Legend Job, you put some hard yards in and some, and what a spectacular achievement......Any imperfections can be sorted, part of the process....I've been here from the start, patiently enjoying your journey, on the home stretch now champ.. 👍
Thanks mate, i'm relieved to find out that clear runs and orange peel aren't as uncommon as i thought and can be corrected. I will just take the time to take it back slowly so i don't burn through to base coat! Thanks for tuning in!
Nice one Barnsey. Great to see all that hard work pay off.
I am not a painter but I think you have done a great job of painting your car
@@davidharrison2312 thanks mate
Great job, love the colour too! Well done,
Thanks 👍
Solid effort for a back shed job! Yeew!!
Cheers!
Well done mate great achievement and milestone. The Porsche colour looks mint on it. 👍🍺
Thanks mate, very happy to hit the milestone and loving the colour as well, cheers 🤙
Nothing better than watching someone who is self taught in what ever they choose to do, and absolutely nail it. We’ll done indeed, can’t wait for next video 👍😎
Thanks Ryan, appreciate the feedback and thanks for the support!
Barnsy you have killed it bloody riper job done buddy
Thanks mate🤙 gave it my best crack!
What an AWESOME job Barnesy, you should be so proud of yourself for what you have done in the 4 years!!
Love the colour also, will look bloody fantastic in the sun!
Keep up the great work that keeps us ALL inspired
Well done mate.
Thanks mate definitely looking forward to getting it out into the sun ☀️!
I think you have done a amazing job looks absolutely awesome for someone’s first time painting keep up the great work 👍👍👍
Thanks mate!
Barnesy. What AWESOME JOB you are doing. Inspirational. Watched it from the start. You have given me the motivation/confidence to complete more of the build myself. I have acquired a '75 HJ Sandman Ute, from the desert. It needs heaps of work. Starting on it soon as a retirement project...Cheers..
Thanks mate, great find with the Sandman, they just never come up for sale so that's an awesome find. Good luck with the Resto!
Top job for a beginner. For the runs get a razor blade and stand it on it's edge then hold it with 2 fingers firmly and slid it left to right, that will take of the high spots down to the flat surface ;) no need to force the blade downwards just take ya time and you will get it ;)
Thanks mate👍 I did see the Razer Blade techniques, and for the the bigger runs I saw a poly glaze method which looked good as well.
Mad job luv the colour been following from the start well done
Thank you for sticking with it!🤙
Very good mate! Glad to see the job come together for ya and the nerves are real hey ha! The fix its are minor and will take some time tho but I’m sure you’ll get acquainted with the finer grits and nail it flat man. Hooooot!
Thanks mate, and thnaks again for all the tips! Definitely helped me get that result for sure. I have been researching sanding techniques and cutting polishing so almost at a stage to start the refinement!
All those hours and hours you spent preparing the panels, welding, filling, sanding, refilling sanding cleaning and more cleaning all paid off.
Thanks mate, yes all those hours were so hard to get through but all forgotten about now!
Well done Barnesy, there is nothing like the feeling of accomplishment of doing it yourself.
The gunman has some great video's on removing runs in clear using body filler and wet sanding and polishing.
It has been great to watch you progress and humbly learn as you go.
Your video's will be a great inspiration for many to have a go themselves.
All the best on the build ☺
Thanks Warren, appreciate the positive feedback, i did see the gunmans big runs method, looks like the way to go for sure for my big run, i will just take it really slow and use hand sanding. cheers mate
@@BarnesysBuilds even professional painters say "if you don't get any runs you weren't trying hard enough"
Sounds like a good excuse for runs ☺
Well done mate. Looks amazing. It really pops when the sun hits it
Thanks, Yeah looking forward to getting it out in full sun to see it really shine
I started smiling as soon as I saw that paint go on 😀👏👏 well done Barnesy👏👏😀
Thanks mate
Flipping heck mate.Came up a bloody treat. Lines look beautiful... What a relief. Learnt a lot watching your journey.Cheers and looking forward to more.
Thanks mate, appreciate you got something out of the journey as well!
Top job mate. I’ve just marathoned all the build videos from the beginning and it’s been great viewing. Congrats on achieving this milestone. 🍻
Thanks mate, appreciate the marathon as well!
An excellent choice of colour and a good paint job to boot. 👍
Thanks mate!
Beautiful mate
Awesome job mate. Thanks for taking us along on you journey. You have shown what’s achievable if you put your mind to it
Thanks mate, appreciate it
Good Job you could sand back one flow coat a couple of coats of clear
Great job mate - you must be well pleased to finally be at this stage.
I know some others have mentioned it already but, it bears repeating... even the very best painters get runs - same with orange peel. Razor blade and a small hard rubber block should see you right.
If it were me I would let it cure for a week or so then hit it with 800 on the DA with an interface pad then lay down a few flow coats - that'll give you plenty to work with when it's time to buff and polish and you'll get a nice deep shine.
Congrats on getting over this hurdle.
Thanks mate, thats music to my ears! Yeah as much as i would love to flow coat it i just don't have it in me to go through all that work again. I am just going to wet sand and buff what is on there and be happy with that i reckon. Plus the weather is cold now so to get another 18 degree day any time soon is going to be non exsistent. So i will just have to tread lightly and buff away i think! cheers mate
@@BarnesysBuilds Well pleased for you mate. You've come a long way since I first came across you in the other shed!
I can understand not wanting to mask up again, it's a real ballache, especially when all you want is to admire the glorious shiny new paint.
Do you have any spare panels or similar you can paint to match the ute? It might be good to have something to practice your wet sanding and buffing before you start the real thing - panel lines and edges mate, so easy to blow through and such an PITA to have to redo.
I have been using a fast drying clear from a company here called Tamco - 30 minutes and it's safe from debris and bugs. I wonder if there's anything similar down under?
Good on ya - it's been a great journey and I 'm looking forward to the next installment.
I do have the tailgate still which needs to be sanded back and repainted due to the moth so i have practised wet sanding 1500 on that to remove the orange peel with success. I will contirue practising on that and go all the way to 3000 grit then cutting compound then polish to see how it comes out. That tailgate only had 2 coats on it so if i don't blow through on that then i should be in safe hands with the 4 coats. I was wondering if 4 coats was going to be overkill and potentially cuase hazing but looks like i got away with it. The tech sheet says 2-3 coats, i did give it a good 15-20 minutes to flash off each coat though which may have saved me as the paint seems nice and glossy.
The Roberlo 150 HS clear is the one i used and that is the same drying time, 30 mins out the booth, so i reckon thats why i didn't get a lot of shit in the paint. Considering i had the booth walls caked in primer still it's amazing i didn't get more.
So rewarding to watch mate, my hat's off to you for doing the gapping. A lot of people go to all the trouble of rebuilding these utes but don't address those horrendous gaps. It makes a huge difference.
That colour is so good. It's possibly slightly browner than mine will be, in about 10 years 🤣
It's going to look so good with all your chrome back on. Congratulations.
Thanks Ray, yes I'm hoping the doors go on the same way again, I will load up the protective tape before hand on all the edges and paint and should be right. Yeah I agree it does look darker brown than the inner guards outside the booth and slightly more silver inside the booth. It really is shaped by the environment so it may take on another tone when I full sun, which is what I'm expecting, that real silver bronze will start coming through. Thanks again Ray, and thanks for sticking with it as well!
Looks epic, well done. I pinched your colour choice for my VF Valiant hardtop project. Been waiting weeks and weeks for the weather to come good so I can shoot the paint. I can feel your relief to finally lay the paint! These self taught apprenticeships are tough, but very rewarding! Well done again Barnsey.
Thanks mate! Appreciate the feedback, your right being self taught is hard work but you certainly don't forget in a hurry! Yeah i think i just got in with the weather, the beauty is little to no bugs! I still need to paint doors and guards so might have to heat the booth up if i am to get them done anytime soon. cheers
Excellent job. It’s nerve wracking because everything has come down to this moment, but all your hard work and thoughtful planning has paid off.
Yeah definitely, one little mistake like flicking the hose mid way through the metallic to hit a panel, or a drip of sweat landing on a panel, or the gun pot dribbling. Heaps of things can go wrong that will force a respray and a managed to dodge them all luckily! Cheers
Great job mate. Looking mint. The build is really building momentum now. Looking forward to seeing it on the road. 👍
Thanks, yeah big hurdle, very happy to be moving on to assembly stage thats for sure!
Looks great bro, can’t wait to see it put together :) 👍👍👍
Thanks mate🤙
Huge fan, well done mate. Looks awesome
Thanks mate!
Hey Barnsey, really admire and respect your work. What a great result!
Cheers Tony and Anna
Thanks Tony and Anna, appreciate the kind words.
Brilliant. You should give yourself a pat on the back. You are inspirational. 🌈
Thanks Carol, appreciate the kind words.
Oh mate awesome job . Well done. Love the color . And just think done all yourself . Carnt wait 2 see it put back 2gether
Thanks mate, looking forward to bolting on the doors and guards to complete the picture.
👌👏👏👏. Well done, mate. It has been a great journey. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thanks mate, appreciate it.
stunning work son,the dribbles can be fixed no probs.nice colour.........peace
Thankyou!
Nothing wrong with that result. Brilliant work there champ. 👏 👍👌
Cheers mate, appreciate it
Look mate, as a painter of 20 years for your first job, well done. You will always get some peel unless you're a professional and you flow coat. But with 4 coats of clear it gives u a buffer to cut and polish and bring it up to where u want it. If those lower guards are a bit too peely hit it with 1200 then 1500 then 2000 then 3000 and youll be right. Buffing is the nxt challenge. The rest of the car should be right to start with 1500 then the rest. Look into juice polishes. Very user friendly. Cut and polish, swirl removal, final glaze. Good work.
Thnaks mate, appreciater the feedback and it puts my midn at rest to know the peel is fixable. What sand paper do you recommend, the 3M trizact system of papers for the DA? I was looking at 1500 then 3000 grit then to use the 3M 1,2,3 cut to polish system. I had a DA machine i just purchased for the cutting and polishing with the 3 types of german pads etc
I was going to use the DA for the sanding, taking it very easy of course and practising first on the tailgate as that needs to be redone anyway. I know DA is a little riskier than by hand sanding but seems to give amuch better faster result.
@@BarnesysBuilds I would hand soft block 800 wet for the lower half of the side panels then 1200 over that and the rest of the sides. Then break out the DA with trizact 1500 all over then 2000 then 3000 Cut and polishing is an art so take your time with it. Its easy to stuff up. I also only use rotary polishers but their a lot harder too use. Good luck.
Awesome work legend! What a moment in the build!
Thanks mate, yeah absolutely huge step forward to getting it finished, very happy.
Well done mate. Very impressive results for self taught. Hat goes off to you mate. Love it 👌
Thanks mate, appreciate it👍
Bloody good result, can't wait to see it all done & back together.
Cheers mate, yeah same, looking forward to the build up now!
Great work, she will be rumbling down the road in no time.👍
Yeah can't wait to fire up that new donk!
Good job mate 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Set of weld racing wheels would be killer love the colour
Just looked them up, they would sit well with the paint actually...
@@BarnesysBuilds and the rears come in non bead lock as well go 15 inch by the biggest you can put under the rear and put 17 inch on the front
Looking great mate. Really remarkable job for a first crack at spray painting.
Thank you! Cheers!
Man that looks so good. The runs on the firewall wet sand them and polish and she'll be sweet
Great job mate she looks the goods 🍻👍🏽
Thanks mate!
That’s come up amazing! Awesome colour choice! You have way more patience than me! Good job.
Thanks mate. Yeah it has tested my patience that's for sure!
1 way of sorting the runs out, is to use body bog around the runs & then sand it out.
Congrats glad to on board with your progress 👍
Thankyou!
Top job dude!
You gotta be proud of that result.
Enjoy the beers staring at it.
And get back to work to start finishing it off ASAP😜
Thanks mate, absolutely, i keep going out to look at it every few hours, fired up to get it built up now. cheers
@@BarnesysBuilds motivation levels high good to hear!
I'm building an SLR 5000 replica.
I'm nearly at final paint stage but I've decided not to take it on.
The body work and primer stages was enough for me plus if I sand it again at home I reckon I'll be up for divorce haha.
I got taken for a spin one last weekend with a 355 stroker with 560hp.
Can't wait to get it all going.
That's got me pumped now too.
Good luck with the rest of it bud.
Keen to see the end result.
Great job mate watched the whole progress from the beginning has got me started on my projects also. Looking forward to seeing the final project come life great work 👍
Awesome to hear mate, thanks for watching, definitely keen to start building up the parts now to finish it off and get it cruising!
Looks awesome, you should be proud. I can't wait until my ute is ready for paint.
Thanks mate, and good luck with the bodywork!
Nice work mate , be proud you’ve done a great job so far , looking forward to the donk going in 👍
Cheers! Yeah really looking forward to that!
Man that looks so good, can’t wait for the next instalment 👍
Thanks 👍
Those diesel heaters are awesome lve got one
Hey mate, so you've got heaps of clear there for you to block down the whole car and eliminate all the orange peel and get a smooth glassy finish. Wet sand it starting with 1500 and then 2000 and up to 3000 - 3500 and buff it to a glassy finish all over. When you say you held the gun 2 inches from the panel that isn't how spray guns work, you have to move back to about 6 inches or so to give the fluid room enough to atomize and reach full fan width. Leave it for a couple of weeks before you start with the blocking. I agree it pays to be able to paint with both hands to reach the hard to get to parts, like everything it comes with practice, keep it up man your on the home straight now. The sides look dead straight man, fuckin good job mate, now the doors and front panels eh. I hope I've been of some help with advice over the last few years. Cheers mate 👍
Thanks mate, yes I was going to go down that path with the sanding, any recommendations on sanding pads? I was going to use 3M on the DA or do you recommend doing by hand? Will take forever and won't be as smooth I reckon by hand. Yes you definitely helped mate I applied a lot of your recommendations which definitely helped get me get the ute to where it's at. Really appreciate the feedback and help. Yeah I guess it wasn't two inches, about a fist away from the surface, it got the smoothest results so I guess whatever works! I found the further away the more peely it got. I reckon that clear isn't the easiest to apply, seems to be not very forgiving
Great job mate. Looks amazing 👌👌
Looks fantastic!!
Only got into your build a few days ago and the paint looks beautiful. I have a 4x4 I’m still getting to how I want. I’d love to get into a kingswood Ute build some day and you definitely have given me inspiration and I’m sold once the bt-50 is done I’ll be searching for a Holden to work on
Nice, Yeah they are great old simple vehicles to work on, can't go wrong!
Looks good mate. Love the colour! Keep up the good work
Thanks Fred👍
Good job mate, those little runs are nothing to worry about, you can block them out with 1500. You can get a tungsten block and knock them down but wait a few weeks until is hard. You can never completely eliminate orange peel so don't be hard on yourself man I reckon you smashed it. What wheels are you looking at?
🇭🇲👍
ute looks great mate. You should be very proud if your work.
Thanks Max, yeah i am definitely happy with the result now, cheers
Well done mate, love the colour! It’s come up trick! 🍻🍻
Thank you! Cheers!
Well done Barnesy, it looks good. The preparation work has paid off big time. For a first job it is excellent. There is no doubt you need to be ambidextrous to use a spray gun and have a good memory to remember where you have been with it. I like those wheels, they are classic period correct WB, but I’m an old fart. Don’t like the tyres though, been there with them. Jeff
Thanks Jeff, yeah I love the old dragway as well but unfortunately they are too far gone and need an overhaul, rechrome new centre's etc, I would prefer to spend the money and get some new different style wheels for this build however. Verdict is still out on what wheels!
Looks good mate keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see it on the road 👍
Cheers mate👍 can't wait to roll it out of that shed under its own power!
Im from south Africa and Ive got the same ute like jours.only we call it a Chevy elcamino.im alsow busy repainting it.i had the same enjine problems jou gad.put a new can and lifters in it,and during run in time the cam and lifters broke the same way as jours,so we came to the conclusion that the oul chanels is blocked.so I fixed a nother enjine 350 with camel heads
I have seen the elcamino which I think was a HQ model from memory. Oil mods were done to the block to make sure the oil gets to the cylinders faster.
Awesome job Barnsey 👏👏👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Happy for ya mate, as a viewer it has been a very enjoyable watch.
Thanks mate!
Well done mate. I've been following the build from the start. There's nothing quite like actually building your dream yourself from start to finish. You wouldn't happen to originally be from Macedon by any chance? Small world if you were...
Thanks Geoff, Appreciate the patience with being there from the start, it really is rewarding doing it yourself thats for sure.
I am from Mount Macedon actually, i grew up there, i know the place like the back of my hand!
depending on where your located i offer to come remove the runs for you. but if your wanting to do it your self . stay away from a tungsten if you've never used one before . but use a razor blade and mask each side of the blade . keep it flat and use single motion passes over the high areas . then use 1000 1500 2000 then 3000 grit wet to sand the area. then a cutting compound and wool pad to polish the sanding scratches .great work mate
oh just realised your in perth lol
Hey mate, actually i'm near Castlemaine Victoria so not far from Melbourne at all.
@@BarnesysBuilds oh! Well offer is there mate. You have my email if you wanted to chat about it ?
@@BogDustForBreakfast Yeah sure i will shoot you an email
Nicely done. It takes years to get it perfect, so that is pretty good start.
Thanks mate, thats great to hear!
Well done Barnesy been watching from the start. All tht hard work has payed off, its gona look a millon bucks when u finish the paint. And its going to sound the part to with tht engine.
Thanks mate, appreciate you sticking with the build, it's been a long old haul but i agree it has paid off spending th extra time on the panels.
Well done mate good effort…I’m sure it’ll buff up a treat!
Thanks mate, yeah the 4 coats should be enough to give me a little wiggle room to flat sand the problem areas. cheers
Sand the runs on the firewall out starting with P240 then go up grades to about P1200. Looks great though.
I heard a few methods, 240 seems aggressive compared to the others. I think 600 was the lowest someone said they would go or use either the polyglaze method with 300 and or a tungsten block to shave them off. Etc
Awesome job mate!
Thanks mate
You are a superstar an inspirational effort well done
Thanks mate, appreciate that!
I reakon u done an awesome job man well done
Thanks mate
Good shit mate love ya work.
Thanks mate, you definitely helped me along the way for sure, and i will be looking to you for advise with orange peel removal if you don't mind as well! Cheers mate
Fantastic result, great to see, and whilst I'm in the early stages of doing similar with a hq ute, encouraged by your outcome, giving me hope to keep chipping away.
Curious about the booth at this point, given the time and conditions, can I ask what you would possibly do differently in hindsight?
Cheers, Drewfus
Thankyou, I think in order to make the booth perform more like a professional booth I would have a minimum of two fans from the beginning, the orange (Detroit fans) and have them at the base of the booth externally so as only the front is in an opening in the booth. I think this creates a greater vacuum due to only having one point of flow as compared to the box which had 3. I would also box the room with wooden studs so as to staple the builders plastic down for a better stronger seal. I have had no end of dramas with the tape slowly peeling off and have redone at least 3 times.
The plastic is a great method as it attracts the particles as well.
Finally I would increase the inflow filter area by 3 times at least, this would allow a greater draft of air to flow over the booth and down to the outlets removing particles faster. I would also place lights at the base of the booth on the wooden studs and at the top, powerful LEDS to give more light. Without even coverage once overspray starts it makes it very hard to see if you don't have good even lights. And that's it, a lot but not much extra effort if your going to do it anyway. Cheers
@@BarnesysBuilds thanks, appreciate the feedback, helpful to learn from the experience , cheers 👍
You are to hard on yourself i think it looks fantastic great job keep the good work and content on the video you are helping me learn as well all so top job on the music 👍
Yeah i have been known for doing that, thanks mate!
Looks nice mate 👌😎🇦🇺
Thanks mate
Got some info on the heater, might have to get one when I paint mine.
Yeah sure, you can grab them off ebay, they are commonly used to heat caravans and camper trailers etc, really basic, pretty cheap, around $170
🔥🔥
Looks fuckin good mate!
Thnaks mate, appreciate it
Great stuff mate! How big is the paint "room", and are you happy with the size? I'm about to put one up in my shed. Cheers
Cheers, I actually havent measured but it's roughly 8 metres by 5 or close enough i reckon
The Bronze take our pride 🤫😜
Mad Max reference 🤔
I noticed a second fan next to the heater?
Was the one not enough?
Yeah two fans transformed the whole booth, it hardly had any over spray after I added that second one
@@BarnesysBuilds I’m looking at building a booth to spray my Brumby and looking the air inlet and outlets , and what else I need to do
@@BarnesysBuilds what was the diesel heater that you had and where did you get it?
@@russellmarker3673 just an eBay special, RV caravan diesel heater, they also sell them on Edison's
Great job for yout first paint job, it's reaaly hard to see what your talking about, really do need more light on the subject.looks so much better in the sun, well done
Yes can't wait to get it out in full sun.
@@BarnesysBuilds I have just completed a HX Panel Van build with a 355 like yours, not a sandman but built to look like one, has a Turbo 400 and 9inch diff, with a electronic fuel injection carburetor.
@@waynegoodwin3217 nice, did you go the Holley Sniper? I'm just about to revisit my petrol tank as I am learning that the 5/16 fuel line isn't big enough and I will need to plumb a 3/8 line with an electric pump. I was going to go the returnless Holley in tank retro pump. It's not EFI ready though so if I ever did want to upgrade the Carby I would need to do the pump again as well. The aeromotive in tank does both but comes in at $1000.
@@BarnesysBuilds ended up going with Fitech
@@BarnesysBuilds I originally had a holly 650 double pumper but it was a shit to start, never ever look back once I installed the Fitech, I don't have a fuel pump in the tank it's a separate force fuel system so connects to the original fuel pump and uses the original carbon filter return line to the tank.
Looks sik mate
Cheers mate
well done, exceeded expectation , dude you painted it in a back yard meth lab, LOL Great job, look forward seeing the engine in it.
Thanks mate, yeah the meth lab worked a treat with two fans, it had so much draw I had to tape the walls back from sucking in on the ute. I reckon that's one of the reasons it came out the way it did. The light conditions were not great though, made it super hard to see quarters low down along sills but managed to get there. Yeah can't wait for the engine as well
