My dad died Nov 18, 2020 he did this for a living for 40+ years and this reminds me of him I started working with him when I was 8 years old and he taught me so much he taught me to be a man at a young age thank you dad
"I wouldn't recommend doing this on your whole car" Half of the people watching this video looked it up cuz they're planning on painting they're whole car
I clicked in because I just happen to haves crates of old model kit spraycans with no current use. Been watching lowrider films - considering doing our old truck like a giant tortoise.
Im 14 years old and I want to be an auto paint technician when I’m older and recently my mom got into a car accident and so she didn’t know what to do and I told her me and my dad could fix it and so we did and I was the one who painted her car and I turned out nice like if nothing happened

Did a DIY spray can job on my trunk over five years ago and it still matches the rest of my car. Time for the hood! Thanks for the tips, it's great to see a professional using products we can actually buy and use
Just wanted to say thank you for your videos on spraying with rattle cans. I just finished my 2009 V6 Honda Accord and watching your video on spraying the 2k clear coat really helped me get a good finish. It took several tries and I finally got it right this past Monday. I had very little paint correction after I finished and using the Buflex, Assilex products, (worth every penny), I am very pleased with the results. I am a 61yo female who has never done this but was fixing previous body shop work that failed so I figured why not try to do it myself. I did it and am quite proud of the job I did. Thanks for giving me the confidence to even try. That is what I got from your videos. Thanks again.
Wow I’m stoked! I’ve got a 69 Bronco I could do after the old paint is gone. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It’s still going off road. I’d hate to bump an 8G job on a tree.
After years of both professional and driveway jobs, I can honestly say that duplicolor stuff is legit. I have never used a rattle can clear coat to the same effect though. It’s a rather temperature and humidity sensitive kind of thing, I have found it best to mix and spray my own, adjusting my mix to suit the atmosphere. That being said, I was blissfully unaware of that stuff from eastwood and am eager to give it a try.
Wow... Spent about an hour looking for a decent video... THIS is the one. Thank you guys. Turned out impeccable, that is a truly professional rattle can spray job. Kudos.
I recently bought a low miles 99 Jaguar xj8 that had been sitting in the Nevada sun for maybe 2 to 3 years , the roof and trunk areas got fried ! and decided to give my best shot using "rattle cans" and this video was exactly what I needed as a "how to" guide . I purchased the paint from Spectral paints in Illinois , superb paint match and several cans of Eastwoods 2k clear and it WORKED ! is it perfect no , is it close to a factory finish, oh YES IT IS ! I found many coats of Eastwoods clear was the key to satisfactory results , I also wet sanded and buffed using a D.A sander with a mild compound which produced the desired result , however without this excellent video I would never have got the desired result I was looking for , so one more time thanks ! Scotty.
Now that’s right up my alley! I’ve been doing rattle cans for years . Currently painting my 1984 Ford F-250 two tone black mid panels with silver hood , and top bed rails . Love the look of acrylic over enamel paint . As my grand farther said to me years ago as a boy pour men have pour ways . Yep he was right ... Thank you for doing it my way . DR
Doug Reeves I’ve always been taught, a bad craftsmen or engineer blames his tools, the video proves you can get anything to be great with the right skill
While I initially had the same reaction, during the reveal you could see the metallic was different so as he panned around the bottom of the fender behind the tires looked lighter than the door next to it. Of course, that could just be an artifact of the lighting, video and my particular screen combined and it might be easier or harder to see IRL, but it does point out that something is wrong.
A hundred years ago, when I was a juvenile delinquent, I repainted a lot of bicycles and I learned that using long sweeping strokes always gave the best results. You couldn't tell my work from the factory paint. This video has convinced me to go ahead and fix and paint over the chips from road rocks on the front of my beloved 2003 Tacoma.. Should be way easier because it's just factory super white. I'm slowly restoring it to what it was when I bought it. I plan on keeping it forever.
It’s heartening to see that good results are possible with a rattle can. DIYing something like this is honestly the appropriate level of effort for a car like the one they used in the video. A CR-V that’s 15 years old wouldn’t be worth putting actual body shop level money into.
@@elizaf4663 that depends on if your vehicle has sentimental value to you or not. Any item no matter what it is, if it’s valuable in your eyes, you will do what you can to preserve said item. No matter the cost. In essence, it’s up to each owner to decide if it’s “worth” paying to have it done and how much your willing to pay to have it done.
@@cartunenetwork8264 There are people out there that don't try to screw one over. Then there are the rest of them. Yes my car has sentimental value and I do know the difference when they're trying to play me for a fool and have a desire to hopefully make their mortgage payment off of my one service!
As an autobody guy, im honestly suprised how good the duplicolor color matches to the existing paint without blending or anything. I still think your better off if you dont have a compressor and need to use a rattle can, find a paint store, or even some napas can mix basecoat and put it in a rattle can for you. And then put the 2k clear over that.
As I understand it, base coat/clear coat paints are kinda weird. First after preparing your area, naturally by covering what you don't want over sprayed, your surface down to bare metal, tack rage it, and spray your primer on the area. After the primer has dried, time to sand down the primer, and apply yet another coat of primer. Sanding each coat down after tack raging them gives the primer and the paint, gives you to that step, adhesion for each coat applied so that the paint will adhere to the prepared surface, this is whare your real, true work begins and is at, as each coat, weather it be primer or paint, they both have to be scratched down,(sanded down) before each additional coat is applied, and naturally, tack ragged to keep the surface clean before applying the very next coat of primer, and or final coats of paint. The final coat of paint looks to be beautifully completed, however, its, not! You have to still scratch the paint down, tack rag it, then spray your final coat of clear coat, which then, brings out the shine and completion of your work. This is why I say base coat/clear coat is weird, as even though each coat appers really beautifully done with a beautiful looking shine, it isn't done at all, as it STILL has to be scratched down, tack ragged once again and the final coat of clear coat then gets applied, which, THEN brings out your final brilliance and shine of your completed work. The only advantage to base coat/clear coat painting is that in two hours or so time, you can actually wax your car or truck, whare as acrylic enamel painting, the process is the same with each primer coat sanded, then the acrylic enamel paint applied , you can't wax your vehicle at all for more than 6 months until the paint is throughly dried. This is why they put painted acrylic enamel painted cars and trucks in a paint booth and afterward "bake"thrm for a time before driving them out onto a delivery truck to be delivered to their individual distribution centers for selling purposes, and also they sit outside in the sunlight to bake them even further to harden the paint even more so before the final selling of the vehicle occurs. .in the end, weather acrylic enamel paint or base coat/clear coat paint, they BOTH end up rusted and rotted through due to certain environmental conditions that exist throughout various parts and areas of the country.
@@ideaoverload910 I am in the UK and found a business online that mixes to your exact paint code. They buy in cans already with the propellant, then mix the paint and use a machine to add the paint to the can through the pipe at the top.
Thank you! This is one of the best tutorials I've seen on UA-cam. You explained everything well and clearly. I got to see exactly how, what techniques, you used to prep and spray the paint. My "rattle can" technique is okay, but you showed me the correct method. I took notes and am prepared for my next spray paint job.
Looks great and want to try , although I Couldn't help but notice that the booth was used for more than lighting as you said.The exhaust was clearly on thus helping with a potential over spray issue that you will more than likely have. Am I correct in think so?
I love the 2KClear in a can. I repainted my motorcycle with rustoleum rattle cans and coated it with the 2KClear in a can. Amazing results, but in order to get a good paint job, the prep work has to also be just as good if not better than the paint job itself. I also use Sprayaway glass cleaner for prepping and cleaning.
This was an excellent "service" video for all of us that have limit knowledge of professional processes, but still need to continually fix our children's cars... like, all the time. Thank you for making sense out of all the previous unexplained terminology and concepts. Thank You!
Looks great. In regards to the fan I have placed the can in hot water prior spraying to increase the can pressure, it creates a better atomization, and smoother finish.
Great, great video man, thank you so much! I have to paint a spoiler and this is EXACTLY what I needed. Clear, no BS or wasting time with jibber jabber. Just a pro making things possible for the average guy with a little mechanical aptitude and some common sense. Awesome !!
My Grandpa told me a story about when he first painted his car with a Paint Brush and regular paint and then he used vegetable oil to make it shine 😆 i miss you Abuelo And All those great stories
How cool. I've always favored the creative approach.... In the mid 60s, my dad roller painted a 56 Chevy wagon with a gallon of mint green industrial coating used for lining railroad tanker cars He found it on a public dock where he had been fishing. He poured it on the roof, let self flatten and it dried hard and smooth as glass. Came out looking better than anything he ever paid Earl Schieb to do...
I saw a dude in cuba painting an old ford with a paint roller and using some sort of wood varnish as a clear coat and i shit you not it came out amazing... made my vacation absolutely worth it
yeah, always long pieces of tape. each piece of tape doesn't completely stick / lay flat / seal the gap at the edge of the piece underneath it and you will get color etc that will make it between / under that overlap/ gap .
I get better and better at my paint jobs thanks to your videos. Especially the movement of the spray can, move it just like a gun, always moving in a steady rhythm with a little overlay. Thank you for all the awesome advice, its really impressive to watch a professional work. Killer paint booth by the way. I wish I could do this for a living
Brian just want to say thank you for the content. I was able to save my self thousands of dollars with the tips and tricks you have shown here. Saved my truck from rusting out. So thank you.
Thats an issue with the shop I used to work at is that the painter was too good and most of the cars were 15+ years old and couldn't get the 'like new' shine back so he would try and do a worse job so it wasn't so well done that it looked out of place, but well enough that it'd be durable and blend in well. I had him clearcoat my car for the same reason, the hood was done too well though and looked out of place, but the rest blended well
Looks great. Done this on my Ram Truck. I did the whole hood. Sanded off the clear coat that was peeling, but not all the clear was peeling. I sanded back to good clear coat, then primered the area with filler primer and sanded it smooth to the old clear. Used Duplicolor Patriot Blue, was a good match, painted the whole hood. Then used 1K Duplicolor clear DAL1695. wet sanded with 1500 grit. It did need to be polished to shine well. Did not look great like the 2K clear you used until I polished it with a rotary buffer. Never sand metal flake pint, it changes the appearance, only sand and work with clear coat. I am very happy with my paint job for the hood. Have done panel touchups using same technique and the color match is good to the OEM paint. IF you do not shake the can you will change the ratio of flake to paint and screw up the color.
That was INSANE. If he had told me the SUV had its fenders repainted with spray cans, I'd immediately say "Bullsh*t!!" (assuming I had never seen the video)
Yeah i thought the same, im a spraypainter i probably would have gone into the next panel but he seems to have nailed it, or is my colour matching just shit😐
One of my parents friends (an accountant 🙄) did that, he painted his Toyota Cressida with brown house paint and a really cheap brush that left bristles behind in the paint work...looked absolutely terrible!
John O probably because it looked like 💩 poo! And the latex grey above is gross too! There are thousands of colors and the 2 people you guys know picked just blah & barf to paint their vehicles.
Those 2004-2008 generation Acura TL wheels look PERFECT on older Hondas. I have them on my wife's 2006 Accord and it completely transformed the car's appearance.
That's amazing.. when I was younger I used to rattle can some of my cars. If you prep it, and spray it properly like you just did, it comes out great. I actually had people ask me a few times who sprayed my cars flat black because it looked decent, and they would laugh when I informed them I did it in my back yard with spray cans LOL.
I remember spraying some engine covers or something with spray can as a teen and when it was fully cured and dry rubbing it out with rubbing compound and then waxing it. It worked pretty good. Long as you put on enough paint.
Painted my friendd rusty truck in highschool with red rustoleum cans. Basic prep and it looked really good afterwards but his dad sprayed on a clear coat with a gun and it looked damn good. People didnt believe it was spray cans
Had a car in 70s I spray canned satin black and my younger brother taped flames pretty good I painted them white then yellow and orange fluorescent it was awesome looking
I actually did this on my bmw roof. Came out amazing (done it more than once in the past lol) You so have some great tips im going to use for the next project!
Just bought a 06 Tacoma that saw a lot of sun (no rust!) and the roof and hood are really bleached out. This is just the teaching I need. I’ll be watching it probably 8 more times once it gets warm enough to paint in my un-heated shop. Thanks for the great work y’all.
I've done a few rattle Rod's. Extremely stressful, especially in the state of FLORIDA.the overspray cures so fast, you have to do very tiny sections. ( Or sand and repaint the entire car ) some colors apply better than others.
I think much of it is the paint booth, doing it in a garage or outside no matter how good of equipment you have, and also the prep. I would challenge you do this in a DIY setting :) maybe a garage or even outside for experiment
First of all thank you for the knowledge conveyed to us hobbyists. Stumbled on your channel a few days ago but spent the last 3 days watching all your videos. WoW what knowledge. I am not a painter but a hobbyist detailer, just doing my own and lots and lots of friends cars. I am 60 years old and been doing detailing for the last 10 years. Seeing paint defects was always my curiosity as to why and now I have a general idea as to the why and how.. Anyway please keep them coming as my thirst for knowledge is still on the high side. I prefer watching your vids than reading in a handbook/magazine. Apologies for the long post but I just want to say thank you from the little island in the Med - Malta and best regards to you Sir.
You know a person is a highly skilled pro when they make it look so easy you think you could do it too. A LOT of years of experience are pressing that paint can trigger.
Man, this was a great video. You know, we tend to shy away from cans just because it seems so ... cheap. But you show that you can do some great spot work with one. Thanks for this video.
I literally did this a week ago on my red CRV and it turned out beautiful! I did learned a lot more tips from you so im atempting this on my green Honda Accord😊😊
My qx4 is harbor blue metallic, and 'Spray max 2k clear glamour' was all i could find after using automotive touchup brand paint and it turned out way better than I thought was possible from rattle cans! All thanks to your videos!
I know this is an old video, but I have to say, you make it look easy! Great job! I painted the roof of my black Mustang, using this video as a guide, and wow, it's not anywhere near as easy as you make it look! Mine came out "ok", but from now on, I'm leaving auto paint to the pros!
A controlled environment and years of experience makes a big difference in finish. If you're doing this at home, some wet sanding and a good polishing compound afterwards will do wonders.
Instant subscribe. Well done on the video man. I mean that. No passive aggressive digs on cheap stuff or peoples products or practices. Just a video we can all enjoy and a video showing how a little knowledge can go a long way. Car looks great. Keep up the good work
Thank you for giving your audience the diy perspective. I’m new to painting and trying to create a spreadsheet of all materials needed. Would be helpful if you had a pdf or some type of downloadable list .
Dude..........you don't need a spread sheet, PDF or anything else of that fancy teck stuff. Just watch the video enough times to write down, with something old fashioned, like a pencil and paper and make a list of what is needed. Like the man said at the end, "Don't over think it. It's only paint." 😁😁😁 Have a good one. And good luck however you do it !
I agree. I put together a quick list when I watched it the second time. I cant upload a pdf easily but Hopefully this helps you, I may have missed something so double check, but this should be a good start for you. After the checklist is the parts list as well. Clean Car Tape off Panels Scuff down with Maroon pad Clean with Wax and grease remover Wipe with Sprayaway Cover car in plastic, then cut holes for where you are painting More tape Use Water based sprayaway cleaner wipe with Tack cloth Spray Primer, wait 15 minutes Spray 2nd primer coat, wait 15 minutes Take maroon pad, wrap it around the 600 grit, for curvature Use sand paper wrapped in pad to sand down, USE LOTS OF WATER Add paper not over plastic before applying base coat Use tack cloth on Primer again Spray Base coat, 4 inches away, long strokes 10 Minutes between coats Apply 2nd coat, long strokes, overlap by 25% between rows Wait 10 Minutes For 3rd coat, spray in smaller quadrants, quick movements Apply a Dust coat, long strokes, 8 inches away Wait 15 minutes Activate Cleamax 2K primer Apply 1st Coat, 4-5inches away, long strokes Keep a fast and even pace 1st coat will look uneven Wait 10 minutes Apply second coat, be patient, paint will start to look smoother Wait 10 minutes Apply 3rdcoat, long and even strokes Wait for it to dry, remove Parts List: Primer Base Coat 2K Clear Max Clearcoat Painter Tape Plastic (With Tape) Paper or newspaper Tack Cloth Maroon Sanding pads 600/1000/1500 Grit SprayAway Glass Cleaner
THANK YOUUUU! I just bought my car and I need to paint the hood and roof. My uncle owns his own autobody shop and was the 1st. to talk smack about me not owning a car but when I asked for help and advice with choosing a car he told me to google it. So now I am on my own with learning how to paint my own car and your video has put me on the right track 😊❤❤❤❤
So much could go wrong when repainting the hood and roof. That is alot of paint, plus depending on the damage, it may just be worth the money to consult with your uncle on what you can do. Spray painting can do alot, but like the start of the video said, for the best quality work, follow OEM recommendation and materials.
Old expression from the 20th century: “ that was about as exciting as watching paint dry…“ Me watching Paint Society videos like a happy sponge: ☺🙌🍺 Thank you guys so much for putting this together using actual over-the-counter products. It’s truly amazing what a difference a basic rattle canned job can do when your prep and materials are on point. ❤
I use Dupli Color products. I have been painting by rattle can since I was 13 years old. Nothing lays down and leaves a nicer finish from a rattle can than Dupli Color. I touched up my magnetic red 2000 Corvette and no one could spot where I did the touch. Awesome product.
I really appreciate how professional you are, how you are helping average ordinary people like myself in trying to get professional results at home, thanks very much 😊.
My issue with those is they maybe only have 75% of the can volume in clearcoat to allow room for the hardener capsule inside. So they run out quick. Also I noticed they tend to lose pressure at about half empty and it affects the finish. The 48hr potlife once activated sucks too. You gotta plan out ahead how much you material are clearcoating so that you have enough that you would use the whole can in 1 go.
I found this video after deciding to fix my own car and needing to paint the parts myself. Thanks so much. I needed the confidence and know how and now I have them.
Finally someone besides myself that sees the uses of SprayWay glass cleaner. That stuff is alcohol based so it evaporates really quick. It takes nicotine out of headliners, works great on cleaning canvas convertible tops. It also makes it easier to put silicone couplers on Turbo charge pipes and has the added bonus of promoting adhesion of the silicone to the aluminum pipe which reduces the pipes blowing apart. You can clean an entire car using 1 roll of Scott's blue shop towels and a couple cans of SprayWay. When the towels get soaked hang them up for 10-15 minutes in the sun and they will be bone dry and ready to be used again.
There's a saying in the photography world that a good photographer with the worst camera will still produce better photos than a bad photographer with the best camera. If this video is any indication, I guess that the same principle holds true in the paint world too. That was a mind-blowingly good paint job 🤘
Please never do this, it's very dangerous!!! I used to do this had the idea from a tech article I read in Super Chevy. I had a spray can rupture and it came up out my hand as I was shaking it and took out my left eye. Destroyed it. Something told in the back of my head it was dangerous don't do it, but I said others have it to work . I regret that move til this day.
Seeing your work with the paint rattle can, the fenders look awesome. I can only imagine what your work looks like with a spray gun. I'm sure it looks awesome. Thanks for you video.

Do you not paint the back side of the fender? My first time painting a front fender. It's a black after-market fender.
Thats the first time i have ever seen duplicolor actually match the oem color .
Very true! I tired correction paint on my sebring with the same color code and that was a fail!
The sun and weather change the paint on your car from when it was new.
While I initially had the same reaction, during the reveal you could see the metallic was different so as he panned around the bottom of the fender behind the tires looked lighter than the door next to it. Of course, that could just be an artifact of the lighting, video and my particular screen combined and it might be easier or harder to see IRL, but it does point out that something is wrong.
@@mpikas from my experience, if it looks bad on camera it will look horrendous in person.
#FACTS
This is like watching an artist draw with a sharpie. Still an artist.
It's like Bob Ross 😝🤣🤣🤣
A hundred years ago, when I was a juvenile delinquent, I repainted a lot of bicycles and I learned that using long sweeping strokes always gave the best results. You couldn't tell my work from the factory paint.
This video has convinced me to go ahead and fix and paint over the chips from road rocks on the front of my beloved 2003 Tacoma.. Should be way easier because it's just factory super white. I'm slowly restoring it to what it was when I bought it. I plan on keeping it forever.
Stealing bikes and changing its colour. Not judging. We have all done things we are not proud of.
Hahaha thanks fer the story mayte. Your Tacoma a 4 door?
It’s heartening to see that good results are possible with a rattle can. DIYing something like this is honestly the appropriate level of effort for a car like the one they used in the video. A CR-V that’s 15 years old wouldn’t be worth putting actual body shop level money into.
Yep, like my car is 24 years old and I'm simply not paying the kind of money that is charged in a body shop. No not hardly!
Is a honda it is worth it
@@angelrodriguez6973 It isn't
@@elizaf4663 that depends on if your vehicle has sentimental value to you or not. Any item no matter what it is, if it’s valuable in your eyes, you will do what you can to preserve said item. No matter the cost. In essence, it’s up to each owner to decide if it’s “worth” paying to have it done and how much your willing to pay to have it done.
@@cartunenetwork8264 There are people out there that don't try to screw one over. Then there are the rest of them. Yes my car has sentimental value and I do know the difference when they're trying to play me for a fool and have a desire to hopefully make their mortgage payment off of my one service!
It’s been 9 months since I saw this video, and I still can’t believe how perfect you did it.
As an autobody guy, im honestly suprised how good the duplicolor color matches to the existing paint without blending or anything. I still think your better off if you dont have a compressor and need to use a rattle can, find a paint store, or even some napas can mix basecoat and put it in a rattle can for you. And then put the 2k clear over that.
Is it okay to spray 2K clear over acrylic base color?
As I understand it, base coat/clear coat paints are kinda weird. First after preparing your area, naturally by covering what you don't want over sprayed, your surface down to bare metal, tack rage it, and spray your primer on the area. After the primer has dried, time to sand down the primer, and apply yet another coat of primer. Sanding each coat down after tack raging them gives the primer and the paint, gives you to that step, adhesion for each coat applied so that the paint will adhere to the prepared surface, this is whare your real, true work begins and is at, as each coat, weather it be primer or paint, they both have to be scratched down,(sanded down) before each additional coat is applied, and naturally, tack ragged to keep the surface clean before applying the very next coat of primer, and or final coats of paint. The final coat of paint looks to be beautifully completed, however, its, not! You have to still scratch the paint down, tack rag it, then spray your final coat of clear coat, which then, brings out the shine and completion of your work. This is why I say base coat/clear coat is weird, as even though each coat appers really beautifully done with a beautiful looking shine, it isn't done at all, as it STILL has to be scratched down, tack ragged once again and the final coat of clear coat then gets applied, which, THEN brings out your final brilliance and shine of your completed work. The only advantage to base coat/clear coat painting is that in two hours or so time, you can actually wax your car or truck, whare as acrylic enamel painting, the process is the same with each primer coat sanded, then the acrylic enamel paint applied , you can't wax your vehicle at all for more than 6 months until the paint is throughly dried. This is why they put painted acrylic enamel painted cars and trucks in a paint booth and afterward "bake"thrm for a time before driving them out onto a delivery truck to be delivered to their individual distribution centers for selling purposes, and also they sit outside in the sunlight to bake them even further to harden the paint even more so before the final selling of the vehicle occurs. .in the end, weather acrylic enamel paint or base coat/clear coat paint, they BOTH end up rusted and rotted through due to certain environmental conditions that exist throughout various parts and areas of the country.
Are you sure that auto parts stores can put paint inside of a rattle can? I thought they come pre made only.
@@ideaoverload910 I am in the UK and found a business online that mixes to your exact paint code. They buy in cans already with the propellant, then mix the paint and use a machine to add the paint to the can through the pipe at the top.
@@tigershoot wow, that’s news to me! Great idea
Thank you! This is one of the best tutorials I've seen on UA-cam. You explained everything well and clearly. I got to see exactly how, what techniques, you used to prep and spray the paint. My "rattle can" technique is okay, but you showed me the correct method. I took notes and am prepared for my next spray paint job.
After watching this guy non stop I painted for the first time and came out amazing!
The whole car or ?? 🙂
Me too being doing my research and Brian is such a help he’s the man.
CAME OUT SO GOOOD!!!!
Time to attempt that lip again?
Looks great and want to try , although I Couldn't help but notice that the booth was used for more than lighting as you said.The exhaust was clearly on thus helping with a potential over spray issue that you will more than likely have. Am I correct in think so?
@@charlesrouth9549 you can't paint indoors and not have an exhaust fan on
@@bigdfitness5020 you can if you're a computer.
@@bigdfitness5020 Why not?
I love the 2KClear in a can. I repainted my motorcycle with rustoleum rattle cans and coated it with the 2KClear in a can. Amazing results, but in order to get a good paint job, the prep work has to also be just as good if not better than the paint job itself. I also use Sprayaway glass cleaner for prepping and cleaning.
This was an excellent "service" video for all of us that have limit knowledge of professional processes, but still need to continually fix our children's cars... like, all the time. Thank you for making sense out of all the previous unexplained terminology and concepts. Thank You!
I'm envious. Your rattle can job Looks better than my single stage with a gun. Great job. I've learned a lot of my mistakes through you 😁
"Don't overthink it, it's just paint" That's what inspired me to start the project
Why no sanding in between coats?
Howd ya project turn out
@@allenv4431 not as great as I wanted but now im obsessed so I'm taking in new projects left and right. I think I found my career
@@brentfig4 this career is beautiful bro , this is where the money is at too
Looks great. In regards to the fan I have placed the can in hot water prior spraying to increase the can pressure, it creates a better atomization, and smoother finish.

Damn that’s smart thinking right... gotta salute you for that
One of the dudes from Pimp My Ride taught me that. I just leave them in the sun for a little while.
Chrisfix taught me that also.
Great, great video man, thank you so much! I have to paint a spoiler and this is EXACTLY what I needed. Clear, no BS or wasting time with jibber jabber. Just a pro making things possible for the average guy with a little mechanical aptitude and some common sense. Awesome !!
My Grandpa told me a story about when he first painted his car with a Paint Brush and regular paint and then he used vegetable oil to make it shine 😆 i miss you Abuelo And All those great stories
How cool. I've always favored the creative approach.... In the mid 60s, my dad roller painted a 56 Chevy wagon with a gallon of mint green industrial coating used for lining railroad tanker cars He found it on a public dock where he had been fishing. He poured it on the roof, let self flatten and it dried hard and smooth as glass. Came out looking better than anything he ever paid Earl Schieb to do...
Them OG's wasn't playing back in the days, They made it work!
My dad shined his car with motor oil back when he was in college
Before UA-cam lol
I saw a dude in cuba painting an old ford with a paint roller and using some sort of wood varnish as a clear coat and i shit you not it came out amazing... made my vacation absolutely worth it
When you're a pro, even rattle cans come out perfect!
and a spray booth
@Jerk Of All Trades I regularly use both. To me there's no question about it. The rattle can is harder to get the results you want.
@@robertthomas5906 yes but what he just did the normal citizen couldn't tell what he painted the panel with...it looks great for just cans...
@Jerk Of All Trades Super false.
@@burtnobody1743 That's because hes good at it. The average person cant spray for shit so their result wont be anywhere near as good as this car.
Tip. Dont use lots of short pieces of tape. Try to use long pieces of tape, it’s much easier to remove later.
good point
Also less opportunity for bleed or tape flying off and landing in fresh paint (this may or may not have happened to me).
yeah, always long pieces of tape. each piece of tape doesn't completely stick / lay flat / seal the gap at the edge of the piece underneath it and you will get color etc that will make it between / under that overlap/ gap .
That only work if you wat to tape a straight line
@@mule666 use smaller width tape and you can make corners and curves without needing to stop or use multiple pieces.
I get better and better at my paint jobs thanks to your videos. Especially the movement of the spray can, move it just like a gun, always moving in a steady rhythm with a little overlay. Thank you for all the awesome advice, its really impressive to watch a professional work. Killer paint booth by the way. I wish I could do this for a living
Brian just want to say thank you for the content. I was able to save my self thousands of dollars with the tips and tricks you have shown here. Saved my truck from rusting out. So thank you.
That’s awesome. So glad to hear
This is one of the best spray painting tutorials I've ever seen. Thanks!
Facts
The front fenders looked better than the rest of the car.
Thats an issue with the shop I used to work at is that the painter was too good and most of the cars were 15+ years old and couldn't get the 'like new' shine back so he would try and do a worse job so it wasn't so well done that it looked out of place, but well enough that it'd be durable and blend in well.
I had him clearcoat my car for the same reason, the hood was done too well though and looked out of place, but the rest blended well
asassin asa I hope to be “too good one day” lol.
Looks great. Done this on my Ram Truck. I did the whole hood. Sanded off the clear coat that was peeling, but not all the clear was peeling. I sanded back to good clear coat, then primered the area with filler primer and sanded it smooth to the old clear. Used Duplicolor Patriot Blue, was a good match, painted the whole hood. Then used 1K Duplicolor clear DAL1695. wet sanded with 1500 grit. It did need to be polished to shine well. Did not look great like the 2K clear you used until I polished it with a rotary buffer. Never sand metal flake pint, it changes the appearance, only sand and work with clear coat. I am very happy with my paint job for the hood. Have done panel touchups using same technique and the color match is good to the OEM paint. IF you do not shake the can you will change the ratio of flake to paint and screw up the color.
Nice i have a patriot blue 04 ram
I guess like anything else, it isn't necessarily the tool, it's whether the person behind it knows what they are doing. Awesome paint job.
That was INSANE. If he had told me the SUV had its fenders repainted with spray cans, I'd immediately say "Bullsh*t!!" (assuming I had never seen the video)
I’m surprised it matched that good without blending the other panels. Looks great!
Yeah i thought the same, im a spraypainter i probably would have gone into the next panel but he seems to have nailed it, or is my colour matching just shit😐
Seemed like it didn't match too well until they buffed the whole thing, but yeah it looks great after
I knew a guy that painted his his whole car with house paint and a paint brush. The brush marks gave it a certain elegance.
ME TOO! This guy painted his van with gray latex house paint.... it was crazy.
Shouldve used a roller
I heard using a roller is a great way to paint a car, too! Wonder how that would turn out
One of my parents friends (an accountant 🙄) did that, he painted his Toyota Cressida with brown house paint and a really cheap brush that left bristles behind in the paint work...looked absolutely terrible!
John O probably because it looked like 💩 poo! And the latex grey above is gross too! There are thousands of colors and the 2 people you guys know picked just blah & barf to paint their vehicles.
Those 2004-2008 generation Acura TL wheels look PERFECT on older Hondas. I have them on my wife's 2006 Accord and it completely transformed the car's appearance.
WOW BRO, I'M IMPRESSED. TO BE HONEST THIS IS THE BEST SPRAY PAINT JOB I HAVE EVER SEEN. PERIOD
That's amazing.. when I was younger I used to rattle can some of my cars. If you prep it, and spray it properly like you just did, it comes out great. I actually had people ask me a few times who sprayed my cars flat black because it looked decent, and they would laugh when I informed them I did it in my back yard with spray cans LOL.
Impatience is what gets 99% of the people using spray paint. For some reason they want to lay it down in one coat, One drip filled coat.
I remember spraying some engine covers or something with spray can as a teen and when it was fully cured and dry rubbing it out with rubbing compound and then waxing it. It worked pretty good. Long as you put on enough paint.
Googleindootourdoorwheelchaits
Painted my friendd rusty truck in highschool with red rustoleum cans. Basic prep and it looked really good afterwards but his dad sprayed on a clear coat with a gun and it looked damn good. People didnt believe it was spray cans
Had a car in 70s I spray canned satin black and my younger brother taped flames pretty good I painted them white then yellow and orange fluorescent it was awesome looking
I actually did this on my bmw roof. Came out amazing (done it more than once in the past lol) You so have some great tips im going to use for the next project!
Just bought a 06 Tacoma that saw a lot of sun (no rust!) and the roof and hood are really bleached out. This is just the teaching I need. I’ll be watching it probably 8 more times once it gets warm enough to paint in my un-heated shop. Thanks for the great work y’all.
dam! Those TL rims though! In all seriousness,.. I never seen rattle can look that good. Nice work! I'm inspired.
Wheels!!! 🤦♂️
You say don’t but, I totally want to see this on an entire car.
Yes.
True that
I've done a few rattle Rod's. Extremely stressful, especially in the state of FLORIDA.the overspray cures so fast, you have to do very tiny sections. ( Or sand and repaint the entire car ) some colors apply better than others.
Or you can roll and tip hardened alkyd enamel on a car like your painting a boat. Depending on the weather of course.
Do it! No 🏀 🏈 ⚽️!
I think much of it is the paint booth, doing it in a garage or outside no matter how good of equipment you have, and also the prep. I would challenge you do this in a DIY setting :) maybe a garage or even outside for experiment
Thank you for helping guys like me. Much respect to you guys.
First of all thank you for the knowledge conveyed to us hobbyists. Stumbled on your channel a few days ago but spent the last 3 days watching all your videos. WoW what knowledge. I am not a painter but a hobbyist detailer, just doing my own and lots and lots of friends cars. I am 60 years old and been doing detailing for the last 10 years. Seeing paint defects was always my curiosity as to why and now I have a general idea as to the why and how.. Anyway please keep them coming as my thirst for knowledge is still on the high side. I prefer watching your vids than reading in a handbook/magazine. Apologies for the long post but I just want to say thank you from the little island in the Med - Malta and best regards to you Sir.
It's very refreshing to see someone still using proper grammar !
Thank you sir.
I am 71, by the way. 😁
You know a person is a highly skilled pro when they make it look so easy you think you could do it too. A LOT of years of experience are pressing that paint can trigger.
It takes proper skill to get those kind of results from cans on such a large area - respect!
Brian, I really appreciate you taking your time to teach us backyard guys some very valuable information & tips. Kudos to you brother
Man, this was a great video. You know, we tend to shy away from cans just because it seems so ... cheap. But you show that you can do some great spot work with one. Thanks for this video.
Awesome Charles!
Could you please do a plastic bumper, side skirts or anything plastic related. Wow. ..that was so impressive. True Master of Your Craft.
I literally did this a week ago on my red CRV and it turned out beautiful! I did learned a lot more tips from you so im atempting this on my green Honda Accord😊😊
This video was amazing. I never would have thought such a great result could come from basically rattle cans. Awesome and inspiring video. Bravo!
Easily the best diy paint I’ve seen.
"dont overthink it, its just paint" took me a good amount of hours and laint sprayed to figure that out
That’s craaaaazy how it looks like it’s done out of the gun. Never knew a rattle can job would be that good👍Good shit
Thank you for showing us the process! I'll be re-doing the sun-cooked paint on the roof of my truck soon.
Probably one of the impressive videos I’ve seen on UA-cam. I’m sold doing this to my dads daily’s hood that’s just primer
aww someone loves their little honda getting her all touched up .. Thanks for the tips
Wow! That's pretty damn impressive how it dried with no orange peel look from spray cans. That's a different kind of skill set right there.
My qx4 is harbor blue metallic, and 'Spray max 2k clear glamour' was all i could find after using automotive touchup brand paint and it turned out way better than I thought was possible from rattle cans! All thanks to your videos!
I know this is an old video, but I have to say, you make it look easy! Great job!
I painted the roof of my black Mustang, using this video as a guide, and wow, it's not anywhere near as easy as you make it look! Mine came out "ok", but from now on, I'm leaving auto paint to the pros!
A controlled environment and years of experience makes a big difference in finish. If you're doing this at home, some wet sanding and a good polishing compound afterwards will do wonders.
Black is 113% *THE* most difficult color to do smoothly. Absolutely unforgiving if it has any gloss at all.
Cans are no good at that angle (roofs, hoods)
I'm going to paint something. That was incredible.
Yes I am inspired. Will be painting a front fender 2015 Sierra. Ocean Blue. I can do it! I believe!! Thanks for the great instruction.
Instant subscribe. Well done on the video man. I mean that. No passive aggressive digs on cheap stuff or peoples products or practices. Just a video we can all enjoy and a video showing how a little knowledge can go a long way. Car looks great. Keep up the good work
Thank you for giving your audience the diy perspective. I’m new to painting and trying to create a spreadsheet of all materials needed. Would be helpful if you had a pdf or some type of downloadable list .
Dude..........you don't need a spread sheet, PDF or anything else of that fancy teck stuff. Just watch the video enough times to write down, with something old fashioned, like a pencil and paper and make a list of what is needed. Like the man said at the end, "Don't over think it. It's only paint." 😁😁😁 Have a good one. And good luck however you do it !
I agree. I put together a quick list when I watched it the second time. I cant upload a pdf easily but Hopefully this helps you, I may have missed something so double check, but this should be a good start for you. After the checklist is the parts list as well.

THANK YOUUUU! I just bought my car and I need to paint the hood and roof. My uncle owns his own autobody shop and was the 1st. to talk smack about me not owning a car but when I asked for help and advice with choosing a car he told me to google it. So now I am on my own with learning how to paint my own car and your video has put me on the right track 😊❤❤❤❤
So much could go wrong when repainting the hood and roof. That is alot of paint, plus depending on the damage, it may just be worth the money to consult with your uncle on what you can do. Spray painting can do alot, but like the start of the video said, for the best quality work, follow OEM recommendation and materials.

I use Dupli Color products. I have been painting by rattle can since I was 13 years old. Nothing lays down and leaves a nicer finish from a rattle can than Dupli Color. I touched up my magnetic red 2000 Corvette and no one could spot where I did the touch. Awesome product.
Dude is a straight professional even doing rattle can paint he had on a paint suit.
Its levels to the game kids knowledge is the 🔑.
We must be watching a different video because the rest of us see a dude in shop clothes, a ball cap, some gloves and a mask. Plus rattle cans.
I like how you sprayed that, it reminded me of a dot matrix printer - very precise.
Thats EXACTLY what I was just thinking!!! 😲😅
I really appreciate how professional you are, how you are helping average ordinary people like myself in trying to get professional results at home, thanks very much 😊.
That 2k clear coat is exactly what I was looking for! This all turned out so good! Bout to do most of my car!
love this video.... helped me big time on my touchup work on my ford explorer....fun learning new skills during quarantine downtime!
My issue with those is they maybe only have 75% of the can volume in clearcoat to allow room for the hardener capsule inside. So they run out quick. Also I noticed they tend to lose pressure at about half empty and it affects the finish.
The 48hr potlife once activated sucks too. You gotta plan out ahead how much you material are clearcoating so that you have enough that you would use the whole can in 1 go.
hey just want to say, You did the damn thing! impressive
I found this video after deciding to fix my own car and needing to paint the parts myself. Thanks so much. I needed the confidence and know how and now I have them.
You’re the real mvp. I’m going to give it a try on my car. Thanks!

Finally someone besides myself that sees the uses of SprayWay glass cleaner. That stuff is alcohol based so it evaporates really quick. It takes nicotine out of headliners, works great on cleaning canvas convertible tops. It also makes it easier to put silicone couplers on Turbo charge pipes and has the added bonus of promoting adhesion of the silicone to the aluminum pipe which reduces the pipes blowing apart. You can clean an entire car using 1 roll of Scott's blue shop towels and a couple cans of SprayWay. When the towels get soaked hang them up for 10-15 minutes in the sun and they will be bone dry and ready to be used again.
Finally! A whole diy video that doesn't randomly end in a shop. Full of pro tools. Ann actually diy.
There's a saying in the photography world that a good photographer with the worst camera will still produce better photos than a bad photographer with the best camera. If this video is any indication, I guess that the same principle holds true in the paint world too. That was a mind-blowingly good paint job 🤘
Don't forget u can put the cans it hot water for about an hour before spraying... raises the can pressure and creates and smoother spray
Please never do this, it's very dangerous!!!
I used to do this had the idea from a tech article I read in Super Chevy.
I had a spray can rupture and it came up out my hand as I was shaking it and took out my left eye.
Destroyed it.
Something told in the back of my head it was dangerous don't do it, but I said others have it to work . I regret that move til this day.
Seeing your work with the paint rattle can, the fenders look awesome. I can only imagine what your work looks like with a spray gun. I'm sure it looks awesome.
