I like this guy cause he shows you how to do all this stuff without fancy expensive shop tools. Everything he shows are things you can do in your garage
I find the dual action polisher to be fancy, but it did boot my confidence level...
Not to mention, he's showing us how to do fancy shop work!
I second that
Rattle can not even wet sanded buffed or polished. Were all beginners at first
Very informative
Your comment about cure time for 2k clear is gold. I just cleared a hood with Spray Max 2k Gloss and tried to wet sand and buff after 24 hours and couldn't figure out where all the damn scratches came from. I'm leaving it alone for a week and trying again but first, I need more beer.
How can a man be so dry in the way he talks but still be entertaining.
Foreign accent...
I love this guy
Elbow grease
Ray romano
The accent lmao and hes actually informative
I like how you showed how it looks without polishing. Very nice video
After you chugged the alcohol I was expecting you to start sanding the windows
I remember my first beer...
Quintan Neville 😂🤣😂🤘🏻
no sand .use clay.lol
@@QuintanNeville That's so funny, the last time I heard that I fell off my dinosaur!
I have spent months studying painting with a spray gun and discovered a fantastic resource at Magic Painter Method (google it if you are interested)
that old truck is lucky to receive that level of love, looks miles better after your repair👍
You are the best teacher for auto painting on youtube. To the point with the right amount of humor. I used your expertise to eliminate failed clear coating, then painted and recoated my black truck fender flares using rattle can K-2 products. They turned out well. After about 9 days, I will refresh myself with your eliminating orange peel video and get it sanded and buffed pretty. Thanks. I would have never tried this, but somehow you made it simple enough to attemp.
"If you use these crappy clear coats.." (holds up the exact one I just sprayed) (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
crisismcnoodle should've done your research lol
Hahahahah r.i.p
Me: 😳can in hand.
:)))) Hahaha
I like that used Honey Jack reflection to show the clear coat!!
some say he's still polishing to this day
LOL
Hahaha 😂
I cannot stand DIY videos where some, I know it all, (who has no real clue) tries to show you how he/she is an expert...BUT...you my friend are not only a great DIYer but fantastic with real world instructions. Keep the videos coming. Thanks again...good stuff.
Dude, honestly, you're the best. Always great info, I love your educational breakdowns, great editing, entertaining and funny. Great job. I really appreciate all your hard work.
Thank you thank you.
You truly deserve a medal for this very series, especially for pointing out all the mystical secrets and any nasty traps in technique too.
(Where to buy Elbow Grease?!?! Ha ha ha ha ha...)
Very thorough, very detailed. Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for to step up my work. Needed to know how to wet sand and buff polish after clear coat.
I enjoyed hearing some of Carmen also!
I think I need some elbow grease fluid
Thanks for sharing great detailed video. Your knowledge of automotive is rock! Keep the nice work up.
Thanks for the film. This is exactly what I need having painted and clear coated the peeling front fender of my old 4Runner. Now I’m going to wait a few weeks and finish it off as you’ve shown. You gave a good demo and a good job with the beer too
7:53 I don’t wanna risk burning it, especially not on camera😂 I feel you 😂😂😂
I like how dude has a sense of humor. Promotes alcohol consumption while working on the car. Best of all. Doesn't hound people to like and subscribe. Which oddly convinced me to like and subscribe.
Thanks for the very detailed explanation of the process . I just picked up the Griot's Garage Random Orbital Polisher kit at my local Auto Zone and now I not only know how to use it but understand how and why to use it ! Great video !
What I like about these videos (apart from the fact that this guy is an expert) is that he is actually teaching you how to do things right. He knows there's people who would like to learn about this stuff and he takes the time to explain everything to the smallest detail. He doesn't like "cheap and fast" solutions so he uses the proper material and tools, as much as you need, he tells you how to use them and he tells you why he is using them. Awesome channel.
@Womb Raider or perk them up and keep em
Nicely done video. I liked the beginning where you showed the different stages of raw metal to primed, then base coat, then clear cut. Now I know the procedure. Wet Sand. Polish. Take a drink. Wet sand. Polish. Take a drink.. repeat as needed. Thanks for your great sense of humor
Dude this guy is hilarious, I cant believe it took me this long to start following this guy. Subscribed!
Very informative/helpful...and entertaining too. You're a good instructor keeping it simple. Thank you.
This is the best explanation of why clear coat has orange peel I have ever seen. Nice job!
Thanks for helping me find the ingredients for the “elbow grease”
Well being black. It is the hardest to get perfect. I seen pros take 2 weeks to get it perfect.... And they have paint booths and all the right stuff to do it....
Great results from rattle cans,.
I've used two highly rated body shops and I'd have been better off keeping the rock chips I touched up myself, let alone the repainting I'm going to have to do. The second shop had the audacity to tell me black is hard to work with, when they knew going into it I kept my truck pristine. Oh well.
Very nice job. It's honestly better than I expected, for spray cans..... Very nice. Now, where did I leave that Corona Light???? No wonder I have no elbow grease....
Greetings from Straya! Nice work man! Always admired the 'stuff' that come out of So Cal-thanks for taking the time to pass the techniques on!
Thanks man I just ordered a new bumper and a 5 pc mesh grill kit for my 2000 gt eclipse I feel a lot better having a good detailed guide line I'm more confident that its gonna come out great ❤
Awesome. Wicked helpful videos. Should get an Oscar or something. I'm doing my Saab hood with cans and these videos brought me the final mile. Thanks.
Excellent video, perfect explanation and you kept it simple. The only thing you didn't say was why you don't want to stay in one spot too long. That's heat of course. I'm horrible at painting and learned that lesson the hard way. Thanks again.
LOL, elbow grease, best explanation ever seen. Thanks.
First video I have seen from you. I just subscribed, foremostly because you are a respectable human being, along with respectable subscribers which is refreshing on UA-cam.
An accurate and informative video. As usual, the help and advice is 100% relevant. Great effort!!!
I am a rank beginner here!! This was a GREAT video. Very informative. I just courageously (stupidly?) repaired some paint damage estimated at $1800. Looks pretty good but with orange peal. This video has given me a strategy to do a more professional job. Thanks - enjoyed your humor.
I am amazed you can get that well a paint done with cans.
McGyver777ATGMAIL won't last.
D G how'd ja know dat
@@MrSnipes1987 Exactly same stuff shot through guns (2k clear, that is). It'll do fine.
Love that all you know nothing about painting yet have lots to say. lol
@@MrSnipes1987 2K is 2K, but keep looking down your nose while not knowing anything
The difference is amazing. Always well explained and entertaining.
I'm loving your videos man
Reminds me of the good ol' days of parking lot fixes with alcoholic adventures at night
Thanx for sharing this...it really helped me recover what i thought was a ruined section when I tested wet sanding with 2000 grit on orange peel clear coat. I didn't clean it well enough and I didn't go back over enough with compound. After doing what you recommended, my little test section is restored to match the rest of the hood and when I have time, I will do the whole hood following this. Good vid, good direction. Thanx!
I dont know how I came across this video but for auto painting beginners this is a must watch..
Good job man, I watched this video again because I'm finally getting around to polishing my Porsche's bumper I painted last year lol
I just finished painting my C6 hood in my garage. I'm fortunate enough to have a decent air compressor so I didn't resort to aerosol cans, but everything else you've shown was incredibly helpful. I might add a disclaimer up front, in large flaming letters, "DO NOT PUT URETHANE BASE COAT OVER LACQUER-BASED PRIMER!" (Unless you're going for that cracked lunar surface look.) Keep it up!
Super educational, very professional with good humor! Thanks!
it's 3 am , how did I end up here?
I'm asking myself this same question right now.
Josh Guerrero nope, 2am, LOL
no, it's only 2:30
Josh Guerrero It's 420 here
Josh Guerrero 6:33 am
Another great video. I like how you squeeze everything that's squishy in your videos.
Omg, Eureka!!!! Mama's gon' be so proud that her son *finally* discovered the ever-elusive never ending fountain of "elbowgrease". The legend is REAL, with a nice corona & lime (1-2 of them work but I imagine 3-4 of them would be something more like it). Thanks, boy genius!
Fantastic Video. I've done several jobs over the years and you tought me some better and simpler ways. Thank you. (Corona costs a small fortune here in the UK)
One of the best DYI videos on youtube.
Great job on both videos. The only thing missing was a respirator mask, unless you love the smell of spray paint.
Jezus.... Nice man👍👍👍 I worked for some years as a car body worker/painter and I haven for some time now but this gets my love for it growing back
Literally the best video I’ve found on this topic
So funny when he nocked the beer down and started sanding so happy. Great video mate. Thanks
dude your videos never disappoint. thank you.
Probably the best video I've seen on this topic.
Thanks
Bro. You just did the simplest orange peel explanation. Thank you.
What a genius! He was able to get a pro paint job done with just spray cans! Truly, a rare inspiration...
I'm glad I found your video. #1, it was entertaining #2 I used 1k clear coat yesterday and I was getting ready to wetsand. Looks like I'm not doing that today.
no because the explanations were amazing, thanks for teaching us all these!
Great work man. Love your diy videos.
Man, He made that beer look good as hell!
So, I watched this on my phone earlier, but couldn't figure out how to comment or leave a thumbs up. Wanted you to know that I re-logged in on my laptop so that I could do both! Great video; it helped me. Thank you! Just subscribed too, by the way.
Hey just did this to my hood. Not too bad! Beats $1.000$ quote I got. I'll post pics when I'm done polishing. Just one note, if I could do it over, make sure you prime the surface really well with, I would say, several coats of primer. I could have used maybe one or two more coats. Then sand it the very best you can before painting painting and applying clear coat. Great video for DIY peops!
I'm working on the same 2k clear over black, using the same elbow grease fluid. Definitely appreciate the video.
well Thanks to this guy I can save some money and do my pick up myself, every dollar I save, means I can afford to live without worrying, Thanks you
Awesome videos my friend. Very informative. I've only painted a few car so far but mostly single stage stuff. Looking forward to adding clear coat to these jobs and this helps out.
Love watching you videos.... about to hit my 82 Trans Am with paint. Got some some much needed info and tips from your videos. Wish me luck
Great videos, nice to see people doing things on a budget
I love your videos. I keep watching and subscribed to the channel for your sense of humor.
Honey Jack for the Win!!!
Awesome video! About to tackle my 1995 Firebird. Black with obliterated clear coat. Wish me luck!
dude I'll pay this guy to paint my entire 240sx with rattle cans 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
chris nava same here
chris nava haha so true !
If you have a garage you can DIY this.
same lmao
chris nava that paint job looks like shit why would you pay him for that lol kids these days
Had to learn the body edge trick the hard way. Awesome videos man.
Thank you for explaining it as simply as possible!!! 💕
Funny, interesting, informative. Subscribed!
Thank you for sharing your video.... the drinking beer before the elbow grease was epic . 😂
I love your sense of humor
your videos are very well explained and informative. great job! 😀
These videos have helped me do better bodywork than the bad body shop that messed my car up. Thanks so much!
This guy is so cute I have some things that need wet sanding and polished. He does good work and with a little liquor I can keep him busy for hours.
Great informational video quick to the point and precisely on topic!
This is a really good video, I was also holding a beer and chugged it when you sarted to. Subscribed!
Thank you for all your video's. You are my go to auto DIY guru.
Hell yeah great video you gave a great perspective and broke it down in a easy step by step thanks for taking the time to make it
Brilliant! utterly fantastic teaching, thank you SOOOOOOOO much!
great video man it came out a lot better than I expected
best can paint Ive seen so far. tks
Pretty Amazing Results for Rattles cans, Nice Work, and thanks for the how-to.
U are fun too watch! Laughed a lot during the video and I know what I needed t know. Win win lol. Great video!
good job man....i can do a good paint job with rattle cans....only issue ive ever had is using masking tape on decals and window trim
should probably make a list of the things you will need first. At first you get the impression that its a cheap fix but then "Oh yeah" youre also going to need this and that and " you should probably get your self this and that" (in the middle of the whole thing) lol. other then that. i feel more confident to try it my self. Nice job.
Nice just what I needed. I just painted my rear bumper cover and it does have a little bit of orange peal. This is what I need to do! Thanks
Instead of buying some commercial swirl remover, go to a discount store or super market and buy a box of corn starch and jug of distilled water and mix up a paste that's about the same consistency as the polishing compound that you used and polish out those swirls with it. Custom painters from the 1950s and 60s used that to polish out swirls in their custom lacquer paint jobs to get that "hand rubbed" look. Works like a charm.
Great video. Working up the confidence to reclear my truck - funny how 'professional' body shops don't can't seem to do a good job either.
Great video, super clear explanations and entertaining.
R&W - the Corona Chugg was fantastic - along with the part 1 and 2 / Paint and Polish - nice videos - thanks for sharing and for us DIY this is good stuff - Thanks again
Good videos, funny guy, u make me laugh, keep those videos coming!
Orange Peel sent me here. (Spray Max 2k on the roof of a old Corolla). Thanks for the video.
looking to get me some of those ratchet wrenches. these last few videos are my favorite. 🙂 good job, 👍
I LOVE YOUR FUNNY MOMENTS IN THE VIDEOS !
5th session for plastic bottles
The Beer Made Me Absolutely Love This Video.. 🤣👍🏿✌🏿‼️ Reminds me of myself when I'm @ the shop..😂
