I’m 64 years old,painted in a production body shop for 36 years. Overall with what you had to work with. And knowing up front what you will have at the end. Damn good job. I wish I could spend a few hours with you and show you some easy tricks. I admire you guys tackling your own paint work. Using a body shop has just gotten stupid expensive.
Jayz1996 199x Wash and degrease first. Maybe a red pad and Dawn or Simple Green. Moderate temperatures. Thin to win. Tack your surfaces before you spray. And gun control. ( don’t stir up any dust by pointing the gun away from your target. ) practice and more practice. Start small before tackling a big job. You can do it. Mixing ratios are real important
@@johnny1time218 Thanka brother I never done it but ill try my best, I'm 19 & the truck was given to me I want to tint the windows, Lift it with bigger Tires, But most importantly Paint it myself Its red but the color is faded, Ill paint it red but a darker shade
I’m 59, I have a higher end HVLP Gun. Painted a few cars. You are a Pro. I fully enjoy watching your Videos. They prove: Practice makes Perfect. When I go in to a Home Improvement Store “Menards” and see a young dude with 10 or more Rustoleum Spray Cans, I give him a Thumbs Up. Keep it up and Thanks for the time you spend putting it all on YT
This is the exact video I needed. Got an older ranger that is literally perfect for a spray can paint job. From my research the prep and sand down is really essential to a quality finish at the end.
Spray cans are pretty cheap for small projects, but for bigger ones there is a turning point when the cost for all those rattlecans adds up and investing in a spray gun becomes an option. The trick with rattlecans is to get em cozy warm(not hot) and spray a million light coats. If you want a perfect job you can let paint dry and use very fine sandpaper to even out orange peel etc after a few layers before new thin layers. Finish off your color coating with some decent 2k clear coat, let that dry for a good couple of days and then fine sand and polish. With a lot of effort, you can even make diy spraying look great.
For bigger projects they have those Turbo cans, they’re like tall boy spray cans, more pressurized and has a fan tip with 4 feet of cover. It’s still not as great as a spray gun, but you can’t lose with how good of quality the turbo cans are and it’s so convenient!!
Very Nice & that's coming from a professional painter. An old bed sheet works wonders for overspray, also they sell spray can trigger adaptors to save your sore fingers lol. Looks great man Nice work👍👍 Congratulations You have just been nominated the Earl Sheib Jr Award 🏆
It’s just easier to cover everything you don’t want overspray on rather than cleaning later and remove badges. Less work in the long run. Surprisingly better than I expected. From London, uk
Not bad at all, good job bro, I'm also doing the paint with a can, I have no garage but Lord knows I have practice, I usually spend about 95% prep 5% paint
Looks GREAT!!! I painted a 1977 Chevy 3/4 ton a few years ago. I painted it dark forest green. The wood bed? I painted it, dark mahagony brown. I used the Rust-Oleum brand, too. It "CAN" be done!!! Ha haaaaahhh ha!!!🧴💨🚙
Great video only thing is I personally would of covered the windows and roof would be easier but great job it looks good. Where can I get paint with primer and clear coat all in one like yours?
I did my jeep and it turned out great it's been a year but I have a question does it hold up pretty good with with out clear coat don't fade any because I used clear and spent a lot more just wonder how it hold up with out clear thanks
I see you didn't get an answer here but how is your Jeep finish holding up to the elements?...thinking of using this for my Jeep truck ...or maybe roll it on
Exactly, all these people saying it's no where near a professional paint job and it's literally garbage need to go figure out how to paint in general, it's paint, once it's on it ain't comin off lmao
Order you some fan tip caps! It’ll save you time and paint by giving you a gun-like fan... and like another commenter said, get the adapter handle so your 1 finger isn’t doing all the work
Personally I think it looks okay, although you should have put primer down for a start, then do two coats of orange and finish it off with 1 coat of clear coat, sand that coat and then spray another coat of clear. because then you get and even shine and a quality job. Enjoyed the video though, thanks.
Hello spray can master! I'm going through and watching some of your videos cuz I'm getting ready to paint my Honda Accord and I found this video and I thought man that was a lot of work painting that hood I would to had to take a hr break after that😂 amazing work!
Did spray can jobs back in the 70's and nobody knew the difference...wanting to try Rustoleum on a school bus I have parked in the back of my home someday
well first of all thank you for your vids , i have seen mostly all and they are very helpful, and successfully painted my wheels for 8$ and they look great 👍
js future reference never start on the outside of the car work and work your way in always start in the middle and work your way out so you not leaning on fresh paint
I didnt lean on any of it but i did get close. I usually never have that issue of even coming close but this thing was a freaking BOAT! Honda's are usually only 7-8 cans this thing took DOUBLE and was alot longer. The way i have been doing it has worked out perfect never once leaned into the paint before but its a good idea to start on hood and work around the car but with spray can you cant do that too well because paint dries too fast so when you go from fender to door you have to keep going from door to 1/4 panel and so on. But with gun i always start hood first work around to the other side and finish hood on the other side spray can is too fast drying or i would do it that way you said. But thanks for the advice
Ya I was gonna say this isn't usually a big deal on most modern cars where you don't have to lay across the hood to get to the middle but on these older bigger cars it can be
Several questions, no judgment... Why not paint hood or roof first and not worry about bumping fence or door? Why not put newspapers on window bumper and wheels to not worry about overspray? Same with inside the doors when you opened them? Maybe it's just me but I'd rather cover up than clean up.
You will cool 😎 man I am going to paint my truck the top and the hood hope I do a good job this be my first time I am 66 years old you do a beautiful job
Why didn't you just cover the windows with plastic? then you could skip the step where you have to scrub your windows with steel wool to get the paint off
I have a question... I have only my roof and hood to spray, how would you go about doing that? As far as tape and prep, should I remove the hood and spray it while hanging?
I'd recommend keeping it on the car, taking it off would mean setting it on a trestle and restrict a lot of access for painting. If it's still on the car, mask everywhere you are not wanting to paint. Do the top first, then release and open it that way you are not touching the new paint. Hope this helps!
Thats really good. I did a door on an old car I had. Did it with a gun. First time using, Orange peel all over. haha. Dont have the car anymore. Miss it though.
Cool. Yeah I got some tips on how to fix it. But i wasn't too worried about it. I was going to take it in for a professional job. The only paint jobs I do now are on my beach cruser every summer different color to change it up. Or on my AR 500 steel plates haha
I tryed it 4 times and I never got the shine I was looking for with the 2k clear coat. The clear coat does not glow no where near what you see on youtube videos. I dint have any runs dirt or runs. I tried painting a hood for my civic. The clear coat is looks nothing like the gloss on the gloss on the original paint runs and squirts. Will never be my problem is just the gloss. Could this be becuase I only used one can? Not sure if the rain washed the paint away the next day or what happened
I have a can of black same type as yours next to me. Its paint and primer. Still need a clear coat my friend. Looks nice tho. Gonna turn it into the Cheeto Mobile?
ok that was awsome vid, what kills me is that you made it look so easy to do it. i tried to do it with a flat black paint and still i saw the paint lines. but that was my first painting with rattle cans. hahahaha. now i have to keep this vid and go back and watch it again. I have a truck that i am about to take the motor out and paint my engine bay under carriage and body so i have to try this for my self. Now i would like to know how long does the paint stay before it would start to fade out if it fades out?
Riden Roam I haven't had any of my paint jobs Done with rustoleum fade out. Its always krylon without clear coat that flakes but rustoleum don't flake and it even has a clear and hardener in the paint to dry pretty quick and clear. Unless ur going satin then it dries with a satin clear in it
That orange is bad ass. I was thinking of respraying my already white car with white to keep it simple but that orange reminds me of dukes of hazzard so now idk what to do
Ah man, you and me both! I'm still having issues with the lights, and I haven't figured out if it's overheating or not, since my pillar gauges aren't working. Working two jobs, being in two bands, and being in a relationship with a kid leaves me with no free time to ever work on it. :/
SkylerVahidy Sold the ef hatch years ago due to ex girlfriend kicking me and my daughter out on to the streets and my family conveniently didn't have room for me so i was forced to sell it
David Munoz well I cut the guy a deal I did 200$ some jobs can pay up to 400$ but people around here charge 2k for a spray job outta their garage with a gun so doing it out of can is a wow factor already then making it affordable is even better
@@JamesDguy that's cool to hear, ya around here you get a killer high end paint job for 2 to 3k from personal jobs outta their garages that are well worth it, but for the kids with their Mc Donald's money (pay checks) and their first car type of deal $400 is cool for the work you put into it, work smarter not harder and like you said it's a Win Win. Peace my Friend
So I’ll admit, I thought this would turn out looking like garbage... and I was wrong. It looks surprisingly very good. And you just did the one coat?? And no clear coat at all??
You know when it was in the garage it was looking good then when you switched over to the car wash I was thinking, "dam... That thing looks like shit... Idk what it was it just looked old and beat up with a shiny paint job (what's the ol'saying, "you can put a pig in a new wig, but it's still just a pig"lol..) but even the orange looked faded but new and shiny, and then you showed the after picture and it looked like I was hoping it would specially for a Rust-Oleum rattlecan paint job with no clear coat except for the clear that's added to the paint in the rattlecan. GOOD JOB HOMIE THAT DON'T KNOW ME!
I’m really tempted to do this on my 1999 honda civic coupe but was wondering if it needs to be sanded since about half the car still has the old paint. And if i do need to sand it, which grits do i need and how many coats of this an 2x clear will i need? And also will i need to wet sand and buff it afterwards?
I just spray painted my cars hood. It's also a 99 civic coupe black. I got it not so long ago. The hood needed paint so i got two cans of black glossy and used both. I also got 2 cans of 2x clear and used both. Now i will let it cured for 24 hours and i plan on wet sanding it and buffing it. Wish me luck lol might upload a small clip when im done
Before you give it a thumbs down and just go about your business watch to the very end cuz maybe you'll see the difference that I seen cuz I was about to bounce and thought it looked like crap but then I got to see what it really looked like at the very end, so advice for people doing these type of videos try and tell your audience to wait tell the very end before giving you a thumbs down, like myself I think people get in a hurry and don't watch videos that we believe are dragging out for way too long and ship through and or over stuff sometimes
I would like to see you do this is a different color - softer color. I have a problem with the color and the accent of the car. They just dont blend well. Iv personally done black cars and white cars and have them come out looking good but loud colors like these always look bad to me.... Fun trick - after you tape your trim and all that good stuff. The areas you dont wanna tape such as ( Windows and vinal top) give a coat of wd40 or such. The over spy will literally wipe away. If your spraying the rag top or vinal with wd40 bothers you - you can always use elephant wax.... But wd40 will not hurt athing. Good job friend

Caprice Classic my favorite old-school
100%..
Great video, its amazing that the paint in todays prices have tripled
You definitely know what you’re talking about. I like what you said about shooting it with clear.
Would adding clear coats to this spray paint prevent it from fading or chipping ?
It does yes.
Did spray can jobs back in the 70's and nobody knew the difference...wanting to try Rustoleum on a school bus I have parked in the back of my home someday
Do you have any tips for a well-done spray can
What brand of spray paint are you supposed to use for this?
Have you ever tried the pistol grip for spray cans or maybe you don’t get the same control great video thanks for sharing.
well first of all thank you for your vids , i have seen mostly all and they are very helpful, and successfully painted my wheels for 8$ and they look great

Looks good for what u had to work with. But why the back right door open while spraying?
He didn't cover the bumper lol, tires or windows
would to know how long this type of paint job stays looking good.
man he has gotten a lot better in the last 6 years
2016 being 6 years ago makes me feel old...

Wow dude! Great job man 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽. I definitely have to get some practice in before I think about something like this lol.
how hard is it to keep clean ... can you wash and wax that ..... great job
mike morlock the guy waxes it all the time and It looks great
5 years later, do you still do the same methods and use the same type of paint?
I have a question... I have only my roof and hood to spray, how would you go about doing that? As far as tape and prep, should I remove the hood and spray it while hanging?
I'd recommend keeping it on the car, taking it off would mean setting it on a trestle and restrict a lot of access for painting.

great job, next time be careful touching the car in spots before you paint. your just putting your oils under the Paint
Thats really good. I did a door on an old car I had. Did it with a gun. First time using, Orange peel all over. haha. Dont have the car anymore. Miss it though.
MrLSalazar714 nice! good thing is i didn't have orange peel with can but on the gun I've figured out how to make it not orange peel bad
Cool. Yeah I got some tips on how to fix it. But i wasn't too worried about it. I was going to take it in for a professional job. The only paint jobs I do now are on my beach cruser every summer different color to change it up. Or on my AR 500 steel plates haha
after 7 years, it still good condition or peel or crack or something?
Would putting a clear coat on top of this be good
Did your finger get tired , try an attachment for the can so your pulling on the spray handle not pushing with your finger
According to published date made 4 years ago; how the paint condition now? Still shiny?
I tryed it 4 times and I never got the shine I was looking for with the 2k clear coat. The clear coat does not glow no where near what you see on youtube videos. I dint have any runs dirt or runs.

Not sure if the rain washed the paint away the next day or what happened
Looks like u make a thick coat at once...so the paint can self leveling...am i right?
yeah i believe that's why he did it that way
Damn that turned out good. Nice video!
Put a 01 on the doors an the x on top
Depends on the X... there are a lot of snowflakes out there now.
I have a can of black same type as yours next to me. Its paint and primer. Still need a clear coat my friend. Looks nice tho. Gonna turn it into the Cheeto Mobile?
Great vid. I like you work and video style but... that colour is a Crime on a classic chevy. lol
So much easier to tape than to scrape and wipe of overspray.
I love this beat you used.
ok that was awsome vid, what kills me is that you made it look so easy to do it. i tried to do it with a flat black paint and still i saw the paint lines. but that was my first painting with rattle cans. hahahaha. now i have to keep this vid and go back and watch it again.

Riden Roam I haven't had any of my paint jobs Done with rustoleum fade out. Its always krylon without clear coat that flakes but rustoleum don't flake and it even has a clear and hardener in the paint to dry pretty quick and clear. Unless ur going satin then it dries with a satin clear in it
carshatter I never have but it's only because I don't have a buffer yet. it's works though i know people have done that.
Matte black is hard to do no matter what. Or any matte for the matter.
That's right I agree
thanks Ryan and James for the update. on the matte black.
U should cover areas where u dont want paint :) preperation Is 50%. But good job :)
That orange is bad ass. I was thinking of respraying my already white car with white to keep it simple but that orange reminds me of dukes of hazzard so now idk what to do
This makes me want a side car just to paint. haha Sweet video man!

Can you spray without standing out the car?
Nice job 👍. JR in 🇨🇦

Awesome spray-can action as always man, that Rust-Oleum 2x is some nice material; colors really pop too.
yes for sure and thanks!
what do you think of using caliper sprays on car?
So I’ll admit, I thought this would turn out looking like garbage... and I was wrong. It looks surprisingly very good. And you just did the one coat?? And no clear coat at all??
In other replies he said he did 2 coats of paint and no clear, customer couldnt afford clear
Love it!!!
You know when it was in the garage it was looking good then when you switched over to the car wash I was thinking, "dam... That thing looks like shit...

What no clear or sanding or polishing it looks great.
You do a good job.

Before you give it a thumbs down and just go about your business watch to the very end cuz maybe you'll see the difference that I seen cuz I was about to bounce and thought it looked like crap but then I got to see what it really looked like at the very end, so advice for people doing these type of videos try and tell your audience to wait tell the very end before giving you a thumbs down, like myself I think people get in a hurry and don't watch videos that we believe are dragging out for way too long and ship through and or over stuff sometimes
Great job bro keep going
Always use 2 coats
Can you recommend a decent respirator mask that isn’t a fortune?
Go to harbor freight I picked up one for $17.99 . Great deal.
I would like to see you do this is a different color - softer color. I have a problem with the color and the accent of the car. They just dont blend well. Iv personally done black cars and white cars and have them come out looking good but loud colors like these always look bad to me.... Fun trick - after you tape your trim and all that good stuff. The areas you dont wanna tape such as ( Windows and vinal top) give a coat of wd40 or such. The over spy will literally wipe away. If your spraying the rag top or vinal with wd40 bothers you - you can always use elephant wax.... But wd40 will not hurt athing. Good job friend
