honestly i think the uneveness adds to the effect and the color is wonderful, i'd call it a true forest green since the effect displays all the greens you find in the forest. From the bright green of fresh shoots to the dark blue green of old needle wood.
I can see why you're not happy with it, with how orange peel-y and uneven it turned out, but good lord that is the most gorgeous shade of green I've ever seen around a set of wheels.
I can understand that as professionals, you are not happy about the color consistency, but my gosh, that color of green is so deep and luxurious. It’s like looking into a bowl of deep green jello. Fantastic!! 4.5.
Hold up. Now THATS a color combo I would definitely use! It's beautiful. I prefer green and the darker the better. But this. This is a whole different category! I give it a 5
i love very dark greens ... have to imagine if you tried to get it closer to BRG or DBG it would look more even. i like it how it is, but it probably needs to be applied by a robot
This is easily a solid 4.8 if not a 5. The shade of green is beautiful and the color shifting between darker and lighter in spots makes it even more gorgeous. Love this alot!
I knew it would turn a green color but I didn’t expect that! I really dig it. You can almost see some yellow trying to show through in places. It’s very unique and totally custom. 5/5
This type of experiment is what makes this channel (and your company) such a treasure. Without exploration, there's no discovery. Please ALWAYS share both the good and the bad without judgement, just like you've done here. Great Job!
Can definitely see the uneven-ness of the coverage, But the color itself does look good. So what would happen if you tried recreating that color by mixing the Blue Candy directly into the color base?
i don’t consider this a failure at all. it’s like a brighter version of the older green bmw color. even as far as the clover green pearl civics. 5/5 for sure.
I wouldn't call that a failure. I really think that it turned out pretty nice. I personally am a big fan of green color palettes on vehicles and that's not your ordinary dark green. You still see the yellow pearl base peeking through depending on the angle.
instead of failure this should be counted as "proof of concept" ... there must be some way to apply the candy more evenly, and clearly a lot of people would like that
I'm feeling that shade of green! It didn't lay down smooth but the color is pretty sweet. Not a complete failure. Try mixing/blending the top coat into the base coat and lay it down as one. Then finish off with the gloss.
You can definitely see how uneven the coat is, but I LOVE the color! Don't know what you can do to try to replicate the color without the patchiness, but you should try for sure. I give this a 3 because the color is so awesome.
The color is surprisingly a nice green. Unfortunately the overall final product looks patchy and some yellow showing through. But still a fun experiment!
@@wyldanimal2 actually you can see yellow showing through that's not the street markings, ex. at mark 7:18 look at the rear bumper, and front side skirt right behind the tire, those areas don't have street markings. and not even mentioning the wheel wells.
I'd honestly say that it looks fantabulous! I love the deep green metallic. As for the uneven coverage, that's just the nature of the beast when it comes to candies, and it's also part of the allure they give to a paint job.. Great job!
Man, this is a fun experiment, there’s nothing wrong with trying things that aren’t typically combined. We learn more from our disappointment than achievements. You grow and we do to! The color is beautiful, 5 out of 5 for the color, the the consistency 3 out 5. Here’s an idea, gold base, with a mix of blue and yellow candy for a really rich Jade green.
5/5. I think the high and low spots make the final product look like distressed green denim. Do the candy blue over a white or silver base next, bet it looks like a pair of old, comfy jeans.
Wow! You have to revisit this again sometime! I love, love, LOVE the color! Yes, the coverage isn’t show quality, but it doesn’t look as bad as what I was expecting.
I actually like this color. It's a real shame it came out patchy because it's a shade of green I really like. I give it a 5 for color but 2 for feasibility. 3.5 overall
That turned out awesome! Definitely wasn’t expecting the outcome but it looks way better than I expected. I like the color shift cause it’s more natural looking and shows blues, greens, blackish & yellows.
As Bob Ross would say, we dont make mistakes, we have hapoy accidents. Even for stuff like this, it makes it unique. For things that are even, that means that this is completely unique. No other paint job is like this. And if you were to do this again, it would come out differently. Yet I love the effect this does. We can always be our own wordt critic, but as I see with other comments, it has its own charm and I love it.
@@DataDownLynk Clearly demonstration does not work for you either. It is CLEAR this does NOT work but hey keep smackin that head against the block wall and see if anything changes.
@@anonimous2451 Must not be the brightest one huh. Can't even figure out what I'm saying? Let me break it down barney style. I 'm not saying "Do the same thing again and make it work" I'm saying "try other processes or colors to try to get close to that same green" god I hate dense motherfuckers.
Honestly, I dig it. It's like a cheaty colorshift. Nine coats (?!) created a really interesting glaze. Laughed out loud at the reveal though, the change from the initial yellow was so striking. Glad that you picked a yellow base, because it would not have turned out so good over blue's proper opposite color: orange.
@@ranmanplaya My first thought was some like "blue ghost" would be the first one I would try. Do you have any other ideas that you think would work with it?
If I saw it in the street I would be like "nice home colour job! Points for creativity". I'm afraid I would assume it was not a professional paint job 😂
I thinks it’s pretty cool. The blue candy has a nice flop to it in different lights. Kinda like the mystichrome effect. It’s not that bad of blunder. The greens looks awesome.
From the distance the car looks amazing. You can see that it was going to be a beast for even coverage after your first pass. Nothing is a failure, its a teaching moment. How I would rate: Overall color is 5, eveness of color 2, willingness to do crazy stuff...off the scale. Thanks guys as always.
From a distance or is definitely dark green, but as you get closer it looks little lighter in some areas... not a good idea, but as someone mentioned about candy red over white pearl.. hmmm, that's a thought.. or even candy blue over white pearl.
That looks freaking amazing!! Seriously, it looks like color-shifting racing green. I genuinely, honestly like that a lot! Next time, try Cherry Red over that Yellow, and you might get color-shifting orange - Flame Orange!!!!
Maybe it's hard to tell properly not being next to it but i love it. That green is so vibrant and you get flashes of the blue and yellow coming through, albeit very subtle. 5/5 all the way.
1. It really isn’t THAT bad! Seeing what it looked like when you started applying the first coats I expected much much worse! 2. I bet both of you started laughing seeing how bad it looked during those first coats 😂
as someone who is a card carryng member of the "Not a fan of Green" club, this color is gorgeous. I *think* I see what you mean by uneven color, cause it looks darker in places to me but that could just be shadows. the color is REALLY NICE though, and that's from someone who will pass on green every day of the week and twice on sundays
Colorwise, I think it’s great. Not a huge fan of greens, but I’d still give a 3.5-4 on color alone. But you’re right, it definitely didn’t lay down well.
Honestly I don't see how this is a failure! I expected massively obvious streaks or something weird, but there's none of that. It's softly mottled, maybe, and honestly looks wicked! I love how dark it turned out! I'd be curious to see gold & copper flake, like the silver flake-- over a royal purple with hypershift. I think it would be amazing. Maybe for Mardi Gras?
@Karl with a K Absolutely agreed. A spraying technique like that and they wonder why they have heavy spots? Give me a break. Also what gun is that? It appears to me that the air supply is a shop vac. Don’t even get me started on the orange peel.
I'm a retired bodyman/painter, I worked the bodyshop industry for years played with pearl candy so on,! It doesn't look bad the color looks almost emerald green!
lol I looked first and found your comment. From the first look outside and as he panned, thinking, this looks like an emerald and all the subtle flashes you see in one. 👍
I actually like the "uneven look" to me it gives the appearance of water ripples. I like the green color too.... not as much as the candy orange you did, but still a nice overall color
The green color reminds me of my dad's Opal that he drove around in the 1970's. But the yellow 'hint' makes it interesting! I actually like it; it's not only unique, but it's exciting too once you catch a glimpse of the yellow underneath. Good work!
I like that honestly, looks almost like a color shift at times from dk green to hints of yellow. I know we don’t see the flaws like in person but I loved how it looked here in my screen and wouldn’t change it
If I saw this on the street, my first thought would be, "I can NOT believe that someone actually rattle-canned a whole car!" But the green color was surprising and beautiful!I give it a hearty 5 for effort, just for the fact that you went to the extreme of 3 gallons and 9 coats in the hope of making it work! Many thanks for sharing this!
if you mean rattle can as in spray paint, I've seen many cars in my town that were blatantly full body spray painted. This is significantly better. The quality of this matches a lot of the higher price custom paints in my local area. And the color is a lot nicer too.
@@shalakabooyaka1480 Yeah. I don't come from a town where the custom paint shops give good finishes. I'm not raging or arguing. I'm having a laugh because I know this doesn't look good compared to their normal quality, but their normal is workmanship p***. Comparing their work to what I see locally is like seeing a master level custom cabinet maker apologize for the wood stain not taking the way they wanted and comparing it to the defective item return department at Ikea.
I honestly didn't think I was going to like it, but it turned out really good. It has accents with the top being darker than the sides. I'm really into that.
To be honest, if you could get the color a little more even, I would love a car with this color scheme. I LOVE the green it came out as. 5 for color, 5 for effort, and 3 for execution.
Some paints just dont go on nicely no matter the effort put in this was a lesson taught to me by my father who has been painting vehicles for tbe majority of his life so i would not try scoring the execution like that
You can clearly see the texture and the unevenness, but the end result was definitely a cool (borderline '04 Rich) color. Makes me want to pull out the Snap-On paint gun and try something similar on my project! (I have a lot of bodywork to do, and since I'm going down to bare metal I may as well go all the way)
Sometimes a failure in ones book is a win in someone else's book! I'm not a huge fan of green but with the yellow sneaking through I really like this! I honestly believe it would have been even better with a few coats less of blue to let a bit more yellow pop. Love your channel guys I'm a do it yourself guy and have painted a few cars my 89 Dakota sport needs some TLC and I will be checking out you inventory. Keep up the cool videos!
Though it may not be what you were looking for or trying for, I kinda like the look of the candy. It makes it look like a clear candy coating over the car. And with any clear coating you aren’t going to have the same thickness of color everywhere. I like it!
the green looks great and i think the uneven coverage of the blue candy gives it character because its really noticeable. i wonder what paint combination would get that kind of green and also have even coverage because that green is really great! :)
I give it a 5 as well. This green is amazing! Didn't notice the unevenness once it got that dark as much. I have always been thinking of something similar but with a candy emerald green over a silver or chrome base. Or a candy purple so it looks like dot 5 brake fluid in a metal can. Beautiful colors, but there might be a better way to get similar effects and color coming out more even.
I give this color a 5. It's fantastic. Better than the yellow! I thought it would be a green but this is like a brilliant forest green with blue undertones and I simply love it ❤
Since green is my favorite color I absolutely love the paint job. I think it turned out very nice. I agree with a previous post about calling it "Forest Green" as there are many different hues of the forest. Cheers from eastern TN
That turned out better than I was expecting. Looks great from a distance. But you’re right. Close up. It looks like a dog’s breakfast. Too bad. Real really cool that you’re thinking outside the box and willing to try new things though. Love it!
Fonzie, I really love the dynamic you and Gabe have; thanks for sharing it! As for the end result of this project? Yeah, it's a 1. But for what the color *could* be? A solid 5. Absolutely love the promise of what this rich, dark emerald green could be! Make it so! 😀
Big fan of this color! That's amazing! The inconsistencies give it an amazing color shift like effect. Green is my favorite color and that's a stunning shade and effect even if unintended. I would be ecstatic to have that paint job on my car.
Green is not my favourite colour but I've gotta be honest, it doesn't look half bad. The colour I could live with, the orange peel not so much. Hats off to you for taking the risk and experimenting, not many will and fewer still admit when it didn't go as well as they hoped.
This is going to sound weird, but I think what you keep seeing in the unevenness is the slosh of the paint in the can. It involuntarily is creating a "pattern". Try placing a synthetic loofah type material inside to function as a baffle so the paint does not slosh hard enough to make the pattern show up. It's just an idea applied from other crafts.
I actually like the end result. A very nice emerald green. Could you have gotten the same effect with a single color? Perhaps, but this has some interesting depth.
I know it is probably a different story in person but judging by the video, I absolutely love this paint job. It's a win in my book.
Facts
Did you book for sale?
I agree 💯 percent 😍💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Love it
I agree. I kept thinking I would love to own a car that looks like that!
honestly i think the uneveness adds to the effect and the color is wonderful, i'd call it a true forest green since the effect displays all the greens you find in the forest. From the bright green of fresh shoots to the dark blue green of old needle wood.
Well said...
I really dig the color shifting but the way you added the Forest Green idea is epic!!
I agree totally with you. Green color on a vehicle is not my choice. This one is tast
I agree as well, the color is awesome, and I like the color shift. Just could be a little smoother
I agree. I see the unevenness but it works for me. Almost like a camouflage gloss. I like it.
I was thinking it was more of a money green with the color shifting.
I can see why you're not happy with it, with how orange peel-y and uneven it turned out, but good lord that is the most gorgeous shade of green I've ever seen around a set of wheels.
The colour really reminds me of British Racing Green.
@@Stoney3Ki was thinking the exact same
@@Stoney3K or Congo green on Ford falcons
I can understand that as professionals, you are not happy about the color consistency, but my gosh, that color of green is so deep and luxurious. It’s like looking into a bowl of deep green jello. Fantastic!! 4.5.
I also like the uneven color. There is some kind of exotic appeal to the way the color seems to depend on the contouring.
I like it a lot too! 4.0.
I love how their "It doesn't look good" still looks freaking amazing. I love that color!
I know that’s a great green normally I don’t like a green car but that looks great
The only way I could see this as "bad" is if I were colorblind.
the color is fine, but its uneven coverage is the issue that probably would be more obvious in person.
@@bkx90 Totally fair, but still, from the video I think the color looks amazing.
Hold up. Now THATS a color combo I would definitely use! It's beautiful. I prefer green and the darker the better. But this. This is a whole different category! I give it a 5
Out of 10
@chaunceygardner2342 when did they change their scale. Use to be "best of 5!" That being said then it would be a 10.
Maybe there is something lost in recording, but that looks fantastic to me.
i love very dark greens ... have to imagine if you tried to get it closer to BRG or DBG it would look more even. i like it how it is, but it probably needs to be applied by a robot
Even though the color is uneven, it looks awesome. I'm a fan of green to begin with but this one is just stunning to me.
This is easily a solid 4.8 if not a 5. The shade of green is beautiful and the color shifting between darker and lighter in spots makes it even more gorgeous. Love this alot!
4.5. It turned out way better than I thought it would. And on-camera the green is very unique and striking. I would not call it a failure!
I would drive this and show it off.
@@chadasonmcgraw yeah same
I've been looking at colors for 30+ years and in my lifetime I have never seen such a smooth blended green with hints of blue and yellow. Love it 💛💙💚
He could be on to something here
I'm not sure what the "problem" is that paint looks sweet
No way this is a failure!!! It looks beautiful! You have almost like a hyper color shift of greens. It looks original and very well done! 5 out of 5!
I said the same , the blochy areas do have a hyper effect. Kinda neat
You know you're skilled when your failures look amazing. 👏
I guess - If you think orange peel looks amazing.
Thats what wet sanding is for.@@jdaz5462
I honestly think the uneven parts almost make it look like a green with yellow under tone shift. It's multiple different greens and I like it!!
I would have liked to see more of the yellow showing through on the higher lines.
This looks like a custom color in a video game and I’m not going to lie I dig it. The color itself is amazing.
Verdade mano
Yeah it's got midnight club vibes.
I almost always use race yellow as a base:)
Yo. I think it's freaking awesome .....10 outta 10
I knew it would turn a green color but I didn’t expect that! I really dig it. You can almost see some yellow trying to show through in places. It’s very unique and totally custom. 5/5
Normally I hate yellow or green cars but this does look good, the fact that it changes as you move around it makes it fascinating.

Can definitely see the uneven-ness of the coverage, But the color itself does look good.
So what would happen if you tried recreating that color by mixing the Blue Candy directly into the color base?
A less pearlescent green candy
Put the Lime in the Coconut and shake 'em both up . . .
There's a chance that it might turn black.
Then a pearl on top…
UA-cam Epsteined a comment off to Gitmo.
i don’t consider this a failure at all. it’s like a brighter version of the older green bmw color. even as far as the clover green pearl civics. 5/5 for sure.
I'd say the score depends on the car, but yeah this is definitely not a failure.
As the former owner of a 99 clover green Civic, I concur, very similar.
I give it a 5 it's like a green chrome
I had a green BMW, It's color was Oxford Green, A very similar color,
5/5 and the cloudiness looks amazing. I think it's more like a bonus than unwanted effect.
I like this. It's like a chamelon paint job, but all in green tones. You guys didn't fail on this - its a win.
A 30!! The depth of the green is Insane!! For anyone who loves green, this is absolutely Perfect!
True! I love green
This looks sexy!
Green is my favourite colour; I agree.
Unless there's something about the camera that's missing something, I'd say this is amazing!
More "Masterpiece" than "Disaster". While being painted, I had no idea it would become a more dark "Forest Green". I actually really like it!
Disasterpiece maybe?
*Hey, it's not a failure if you learn something right* 😅 *Rate this color 1-5* ⬇
Root beer candy over orange plz
Not good looking on that car but it could look good on a different car
🎶that's ri iiiiiiight🎶😄😉
This is actually not as bad as you made it sound! 3.5/5
3...I kind of like it
Green is not my favorite color, but this is beautiful. I was expecting a disaster, but this is far from a disaster.
I love it! The shifting colors as your POV changes makes it look almost organic, like something found and grown in nature.
I wouldn't call that a failure. I really think that it turned out pretty nice. I personally am a big fan of green color palettes on vehicles and that's not your ordinary dark green. You still see the yellow pearl base peeking through depending on the angle.
Agree! I Absolutely did love this .
Kinda a modern take on a Winfield fade,
instead of failure this should be counted as "proof of concept" ... there must be some way to apply the candy more evenly, and clearly a lot of people would like that
I'm feeling that shade of green! It didn't lay down smooth but the color is pretty sweet. Not a complete failure. Try mixing/blending the top coat into the base coat and lay it down as one. Then finish off with the gloss.
The guns they use for the dip aren't the best quality, might have worked out better with a regular paint gun
The second it went on I thought: "That's patchy af..."
I sure wasn't expecting THAT as the result! Looked better than I thought it would.
You can definitely see how uneven the coat is, but I LOVE the color! Don't know what you can do to try to replicate the color without the patchiness, but you should try for sure. I give this a 3 because the color is so awesome.

Man, this is a fun experiment, there’s nothing wrong with trying things that aren’t typically combined. We learn more from our disappointment than achievements. You grow and we do to!
The color is beautiful, 5 out of 5 for the color, the the consistency 3 out 5.
Here’s an idea, gold base, with a mix of blue and yellow candy for a really rich Jade green.
5/5. I think the high and low spots make the final product look like distressed green denim. Do the candy blue over a white or silver base next, bet it looks like a pair of old, comfy jeans.
Wow! You have to revisit this again sometime! I love, love, LOVE the color! Yes, the coverage isn’t show quality, but it doesn’t look as bad as what I was expecting.
I'm always sucker for a green car. This one is W-I-L-D! That little bit of yellow that shows through is just icing on the cake!!!
Beautiful shade of green. It's like a well polished green tourmaline. And the blue sheen shifts so subtly it makes for a double take.
I actually like this color. It's a real shame it came out patchy because it's a shade of green I really like. I give it a 5 for color but 2 for feasibility. 3.5 overall
The emerald color/effect is awesome, but agreed on the shame it's patchy...
Yes I love color but I have to agree with the score 🙁
Color is drop dead gorgeous but patchiness does ruin the illusion
I'd give it a 5 for attempt and a 3 overall
agree, a metallic forest green would look great. maybe a little something pearl mixed into that and finish with a candy black?
Same here. Hey, just take it to NY and take some pictures at the Brazilian protestors. It'll be fun!
That turned out awesome! Definitely wasn’t expecting the outcome but it looks way better than I expected. I like the color shift cause it’s more natural looking and shows blues, greens, blackish & yellows.

Mixing this candy with a hypershift over the same base color could result in extremely insane results.
What kind of hypershift?
@@ranmanplaya My first thought was some like "blue ghost" would be the first one I would try. Do you have any other ideas that you think would work with it?
My second would be ZGP hypershift. The colors in ZGP might compliment the green with the right colors if the candy doesn't overpower the hypershift.
@@ranmanplaya my last choice would be ZTH. The colors in ZTH would probably be the most promising.
Agreed. A nice hypershift over it would look stunning!

I thinks it’s pretty cool. The blue candy has a nice flop to it in different lights. Kinda like the mystichrome effect. It’s not that bad of blunder. The greens looks awesome.
It’s actually a pretty sick Colour scheme
I quite liked this one. Wasn’t what I expected. I hoped for a tad more deeper green, but I would totally be satisfied with that.
Btw, I was subscribed to your channel for a long time, I thought. I guess UA-cam dumped me from your subs. I subbed again.
Mystichrome is a color of legend.
Drawing similarities between it and the green abomination shown above feels like being punched in the gut.
I like how the edges appear darker and the panels a bit lighter, makes for a chatoyant effect, I love it!
From the distance the car looks amazing. You can see that it was going to be a beast for even coverage after your first pass. Nothing is a failure, its a teaching moment. How I would rate: Overall color is 5, eveness of color 2, willingness to do crazy stuff...off the scale. Thanks guys as always.
I love it! If you had set out to paint this car green, you would have never been able to come up with this green. It's perfect!
This is crazy!!! Is there ANY WAY you guys would be inclined to do a CANDY RED over pearl white??? 😵💫👍🏽. I think that would be EPIC!!!!
that would be sick... can i put a second on seeing what that might look like.
I feel like they’d just have a similar problem
I'd like to see that

Solid 3 for me. Thought I'd hate it, but it's giving me some hot wheels nostalgia as well as traditional hard candy vibes.
Yes!!! Color shifting hot wheels is exactly what came to mind!!!
The effort is always appreciated.
Colorwise, I think it’s great. Not a huge fan of greens, but I’d still give a 3.5-4 on color alone. But you’re right, it definitely didn’t lay down well.
It's actually a beautiful color. Kinda like a jewel tone. You can see the inconsistency, but it doesn't look bad.
I think the inconsistency helps with the jewel color.
Yup. Can definitely sell the car as a “Specialty Green, never seen or done before! A rare jewel.”
The unevenness is what makes it pop! Great Job on this fantastic paint job. Don’t think every paint job needs a uniform coating.
It is a little splotchy but I like it I think it makes it look like a gemstone or something. I give it 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Honestly I don't see how this is a failure! I expected massively obvious streaks or something weird, but there's none of that. It's softly mottled, maybe, and honestly looks wicked!

Not going to lie, that color actually looks sick! Love how it changes shades. I wiukd honestly rock this. 5 for me.
I've watched every single dip you have ever sprayed and this is the first one that I finally love the color and this is the best one ever!!
Looks gorgeous! I see where it’s uneven - adds to its look - love it 😍
I'm a retired bodyman/painter, I worked the bodyshop industry for years played with pearl candy so on,! It doesn't look bad the color looks almost emerald green!
lol I looked first and found your comment. From the first look outside and as he panned, thinking, this looks like an emerald and all the subtle flashes you see in one. 👍
Absolutely the same thing I thought when they started rolling the finished video. It’s an emerald on wheels. I like it.
Absolutely love it, the diff transitions with unevenness gives it that uniqueness that no other paint job has, 1 of 1
I actually like the "uneven look" to me it gives the appearance of water ripples. I like the green color too.... not as much as the candy orange you did, but still a nice overall color
I guess we could call that "Nose-Pick Green." Not something I would choose, but it's not that bad.
Dip Your Car channel is like How It's Made. I could spend a weekend binge-watching it
Yes! I enjoyed watching How It's Made and I enjoy watching this. Both are fascinating!
The green color reminds me of my dad's Opal that he drove around in the 1970's. But the yellow 'hint' makes it interesting! I actually like it; it's not only unique, but it's exciting too once you catch a glimpse of the yellow underneath. Good work!
I like that honestly, looks almost like a color shift at times from dk green to hints of yellow. I know we don’t see the flaws like in person but I loved how it looked here in my screen and wouldn’t change it
I like it! It’s darker around the flairs and body lines but it adds to the look of the paint job.
If I saw this on the street, my first thought would be, "I can NOT believe that someone actually rattle-canned a whole car!" But the green color was surprising and beautiful!I give it a hearty 5 for effort, just for the fact that you went to the extreme of 3 gallons and 9 coats in the hope of making it work! Many thanks for sharing this!
if you mean rattle can as in spray paint, I've seen many cars in my town that were blatantly full body spray painted. This is significantly better. The quality of this matches a lot of the higher price custom paints in my local area. And the color is a lot nicer too.
@@canikostar99 nah, that finish looks terrible
Just call it color changing green and it looks better already.
@@shalakabooyaka1480 Yeah. I don't come from a town where the custom paint shops give good finishes.
I'm not raging or arguing. I'm having a laugh because I know this doesn't look good compared to their normal quality, but their normal is workmanship p***. Comparing their work to what I see locally is like seeing a master level custom cabinet maker apologize for the wood stain not taking the way they wanted and comparing it to the defective item return department at Ikea.
@@canikostar99 I understand what you mean now, I can see that lol
I honestly didn't think I was going to like it, but it turned out really good. It has accents with the top being darker than the sides. I'm really into that.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I love this❣️It glistens like a rare emerald. It’s a 5!
To be honest, if you could get the color a little more even, I would love a car with this color scheme. I LOVE the green it came out as. 5 for color, 5 for effort, and 3 for execution.
Some paints just dont go on nicely no matter the effort put in this was a lesson taught to me by my father who has been painting vehicles for tbe majority of his life so i would not try scoring the execution like that
You can clearly see the texture and the unevenness, but the end result was definitely a cool (borderline '04 Rich) color. Makes me want to pull out the Snap-On paint gun and try something similar on my project! (I have a lot of bodywork to do, and since I'm going down to bare metal I may as well go all the way)
Wow! What a beautiful disaster! How great to get all those green varieties in there so smoothly even though those were not the intended results! 5 ⭐⭐
Sometimes a failure in ones book is a win in someone else's book! I'm not a huge fan of green but with the yellow sneaking through I really like this! I honestly believe it would have been even better with a few coats less of blue to let a bit more yellow pop. Love your channel guys I'm a do it yourself guy and have painted a few cars my 89 Dakota sport needs some TLC and I will be checking out you inventory. Keep up the cool videos!
Though it may not be what you were looking for or trying for, I kinda like the look of the candy. It makes it look like a clear candy coating over the car. And with any clear coating you aren’t going to have the same thickness of color everywhere. I like it!
the green looks great and i think the uneven coverage of the blue candy gives it character because its really noticeable. i wonder what paint combination would get that kind of green and also have even coverage because that green is really great! :)
Green goblin bmw
Oh I love it!
I give it a 5 as well. This green is amazing! Didn't notice the unevenness once it got that dark as much. I have always been thinking of something similar but with a candy emerald green over a silver or chrome base. Or a candy purple so it looks like dot 5 brake fluid in a metal can. Beautiful colors, but there might be a better way to get similar effects and color coming out more even.
I give this color a 5. It's fantastic. Better than the yellow! I thought it would be a green but this is like a brilliant forest green with blue undertones and I simply love it ❤
Since green is my favorite color I absolutely love the paint job. I think it turned out very nice. I agree with a previous post about calling it "Forest Green" as there are many different hues of the forest. Cheers from eastern TN
unsuccessful coating aside, that's a gorgeous green
That green is prefect!! Not too bright not too dark. It’s a win in my book hands down!
That turned out better than I was expecting. Looks great from a distance. But you’re right. Close up. It looks like a dog’s breakfast. Too bad. Real really cool that you’re thinking outside the box and willing to try new things though. Love it!
I really like it. It looks almost like an anodized aluminum color for some reason.
Fonzie, I really love the dynamic you and Gabe have; thanks for sharing it! As for the end result of this project? Yeah, it's a 1. But for what the color *could* be? A solid 5. Absolutely love the promise of what this rich, dark emerald green could be! Make it so! 😀
That looks like the jewel of the forest green. Bloody brilliant. I can see that not everyone would like it but THAT is the paintastic!
Big fan of this color! That's amazing! The inconsistencies give it an amazing color shift like effect. Green is my favorite color and that's a stunning shade and effect even if unintended. I would be ecstatic to have that paint job on my car.
I actually love that color, I’d love to see you recreate it with maybe a matte or satin too.
A matte finish would look good for sure
Green is not my favourite colour but I've gotta be honest, it doesn't look half bad. The colour I could live with, the orange peel not so much. Hats off to you for taking the risk and experimenting, not many will and fewer still admit when it didn't go as well as they hoped.
5 for me. Love the shade of green you created. Besides, it's unique. Can't call that a failure.
This is going to sound weird, but I think what you keep seeing in the unevenness is the slosh of the paint in the can. It involuntarily is creating a "pattern". Try placing a synthetic loofah type material inside to function as a baffle so the paint does not slosh hard enough to make the pattern show up. It's just an idea applied from other crafts.
I actually like the end result. A very nice emerald green. Could you have gotten the same effect with a single color? Perhaps, but this has some interesting depth.
same here
So do I. If BMW could do a professional version of this color, I'd get a car with this shade of green. It looks great.
Personally I absolutely love this. It’s unique and beautiful. Great job❤❤
It looks a lot better than I thought it would. If it wasn't for the uneven color coverage the color would be really nice.
I love that green and how it shades, it looks almost alive. Gorgeous!
I love it, it’s a awesome color 😊beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
