I saw an orange GTO back in '67 or so where the owner had a custom paint job done to it. If memory serves the fellow said that crushed mirrors were added to the paint and layers of clear lacquer were painstakingly applied. The effect was surreal to me, eleven years old at the time and I didn't know what "surreal" meant, in that the depth of the color and reflective bits seemed infinite.
In the 1970's this was called Candy Apple and was as expected expensive when done professionally as each layer required drying, a buff with rubbing compound, and the next layer added, so it took about a month to apply 20 coats.

@@peterzingler6221 depends on the clear coat. Most call for 2 to 3 coats of clear. So you could let the 3rd coat cure out, then wet sand and spray 3 more coats.
M ell There’s a song about that. $1000 Car. Best line in the song... thousand dollar car ain’t never gonna roll until you go another thousand in the hole. Put your money in it and there you are, the owner of a two thousand dollar thousand dollar car.
Easy enough, just have to have a backing to spray on, probably a waxed glass sheet, with a thin even spray of silicone oil on top, and then a lot of very light clear layers on top to build up the polyurethane paint to an adequate thickness, or just pour the mixed formulation into a former like they use for acrylic sheet after you vacuum degas it, then heat cure it. Will need to have a very low concentration of solvents though to avoid bubbles forming, probably hard to do as the solvent is around 70% of the clearcoat volume in the can.
@@sidewayssam Ha that was different... I was hoping he'd go to open a door on the car and find out the doors were all stuck together.... I thought for sure he was going to try prying the trunk or hatch open.
Not boiling, solvent trying to escape. It's called solvent pop. The whole video, all I could think about is how tough it was going to be to get that masking tape and paper off without peeling the clear surrounding it. I see it didn't go so well around the back window. I would love to see it in a few months. I predict major spider cracking after all that material shrinks.

My favorite line, “the clear cost more than that there shit box”. Keep up the videos. They are awesome. Things I have always wanted to try but too busy working.
My last truck was a Toyota mini and once the many mods were done it was painted in 4 coats ( gun metal grey metallic - stock color ) then a gallon of clear. It always looked wet and deep. I won lots of shows with it too
Lol, I thought you were going to try to do it right;) it would have been really cool to see this be a months long process in which you diligently applied each layer. I bet it would be gorgeous.
My low low has about 48 coats of clear and still looks like it did the day after the month it took to paint it. Please! SoCal for the win. Lmao when he said they said it cant be done and that no one puts that many coats on a car.
Actually, I think it's a genuine 'ice storm' look. If you've ever lived in the northeast, you'll be extremely familiar with the appearance of this car.
You guys should have baked the car after 3 or 4 coats , let cool , then scuff with scotch brite and the repeat with another 3 or 4 coats and a bake until you hit 35 coats.
It's a Datsun Stagea coupe (r32 I think), they a bit more common then the regular skyline It almost definitely is RHD steer , here almost every Japanese car is , as Japan is our neighbor! They are just imported straight to here ! :) It is funny to read these american comments, here a skyline is not much of a special car,but you get so excited over them !!
Some serious clear coating there, I'm glad this video was made as it's a great lesson in clear coating. But personally as an amature body work technician, I wouldn't have ever thought the effects would be improved. After just four or five coats it's just getting thicker (glass is glass how ever thick it is for example). The clear coat covers over the paint and fills in any roughness or dimples in the paint work to make it smoother as the clear coat is a finer density particle, while wax is an even finer particle than the clear coat but being less permanent is a useless way to protect a car in the long term and why you must first apply the clear coat. The smoother the surface the more it will shine, you gotta buff!. Applying more and more clear coat just wouldn't improve the appearance in anyway and as you saw you get runs, bubbles and a whole load other nasties going on. On the plus side the car underneath is protected like a tank and might just survive the sun going super nova in a few billion years time preserving evidence human kind existed but still to no aesthetic gain that's for sure!
11 minutes and 34 seconds of my life will never be returned. I watched the entire thing looking forward to seeing the sanded and buffed out finish and y'all skipped on it because it looked alright. Cool and all but finish what you started lol.
I had a friend who was a qualty painter who rebuilt his 1978 Ford Capri and repainted it. He put some stardust pinhead glitter in the laquer and kept adding coats till he buried the glitter. once he was happy he wouldnt rub through to the glitter he started rubbing it down, then mopped it with a polisher, then polished it with finishing compound, then hand rubbed the last finish. The end result was like a sheet of glass!
I should try that in a smaller scale. But that gloss is just like wow. I’m pretty sure other luxury car manufacturers are jealous about the gloss level on it despite the run offs x)
They can put some German or French engine from a gti golf or a Megane ,paint it red and put some beautiful red paint restore the interior I would love one
In the 1970’s there was a sprayon window tint. It was applied by spray ( just like paint ). Putting in down until heavy until a run the entire length of the window started and then feeding that run until the bottom of the window. This video reminds me of that process. It is actually possible to apply those 35 coats without the runs if you have so patience. How many coats will that coating handle before it starts to sag? Establish that on apiece of scrap then allow a sometime between each set.
i think the undercoats never will be completely dry out, because they are sealed with the topcover, im a pro painter, they had to wait for the coats in between to fully dry out, little bit of wet sanding for the next coat, so it sticks better, but i can imagine what a hell of a job that must be doing that at least 10 times lol.
Dam Paul Wal, candy paint still dripping... I bet the clear coat will pop off next year and then they can use the shell for a clear body project, like the plastic hood in the movie greese

Can you make a window from clear coat?

In theory yes. Depends on how clear that dried coat will be. Doing one would probably require a vacuum chamber, though, because of all the bubbles...
Easy enough, just have to have a backing to spray on, probably a waxed glass sheet, with a thin even spray of silicone oil on top, and then a lot of very light clear layers on top to build up the polyurethane paint to an adequate thickness, or just pour the mixed formulation into a former like they use for acrylic sheet after you vacuum degas it, then heat cure it.
