Well this was a surprise ! Did not expect to see my humble old GPz panels on the channel . I'm stuck for words , watched the vid with a tear in me eye seeing such a mesmerising craft ! I'm actually scared to touch them let alone fit them back onto the bike . Can't thank you enough for what you both done for the old girl !
Hey man and Thankyou buddy see that comment right there fella makes it worth it alone honestly , was happy to help mick bringing it back to life for you , you’ll have to take a ride down on it when it’s done and show it off 😀
👍👍👍
Very nice. Would love to see the finished bike. I’m restoring two GPZ550’s myself. Love these bikes. Have two ZR550’s also same as my very first bike in 83 at 18😊
Great paintjob!
@@TonysRefinishingTV Tony thats a fantastic color,,,I love redoing old motorbikes and giviing new life ,,,,I'm doing a GSXR right now,,,,congrats
@@renejakobsen7444 soon as it's finished will get it over to their shop so they can maybe do a small vid 👍. Mine is an 82 GPz550 H2
It's seriously therapeutic to watch Tony paint ... Calm and steady as she goes!
Lol thanks man
Great job Tony, we use the same direct gloss /clear finish on our budget resprays. always comes up perfect and will last longer in the brutal aussie sun.
Exactly mate ideal for that
This is bike enthusiasts gold on how to paint bike panels and what product to use. In my ignorance I used a base and clearcoat on old panels and got every problem you described🤣 in video, thanks for all the help keep them coming.
Ah man always terrible when that happens buddy but you learn from the mistakes and believe me we all make them fella , glad this helped you to buddy
Fantastic finish 👍 not painted for years but I always used to overthin my clear to get it like glass, worked well. That stuff looks really decent though un-thinned.
Wasn’t there talk of banning 2k and going just water based at one point ?
Such a clever guy..you make it look so easy. Wish i had the room to try out spraying
Lol i try my best mate
Good explanation of the technique to get a deeper shine. Have decided to freshen up my scruffy Carfix van over winter a couple of panels a time so may do this to get a better finish . thanks Tony
No problem abs hope your project goes well
Great video Tony... Looks fantastic as all your work does... 2nd to none... Best of the best.... Super helpful buddy... Peace mate... Have a blessed weekend buddy 🙏🙌💖👍
Thanks Bruce great to see you again too
Great video again Tony very interesting as I still want to try some direct gloss but still haven't got round to it due to me trying to sort out the water base side of things and deciding if a Mini Paint Scheme would be worth getting.
Anyway mate you did a fantastic job on those bike panels they came out like glass with the final coat of clear from Multi-Mix 2HS, I love this clear but like you I found you have to trust your finish and trust the clear will flow out to that glassy finish something which I struggled with when I first used it. I give it one fast close but closed coat then let it flash followed by a full wet coat then leave it, it will do the rest for you giving a great gloss at the end 👍
yeah couldnt agree more mate il see how it goes as i get to use it more of the next week or so too
Cracking job fella love the rythem you paint at never look hurried
Nah man always take my time relax and enjoy what I do man
Cracking video again mate, the new multi mix hs looks mint, am tempted to flow coat my van next spring when weather will be good in my out door spray booth lol have a great wk end dude 👌👍🤙
Thanks buddy and thanks for joining on the live chat too buddy have a great weekend
Such a total expert, a joy to watch
Thankyou
I mixed 10% clear into my single stage and used an extra 2.5% reducer and it came out awesome
Nice mate I’ve done that with black gloss before just to add that extra bit of shine
Excellent finish Tony lovely colour mirror finish results 👏👌
Thankyou brain great to see you here mate hope you are well
Hey Tony can u do a video on different paint reactions?
I can mate if I can catch them on camera lol
That colour looks the nuts...so nice.
It’ll look nice when it’s rebuilt for sure
Nice one Tony Great video got to give the multi mix 2 a go looks a nice clear 👍
It’s real nice mate no complaints so far
Finish is top notch as per bro just had a shower after work and zoned in 😃😃😃
Thanks man 👌
I normally clear over dg it leaves it soo nice class job mate 😎👍
Thanks Ben
Does the website sp supplies make paint to match the paint code for a car.?
Absolute Brilliant video mate. What a finish! Seriously Tony, i Absolutely love watching you spray.... just seems so relaxed! 👌👍 Have a great weekend mate 👍
Thanks buddy , and spraying for me is like therapy buddy it’s my chill out time so I just fill the tub up and relax n enjoy my time in the booth , love it mate
@@TonysRefinishingTV it definitely shows in the way you spray mate, a real gentle approach! Love it also 👌👍

Hiya pal
My car was painted in 2k super red gloss ( toyota colour) a year ago. How do I go about putting a clear coat over this now to give it more protection primarily to stop the typical red fading which tends to happen?
Thanks
You could wet flat or disc is back so it’s dull and keyed then clear it mate
@@TonysRefinishingTV thank you
Another cracking video Tony, nice colour that 👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
Thanks russ glad you enjoyed it
Cracking video again lad! Cheers.
Thanks man and thanks for watching buddy
Nice job as always mate I think that green is much nicer than the old kawasaki green the two coats and then clear i always did it on bike panels like you say its extra protection I think bikes need it plus hows your health you sound a bit chesty like me im asthmatic and when its playing up get chesty just right before I get an attack sorry I'm drifting off subject a bit ha ha anyway its a very nice job mate
Lol thanks man and il be honest I was knackered that day early morning in the gym and 35c in the booth all day haha , we’re putting a whole new mask system in next week anyway wana look after my health more but I’m good ya mate you?
@@TonysRefinishingTV its good your expanding I know things will work out better and hopefully earn you more so your not having to work as hard you deserve it mate all that hard work you put in over the years you deserve to make a decent living from your hard graft mate
Thanks man and I hope it will buddy still a long way to go but we’ll get there 😊
Nice job, the guy should be well happy.
Thanks Jimmy
Great work mate
Thanks Jason
I'm still annoyed I didn't have the confidence to push on and do a clear coat on top of the paint when I did it a couple of months back. I got a nice finish on the direct gloss and was afraid to tempt fate with a coat of clear 😂
Lol well next time man take a test panel in along with you too and try on that if all goes well smash the rest buddy
Looks boss mate
Thanks 🙏
Beautiful! Do you ever spray with your fluid control at the max?
Not unless it’s really hot mate we just don’t have the climate here in the Uk to run full fluid on guns mate
@@TonysRefinishingTV Got it. Thanks my friend. like your paint work :)
Very interesting technique, do you think two colour coats plus one clear is better than applying three coats of colour?
100% in all honesty as long as the colours covered fully then a coat of clear will give it some protection and give the gloss that bit more life too and a touch extra uv protection over the exposed colour too
How can I get in touch with you i want my car painted by you. Thanks
My email is in the video description
Hi will do tonight thanks
Nice job , What gun are you using Tony ?
Think this was the sagola 4600 dvr clear
When you say "direct gloss" is that the same as what I hear called "single stage" or is there a difference?
Yes mate it’s the same as it’s a one stage system colour and gloss in one basically
Hi Tony. Whats the setup for direct gloss. Fluid and pressure?
So with this gun full fan two turns out on the fluid and 2.0 bar mate
@@TonysRefinishingTV what about on the Bellaria w400
Not sure mate it’s been a few years since I used one I do have one coming soon though so il be able to say more thenn
Great video, what's the downside of using 2k Gloss? Seems like it's quicker, cheaper and harder wearing.
So with base and clear the colours protected with 2k gloss like vans are painted in the colours exposed more to uv rays , washing road grime ect ect so although it’s as hard wearing the colour itself tends not to be as much , so hence for say a cheap repaint it’s ideal , or something like this to cut cost but to add that extra layer of protection we can clear it and it’s a quicker process
In the USA it's called single stage
If you cut through the clear wouldn't it show different to the green
How do we get in touch with the powder coat guy?
Does he do wheels in solid gloss?
What about small parts and bike frames?
He does everything mate yes and tmspecialistcoatings@gmail.com
Can you show all products used to get the job done ? You dont give a full underneath paint job ?
Hi Peter we have other video that cover this aspect there is only so much I can put into one video and still have it interesting and not too long this was genuinely a focus on this one process
What gun tip is best suit for this job
1.3 preferably mate
Hey T...link to sponsor doesn't seem to be working...maybe it's my phone but maybe have a look just incase 😉
Just checked mate all works fine lol so I have no clue mate 🤷♂️
What it is the touch dry time for 2k direct gloss? I'm looking at hiring a booth but need to work out how long I would need it for.
depends on the gloss the hardener the temp alsorts mate
Saludos desde Colombia.Master.
What do you think about 2 coats of clear over 2 coats of dg? I’d be worried about going through that one coat of clear while denibbing and polishing
You could but you’d probably need to extend your flash off times for each coat that little bit more so say maybe 15 mins per coat
@@TonysRefinishingTV thanks man. I’ll try that 👌
So you put on single stage urethane paint? (not base coat, clear coat)??
Then put on a regular clear coat from the base coat, clear coat stuff?
Can it be any clear coat you would normally use for base clear, as long as its from the same manufacturer like ppg?
Yes mate and doesn’t need to be the same manufacturer we can use any automotive clear over the direct gloss / single stage we use
@@TonysRefinishingTV thanks for the quick response! Looks awesome! Great work.
I have an 81 Camaro Z28 I've been working on for 16 years (off and on). I did all of the body work but now it's been in the paint shop for the last 8 weeks or so (Windsor, Ontario, Canada.)
So yeah, it's been a minute or 2 since I drove that beast.
On the home stretch now!
It's going to be 1969 gm lemans blue. Can't wait.
Sounds awesome man hope all goes well woth the rest of your project man
Is there a black direct gloss & is it good for Alloy wheels? Thanks
Yes and yes mate lol , you can get 2k gloss in any solid colour
Smoooooooth :)
Thanks capn
What's the advantage of doing this versus using base coat then clear?
Cost , time , paint coverage , reduced risk of reaction on old panels like these there’s quite a few tbh
@@TonysRefinishingTV Thanks, Tony. Greetings from the USA. Happy Holidays!!
Thanks buddy and you too mate have a nice time with your family and friends over the holidays
What spraygun are you using for this project it's cool.
sagola 4600 dvr clear but my own personalised one
@@TonysRefinishingTV Is that 1.2 or 1.3
1.3xl buddy
Are these Sagola guns for sale somewhere? Looks great!
Do you mean this particular design or the sagolas in general
@@TonysRefinishingTV I mean that particular design
It’s not available it’s my own one off design
@@TonysRefinishingTV I really like it
Thankyou
How does the Multimix 2 clear stand up against the Final Systems Ultimate clear you used a few videos ago?
I’ve not quite got enough use to comment on it yet mate but il do a review soon
@@TonysRefinishingTV cheers mate. This idea of throwing a clear over 2K gloss is a game changer 😬
Haha been doing it years just think it’s adds a nicer gloss and a tad more protection while keeping cost down
@@TonysRefinishingTV it’s so obvious now I’ve seen you do it but it’s never occurred to me how good it is for durability 😂 🤦🏼♂️
It’s the little things like that buddy that can make the difference I guess I watch a lot of paint guys do there stuff for the same reason every now and again you pick up that one thing you wouldn’t have thought of lol
British people pronounce paint Booth really funny love the British accent
Thanks I think lol 😂
I would have painted the under side of the fuel tank, mudguard, fairing etc, first. Nice gloss off the gun.
There getting blacked out inside mate
Hi Tony was it multi mix clear ? We’re can I buy it thank great video
Yes as I explained in the video and again I said in the video there is a link in the description
@@TonysRefinishingTV sorry couldn’t find the link .... not very good with this sort thing
Have you found it now buddy
@@TonysRefinishingTV couldn’t see it//// I’m guessing multi mix from sponsors
spsupplies.co.uk/product/multi-clear-2k-hs-clearcoat-7-5l-kit/
Nice
Thanks Tim
How did you get that sagola customized?🤔
My other business does custom guns
😍
What hardner are you using with the multimix?
The multimix fast mate
@@TonysRefinishingTV cheers mate. Of you was doing a normal job.
Base and clear, do you do 2 full wet coats?
One light coat then one wet coat mate it’s a good hs clear so you don’t need to overload it
@@TonysRefinishingTV I normally use either novol 590 or spectral 525-00 so be nice to find a cheaper option that's decent there both 1.5 coats
It’s well worth a try mate honestly just as I say don’t overload it , il be popping a review up on it soon
I didn't know Tony name came from England
Yes buddy from 🇬🇧 Uk 🇬🇧
Why is it the GPZ is called the GP Zed and the Corvette Zo6 is called the Zed 06 overseas ? There's no Zed, it's just z. 🤣👍🏼
👍👍👍👍
👍28 / 5,000
No need to polish anymore?
Tony, where are you based?
Nantwich in Cheshire
I've watched a lot of your show's great paint work but it's very disappointing not to see the finished cars/motorbicycles Anthony.
I’m sorry about that but it’s not always possible to do so I have two businesses to run and this channel to run and edit for as well as a family I can only do so much
Well@@TonysRefinishingTVthats understandable i'm staying, God bless.
Plus some mate we just don’t see finished ourselves I’m afraid like this one it was just back to the customer as panels not a rebuilt bike
Are you selling your own guns yet tony
Not yet mate
Great video Tony thank you
Your welcome fella
