They call it Soul Red Metallic for a reason. You must leave a piece of your soul in every paint job to get it correct. Definitely Not for the faint of heart or amateur. Beautiful work.
Incredible work man. As an owner with this exact paint I am scared shitless of damage because there aren't enough people like yourself with this attention to detail.
As a Miata owner, with many friends with Soul Red, the matching of paint after collision work has been very “hit or miss” . You seem to have a process that works! That outcome looks fabulous! I’ll be sure to send a link to the Miata community!
....I STARE at that color when I see it parked somewhere...the most glorious red on the market so deep that if you don't hold onto the ground you'll fall into it!!!
Great work bro! Autobody painter of 24yrs here PPG for life! Envirobase is great product no complaints its great for collision work. I still go back to dbc for overall jobs . Keep up great work brother!
Excellent job! The 2 happiest days of my life were the day my wife bought a Mazda with 46V and the day I sold it! I read after I got rid of it that Mazda had some paint issues with it chipping, not sure if that is true but the hood was so full of rock chips that I almost repainted the front clip.
They're beautiful, but unfortunately you give up some durability with pretty much any 3-stage paint. That includes pearl whites. They're a little easier to chip and more likely to fade if it's a color in the red family. Also, Im sorry to say your wife may be a tailgater. That's the most common reason for excessive rock chips in the front bumper and hood. Driving too close to veihcles in front of you. Especially semi trucks. No offense, just relaying the facts. Im sure your wife is a lovely person.
@@edjackson4389tailgating or not the rock chips are inevitable. I own a 22 MX-5, it’s my daily and being from Colorado means a ton of elevation changes. I swear I will be in the far right lane going the speed limit and a semi 100 feet a way in the far left will throw a random rock chip on my hood with the winding roads like I-70 and I-76 here. Throw that in with so much traffic and everyone blowing by you going 90. 15k miles in and I’ll probably have to get a respray soon if I don’t end up wrapping it instead
We had an MX-5 in Soul Red. Magnificent color. I was always afraid that it would get damaged and need a repaint because I KNEW it would be almost impossible to get it back to factory perfection.
Casually interested in auto paint but never gone past rattle cans (YET!). I’ve always loved that Mazda red (not the car) and wondered what was up with that paint. Now I know! Thoroughly enjoyed the process, skill, and extra steps. Subscribed and plan to watch more vids!
I am so glad these paint manufacturers are getting away from the tinted clears. 46V is so much easier now with the more concentrated transparent layers. Well done my friend!
I was very happy that Brian from Paint Society did a video where he kind of helped a little on the red Ferrari project where He introduced you to his people on his channel. I was happy seeing the work that you did on that and seeing some of the custom work you’re doing like on this car. I must say you’re a fabulous painter and really take pride in your work. I really respect that!
this was new to me. the candy is in the clear. always was in the belief that candy was layed after a base and then clear..... life is too short to learn new stuff :D
Painted my 2000 s10 race truck this color used matrix mpb lv with Ag-40 euro clear...my father in law has been painting since the early 80s and it kicked our ass... super tricky color. Walked out the entire truck like a candy paint job.and it still acted funny. Over all great paint job but completely different look then the mazda cars look.
i would never buy this color. i've heard for some accidents, insurance will total the car- the paint is that expensive and difficult to correctly lay down. this thing had a ding on 1/4 of the door, and half of the car ending up getting painted !
Cool video buddy on our system it’s the normal base then tinted mid coat then clear coat havnt don’t one for a few years now but the first one I did was pretty exciting to do.people say how scary that copper base looks on the normal candy panels lol 😂 great tips for us all buddy and quality as usual 👍👍👍
Always looking great man. Back to the days when this color first launch, its a night mare to spray. In our paint system, its not tinted clear for the candy, its just binder with concentrate red which makes it alittle easier to spray. But man, u do a great job with any paint system. 👍👍. Btw, appreciate if you can teach how to do a soft edge masking on your knees. I tried alot of times and it just didn't turn out straight enough the edge 😅
Beautiful colour and a beautiful finish on the 46V Kandy Man you make it look so easy, I've done this colour once and it came out fine but for some reason the mid coat isn't a true candy in my scheme but it's a basecoat binder with a couple of transparent tinters to get the candy effect, came out looking nice though👌🙏👍John UK
@@HackMasterBlaster I use PPG Deltron (solvent based) and most candies I fix use tinted clear basecoat as the candy layer. Only a few colors are the exception. This Mazda 46V and Fords RR, and few others use the tinted clearcoat method he's demonstrating in this video. So, you never really know til you pull up the formula. As beautiful as they are I despise these colors. Insurance companies rarely pay enough to compensate for the extra labor and material cost associated with these candies.
Absolutely beautiful job Kandy Man! I have a soul red mazda, and as nice as it is, I wouldn't get it again, chips too easy. Just today a car in front of me kicked up road debris and it hit my pass door and chipped it. I'm not happy.
when i first saw that color on the street i was Blown away Mazda throws that on their cars, best red out there without being custom... id love to throw that down on my project vw squareback
great work. I've heard these are a royal pain, you did a super job. that's the only way to be, top quality, there's enough hackers in the world- in every industry. Thanks !
I'm curious why there's a difference between ppg and Sherwin on this color. My system calls for a black sealer. And use the black sealer and number of base coats to determine how dark you color will be. And I am definitely a fan of the darkest 46v. I painted my Abarth this color when 46v first came out. It looks great but I added a little copper over my base, just a drop coat. Unfortunately it made it brighter, and I regret it, although it does looks amazing. As a custom painter I like to make my cars have that unique color. My dream job besides painting custom cars custom colors and designs would be to create colors for manufacturers that want to venture into flashy colors.
Amazing job. Very impressive blending. I have a guitar I would like to paint like this. How could a regular Joe like myself acquire the materials you used for this paint job?
My paint manufacturers formula for this has the candy mixed in the clear base like a pearl tricoat. I couldn't get it to look right until I started putting the last bit into my first coat of clear and finishing like this. I hope this might help someone
New subscriber here binge watching all your stuff, I use glasurit 90 line waterborne paint they really make this color so easy to spray and match sprays like any tri coat I would love to see you and paint society colab and try out the product and give it a review
Hy. I have a question for u man, i love these color and your work is excellent. My question is that when u are spraying these colors u use the same colors just more coats or do u use different colors in each coat? I am a nooby in these kind of thing but i want to paint my car like this.
Nice work, I paint this quite well using tinted clear. Shade used is key and percentage of tint/clear. Have you painted 51k rhodium white yet? 😨 this is my new nemesis 😅
God I love that color. Hey you did it in 2 stages. i thought it was 3 layers? An light absorbing flake layer, a fine aluminum flake layer and then the pigment layer.
Glad to know this, I do Candy paint jobs like this as well but I've gotten a lot of criticism that it's not the correct process. It's reassuring to know that someone with your experience and knowledge does it like that too. I've been told you have to panel paint candy jobs but I have never had an issue painting them they way you did👍
Question when you say u add the one hand of clear on the parts of the panel that haven’t been sprayed yet! You add the rest of the hand on the rest of the job or u wait bout 10 mins to clear the rest and than just add ur final hand?
I love this color Mazda 46V soulred metalic, May I know what is your base color (orange silver color) before candy color. Thanks. I have paint this color but it is very difficult to get the right color. It usually view color from the side does not match good. Thanks.
Hi, Kandy Man, I really like your work on painting this car with 46V Soul Red Crystal. I'm also working on this color in Indonesia but I'm having difficulty, sometimes the first layer isn't dark enough, I add the next layer and it will be darker. Is it true that this color uses paste? Thanks.
They call it Soul Red Metallic for a reason. You must leave a piece of your soul in every paint job to get it correct. Definitely Not for the faint of heart or amateur. Beautiful work.

And if you can find the right person, will the insurance cover the additional required cost to get it right?
You are more than the kandy man you are the kandy master. 👍👍👍

I work at Mazda Toyota Manufacturing in Alabama. That Soul Red Crystal looks good at all times. Day, night, dawn, or dusk. Frickin beautiful.
Yes it does 👍
I have to say your level of detail is impeccable.. You’re 100% an excellent car painter.. I can see why they call you The Candyman!!
Thank you
....I STARE at that color when I see it parked somewhere...the most glorious red on the market so deep that if you don't hold onto the ground you'll fall into it!!!
Agree 👍
Every time I see this beautiful color on a Mazda I lose my mind! Absolutely stunning color 🙌🏽
...me too...
We saw it for the first time at night, and it was dirty. And even dirty in the dark it was gleaming.
Yeah, it's incredible!
Great work bro! Autobody painter of 24yrs here PPG for life! Envirobase is great product no complaints its great for collision work. I still go back to dbc for overall jobs . Keep up great work brother!

This is by far the best red on a production car of the last decade. I want someone to spray some guitar bodies in it for me.

thats how I done for a few 3 stage. maybe candy colors you mix the pearl with clear then clear without the pearl. Im I,right?
Love it! love learning from the best in the trade thank you for the up load
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful job. That red is SICK!
Respect from Texas.
Thanks!
Phenomenal work. And you really want "mind... blown!" with this color, look at it in bright sun through polarized sunglasses!

Got a pic? Sounds awesome
Damn, you made that look easy! Thank you for the pro tips Brother!
Great job! I just wish there is somebody as good as you in the Philippines that can do the 46v. Thats just awesome!
Hardest to paint??? You made it look simple!! You are an artist.. great job. Thank you
Appreciate it 👊
I wanted to hate on how you sprayed your clear, but that came out sweet. 2021 clear is superb.
👍
Awesome job Kandy man. I’ve always done the clear blend before the kandy. Either way still looks amazing!
Appreciate it Juan 👊
Absolutely love your work brother man. Your attention to detail and the way you explain all the steps is outstanding. Thank you, man!
Thanks for the support 👊
Well now I know why they call you the candyman . Your color matching candies. Nice
Gorgeous color
I have a Mazda 3 Sedan in this color and truly I say, this color truly turns heads 😎 I love it!!!!
I totally agree!
i would never buy this color. i've heard for some accidents, insurance will total the car- the paint is that expensive and difficult to correctly lay down. this thing had a ding on 1/4 of the door, and half of the car ending up getting painted !
Much respect. Nothing beats experience.
Great artistry, your results are fantastic. Good to watch, thanks
Excellent work and instruction!
Thank you
Clears tend to fade when more coats are sprayed is something different with tinted clear. I never sprayed this kind of color.

In ultra BC8 it’s a clear basecoat with a red toner. Usually water based systems will use tinted clear not so much with solvent.
@@HackMasterBlaster I use PPG Deltron (solvent based) and most candies I fix use tinted clear basecoat as the candy layer. Only a few colors are the exception.

@@edjackson4389 I sprayed PPG Deltron at one shop and you are correct, they do use clear for mid coat but in most solvent systems it is not the case.
Silkkens red sealer definitely helps this color process as well as fords RR...... The Acura NSX is a nice little color as well
And I had problem matching BMW alpine white 300 🙂 Awesome paint job.
This color looks like a nightmare to match. Well done.
Really enjoyed this video, great explanation thanks very much.👏👏

Great video! Thanks
Well done again. I really like your positive attitude to life and work. If it's worth doing once, it's worth doing right.
Yes! Thank you!
Great work! What technique do you use to avoid mottling in the candy stage?
Dv1 gun is great help overlap and walk the panels
Nice work, I paint this quite well using tinted clear. Shade used is key and percentage of tint/clear. Have you painted 51k rhodium white yet? 😨 this is my new nemesis 😅
Not yet thanks for the heads up👊👊

I love that color. Wanna paint my Busa that color.
What tip and psi did you spray your clear? Noticed you used the dv1 🥳
1.2 c2 cap 22 psi
Awesome finish ...
Did you use hardner and reducer on the tinted clear ...
How many min between coats of candy
Yes it is thanks for watching
10-15min between coats

Awesome job! Is the Mazda Machine Gray Metallic, another three coat paint, the same process or is it easier to blend?
Both difficult
you are amazing !
Thanks for the support
What psi are you using that 3m gun for your base? Fluid and fan wide open?
13 psi 3 turns from closed both fan and fliud
Which gun did you use for the clear? Any spec for the clear coating?
Dv1
Great video very informative
Glad it was helpful!
Question when you say u add the one hand of clear on the parts of the panel that haven’t been sprayed yet! You add the rest of the hand on the rest of the job or u wait bout 10 mins to clear the rest and than just add ur final hand?
Not understanding
Are you adding two hands of clear to the whole job
Or just the one final hand after ur blended clear onto the wet candy

Salmon pink
Thanks for sharing I've been adding your tips into my daily routine. When you're spraying Envirobase do you use blowers in between coats of base?
No just turn up the heat a little
I want this fir my 22 GR86.....41v or 46v?
Why not run the base along the entire side (accept the top)? Beautiful work.
Nice, im in love with tis coller ❤
