Very good, I like your idea of put the wood on the wing mirror cover to hold it without touch the paint. I'm going to do that on mine to make great finish. I cant wait to get it started.
Will this process work on a 1981 Chevy square body for the interior plastic door panels and other interior parts? Thanks for your channel and help. Randy
thanks for this video. I just got a saturn and the paint on it has seen some better days. Looking foreward to using this method on the plastic pannels.
Use laquer thinner or nail polish with damp cloth used for polishing or detail clean wiped lightly no need to scuffled , has smooth finish , adding tiny scratches, plus, I lead sealer yes sandwich it , I used spray can either can kit to put it in aerosal , or kit that a paint company supplier dealer put in can ,, that way is cleaner saves time n money ,it's more expensive , put don't have to use electricity air compressor, gun, then the clean up in between, larger parts are different n take longer to dry for some reason ,
I can't afford a paint gun, compressor, and expensive sealers and hardeners, all I can get is rattle can adhesion promoters and krylon paints, gonna have to make due, gotta use what you have, I know its not the "right way' but that can of adhesion promoter says you can paint right over it, so thats what im going to do.
@@PHARRAWAY i appreciate you showing the professional methods but not all of us has that luxury so i do appreciate you showing the right way with the paint guns and everything, thanks for that.
Newbie here as well. Just got new "sport" type mirrors for my OBS Chevy and need to paint match them. Very good detail as I was able to follow along. You got a like from me.
How to paint a electric scooter panels it is painted pink from the factory. I want to paint it a different color. How would I do it ? Do I have to strip all old pink paint off parts ?
Hello my friend I painted my car before 6 hours I lay down the base coat every thing was super good but when I lay the clear coat suddenly only the trunk is full of reaction and fish eyes . But I am having super fun Don’t over thinking it’s just paint Passion for paint andddddd God bless
I appreciate your video, I don't know what the hell is wrong with the Internet they don't want to show nobody anything about how to protect ABS plastic, I want to use ABS plastic because it's very impact resistant and easy to mold and I use pure acetone to glue them together which is very cheap but no information on how to protect it so I can mold parts for a custom job. Thank you my friend🎉🎉❤😏😏😎
Looks good, thanks 👍. The main thing I took from this was that it's not just the paint you need but lots of other products as well, and that paint gun.
What’s the difference between using a regular primer after the adhesion promoter to a primer sealer? I’m using Duplicolor adhesion promoter & I also have a can of Duplicolor primer sealer are those ok to use with U.pol power can spray paint?
can you get away with using just primer + spray paint? I already applied primer but forgot to do the adhesion promoter before. wondering if it's worth it to go: 1 - primer 2- adhesion promoter (since i forgot) 3 - primer 4 - spray paint some sites say adhesion promoter should absolutely not go over primer, but others say the opposite. wondering if you have any thoughts on it? thanks in advance
Hi thanks for video. I have couple questions do you heavily sand textured plastic like mirrors and do you sand your primer before applying paint. Also, any special instructions for tricot color paints with metallic?
Can you let us know what exact products to use from like homedepot as far as prime,paint and adhesive and also we don't need clear right since I'm using gloss paint can.
Hello, just so I’m clear. You called the primer coat, the base coat, which you mention you just need one coat of that. But then, after you painted 3 coats of the color, you mention it was the base coat too. Are the primer and color coats all called base coats then? Thank you.
This video has the exact info I needed, thank you very much for posting it. Just got an email yesterday saying that Grant 7 is back in stock. I will be trying it on my 06 F150. BTW, I know you know the price of paints but I don't I called my PPG store to get a quote for the Deltron Abyss Gray.....$3320 a gallon and my truck would take two, LOL. I'm sure there are way more expensive paints but WOW. I almost fell out of my chair. Needless to say, I ended up getting their Shopline and it was $1500 base and clear. It's not a show truck, so if it lasts a couple years, that's OK.
I'm looking into painting a few ABS plastic panels on my Focus. Did you end up using any of the reducer that appears to come with the sealer kit that you show in the video? I am relatively new to this, so I am trying to figure out what the purpose of it would be. As an alternative: would the Plastic Primer they have on their site be an acceptable substitute to using the sealer? I'm applying it on ABS plastic.
@@PHARRAWAY Thanks. I was also looking at the Dupli-Color CP199 Clear Adhesion Promoter Primer as an alternative to the sealer you used. Have you had any experience with this, or do you think it would do the trick?
My friend, thank you for the video. Question-for panels like on the Saturn S-series, do you need to add some kind of flexing agent, and even for polyurethane and stuff like that. What do you recommend?
What’s the difference between sealer and primer and adhesion promoter? I want to paint my exterior trim. I have scuffing pads and sand paper, I have paint, but in painting videos people have paint Guns and sealer
The sealer is primer but you don't need to sand it the adhesion promoter is used on plastic so that the paint can stick to it. If you don't use it your paint will start peeling
@@PHARRAWAY i was thinking to sand it with like 600 grit since it is oxidized and bumpy maybe refine it with 1200 grit.. and then spray on primer from paint scratch brand and then spray with good quality spray cans. Is this good as a budget option? Also, if I don't sand i was thinking of using magic eraser instead to clean up my trim since I hear they are abrasive..
I have a 99 2 door tahoe that I want to change the interior from tan to dark black or graphite grey. Any advice or steps to take to mimic factory (matte or not shiny) would greatly be appreciated. I'm new to this process so please be easy on me. Just want to make my Tahoe look awesome on the inside as if it just rolled off the lot. So any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Keep posting your videos man. Very good insight.
Perfect informative video to end my Good Friday on. This will also work for interior trim and panels to correct? Happy Easter to every one on Sunday as well 🍻
Can sealer and primer be used interchangeably? I don’t know anything about painting and I have these glasses frames that I paint and it cracks occasionally because they are meant to bend a little
Hey, this may be weird but I am planning on painting the front cover of guitar hero guitars and I was planning on doing this. If you don't mind me asking what is the sealer for, and do I need it for a guitar hero controller?

Great step by step. How much total for tools and materials if I have nothing?
For us newbies, why was your first step to sand/scratch the cover?
thanks for this video. I just got a saturn and the paint on it has seen some better days. Looking foreward to using this method on the plastic pannels.
Have you had good luck with paint staying on ABS long term. Thanks for your help
Yes

That is correct
Tesla Model Y has textired plastic trim around wheel wells and rocker panels, can they be painted same colour as vehicle ?
