    This guy is like a machine! For people that have not worked in a production collision repair environment, try to imagine a shop full of guys like this all cranking out job after job. This is impressive stuff.

    You certainly know how to plan your day Kandy Man which is essential when you are in a fast moving production shop, you never look like you are rushed of your feet or panicking but you get a lot done which just shows you are a true professional.
    When I last worked I was a vacuum, injection moulder and a laminator making the outer panels for MRI Scanners, I was paid for each part I made as they were all priced up for the workers, I used to take my breaks around my work making the best use of my time, it was a well paid and interesting job but these days I don't work so just do a bit here and there in my own workshop and booth😎👍John UK

    I’m getting ready to paint my 71 el Camino and I’ve watched a lot of your videos to learn how a professional would do it 👍 I’m finish sanding it right now so I’m almost ready to spray I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.

      About 2 month ago there was a big thing going on…. Since then “no one” drinks bud light anymore and “no one” shops target anymore ….. at least no hard working, upstanding, christian or conservative people.
      Seeing your entire video start to finish, you are working a lot and have not much time to follow all this stuff ….
      Here is the quick summary;
      Target made “tuckable” or “tuck friendly” swimsuits for 3-6 year old trans kids and for about a week at them front and center in the store …. They satanist designer of this swimwear was all proud to make all the kids trans, destroy families and society …. So a lot of people stopped shopping at target all together …..
      So no worries, it was just a smart ass comment on my end, dont take it personal, thanks for asking rather then just deleting my comment.
