@AHC Garage Greetings from Poland❤❤❤❤❤
For an autobody guy, you sure are a humble dude. The average DIY'er should know that you're making this look a lot easier than it actually is. Nice work with those products.
Much appreciate it
How about a video that explains "flash times" with each layer of primer, paint and clear.
How long did you guys let the base/duplicolor flash before clearing?
You need to protect your eyes and ears when spraying 2k. This stuff is mega toxic. Go with a full-face respirator, isocyanates are nothing to mess around with.
It actually looks good with stock Acura TL rims!
Agreed!!
How long did you allow the last color coat to dry before applying the 2k clear? I have heard to wait a week for the lacquer to gas off, other sites say do wet on wet. What do you think is best?
Dang... that’s a hell of a job for $50 👌🏽
Yes sir
Impressive results 😀👍
Right on!!
Lacquer paint has always been known for cracking after uv exposure....does the 2k clear help that at all ?? This fender came out amazing
It would have been nice to know how many cans of each product was used and how much time in between each coat.
Been so tempted to spray my own car this video was so informative
Thanks for your support
Support is key 🔑
Practice ...
one thing to remember about this brand of paint...it is lacquer. Don't EVER let lacquer thinner near this paint job in the future. Thinner will wash it off, no sanding necessary ....just bub it a little. Why this company doesn't use a different paint type is beyond me...I'll never use it on a car again but I will use it on guitar bodies if I can't get something else.....
You talked me into it!
Right on!!
New to the channel, thanks to HSG
Welcome to our channel 👍🏼
Straight to the point. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
Which green was that from their list of greens?
top, very instructive to use for my volvo 240 👍🏼thanks
Do you have a video of doing a hood ? Maybe a black one ?
Great video! Ahc!!
Yayy!!!!
Nice work! How long did you wait between coats for the clear coat and how many coats did you lay down?
We waited 15 minutes between base coats. 30 minutes between base and clear. We sprayed 3 coats of clear with 5-7 minutes between coats
Gotta do this to a 98’ Honda Civic. Can’t look worse than it already does.
Take your time and give it a try
Does that clear coat work with plastic? 🤔
How long is the wait after each coat of base and before applying the 2k clear? Did you spray on the 2k after the base was completely dry? Also could I do a wet sand or sanding of the base coat if I happen to have any imperfections prior to applying the 2k? TIA
How many cans of base did you guys use per fender ?! I really want to paint my entire 3rd camaro with the Dupli GM medium green
Nice video Have there been any problems with 2k clear over duplicolor now that its been awhile since you did this job?
Not at all. Paint held up nice
I see you guys mentioned not doing a whole car like this, but do you think it would be a good alternative to spray a whole car like this? Thank you!
If you do it, recommend to do a section at a time
This works with 2k clear out of a gun as well? High solids urethane clear to be specific?
No buff/polish on final clear? I’ve used 2k before but had to polish as it left tons of orange peel.
In a control environment, a light buff did exactly what needed
Thinking about doing the roof with this method. How many cans would you use? Thanks
2-3 cans
On 3rd and 4th basecoat. Did you stay in trigger or feather?
Ok so i just watched the whole video and the job u did looks amazing. I just wanted to know, if I decided to do something like this at home, what's a good temperature to paint at and how long should I wait between coats, between the primer and base coat and base coat to clear?
Great questions. Try and paint in 75-85 degrees for best results. Allow your primer to dry for a hour. When you spray the Basecoat, allow ten minutes between coats. Allow the basecoat to dry for 30 minutes before clear coat. When you clear allow 5-7 minutes between coats. Good luck with your project.
@@ahcgarage thank u very much for ur advice. Now before I spray the base coat do I need to wet sand the primer before spraying the base coat ? And same for before spraying the clear. Do I need to wet sand the base coat before spraying the clear?
@@ahcgarage Thia answer is very good information !.. I have motorcycle fenders in excellent condition. Just doing color change. You scuffed surface and degreased surface before spraying filler primer. Im thinking light sand with 600 to break own clear coat on parts, then following your directions.. Is that good ?
WOW ! I would have given you at least $400 just for the hood of my SUV. Great Job. Also, why can't you just take the hood off and spray it?
Thanks for the informative vid Brian and Mike! Is that a metallic base color? Do you have any tips for getting good results with rattle can metallics? Technique seems to be much for crucial for a good finish. Thanks
It is. Shake well, really well is a great start. And technique is the core also. If you follow Brian's instruction on the video, you will do ok.
Thanks. I’ve been trying a combination of rolling the ball in the lower groove and shaking for at least 2 minutes before spraying, plus more shaking every 30s or so. What’s your opinion on warming the can before hand?
Michael Christopher yes you can. That will actually help make the paint more liquidly and the paint will be smoother. Also try to paint when the temperature is not as hott. 70s if you can
Many thanks I’ll try that on the next go and will study your technique some more. The learning really doesn’t stop after the video ends 🤓
I’m prepping to paint my brake calipers what clear coat do you guys recommend. (Rattle can of course)
A high temperature clearcoat works great on brake calipers. We will be doing a complete DIY video on refinishing the front Brembo calipers
Acura Honda Classic okay thanks that’s what I had thought but is there a better choice than the auto zone high temp clear?
tried using dupli color (nighthawk black pearl ) and im getting tons of mottling :(
Great video! I have a 2018 Ford F-150 and I had a battery fall over while sitting on the passenger seat floor and it ate away some paint on the bottom of my door jamb and also on the inside bottom of the door as well. I was thinking of painting it myself since none if it will be visible from the outside. I want to paint and put a clear coat on it to protect it. My truck is aluminum, is there a special process to painting aluminum?
Thanks
Hi, since it is only the paint that is affected, you can prepare the surface in the same manner as you would a regular panel which includes sanding and leveling the damaged areas, primering and painting.
Please help. I have applied duplicolor perfect match and it looks great. But I cannot clear coat do to weather that moved in. If I give it a light 800 sand, and clear 4 days later. What clear coat should I use? (duplicolor, eastwood 1K or 2K) thank you in advance. How much would be needed for a car roof? 1973 dart.
Thanks for this Video now I'm confident to paint my front a spec lip for my Acura TSX thanks for the content love your Channel from New Castle Delaware
Thanks so much for your support
So was this factory primed? Don't you need an adhesion promoter for raw plastic before the primer?
What if the hood of my car already has the factory primer and black base coat but the clear coat has no shine anymore can I just use Eastwood 2K to give it that shine again. ? Please respond back because I just got my Eastwood 2k clear in the mail today and I need advice. The clear coat isn't peeling it's just very flat and dull
Eastwood clear cost no longer available Amazon, got another link?
Here's another great alternative:

Excellent Video ! thanks. I'm wondering what did you do after the 2nd coat of primer? did you use a clay bar? see minute 7:23 to 7: 33
Thanks
Wet sand with aeound 600 grit.
Do you go with stock caps on these cans or replace them with fat caps?
Is it better to paint the fender on or off the body? I bought a replacement one and was wondering if it has to be on the body first or could I paint it off then install it.
What's the color code on that can??
I'm undecided in a dark green color
Hey is that medium green metallic?
I swap the internal manual 3rd gen tl type s from the 04-06 tl tran , but the 4th gear pops out , will that cause by the wrong detent spring on 4 th gear?
Popping out of gear on manual transmission most likely to be a bad synchro gear set or bent shift folk.
How many cans of the duplicolor did you end up using?
2 cans of paint and clear
Hi is the Eastwood 2k clear coat better than the spray max clear .
They are very similar
The reason I asked is I'm going to paint my Harley frame and I was wondering which would be the best gloss coat .In other videos looks like the Eastwood clear is more glossy than the spray max but I'm not sure if it was just the video lighting
Could someone reply to this comment with the paint code of that green color please ?
I’d greatly appreciate it. God bless ☝️
My experience with this paint was not the same. It went on nice but after following all the steps and spending a lot more $ the paint peeled. This crap is $12 for a 12oz can. No idea why it peeled but I removed it with Scotch masking tape, cleaned, light sand of the primer, and resprayed with a different brand of paint. One that actually stuck.
what brand did you use instead
which layers separated?
Poor prep work
Paint code
Where u get thay spray at
Your local parts store and Eastwood
Oriley’s
I don't get it...is this bootleg paint society?
Ha!
Video starts at 8:30...thank me later
