Great job del as a painter myself I’m glad you went with gloss it really did the colour justice. And I’m glad you opened the eyes to many as to what goes into a professional paint job. Top work 👍👍👍
I truly hated to see the old custom paint job gone after so much work and it turned out so well, but its great that you had the opportunity to test your skills in a pro paint shop. Great job!
Hi Del, I learned how to spray years ago when I worked for ICI. It's a totally different ball game and having a full mixing scheme to hand is amazing. You have achieved a lovely result, and the finish is way deeper and richer than you can achieve with rattle can paint. There is no sink back, and the distinction of image looks great.
Thank you David, I really appreciate your input, I learned so much in one day, and the biggest lesson of all was that there is a technique to using the gun efficiently aside from all of the technical information to take in, just handling the gun effectively is the thing that will take the practice, and I hope to get some more soon, as I have an open invite to go back whenever I need to!
It took me a while to learn the correct distance and technique. I was taught by an amazing lady who was tiny, but able to spray a whole car smoothly and quickly despite her size. She didn’t tolerate lazy technique and made sure that I got it right.
Really like the color, and what an awesome job you've done with it... could not ask for more, there. And I'm happy you decided to go with gloss. I think it looks so much better. Cannot wait to see it on the bike.
Some gold decals, or pinstriping work (if Mackie could be worked into it...) would be amazing on that paint. Well done, brother! As I said...I might be just a tad jealous. Someday! Shiny side up!
Hey buddy.. No Decals, and certainly NO Pin lines.. big areas of block colour, plain and simple. maybe just a black tank badge.. not sure yet. . Have a good weekend and take care.. D&Px
@@Moonfleet41 I think gold would mesh very well with that color. But, between Penny and yourself, you have a lot of design experience, so I'm sure what you do will be awesome. Later!
Wow Del that was mind blowing. what a great job you have done for your first time in a professional Booth And the color is fantastic Mate. Can't wait for the next installment to see it all on the Harley
Hey mate for the first time spraying you did a tremendous job. I guess you will now go out and buy some guns....yea I have 7...its a very rewarding thing to complete the project with a great paint job. Thumbs under the armpits stand back and say "Hell I did that", spot on Dell.
Thanks mate, I've very lucky indeed to have the offer of the paint booth any time I need it at the moment, and I don't have the room to build a paint booth yet, but it is something planned for the future... thanks for your kind words, much appreciated!
Yea Del, I think you have done this before. Really awesome job. Love the color you picked out. That will look really sharp on the bike. Looked like you had a lot of fun there Del. A lot of work too.
Thanks buddy, glad you enjoyed the video, it was a lot of fun and learning too... hope you got our email, thanks so much for your support, all the best from us both.
You're damn right Sir, if only I had the space! That booth would take up 3/4 of my shop and I'd have no room for anything else! Damn it, I need a bigger shop... thank you for your support Sir and great to hear from you.
Bloody nice job Del, brilliant colour mate. Who's a clever boy then. You make me want to get my dad's spray gun out and have a play. Penny and you have a relaxing weekend. Cheers
Hi mate, thanks so much, and you're right it's a great skill to learn... have a great weekend yourself, pretty much deserted everywhere at the moment due to the virus, no-one venturing very far! Hope you're ok there, keep safe, D&Px
Cheers Dave, no honest truth, never used a booth before, but perhaps a spray gun in the open air many years ago and it didn't go well... the guidance is what really helped and it made all the difference!
I was a fan of the old paint job as it looked very good, however this looks a fantastic colour looking forward to seeing it on the bike. I would like to have a go myself. A mate of mine is a sprayer and did some million pound cars. have to get him to teach me. Well done great job achieved.
Del,I really love the color. I was watching on the tv and had to pause and tell you that I need to know what color it is. good luck with the rest of the build.
Good job! looks good! I am sure glad you moved away from those rattle cans! they are for kids and bicycles and old women and lawn chairs. Also so glad you decided on gloss matte is so has been. I knew you could do it! I remember I was so nervous first time I did it. If I was in the UK I would buy you a beer. The whole key is that fine line not so thick it runs but not so thin it orange peels
Thanks buddy, it is a fin line indeed.. it helps that the booth provides the perfect environment for paint as most of the issues painting in a garage come from dust and trash in the air.. plus it helps that it cures in 35 minutes once you crank up the heat and bake it.
god damn bloody beautiful paint job. i think you did a great job and gloss was definitely the way to go. i'm planing to repaint my softail a similar colour but of course from rattle can. nice one
Thanks buddy, apart from this one paint job, I've done just about every job I've done myself using rattle cans... and as you'll know, they make a fine result with the right application, so good luck with it, and let us know how it goes!
Lovely colour will look great with the chrome and a great experience for you to use a professional spray booth. All what you need to do is to put it all back together and then send off the V5 coz of the colour change of the motorbike just hope it comes back before the break in the weather so u can admire the hard work done. Great video again. Well done guys can't wait to see the results when fitted.
Thanks Andy, the camera can't do it justice, looks like three different colours in proper daylight... when the weather improves I'll take it out for a ride!
Fantastic job kind of the guy to help out colour is amazing will look nice on the Harley off to Harley next week taking the new street bob out for a spin 👍
Hey bro I am so happy to see the end result of a great job as a first timer ..You know what you are doing and be living in your self and it's the most important thing your need..that is trust..God is with you keep what you love doing..congrats bro it's lovely %100*****🤛🤗
She's going to be a stunner Del. To be honest the way you were working the gun it looked like you had been doing it for years. Penny's bike will be getting a make over now ;)
Thank you Hughie, good to hear from you Sir, it was a lot of fun, and I have handled a spray gun many years ago, but not in recent memory, it was great to experience the 'big stage'!
Looks very good That was my first job when left school long time ago . Was handy for re-spaying my bikes in lunch hour . I remember nothing like WD40 or normal car polish was NOT allowed anywhere near the garage full of silicon and leaves Specs in the paint . . I cry using Halfords spray cans You used to be able to get fan nozzle spray cans bit better control don’t see them anymore .
Love that new color but I have to admit I’m a little sad to see the old paint job go. Your original paint job looked really good and it was cool / unique that you did it with spray paint in your garage! Either way...cheers man, nice work!
I agree, just trying to find one that doesn't cost as much as a new bike!! First time I've searched for them and they're ridiculously expensive... the CVO bar and shield badge I wanted was over £300 a pair!! Just insane...
How satisfying was that mate, could tell you were having fun doing it, massive learning curve for me too going from basic rattle can paint to 2 packs, dunno about you but i found this method a lot easier than rattle can application, everything from the panel wipe degreaser to the room you have in a proper spray booth to the drying and curing times, so much easier than waiting days for a chemical cure to occur when you have an oven baking the paint, colour looks amazing though i doubt the youtube contrast does them any justice mate, they POP once you get them in the sun on the bike. Cracking video mate, give my best to The Bride Penny x. Take care. Glen Claypole.
Hey Glen.. Yes it was a huge culture shock, 35 minutes and its ready to rub down, thats crazy, like you said, that would be days and even then you'd have to be gentle.. You're right also, it looks incredible in the sunshine (from the short glimpse i had walking it back to my unit), some camera shots it looks gold.. others it looks a dark orange. but in daylight it's all of those colours and shimmers too.. really happy with it so far. have a good weekend mate, and thanks for your support.. Del.
@@Moonfleet41 have to get rid of the tea / seating area now,, buy a small shed or build some studding, use one wall and the door wall so it makes an L shape and put it up one of the corners of the unit, line the inside of it with that PVC Cladding or plastic bathroom Corex wall board, install a small bathroom wall extractor and create your own mini spray booth now, or even a pop up pvc gazebo if it`ll fit in the workshop.
What a great job, you were right to go with the gloss as opposed to the satin finish, I would definitely put some sort of decal on the tank, either a solid badge or a minimalist black bar & shield. Stay safe as regards this virus, I was supposed to fly to Prague today but it's all off, better safe than sorry, hi to PP x👍😎
Hi Geoff, good to hear from you mate, id like to fit badges but finding them all to be made from solid gold..at least the prices indicate that they must be... fitting it back together tomorrow, so will see how it looks without.. Stay safe buddy.. Del.
@@Moonfleet41 I just entered,"Harley Davidson badges for the tank" into the search box in Ebay & loads came up, but you need to be patient & trawl through the list, hope you find what you need 👍
@@geoffozevans4500 Oh yeah, there are plenty, but ridiculous money for what they are.. mass produced for pennies, and still even expensive second hand.!
Well done brother ! Welcome to the world of professional coating 👍🏻 people wonder why it's so expensive to get a paint job , Well it's not when you know what's involved and now you know . I miss the fantastic results but don't miss the repaint when things occasionally go south ..great show buddy im so glad you have experienced the joy of laying on a top quality paint 👍🏻really pleased for you Del be proud you deserve it 👍🏻☮❤
Thanks buddy.. it was a monster adventure, and i learned a lot about the process, not just the chemical information, but even down to the manual techniques needed to lay up the coats.. the maddest change was the 35 minutes to bake it off hard enough to sand back the barrier primer rather then the days it takes with air dried paint.. Having fun and learning new stuff.. don't get no better than that aye. Have a good weekend aye.. D&Pxx
Holy smokes, Del! What an awesome outcome.... nicely done. I think your neighbor may ask you to build him a bike now? 😎. Hope you and Penny are staying safe and healthy there. 🏍👍🏍
Hey Gary, yes indeed, he's a good friend, and am happy to do a few favours for him too... we're ok here, down town is quiet, no-one about, but we're safe and well at the moment, hope the same your side, look after yourselves, D&Px
Delboy's Garage - he sure seems like a good man! Yes, same here- we’re staying close to home. The 🌎 is quite upside down! Stay well, and thx for everything you do. 😎
Hi Del, what did you use to wipe down the paint properly and cleanly in-between coats to in order to keep the dust off? I'm going to be painting my tank soon, but can find very little information on the type of cloths I need, and I understand they have to be 'solvent based' lint-free cloths for use between clears and Candys etc?
Thanks Paul, was a great experience, and I learned a great deal from my friend... will be doing some more in the future, which I'm already looking forward to, have a great week, keep safe, and try and avoid the media panic, D&Px
Brilliant, just brilliant...love this color. I for one am so happy you chose gloss. Absolutely the best choice hands down as Satin would do a big disservice to all that color. This bike is going to look stunning now if you ask me. It’s just my taste, and I’m so bored with Black painted bikes. If you said so I missed it, so why did you decide to scrap the old paint job you did?
Firstly, thank you for your kind words Patrick, the whole thing from start to finish was an evolution, at the start I fully intended to paint it matt black, then the painter suggested I look through his colour charts before I decided, we looked at some great satin copper finishes, and if you watched the video all through, you'll see we literally decided on the hoof to go with gloss, once I'd got the colour fully laid up, it took on a satin finish (as it always does) and I saw the potential straight away in using a clearcoat, so all in all, really happy with the result... it pays to stay flexible and keep your options open aye?! As for scrapping the old paint job, much as I loved it, sometimes it looked a little fussy and busy in place with all the other black and chrome, I felt a single block colour would, maybe, simplify the bike and make it look a little more sleek! Plus, of course, a wonderful opportunity handed to me by a generous pro painter willing to reach out to the amateur sector.
The same pain job in rattle can would be about 5 videos long and a hundred hours drying time. turned this around in a day and the results speak for themselves! Amazing
I was nervous for you del dealing with a pro del but aww my days dose that look amazing you must be well pleased with that 👍👍👍 and make sure you give him a good brew ye 😉😂😂😂
@@Moonfleet41 I think he's got everything. He's a bike dealer as well as a TV jack-of-all-trades :-) But I was more referring to his love of spraying 'everything' Apple-Candy-Red a slightly more sparkly version of your paint job.
I’m a fan of the colour too, like nearly anyone with a sense of style. The Harley version of the similar maroon colour was special in satin though but what a pain it was I suppose to keep in good order.

Firstly, thank you for your kind words Patrick, the whole thing from start to finish was an evolution, at the start I fully intended to paint it matt black, then the painter suggested I look through his colour charts before I decided, we looked at some great satin copper finishes, and if you watched the video all through, you'll see we literally decided on the hoof to go with gloss, once I'd got the colour fully laid up, it took on a satin finish (as it always does) and I saw the potential straight away in using a clearcoat, so all in all, really happy with the result... it pays to stay flexible and keep your options open aye?! As for scrapping the old paint job, much as I loved it, sometimes it looked a little fussy and busy in place with all the other black and chrome, I felt a single block colour would, maybe, simplify the bike and make it look a little more sleek! Plus, of course, a wonderful opportunity handed to me by a generous pro painter willing to reach out to the amateur sector.
Looks good mate , got me thinking of how it would look with the brushed metal sides
Top job Del, spectacular finish!
It was a great learning day and hoping to be doing it again in the near future, thanks for your kind words!
just had to watch it again ! and remembered to hit the thumbs up (I always forget doh!) 👍🏻☮❤
Good call on the gloss versus matte/satin in my opinion. Well done!
And YOU wanted a satin paint.
NICE job, Del.

The same pain job in rattle can would be about 5 videos long and a hundred hours drying time. turned this around in a day and the results speak for themselves! Amazing
Great job, well done. Did you treat the under-side of the fenders with anything different or a protective coat?

I reckon you've been STALKING Henry Cole :-) ..... Lovely Job ........
Has he got a Harley then?!!
@@Moonfleet41 I think he's got everything. He's a bike dealer as well as a TV jack-of-all-trades :-)
But I was more referring to his love of spraying 'everything' Apple-Candy-Red a slightly more sparkly version of your paint job.
I’m a fan of the colour too, like nearly anyone with a sense of style. The Harley version of the similar maroon colour was special in satin though but what a pain it was I suppose to keep in good order.
The gloss really makes it pop. So glad you never went satin. Look forward to seeing it all back on the bike... :o)
nice choice Dell ... looks cracking .. cant wait to see it on bike
Cheers Del your hard work has paid of. Thank you.
Sweet colour!!!
