This video sold me on subscribing. When I was your age, I did this sort of thing. Was my favorite hobby. I have owned 36 different cars since I was 15 years old. Only bought one of them as new.
Love the Neon. And now you can rest assured it has better paint on it than when it left the factory. So many makes had the same peeling problems with water based paint. Thanks for the video, very enjoyable. I always swore my 63 Valiant had been painted with house paint when I got it. Factory red, Earl Scheib beige, refrigerator white then One Day Paint Antique White it's been wearing for 17 years now that still looks respectable.
No problem. The industry had to change paint formulas to meet EPA factory emissions regulations. Lots of Corsicas and Grand Ams out there with the same look. Moar videos !!!! That Neon looks clean and respectable now. And I thought the lip video was a clever use of garden supplies. It's a sickness and you've got it. Enjoy.
I did my truck 1 1/2 years ago in similar fashion and just ONE coat of rust-oleum (black) and i did not "water" it down. It withstand winter, summer you name it however it's now fading a bit (sun light) so will be doing your method if thinning it down and multiple coats. And i will bondo the small dents it got on my cab.... Cool project and well done..
as somebody whos job was a panel beater and spray paint when saw the roller my instictive though was dude are you crazy but i got to say thats come out pretty good. Top job 👍
Nice job man! I've been wanting to try spraying my car with rustoleum seeing as it has a decent but sub par paint that is experiencing some issues. Good to see a quality video, most leave alittle to be desired.
I just did the rustolrum roll on job on my truck. White is very forgiving, satin black is probably the best. Anything with “gloss” written on it comes out blotchy. White primer first, that stuff doesn’t stick as well as you would hope.
I appreciate the effort you went to making these videos. One note though, certain paints shouldn't be shaken as it causes bubbles to form. Overall good tutorials.
Just an update on my car I decided to scrap the roller altogether and am going with a high density sponge instead padding it on. It seems to produce a bit smoother results in my case, I was working in 80 degree temperatures and my attempts to smooth out the edges between rolled areas went disastrously. Perhaps I didnt have enough thinner mix ratio (using 50% mineral spirits/ 50% paint) but I think because it was really warm even my attempt to lightly smooth the areas I had just painted dried fast enough to leave imperfections which I'll have to go and do a lot of sanding on down again, as in like back to the beginning stage. After getting frustrated I broke out the high density sponge only lightly dipping it into the remaining paint and added more diluter and just started pressing it against a test area that hadn't been painted yet and just kept pressing the sponge until the sponge was dry and as mentioned I got a more uniform result in the end with that method. Still in the process with the rest of the car, let you know how that goes.
I've heard of some guys doing this, but it seems like they always use white paint. I assume it's because it hides a lot of the imperfections. Would you say the finish from the roller is better than a well done rattle can job?
if it is cold acetone is probably fine but it will dissolve most plastics given enough time, I am going to spray my truck with a similar paint but I don't know if i will use a1 kerosene or lacquer thinner (acetone) I guess i should test both.
Hey man, great videos! Of all the rustoleum paint job tutorials this one has been the most useful to me, very thorough, nice pacing, good editing, I hope this channel picks up, I definitely want to see more DIY car projects, I am always doing these sorts of things! I'll be doing this to my 02 Focus next week. One question though, did you notice any orange peel in the paint after your fourth coat? If so, what would you suggest for dealing with it? Im thinking a light wet sanding and maybe buffing? Thanks!
+DIY Car Projects I appreciate the response! Thanks for all those tips, Im working on sanding the car currently and using bondo on some small rust spots, I should be rolling pretty soon now! Im subscribing now, Ill definitely keep my eye out for the next video, Thanks again!
cool vid but i think u could have thrown on some less gay jams lol...also instead of using the rollers they do have some dyi electric sprayers on amazon or ebay...there the ones with the vacuum motor hose and spray can check them out there like no more than 50 if u want better quality work or add clear coat...smh but dont use a roller it leaves orange peel like crazy and the results just are not worth it....but hey pratice and experimenting makes perfect.

These videos were suggested to me. I remember watching them years ago. You've come a long way! Lol
Love the rustoleum kits. Looks great!

looks much better.
Definatly doing this with my crown vic, might be a dumb question, but how do you know when you've done one coat? Gonna paint my car black.
You got to take it easy on that hyperlapse and music dude. All I want to see is how you roll it on and how you mix it
I've heard of some guys doing this, but it seems like they always use white paint. I assume it's because it hides a lot of the imperfections. Would you say the finish from the roller is better than a well done rattle can job?
Did you have any issues a few months down the line with the paint peeling off due to different weather conditions and temperatures?
if it is cold acetone is probably fine but it will dissolve most plastics given enough time, I am going to spray my truck with a similar paint but I don't know if i will use a1 kerosene or lacquer thinner (acetone) I guess i should test both.
Get mothers polish use it on your headlights it with clear it up like new just buff it with a microfiber towel trust me try it

Interesting. If you have'nt already, post it on Neons.org. and link the videos.
good job
Is that Euro techno in the background, DIY ?
lol here's the science to the art... 50/50 or 75 paint 25 mixer the 50 50 is a bit harder as far as runs but lays better and ooks better in the end
so I have a white Mazda 626 about this size could I go black with it
nice what did you use for the gas tank to protect against gas spills?
+DIY Car Projects thank you. do you have any recommendation on what i should use to paint over it?
Semen
Not too shabby bud
well, mate...you need to make diy spray can. so you can reuse the can for spraying.
good job, tho.
Can u use harbor paint gun also?
It is good. Супер!
no wet sanding after second coat? or after the fourth? Jesus..
Neons are cheap and easy to tune
you really need to make the intro more quiet, its so loud!
did u sand between coats ?
cool vid but i think u could have thrown on some less gay jams lol...also instead of using the rollers they do have some dyi electric sprayers on amazon or ebay...there the ones with the vacuum motor hose and spray can check them out there like no more than 50 if u want better quality work or add clear coat...smh but dont use a roller it leaves orange peel like crazy and the results just are not worth it....but hey pratice and experimenting makes perfect.
I wish I could hear you over the music.
who is the artist in the background
why don't you mix mineral spirits with it?
umm. you forgot to do 5 to 10 coats of clear coat
Just one question does it leave a texture to the paint?
BUILT ok thanks
why the acetone?
The worst way to paint your car , I wouldn't suggest it , or the paint better off spending money on a gun ,machine and product unless it's a neon
cant hear audio, only insane edm musoc
whats the name of that song that plays in the video??
Kontinuum - Lost
Ну это не совсем так делается. При такой такой покраске немного другая технология.
why are you wearing gloves! ?
To keep his finger nails clean
pelo menos ficou branco.
What song is that?
Kontinuum - Lost
why did you use a foam roller, could have at least attempted to use a wagner spray gun. smh
And this is why you don't buy white cars off Craigslist.
My teeth need whitening.
El coche sera para tirar por q vaya basura de trabajo en pintura con brocha parece las paredes de gotele de mi abuelos
