Dude, your channel is SO horribly underrated. You should shut all other paint channels down imo. This is the one stop place for everything paint. Here before 1 million.
100%.paint society rocks
I totally agree I have learned so much in a short time from this channel.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I'm just a girl, and I'm picking up what he's puttin' down.
@@joeldwarika8356p
My dad just passed down his 1977 Chevy C20 to me and your channel helps a lot thanks 💯
I've messed around with rattle cans for liveries and gimmics on ratty drift cars for fun, my friend asked me to paint his drift car but with guns and real paint. I said yes and a day or so before we were ready to start I got the feeling I was in over my head. I binged a handful of your videos the night before and it turned great for my first total respray.
Still doing it a year later? Sounds like the perfect origin story to me
Used it for the first time last weekend definitely worth buying if you're a person who likes detailing your own car recommend first time to use on lowest setting 800 so you don't burn paint don't leave in one spot keep moving it over paint easy to use ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfzbDkCRyv3CFXnLZI4APZtRRuG2uRmP2 truck looks like new again used maguires black light battery life like all milwaukee products seem to hold up well 😀
I just want to say I had a nasty scratch on my rear bumper and decided to grow some balls and fix it myself with no experience. This video helped me so much man. Hands down the best video on this topic on the internet. Thanks alot guys.
As a 48 year old man with 32 years experience in my parents shop. You. Teach me new stuff all the time. I grew up with a old school father n started in the Single stage days. I go one step farther buffing n hit it with 8000 as it helps buffing imo.
I really appreciate the fact that you make a concerted effort to annunciate your words properly! I absolutely enjoy your style of teaching. I have been planning a paint job on my old truck. I am overthinking the job.
Me too
this was probably one of your finest videos on information for anyone! !from DIY to pro! love this channel! I am a dinosaur from the 60's era of paint and prepping etc, this is what I have been missing to keep up ! thanks!
I've been painting since I was 18.
I'm 56 now and retired from car and aircraft painting but as a painter I'm always looking to learn new current techniques in the event I get back in the game either for professional or personal painting.
Your videos have taught this old dog new tricks and techniques that I find very helpful for our painting brothers and yes sisters too!
I wish I had that sanding system back in the day!
Thank you very much for you videos!
That’s awesome to hear!!!
@@PaintSociety
Keep up the great work and I'll be watching 👀
How is this video unworthy enough for 6 dislikes, it's informative and includes all the info you need, there is no need for people to dislike it
I am really sold on the K series now. Learned so much on grits, cutting speed and more
one thing I forgot to mention is to operate the DA at a slow speed to cut better.
@@PaintSociety Any good links (for novices) about rust removal and preparation? Have you already done the video and I failed to find it? I appreciate the content you provide. It's really helpful.
Thanx
Brother please don't stop doing videos for us because you help us a lot thnx a million times and all love from sweden
Thank you for putting the links in the description.after seeing that k series I’m baffled by how fast it works.i didn’t even know this brand existed.thanks for all you do boss I’ve learned so much from your videos very helpful!
thanks! yes it is great!
As a used car dealer that started learning how to do certain small jobs myself, you got a loyal sub. " Keep grinding. " Thank you for all that you do to teach guys like me ! 💯
Now that I see these old videos again I appreciate your townhouse garage even more. It was the perfect start
Just when I think your videos can't get any better you knock it out of the park again! Thanks for passing on the knowledge. I'm challenging myself to do a better job on fixing my mistakes on my next paint job. Your videos are helping me be a better painter.
thanks! This video was a long time in the making!
Sponsored video, which some people don't like, but the info is valid and clearly explained👍 and if sponsors help the channel continue....not a bad thing
Without them I can’t make videos this awesome
Wow… this feels like a free master class! Amazing video, info and presentation! Thank you so much ❤
What I like from this channel is the care of any project, clean, care all customers and good good details of the products to use.
This might be the best channel for diyers trying to learn how to paint
I am a paint lecturer in a college in the UK and use your videos in my tutorials.Many thanks
I feel like I just took a college course in sand paper, good explanations and editing.
This video answered all my questions that why my job didn’t come as goo as other colours than silver
*good
This one video has answered so many questions I have had. I have watched probably 30 of your videos but this is by far the most informative! Not to say the others weren’t, they are all great!
This is one of the best videos. Ty
Thanks Brian for the help, I am fixing up my late father’s car, and the bumper sanding helped me a lot. I just do it by hand because I don’t have air power. Those K sanding papers are awesome.
Pay attention this guy's a Saint for sharing 🙏
This was one of my favorite videos! Jam packed with information, clear before, during, and after shots! Really well done!
Thank you. Months in the making
I bought the starter kit, and some other grits months ago on your recommendation in this video. I just used them for the first time yesterday, and I have to say that Eagle Abrasives sand "paper" is amazing! It cuts quickly, evenly, and doesn't clog up. I will be buying more! Thanks!
Outstanding Brian.
Never have I seen such professionalism
In a body shop. Best wishes from England
I love the videos bud and I am learning a lot before I tackle a small job on my van. The only thing that spoils this for me, is the amount of ads that are running and keep stopping your videos. Keep up the good work.
By far one of the easiest guides to follow, I watch your other videos and appreciate the way you explain everything in a slow manner.
Thank you!
Insanely valuable time spent watching here. Thanks for investing in us.
Watched this video quite a few times and really starting to understand a lot more about the sanding required. More confident about respraying my car next year just to learn how to do it
So glad I found this. He's crazy informative 👍👍
Always been told I have skills when spraying with a can and always said its about the prep and time between primer and coats. Watching your videos has given me some enthusiasm to get myself a good compressor and gun and do my own project car a new colour 😀
Video deserves repeat viewing. 👍
Just ordered one of the starter packs Kovax intropacks from the dealer in the Netherlands. I have learned a lot from your videos.....many thanks!
I wish I could go to school for this, I would love doing this for a living. I hope someday I can achieve my dream goal!
Paint Society University, right here!!! Better than any class
Very informative. One of the better RUclips videos I've watched. Thank you
You know you’re doing great videos when so many professionals are watching them. I’d love to see your take on touching up paint chips. Thanks for everything.
Thank you so much.. One of the best channel with legit information. Once again thank you and much love from INDIA
Nice Video,WAOOOO im new in this business and the first come first,I need to learn a lot about sanding...
THANK YOU...🤔👍
As someone trying to learn a paint system: videos like this sell themselves as an introduction to a base concept, eg sanding and then take a sharp right turn deep into the weeds by including advanced topics like the difference between p and k grits.
Thank u sir for sharing the knowledge of this work..U r a master..Sir pls share more good ways of easy sanding methods..its most difficult and technical part..need lot of effort for this work..more and more new technology and methods should be invented for sanding purpose..
I'm painting my car and this video helped me out alot
Kovax is really a game changer. Haven’t tried it in prep, but in removing dirt it’s the best than the typical wet p1500 that leaves a lot of scratch and is hard to buff
Not sure if I just have not find it on your channel yet but a guide on how to pick the right compressor for spray paint a car would be a great help.
he’s got one, maybe a couple now but for sure at least one.
Didn't know I was going to be watching an infomercial for Eagle Abrasives....
I'm no longer hesitant to paint my Tahoe lol great work!!
Hey Brian, great video, Lots of information and love your content. Wanted to know if you can make a video tackling a key'd door or panel and seeing how step by step you would tackle it. In a DIY fashion. Appreciate you , keep up the good work 🤙
Great demonstration...i have used the k line up at a shop i used to work at and didn't even know at the different grit finish no wonder it was so easy to buff
Hey, one thing that would be great is if you start telling us what type of products you use more, whether it’s, waterbase, solvent base, nason, universal, sikkens, PPG, etc. I’m a student at DSC and our technician plays your videos to teach us more about refinishing and learning what you use would help us learn a little more about the paints, how it sprays, how it looks, etc! :)
You’re videos help a lot by the way!
We use sikkens base solvent
Have to keep this video for later use. Learn a lot,now for my brain to stop smoking i be good.
Ok, I watched the whole video. Not an expert on the European “P” & “K” but you did a good job of explaining the results. I see PSA sandpaper and hook & loop, not once did I catch either term used to describe this system. The cost of sandpaper goes up and the “K” series will be more expensive due to intellectual properties. I have no choice but to use PSA paper, I also understand the reason for an “Inter-Pad” of 3 cushion values and results. I find the hard nibber set interesting as well. I seen the short-stoke sander used, in other videos, to reduce the orange peel or get rid of it. I have limited funds, but will find a Short-Stoke sander, as bad elbows only get worse. This is a complete refinish on my vehicle, but will have to use PSA and the best coatings I can afford. Also, no mention of the filler but would guess it’s Evercoat. Trying my best to do it right once. Chemical strip (Bought 1 gal per visit 5 years ago before it doubled and the Methylene Chloride was reduced/take out of others), epoxy seal, filler with a mix of polyester gazing/honey for better sanding, less clogging. Always used a folded coat hanger with rubber hose handle to clean paper.
So what filler? PSA or not? ASE Master for decades but back, elbows had surgery. What my son doesn’t take, my wife throws away. Only 62, I guess it’s not the age, but the miles. Any info on products? Thanks.
Where does the video actually start because I’m 5 min in and we’re talking about the sandpaper companies. I just came for what grit to get down to bare metal before painting and priming. Nothing more nothing less
I used a 80 grit to remove layers of paint , I went to primer without smoothing my surface metal first,
I went to sand my primer and I can see all the scratches from a lower grit,
Should I go back and re sand ?
Or add more primer/filler to fill the scratches ?
Lmk !! 👌🏽
In use that k series 600 in the booth and for some bumpers with the more touchy primers from factory. It is some amazing stuff! This video was so good and detailed Brother! Keep it up! 👌👍
I will say that k600 in the booth with the hand pad is a savior, you couldn't of said it better
Hello Brian,I would highly recommend to you a Mirka products if you’re interested to do a review on their dust free net sanding solutions and sanders,cuz here in Europe their products are really really good.Your knowledge and explanation ar top notch
Every lil detail was on point
By far the most interesting content love it l have learned so much thank you
As part time DIY, I have a few nics here and there on my car that I will probable sand, compound and polish out. Your channel and wealth of knowledge allows me to choose the right approach the first time so I can get back to auto detailing which I love immensely!!!!
Thank you for the feedback !
You just keep doing what you love and we will continue to watch, learn and apply!!!
Great work. Thanks so much for your professional video.
Greetings from Croatia

The voice cracks had me laughing. 10/10 video, great info. Thanks
Still going through puberty at age 33
Paint Society me too man
the education you gave was great, you are wonderful. Thank you very much!
I'm wanting to get my 86 blazer painted but after watching alot of your videos I think I might try to paint it myself (I have never painted before so I will probably mess it up lol) but you explain everything perfectly man keep it up!
Keep watch and keep practicing. It gets easier!
Keep watch and keep practicing. It gets easier!
I’m really impressed by that K grit.
Great channel. From the info you give to how you deliver it.
This was excellent, it was extremely helpful. Now do primers: epoxy primer, urethane primer, primer sealer, high build up primer, etc. Makes my head hurt.
Watching your channel imma paint my audi myself now
Wow amazing channel. Amazing info for us newbies!
Amazing! Thank you soooo much from the uk 🇬🇧✌️✌️👏👏✌️✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸
like to see something on 10-15 yr old clear coats and how they lasted, and if that extra 100 etc was money well spent for top shelf clear... for someone wanting a long term kept car.. or aircraft as they stay outside all yr usually.
Today we changed from 3m sand paper to mirka. I gotta say I am blown away by mirka. I'm a paint prepper and I sand down all day. And one paper of 800 on clear coat will sand down 2 panel and a half. as to 3m p800 I would have gone through multiple and sand papers. Y'all should go try mirka and you will see what I mean. Paint bonus here I come 😁
Sure thing. Will do
Thanks Brian, K series looks pretty sweet! By the way noticed the perfect it system! Good stuff I used the original before it turned into quicker system years ago buffing for way longer!
perfect it is a great system
Just when I thought I was getting the hang of sanding 😲
Thanks for the info.
When you want a smoother finish. E.g. sanding out orange peel
Thanks this is something i need to know.
I guess my main question is how do we tell when we need to sand down to metal and/or when to stop sanding? I'm working on a project car (yes, I saw your Civic project vid) but when I sanded it down to rid of the clearcoat some areas exposed metal whereas some areas exposed primer, and ripples (weird). I was left with high and lows, primer, metal and ripples yet the panel felt smooth. I started with P220, P320, to P500. But mind you the metal areas were exposed while sanding with P220. Really odd. Anyhow, did I sand too much? I have other panels to sand down but don't know when to stop or rather just how far I need to sand? Your help is greatly appreciated as always.
Best painting videos, learnt so much already, about 3 videos in
My journey started.. Hope that your video will help me
I want to support the channel by having you paint my 1993 mustang lx coupe 5.0 in electric red.
Lol same
Dude you are awesome..your channel is awesome. You have helped me a ton.
Could I ask for your opinion? I want to repaint my c5 corvette myself. I will be applying base coat and clear. I have not sanded the car yet. Could I use 400 grit dry sanding of the whole car to take off the clear coat and then apply my base coat after? I'm wondering if the base coat would cover up any scratches from the 400 Grit or should I dry sand with 600 grit then apply my basecoat? I would be using a DA for this. Thank you
I'm really thinking about pursuing auto body paint/repair as a career change.. any advice? I come from a background in sales (kinda just fell into it) but I'm an artist at heart and a HUGE car nut.. I've always loved 2 stage painting projects so I'm curious if the passion would translate..
I have a opportunity to work my way up waiting too hear back on my driver license, from their insurance seems really nonchalant work. It would be awesome too know how to paint a car
That does clear some things up. Thank you very much!
LOL Including your final finish.
I learned a lot!
you just made it even MORE confusing than before I watched this video !
Best class forever I learned so much from your videos thank brain 🌹
I’ve learned so much in one video 👏
That is the video I need it.
great information! Thank you Brian! 600 grit that cuts like 320(one of my go-to's) would be amazing; especially for dark colors! I'm excited to try it
Wow really nice informative vid... 👌
Thanks for doing the diy and body shop section different
Is it a good idea to use adhesion promoter on plastic also what do you mean by sealer?
adhesion promoter is a must fo sho. Check his other vids about sealer.
When wet sanding clear coat. Doni need to take all the clear off before I can prime, or can I just the rough edges and make sure the whole area is Evenly wet sanded. Then I can prime over everything?
I painted my car I didn't do a good blending
And I remember this
IS JUST PAINT !!!
Thanks
LOL
Great channel and info here. Any prep/grit size advice for getting gelcoat read for primer and paint?
Thanks for including all the links. I found this video very useful!
When painting the plastic bumpers and like ground affects, is there something you put in the paint? I thought I heard about using a flex agent in the paint to prevent spider cracks if it's bumped into... 🤔
Priceless Brian
Watching this to fix my terrible rattle can job
Hi, thanks for all your tips its very useful to me but I have one question, what should i do if the previous painter have paint a door more darker than the original red paint (its darker) and the clear coat start to peel. What should I do please can you make a video for that. Thanks a lot
