your experience
Great tip! Sometimes the candy can pool around the metallic flake and cause dark halos if it is not going over a smooth base. You can run into the issue if you don't catch dust nibs or trash before you spray your candy too.
Hey mate you should of put at least 3 coats of clear over your flake and let it sit for 3-5 days. Then da sand the clear with 600 then apply your candy. I have done a lot of flake over candy’s and always turn out smik. Still came out nice tho.
Great job! Getting out of jambs are all part of the game and experience is the best teacher.. With your plastic, if you use an automotive masking plastic there is one side that is treated and must be placed treated side up or you will run into the issue of the overspray flaking off and getting into your wet paint. Keep at it, love the color! Feel free to reach out if you have any tech questions
Check your plastic, most is one sided for paint, and it should say it on there, it'll say "paint this side" or "paintable". The other side is slick so it won't leave residue on the protected paint, so it won't hold the over spray, and will allow it to flake off. One other thing, if you do another flake job, spray your flake, then clear it. The flake stands up, and thats where you're getting the texture from. Spray three to four coats of clear, sand, then spray your candy. Its a pain, but it looks amazing.
Thanks!!! I still don’t feel confident enough to try to do someone else’s car. This always goes hectic for me. Lol. And I’m trying to get her to do something with her cars, but she’s been really busy with other stuff a lot this year. 😕
10:54 hahaha I'm totally guilty of this. It make me feel better about my own failures when someone else is also suffering. 😅 thank you for your service
Heres some free advice. Use high build primer for leveling. Use a epoxy primmer sealer under paint coat Use a wet bed for your silver ground coat. Use a wet bed for your flake to sink into. Nib paint with a nibbing plastic razor blade. micro sand any chunks level. Rub it good and hard with a tack cloth. Apply 2 coats of clear coat. Let sit in darkness 2 days. cook it in full sun 2 days. put in cool place 2 days. Finish sand it for refinishing. Apply your candy as you would any base coat. Nib candy coat. Tackcloth it. Apply your finish clear the way you want it to look from first coat to last coat. Micro nib, micro buff nib downs. Polish paint. Do not cut clear coat. Do not use a buffer. If cutting and buffing is necessary. Just colorsand it and reclear it better. Use guide coat chalk
I do like slow motion stuff but usually only save it for b roll and glamour shots. Mostly because the file sizes get pretty big and paint takes forever. And is pretty dirty for the expensive cameras too. I need to hire a camera guy with clean hands. Lol.
Dear Sir, it's the 4th time I've seen this vid. The simplicity, the length, editing, music, humor, and of course...THAT SUPER SEXY COLOR❤. I'm afraid it won't be the last time😮😂
Kandy is kinda like penny wise in a way. You cant let it intimidate you. Paint brand and type of reducer ( slow, medium,fast) are EVERYTHING . Some lower end paints tend to have poor coverage and won't lay smooth. Try kapci base you'll never look back.
For you to do kandy the first time you did pretty well dude? And you stayed with it, mettalic, kandy are the two more difficult paint jobs to do buddy!!! Good job hanging in there!!!!
This is just a thought for next time if you ever decide to do candy paint again just for you to try if you want as i think you will like the ease and long lasting result. I never mix my candy concentrate with top clear ever. I mix it with base clear binder. Reason being is candy concentrate mixed with top clear will not last long and will fade out since your top clear with uv properties will not be able to do what its supposed to do. Works better if the clear by its self is topped over all paint by itself. Another thing you can do with base clear binder is spray 3 coats over your when done then airbrush any graphics or any tape out strips with waterbourne paint so if you screw up you can wipe it with a damp cloth and start over. Those 3 extra coats of base clear binder lock in your midcoat and give you a safe surface to paint on. Then once graphics are done top clear everything
I hope you're not offended for what I said just want to let you know straight out you have to be a perfectionist at every time you do any work on a car especially painting priming in the whole nine yards take the time to take some courses if this is what you like to do now the proper way of handling from beginning to win when I saw from you is being negative from the beginning to the end and oh well wish for the best that's not the attitude this is a work of art and you take it as a work of art not just something to do it's sad that your attitude about the whole thing is so negative oh well I don't know what else to say to you good luck
That's no reaction. Those bumps are the flakes. 004 . Made a rough texture. You should have shoot two coats of clear to bury the flake . Smoothin out the flake. You could sand the clear.. Before spaying the candy.. Then shoot candy. Then more clear
Dear Sir
You've inspired me to paint my Honda ...FINALLY 😮 TYVM
Glad I could help!

Thanks man! It did turn out pretty awesome, in the end.
Great job. Good recovery. It’s good to see how to fix things when they go wrong. Love to see it in the sun.

Great color choice. Looks good 👍
Nice recovery,,, looks good...need to add ur right hand...ms amanda..in ur video,s....

Maybe cause u didn't tack it between silver coats specially with metallic and that room without ventilation
The texture comes from the primer after your primer block it 320 then 400
Heres some free advice.
Use high build primer for leveling.
Use a epoxy primmer sealer under paint coat
Use a wet bed for your silver ground coat. Use a wet bed for your flake to sink into.
Nib paint with a nibbing plastic razor blade.
micro sand any chunks level.
Rub it good and hard with a tack cloth. Apply 2 coats of clear coat.
Let sit in darkness 2 days.
cook it in full sun 2 days.
put in cool place 2 days.
Finish sand it for refinishing.
Apply your candy as you would any base coat.
Nib candy coat.
Tackcloth it.
Apply your finish clear the way you want it to look from first coat to last coat.
Micro nib, micro buff nib downs.
Polish paint.
Do not cut clear coat.
Do not use a buffer.
If cutting and buffing is necessary.
Just colorsand it and reclear it better.
Use guide coat chalk
Dear Sir, We need more videos like this. VERY FEW on RUclips 😭😭 Not too long or short. TYVM 👀😎💯👍👍👍
Thanks!! I should be doing another paint video soon. Been prepping my Skyline for paint over the last few weekends. Just been busy.
@@RobRabonPhotog Just a humble suggestion: maybe include slow motion. Cool effect used judiciously 😎 TYVM 💯👍

Sometimes we fail in order to get successful results especially when painting cars!!

Don't be so hard on yourself, maybe lots more clear and polishing will flat the orange peel?
GORGEOUS colour 💜
Good stuff man, I can build an engine but I cannot paint.
Thanks! I tried. I was always intimidated by paint, and it is definitely a learning process, but I feel like anyone can do it with some patience.
Good color choice godrabon
Thanks! ☺️☺️☺️
We'll come back TOMORROW....LOL 👀😎

Oh my gawd
I see you know about that tamco paint...alot of painters lost on it..I like it better that the old way
Get closer with gun real close wet coats spray the candy like a clear
Texture comes from you spraying paint too dry coat after coat made it have orange peel for days just lay it on more wet
Looks great! I really want you to do my car lol
Thanks man!
And I still wouldn’t feel confident enough to try to do someone else’s car……yet anyways. Lol.
Flake causes the bumpy texture flake never lays flat it looks good after clear tho
Hope you don't quit your day job
I have never heard of somebody spraying candy paint and and then sanding it big no no
The spots you have in your paint could be water, or oil from your compressor
🤘🏼
whats the colour code? thanks
DTM needs to shrink back for at least 3 days. If you're SERIOUS 😮
Alway clear flake before color
That's no reaction. Those bumps are the flakes. 004 . Made a rough texture. You should have shoot two coats of clear to bury the flake . Smoothin out the flake. You could sand the clear.. Before spaying the candy.. Then shoot candy. Then more clear
What’s paint code
Looks horrible. Dope part is you did it yourself and learned for next time. Experience is the best teacher. Next time will be better.
Deff doesn't look horrible. When cut and buffed and in the sun it should look decent
some serious orange peel but nothing a good colorsand and buff cant fix.
Boat paint on a mustang......
Your specks are flake
