Loved the video and I only use MCW paint on my cars. However when I spoke with the owner and maker of this paint for advice after I screwed up my first try he told me that after a 50/50 mix with hardware store lacquer thinner that I should and I quote, “No need to mist or layer this paint. Just hose it on.” This is what I do and it works perfectly.
Thanks Donald, I had visited Mike at MCW when he was in Ohio, he give me a tour of his shop, and told me the same, just hose it on, My current airbrush has a .03mm needled and found the light passes works with that one, I have a .05 in a VL Paasha brush and that will spay some paint, I need a different hose adaptor to run it.. After learning the MCW paints, have been my go to.. Thanks for tuning in, Have a great one!
Hey in all your painting videos, I never seen you use a filter when mixing and pouring your paint in your guns or cups when mixing and pouring your paint/ primer?
ok, as you were talking about one more coat, I was thinking .... I've heard a couple of model builders say they do seven coats of paint, with wet sanding. I don't know what they consider to be one coat. How many coats would you say you have on this Pontiac, so far?
Hey Ray, my last coat is one too two passes, last one is a heavy coat, total probably have 4 to 5, I spray it on light so it takes a-lot of coats to cover, or I will keep going till satisfied with the results, most time it will depend on the color. I think it depends on if its lacquers or enamels? Have a good one Ray!
Kreg - excellent! I really enjoyed this series. FWIW - I also appreciate your 'style'. I like your intro and wrap-ups - it gives your videos a nice personal touch. Also, the attention to detail of what tools and supplies you are using is very much appreciated. The supplier logos and part numbers is a step above - I like it! If you haven't done so yet - I would watch part 4. I'm curious to see how this paint works AFTER the first coat is all cured and sanded. Thanks again!
Thanks Kevin, really appreciate it! I try to include items used to help others in the hobby, I always get a-lot of questions about numerus things of that I used. I like using the logos and such I think its a nice touch also, always trying to improve my editing skills lol, and come up with something to keep people more engaged. I'm working on video 4 now probably be posted in a day or so.. Thanks again Kevin, really appreciate the comment, Have a good one!
HEY-DAR 👊😎👍: That paint lays down so fricken nice, it almost makes me want to stop piss-canning (ALMOST) are you going to go over those areas with panel liner again? I sense a LIKE coming soon. Watch You Later, (MODEL CAR😎MAN CAVE)
Just found you here on You Tube and subscribed. I really like that dehydrator. You probably got it from Amazon. What brand and model is it? I’d really like to get one. Thanks.

Thanks Phil, just finished another round last night,,,
That orange is awesome.

Great video that’s a nice looking paint job 👍🏻
My biggest challenge is the constant dust particles no matter how much I clean and prep. It always haunts my finished paint job.
Have you tried using an automotive tack rag?
I think it looks awesome. Whoever wins this car is going to have a show car. Thanks Kreg
Thanks Sam, I just hope whom ever gets it were not at the same model show , do not want to compete with it lol..

It was like grass grow, but what a great result. Good luck on the next coat. Sometimes when I do that I end up regretting it awesome video!
Acrylic paint or lacquer

That turned out prety good! Thanks for the panel line tip. Can't wait to try it next time I paint a body!

As always, excellent work. You have really improved your paint and body game. It’s easy to see that you strive for great results.
Thanks Paul, Really appreciate it! Been trying different things to see what works best, always looking for that killer shine lol

Awesome paint job! Thanks for the helpful tips.
GTO looks awesome 👍😎
Thanks Nice, my first time building this, would like to pick up another and do in black..
Very nice 😂spraying😊
+1 to wet sand and hit it again ;)
Yes sir lol, one more time!
Great build.
What is that black block with holes that you put your wood alligator clamps in?
Thanks, I buy them at Hobby Lobby in the model car/paint section, I think there under ten bucks, I have a few of them now, there a must have!
How much air pressure you using when spraying???
I run 18 to 19 psi for most of my paints, for me found anything lower the paint doesn't lay as smooth..
