WAT A BEAST!!!!!
Zosh thanks! Will we see you August 11, this Sunday at Acura Honda Classic ?
@@PaintSociety considering my motor just locked up idk brotha :(
Zosh man! We might need to send an Acura Honda Classic crew out there!
@@PaintSociety
how did you get rid of the edge where the masking tape was? when i do this, i get a thick line between the old and new paint or a edge of orange peel,
so what is it that i do wrong then?
@@PaintSociety Hello, can I apply clear to the paint directly?
So because of this virus going around my tech school is closed and now we’re doing online classes. And my instructor send us this video to write a review over lol. That was last week. Now I’m watching your videos everyday for the fun of it and get great information 😂
Omg how funny. Hopefully your review was good!
Brian, this is a testament to your awesome teaching spirit! Thank you so much for the great content, you are helping so many people learn and grow!
Thank you!!
I've seen many great painters these last few years but Brian is the master of his craft - the Goat. Flawless perfection every time.
I worked for a government fleet for 30 years, on every car, truck and anything else with a motor. We had one body guy for a fleet of over 1,000 vehicles and when he retired they closed the position. But the guy was around 60 and an absolute whiz. Everybody said nobody ever saw him work and every time you went by his shop he was sitting, or else out. But dented cars came in, new looking cars came out.
But in a way only a city worker would do them, one time my super told me to take him over a car. It had two small dents but the super only wrote up one, fix both, obviously, right? In true civil service fashion, body whiz only fixed the one he wrote up. The other dent was 6 inches away and untouched. No wonder they closed the position.
no greater teacher then experience...I honestly wondered where you learned this and gotta say that from your ability to explain everything so well, it does show you took the long hard road but that is what makes your workmanship so enjoyable to watch; but I also like your friendly candor and humble approach. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. gonna watch many others you have. 🙂
I just painted my first repair to my wife’s van! I give you some credit for my success, I didn’t have everything I really wanted for the job and I will still need to do some of the other panels but it turned out great! Thanks Brian!
man!! Looks awesome! Knowing how to pull off perfect jobs like this is what separates the good painters from the master painters. Also silver is so intimating for me lol came out great!
I appreciate that! Can’t wait until we get together again. Gotta get you down here
Yes, more collabs please!
Gary Wright for sure!
I agree I have a silver metallic Nissan, I’ve completed the job once before but I wasn’t happy so I sanded everything down and started again.
You must have a lot of confidence in your work to cut the blend right there! Great job, I love learning new things from other painters. The guy who taught me preferred to do it his own way and never took advice or new tips and tricks, which resulted in him getting into bad habits that he didn't know were bad. Luckily I had an open mind and used the lessons he taught me as a basis, and learned a lot more from guys like you who actually know why they do what they do, and not because "well that's how they told me how to do it". Complacency is what kills a good painter in this business.
I loved this comment so much that I read it 2-3 times. This is what it is all about. Being humble and able to learn from others. I always tell everyone just because I run paint society doesn’t mean I know everything. The cut off trick is pretty cool and and every trick has its place. Really appreciate you being a part of the channel!
@@PaintSociety hi Brian, nice job! I have a question, just curiosity: i need to paint just a part of the fender like you did in this video, but i already sanded the whole fender with 320 and 400 grit. What if i paint just the small part that needs paint and spray the rest with 2 layers of clear coat? let's call it a "cheap blend". What problems could i encounter after this kind of experiment?
@@BubiGTR you can do that except you will need to refine the unsealed unbasecoated area to 800 grit.
@@BubiGTRupdate? Did you scuff up the surrounding clear? What grit did you use. Blends usually fail if you don't do the whole panel with at least 2 thick coats
@@kenmastersmaster i failed big time :D i didn't blend, i painted everything with the new color, now i'm thinking about blending with the doors or repainting the whole car, because it's a mess
Great information on your videos brother!! I myself am self taught as well painting professionally on and off for the past 20+ years. Many little details you share that I did not know especially with newer technology out. They make a difference in our work being that much better and life a little more easier. Thank you!! Love the videos and keep em coming. From the middle of the great blue ocean!!
I literally started painting did two cars already. Your tutorials are amazing. Thanks a lot Man. Saved me a lot of money! Keep at the videos we will keep watching!
Great blend. it's been over 50 years since I worked in a body shop after 3 years of body work class in high school. I just needed a refresher on the paint and clear blend. Got it! Thanks!
Brian, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I am also a self taught painter out in Las Vegas. This video was fantastic, i just finished a job and it came out perfect, using this technique. I specialize in touch up and detailing. Your smart blend is awesome! Thank again
Al Fernandez
Thank god for the metallic blend videos. I’m doing my personal car at home I’m a auto mechanic not auto body/ painter. I’m using rattle cans filled with my paint code and 2 k rattle clear. Most definitely impressed with my blend after watching your video for. Week straight I built the confidence to pull the trigger and do it. Now I’m just nervously preparing myself to clear
Self taught. Your inner self was a great teacher Brian. I watch from Australia and although not in the trade just love learning things and you do it for me.
Appreciate all the advice and teaching what others won’t. Glad to support your channel my brother I’ve learned so much already and will continue to watch every single video!!
Great job blending that panel I really like the ideal of the blue sticky foam on top it totally makes sense and it looks like it’s way easier to get rid of any lines or anything at the top of the panel I was enjoy watching your magic thanks again Brian for all the tips great work🤙
Another great masterclass Brian. You have earnt the right to be confident in your work! The way that you teach us newbees is incredible, speaking without hesitation. Love also your fast motion sequences on the long winded bit. Great! Less boring than most. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Ron!
You are the kind of guy I would like to work with! This is perfection and even the paint room is clean, the first one I have ever seen in a paint shop, not like the usual Picasso all over the bench.
Thanks! What a compliment! I
Believe all things leading to a clean paint job start in the organization of the shop itself. Also I simply cannot function where things all
Over the place. When I grab something. I put it back. Simply put ♥️
The best blending job I have ever seen🙌
The thought process and ability to plan is what separates great from good .I watched quite a few videos last night and love your mindset and methodology. You know what you are doing and the confidence translates into the work .I love it .
Excellent
Appreciate those words! Every video gets a script created by myself in which I make sure I hit certain points.
Loved your backstory at the end. Thanks for passing on your knowledge, with emphasis on planning and prep.
Incredibly informative and love the way you blend this panel. I learned something new!! Thank you
You sir are a true maestro! I’m a painter and been watching you for a week and already learned new tricks and became better painter!! I salute you
Thank you so much Milton, keep coming back and I’ll have a lot more information for you on the channel!
Even though i only paint wheels, and eventually panels after i get my ticket, I am learning a lot from you. It's as if i'm the one who's painting. Thank you sir
Your Video's really help me ,first time working with base coat and clear got no idea what to do but after watching your video it helps alot thank you and keep them coming
You are so good and humble.Much respect ! I have learned something ,I didn’t know.💪
Thanks so much. I’m glad I come across as the person that I am.
I buy crash damage cars and have started doing all of my own metal work and paintwork, your videos always give me good tips. Keep up the work 👌👌
The best paint channel on RUclips!! I learned alot from your videos !! Keep it coming bro !! 👌🏽
Best video I've seen yet on blending!!!!!!!
Awesome stuff, as a self taught painter as well, trial and error, experience is invaluable. Talked to so many “trained” “schooled” painters in the past and its mind blowing on their outlook on a lot of the little circumstances and details. The one or two over the years that I ran into like yourself with more open mind and views I learned the most from and there’s always something or a different way to do things as you demonstrated here. Some thought I was nuts back in the day for not going into one or two more panels etc etc on repairs like this with silver... Auto painters like yourself are few and far in between man, so good at what you do yet you know and aren’t afraid to say it that when it comes to the chemistry of auto paint materials that it’s not always set in stone and doesn’t always go as planned. It’s been a while for me professionally but just about to do some personal work and it was refreshing to run into your vid 👍🏽. It makes me miss doing it regularly, kind of lol. Awesome stuff!
Thanks! That is exactly the reality of paint, never know what’s gonna happen which is exciting but not always at the same time ha ha. Thank you for your comment and I look forward to more comments from you on my videos!
I am a hobbyist. Enjoying your tutorials
Awesome instruction, loving watching you work!
MAN you make that look easy but like you said. Years of experiance. Thank you so much for shairing your hard erned knowlege. Very helpful tips and great video!
Thanks a million for making all of your vids! They are enlightening and so interesting! Love what you do, thanks!
you are no1
all your jobs are amazing
greetings from croatia!!!
Great video, plainly spoken with detail, doesn't get much better, thanks
More to come. Thanks!!!
Huge thanks from the uk on this one! just the video i needed to watch.I feel a lot more confident having a try now!...if at first you dont succeed......
Glad I stumbled on your channel. Thank you for explaining everything in detail. I learned alot from you already!
Welcome AL! Bunch of videos here and adding more
Wow you do really nice work I'm self taught and learning a lot from you thanks must respect to you God bless
That’s really interesting with the foam tape and the blending agent...very informative as always...I’m learning each time I watch one of your videos 🙏🏼
It’s a great tip!!
@@PaintSociety why did you spray again after pulling off the foam tape? It would seem to me that the remaining painters tape would create a hard edge. Just trying to learn! Thanks:)
@@aasdf285 THATS WHAT I’M CONFUSED ABOUT TOO, let me know if you figured it out
Thank you for your time to teaching me how to blend my own car.
Another excellent tutorial! THANK YOU VERY MUCH
I have tremendous respect for you! A pleasure to watch & learn from....
Thank you Joel!
kudos to you young man, self taught...much respect...
Thanks Brian,, excellent blending, job 💯
Words can't say how impressed I really am !!!! ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY INCREDIBLE JOB !!!
You sir are a fantastic craftsman I appreciate the videos keep up the great work good on you for sharing your knowledge happy days
That blue tape is slick Really good info , Smart repair is my interest
Watching all these videos non-stop learning a lot going to definitely help me get in the paint booth more at my job want to learn everything I can for any of these videos
So awesome to hear this!
Legendary. Btw, your FB page, is notorious for so called "experts" insulting, novices like me. Just like yourself, I am self taught and just began helping customers this past August. You should really watch what people on your FB page comment on especially novices.
Great job!...thanks for educating and sharing some nice tips to the public.
You got it! It’s what I love to do. I love to read comments like this !
this video is going to save me a lot of headache for when I do a few paint repairs to my 95 Chevy Beretta in some slightly tricky spots.
Love your channel and the new content lately.
Had many Beretta s, loved thoes cars. Had a white 1990 gtz with the 2.3 HO and 5 speed, a maroon one identical, both awesome unapreciated cars for thier time. I had another white one with a 3 speed auto 3.1 v6 which ran pretty good too. Sadly I know 2 of the 3 are in a junkyard now. The white gtz i sold to my neighbors kid who got rear ended by a girl texting at like 55mph right in front of my house. Destroyed that poor car, and it was mint before that happened.
@@codylapoint I actually just got a few blends done by my painter buddy....did pretty much the same techniques shown by paint society. The Beretta is definitely under appreciated but always a head turner. I'm enjoying restoring her.
great job man ! thank you for the tips ive been retired from painting 9 years and im just getting back into the buisness and these vedoes hrelp me a bunch
Thanks for watching !
That’s amazing work right there. We’re I work they want it done one way and that’s it. In that case I would have did my base blend then cleared the whole quarter panel, and I learned a lots from these vids.
Great blending tips , thanks for taking the time to do show us diy guys ...🖖👍👍👍
Awesome tutorial & I actually learned something. Big thanks !
Bodivision sent great work. Super informative love it!!!
MrElmono23 thanks for the comment! Stay tuned, I have some good DIY coming up!
Thank you for making me " more Confident " Knowledge is great.... you can give it to someone and Still keep it.
Best Regards,
M in FL
Very well put. I like that!
You a legend Mate , love Your work 😊
when you were taping that off, I was wondering how you were going to blend the paint and clear coat on that top edge. This turned out awesome, Brian! Thanks for sharing the knowledge and skills and techniques!
Great job budy
That's confidence
Beautiful work! Respect.
Excellent work as always! Better than new!
Very cool. Just painted my first car, a 1998 Cherokee and ready to practice blending on a newer 4 Runner.
How did it turn out ?
This video saved my world! Thanks a million Brian! Your a true prep and paint paint warrior and a brilliant teacher. A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Nice ,good,simple explanation all the best .Gretings from Serbia.
Welcome!!
Hey mate thanks for the wonderful information and the video quality is top shelf,keep up the great work and keep the awesome videos coming please thanks 👍🏻
Wow, very impressive. Wasn’t sure about that tape line transition. Killed it. 👍
It’s not recommended but in a pinch. It gets the job done and make for a cool video.
I like how you’re not working in the best environment meaning a temperature controlled down draft booth with a space suit and you make it happen. True badass work looks good standing still and even better flying down the freeway.👍
Thanks! Just regular cross draft but we make it work.
wow looks Perfect good job😀
awesome job man,hope one day i will be as good as you,started my first restoration on my daily/project car since it had panel that was badly prepped and painted and rust was coming trough so i managed to get it that is primed at this stage,experimented with some body filler and it looks good so far after 3 coats of 2k primer,some smal imperfections but after i sand it i still can use some putty.Great channel👍✌️👉
That's why you are the Master of the Master to cut the paint like that. 😉
Incredible,I’m an auto tech by trade but have always been fascinated by painting,I’m not advising you in any way,but the terms you use are hard to understand as a beginner learning,but I truly enjoy watching you,maybe some day I’ll understand what you are saying :)
Awesome!
I like the way you teach
Great blend 🎉
Great work brother, your videos really help me.
I use a w400 for clear blends for the same reason. The atomization is so fine. Its perfect for burn ins
Good stuff my man. Thank you for sharing this valuable information!
Thanks you're something like a paint God, thanks again.
Great job yourself and bode are very much appreciated thanks for the tips
Miguel Valle that’s what it’s all about! Learning and applying. I love it!
If at any time it’s available and you have the chance I’ve had a project in mind. What steps to take on adding a clear coat over a finished factory finish?? Again that’s for your videos!!!
Repect mate,cracking work,love watching these vids
Thanks for the info I appreciate what you have helped me with!!!
That’s amazing!! Great job!
Thank you!
Awesome job you must be so proud to be so good not even attempt school that is insane.
Thank you wonderful video Sir. Look forward learning more !!
Really beautiful job thanks man
Great job uncle B
LOL at 1:00ish "And I think we'll be....just fine" looks off to the side quick. 😄
loads of info and great vid cheers
Awesome video and repair brother!
Thanks Robby!
Great job!
I did enjoy it I am learning to paint
Nice work man professional ??? Learning alot......
Well explained clean job thank you mate keep up the good work
Thank you!
In Germany We do it just very simple, you apply just 2x paint only at that spot and the 3rd time you just Fog the Area, the Fog is going to blend the new paint with the old paint let it dry and apply the clear coat
We never had any issue and it’s very simple method
Sush a genius. Best RUclips video
Thanks!
Dear Brian
I am watching your videos when i have time and I have learnt a lot from your videos.
One thing that catch my attention is that your videos are all about paint, re-paint, coating..etc against to entire panel.
So, Please make a video about Paint or Re-Paint size of a cell phone in any panel.
How can we fix small area and blend/match to rest of panel, Instead of re-paint entire panel for area of dime.
This video definitely will help a lot.
Please keep up good works.
this might help me out this week.
Great job 👍👍👍
Nice work
Great job an actual real pro
