✅Getting this Frontier Closer to Being Done
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 кві 2021
- In this video I will get this Nissan Frontier replacement door painted with a full explanation of the process where I go over a lot of important information for anyone that wants to try their hand in auto paint. Also going to straighten out the front metal bumper and I'll finally start on the body filler. Just a few steps closer to getting this truck done.

Its been 10 months since your last video, i spent this weekend watching all your videos. I do love all your content and hope you have more videos to come. If you need more content I live in the Seattle area and have a few cars sitting around that could use some repairs, 😉
Sorry mate, just been slammed with work for a while, got enough material probably for the next 30 videos or so, new videos due to get posted here pretty soon
This is now my favorite repair channel. Clear and concise. Very informative.
Thanks man !!
I’ve been checking back to see if your next video has been uploaded the last 6 months, I’ve been waiting to see how this truck turned out 😂
I will be posting the rest of that project here pretty soon, and I got a ton more stuff in line after that
hello, it's been a long time since you posted a video,
I hope everything is going well for you,
wish you the best
love all the work you show in this video, great job making seem easy and explained very well. personally i hate doing body work but watching you do it is a great sight to see
I try my best to include as much information as possible, but it's hard to inject years of experience into a short video, hopefully as time goes on and I push out more videos I'll be able to share as much knowledge with your guy as I possibly can
As much as I enjoy watching the goon boys and Kondor guys your videos are so educational please keep teaching us your expertise it helps so we can do work on our vehicle thanks again my friend for your videos always look forward to your videos
This is my whole approach on my channel, I try to make my stuff as educational as possible. Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!!
Been missing your videos. Hope all is OK over there.
Happy New Year from Queensland Australia.
Bruce, happy new year my friend, I have started working on a video couple of days ago but did not finish it just yet, hopefully in a few days I'll have something to show you guys :-)
Love the content. Great job.
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed it!!
Dear sir, in behalf of all of your subscribers, we hope you are alive and well! Keep on truckin! 👍👍
Thanks man, I'm still here, all is well. Hopefully will have another video out in about a week or so
Love seeing this project come together!
I bet you do :-) I bet you also love driving the truck since it's all done now :-)
@@fix206 Where is the video of you finishing it up? Great channel BTW
@@fix206 Was wondering if you are ok and all is well.
Been showing up to your channel to see if there is anything new or if I missed out.
Stay safe. Cheers
@@rjung_ch Is he okay? Did not see any new video for a while and just wondering. Hope he is doing well and staying safe!
@@TheKondicional I don't know, missing his videos. Hope he is well and just busy.
Hey man just come back !!
I love your videos !!
Working on a video right now... hopefully will have it done by Sunday... Stay tuned !
Absolutely fantastic video I can’t wait to see the next video
Glad you enjoyed it !! Thanks Mark !!
Came to check up on your channel for a new video, hope you’re doing well and find time to edit and upload more videos soon! You’re channel has so much potential to be big, I know you would be happy with the success you would get if you were to put in the hours to keep making great content!! Hope you’re able to find that spark to to grind out making content because your channel would blow up if you did! Never stop filming, even if what you record is uploaded years later, it’s still great content thousands of people, including me, would want to see!
New video just got posted... 😃
I love your videos, it's awesome content and can't wait for you to upload more!
Thank you so much! Got more videos in the Works
Really enjoyed your videos my man, I hope you decide to make more. Love the frame machine, love watchin the pulls with instruction on how n why. Good luck to you whatever you do but I want way more brother. Take it easy man, i hope I get what I want...... give us more please.
More to come soon!
@@fix206
Hey man, thanks for the reply. I'm a sub so I'll see um when they're out, very glad to hear it. I've been searching for some good channels that sorta focus on frame pulls and that type of stuff. Vehcor, and rush in garage are a couple I found to like, can you recommend any others. Appreciate the reply, can't wait for your future vids. Thank you.
excelente trabajo
Gracias Rocc !
Nice job 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks 🔥
Good job thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Just stopping by and saying hello. Wishing you and yours a Very Merry Christmas!
Same to you Phillip! It's been a while my friend! My busy summer spilled into a busy fall and now winter. I keep filming new projects but not much editing. But I do think daily about posting new videos... I might just surprise you one of these days :)
@@fix206
😊. I know what you mean. We get tied up making a living . I will tell you, I have gotten more good basic skill, and all around, good information from you and your channel than ANY other. Being I have subscribed to several channels that is saying a lot. Some specialize in this aspect and some specialize in that aspect. Yours is a balance of many needed skills. Thanks for all you have posted. VERY APPRECIATE! 👍🏻
I got a lot more good laser measuring, frame pulling, metalworking, paint, equipment upgrade videos that are waiting to get done. I still have to finish the Nissan frontier series that has two videos left to go and then the other stuff will come...
Hi Fix206 I love all your videos, they are very educational and exciting. I was wondering when will the next video be available? I am so eager to see the Nissan truck finished. Keep up the good work thanks and God bless!
I've been absolutely swamped with work as of late, I've been working on filming a lot, just can't seem to find time for video editing. But a lot more videos will be coming soon
Yes! Been Waiting on an Upload
I feel like I didn't get a whole lot done in this video, but wanted to make it really informative...
Your videos are very good. You are a good teacher and obviously a very smart guy. Keep them coming. On a side note, why not paint the bumper? Then you could use body filler first.
Thanks man, appreciate the comment. This is my son's truck and he wanted to stay with chrome bumpers, he is OK with it not being perfect and all...
Fix, wishing you well my friend. Phillip Hall
All is good here Philip, hope all is well on your end!!
Hello Fix 206. Just checking on you. I hope all is well for you and your family. I have missed your posting.
Hello Philip, sorry, just been crazy busy. I've been working and filming a ton. I'll do a quick explanation for the long pause in my upcoming video. Hope all is well on your end !!
@@fix206
All good here too. Thank you. I look forward to the videos when your time allows... 😊
Great!
Thank you Orlando !!
@@fix206 everything ok?
@@orlandolegolas9231 Yes, all is good here !
Love your work. I'm in the UK and don't see much mention of sealer in suppliers. But we use epoxy primers is that what you are calling a sealer. 👍
It is probably called different things in different parts of the world. It's basically a primer sealer that is not a high build like a regular primer. And it's not meant to be sanded either, although I'm sure if you absolutely had to, you probably could still sand some nibs and what not out of it. I used to not use sealer for the longest time, but after I started using it, I am not going back to my old ways :-) Cheers!
Now you have given a bit more information it is called expoxy primer, I am using one that is easy to sand 👌
Some others
You say reducer we say thinner
You say quarter panel we say wing
You say rocker panel we say cill
Let me know if you want to see more 😂
LOL... Don't forget about the boot or trunk as we call it... and also bonnet that we would call a hood... Since we don't use those terms, they sound silly 😆
@@fix206 You say hoods we say gangsters.
Your son will sure to take care of the car/truck seeing the effort you put into fixing it
Actually we don't call "gangsters" hoods :-) but we would refer to a ghetto part of town as a hood...
Привет Fix206. Я просто проверяю. Я надеюсь, что у вас все хорошо, и ваша семья в старой стране чувствует себя хорошо и в безопасности. Да благословит Бог тебя и твоего друга.
Филип Холл
Did you ever finish filming this build? Love your content. Very well done. Hope everything is well with you and your family.
Thanks for checking in on me, everything is good here. This project been done a few months now. I've got another eight projects completed since then. Got a ton of material filmed just no time for editing. Soon though, very soon I'll have more videos out. Stay tuned !
@@fix206 Ah, that's what I came to find out. Great news for us then, thanks!
@@fix206 please look into how to do this stuff right dont see me as a hater but there are a lot of things you do very wrong when repairing
@@connerruss6012 What exactly is it that I'm doing wrong? There is more then one way to skin a cat, I've been doing this for a while now, and fixed some vehicles for family members that 15 years later still look as good as when I got them fixed. Most folks don't even keep cars that long.
@@fix206
Good stuff Fix206 Keep up the good work and videos..
@Fix206 any videos in the pipe where potentially a trunk of a car is repaired? Or pulling out the B pillar when being hit from the side? When I see these type of cars at auction I often wonder how difficult this is and you continue to amaze me with your skillz ;)
Currently don't have anything in the pipe with side or rear damage. Do have a video that will be coming out later on with another front end damage where I had to pull one of the frame rails and a strut tower that's attached to upwards. Most of the cars aren't too hard to fix, but some of the other ones are best left alone, just let them go to the scrap yard instead. If you want to learn, always start with easy light damaged vehicles, and as your skills grow you'll be able to move onto harder hit cars
@@fix206 Thanks for the advice and looking forward to it 😀 👍
Great Video! The clear laid out like glass! What gun was you using? Thanks!
It is much easier to lay the clear out like glass on a horizontal surface because clear flows out. You get much more orange peel accumulation on a vertical surfaces. The gun that I'm using is an Iwata LPH-400. I've had this gun for many years and gotten some good results with it, especially when laying down some clear. It struggles a bit with metallics that's why if I'm painting something with a high metallic contact I switch to Devilbiss Pro Light for base coat application, that gun has easier time with metallics and other difficult colors.
Thanks Fix for the Devilbiss Pro Light tip!
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you !!
Do the LVLP guns produce less overspray than shown in this video? I'd be worried about my neighbors hating my paint emissions otherwise lol.
It’s been a while, hope all is well!
Chris, it sure has been a while. It's been a really busy summer for me thus far. But I have a ton of new footage that I will start posting here pretty soon !!
Hello Comrade!
Missing the final results.
Do you make more videos for us? Pretty love your channel, so please upload your next project.
Cheers!
Working on new videos, will start posing soon!
Hi i am trying to build a frame rack i wanted to know where can you buy the tower of the frame from
also thanks for the vids they are really helpful
I would say that I got lucky that I found the tower locally. I kept an eye out for a couple of months until something popped up online in my area, I still ended up driving about 2.5 hoursI to get it... But it was well worth the drive
Fix I have read the comments here. I have found a lot can be learned by reading the comment sections. A rare thing here is your viewers, (many of your viewers), ask for more videos. I have not found it so much so with other channels. This is a great complement to you. See you here soon.. 😊
Phillip Hall
Philip my friend, I feel so guilty for not posting, it's been just about a year since my last video. I feel like I promised folks that I would be posting here soon and quite a bit of time had come and went since then and no videos have been posted. I hate not delivering on my promises... I am the sole provider in my family so my main job comes first. But I keep working and filming, I feel that the least I can do is answer to peoples comments and try to help them out as much as I can that way. Sometimes when I do have some free time I just want to relax in the evening and watch some TV with the fam. But at the same time I keep telling myself: 'You have filmed so much material, but what good is it if none of it is being posted"...
@@fix206
Fix I for one fully understand . Keep filming, when the time is right you can re-begin posting. I do not think you are wasting time filming. You put out GREAT stuff. I feel it will pay off. I really think you will make it big in UA-cam, at least enough to make a good second income. I watched Vice Grip Garage when he first started out . I thought the same about him and he now has One Million One Hundred Twenty Five Subscribers! I had the same feeling about him as I do you! Keep filming 👍🏻 until the time is right! Wishing you the best!
Phillip Hall
Thank you for words of encouragement !! Hopefully it won't be long for me to start posting again 🤞
@@fix206
Either way I meant what I said. Yours is one of the best on UA-cam!
Phillip Hall
Where are you guys located? would love to have you paint my 1989 Mustang GT!
I'm located in Washington state, but I normally just work on my own stuff and don't take on outside of work...
hey what brand paint gun are you using ? thanks
It's an Iwata LPH-400
Fantastic channel I hope your okay and upload the end result soon 🌚🌹.
I was going to release the follow up video this past Sunday, but ended up going out of town for the holiday. So I'll be posting it this upcoming Sunday, stay tuned !!
hello! i don't understand you paint outside no wind no dirt?why?
When I paint outside I normally try to pick a day when it's not windy, painting earlier in the day is better because bugs normally come out in the evening and also morning dew will collect on the grass overnight and a lot of the dust and dirt sticks to it, a lot of the times I will also wet the area around where I will be painting, that also helps with keeping the dirt down. If you know what you're doing you can get some really nice results while painting outside, even while painting in a paint booth sometimes you still get dirt in your finish.
Nice tutorial. I don't think I could add anything to it, you covered it nicely. However, I would like to suggest a tip. I watch Junkyard Dave and what he does with the paint tin before he pours the paint is to cover the groove in the paint tin with masking tape, to prevent paint getting into the groove, which you then have to clean out in order to reseal the tin. I thought that was a good idea and something I hadn't thought of. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this truck repair and I wish you had more spare time to post videos more often. But no doubt your job comes first, which brings in the money, so you can only do what you can do in your spare time. Hopefully you'll get your son's truck finished soon and you can get back to your '48 Chevy. All the best from Queensland Australia.
Good day Bruce, funny thing you mentioned the masking tape trick on the edge of the can. I literally had that same conversation with someone just about a few days ago and have not had a chance to try it out just yet. The footage from this video was shot about a month ago and the truck has been finished and painted for about a week and a half now. Everything turned out great and my son couldn't be happier. I try to push myself to do more as far as the video content goes, but every time I get ready to get behind a computer and start editing something else comes up and I got to run and take care of it. It normally takes me two full days just to put together a 15-20 minute long video and that's precious time that I don't have much of. But I've been gathering up more parts for the 48 truck, I am anxious to get back on that project once the weather clears up, we had a good streak of weather and now it's back to more rain with some sun breaks in between. I even got a new tool that will hopefully help me achieve some better results with certain things on the 48. I'll be doing a review on it after I push out a couple of more videos on the Nissan.
@@fix206 I know exactly what you mean when you are working on something and then something else crops up that needs attention straight away. It happens to me all the time. I'm just doing something, then something else needs my attention. Tends to slow things down quite a bit. Hope you have time for more video editing, as it will be good to the truck finished. We finally had good rain here in this part of Australia, after another long drought. A few weeks of rainy weather when we couldn't do anything outside, but now it's sunny again, but cooling off as we are in fall here now, with winter just around the corner, unfortunately, as I hate the cold. Hope you get some good weather over there. All the best from Queensland Australia.
I do want to build a channel up, and that requires me to upload more frequently. I might have to move some things around just to make that happen. Would be nice for the channel to start actually making some money so I could use those funds toward more exciting projects with more possibilities.
@@fix206
The build up is coming. :-) Your stuff is too good to be not be noticed by youtube much longer! Keep up the good work!
I sure hope so Phillip. Just not really sure how the UA-cam algorithm works. I'm sure it promotes a bunch of crappy channels and holds back a lot of good channels to. It's an enigma :-)
Where have you been, when can we see you finish Frontier?
Mark, I've been busy with a bunch of other projects. Frontier has been done for months, I got a ton of material filmed, just have to find time to edit it all and start posting
@@fix206
Looking forward to seeing them
What is that spot welder tool?
I built it myself... here is the detailed video of the process ua-cam.com/video/j6UgtCN5vzU/v-deo.html
@@fix206 Are you still doing UA-cam?
Yes, I'm still here just haven't posted in a while... But will start posing pretty soon
Давно не выходили видео.
Реально давно не выходили, работы просто по горло, нету времени монтировать видосы, но скоро обязательно начну выставлять новые !
Where do you buy your vvehicle's from
Normally I pick cars up either from Copart or insurance auto auction (IAAI) but sometimes I do come across a good deal from a private party...
@@fix206 you have some of the most informative videos and thanks for the reply.
Do you have a website or business page or is there a way to get a hold of you? I just got rear ended by some idiot without insurance and i don't have full coverage but wanted to see if my car could be saved or not & get a rough estimate. I live in Olympia and randomly came across your channel looking for repair videos lol
Hi John, I don't have a website, however we can get in touch if you'd like and I can recommend a colleague of mine that's been in a collision business longer than I have. Sometimes him and I collaborate where I will do all of the metal work and then he will finish the project by doing all of the body filler and paint. I know that a lot of the time whenever he works with his customers he will even partially or sometimes fully wave the deductible payment (depending on the situation). I can put you in touch with him so he can give you an estimate. But it is all depends but I'm hereI can put you in touch with him so he can give you an estimate. Hopefully it's not a total loss where the cost of the repair would exceed the value of the vehicle.
@Fix206 well i only had liability insurance so all of this is coming out of my own pocket 😔 but that's extremely nice of him to do that . I'm not sure how you guys work, or if you only work as a team but i think I'll have the paint portion handled. I'll either paint it or have my good buddy do it he just charges me supplies and a pretty low flat fee... Unless your partner does it pretty cheap which im sure he doesn't cuz i know what goes in to body & paint work and wouldn't feel comfortable asking him to do that. I just gotta pay for everything myself so trying to keep the cost down any way i can. I was more just mainly looking for the metal work
@@fix206I'm thinking of getting a rolling shell and swapping everything over vs the price of getting it repaired if it can even be repaired.. and the car there was only 12,400 made for the US the year it came out and only 1,000 in my color so I'd like to keep it on the road if possible and I'm sure it KBB's a lot less than I've put in to it
90% of all the work that my buddy does is insurance work. So I'm pretty sure that would be the rate that he would be charging, otherwise he would be doing work at a discounted rate which I'm not sure most technicians would do, unless they're willing to cut corners. I don't think that would be beneficial to either party. It all comes down to the iron triangle “Fast, Cheap or Good? Pick Two.” Quick + Cheap = Inferior Quality. Quick + High Quality = Not Cheap. High Quality + Cheap = Not Quick or Not Possible
@@fix206 @Fix206 oh man, i typed out a whole thing a few days ago and i must not of hit send or something cuz it doesn't look like it got sent. My apologies about that. But do you work alone(without the paint guy)? Like could i get you to do the major metal work type stuff? And I'll either get my buddy to help me with paint or I'll save up againv(depending how broke i am after i paid you(if we do business that is) Like i said the guy had no insurance so everything will be coming out of my own pocket/cash so I'm trying to do this as cost effective as possible.(if possible)
When you coming back?
I'll be back with new videos here very soon...
Make your own paint booth
I just need a bigger house with the good size shop and I'll be golden :)
Any new videos coming soon?
Hoping to push another video this coming Sunday

Very true! Keep those diesel rings as far away as possible from the work area !!!LOL

Fix I miss your post. I hope all is well?
Philip my friend, all is well on my end. It's been a busy summer for me, think I've been able to complete about seven or eight projects thus far... Been working and filming a lot, spent some time editing but didn't get too far because of other things are getting in the way. Generally takes me two full days to put together a 15 minute long video and finding 2 days per video had been difficult as of late... But I promise it won't be long until next video will come out :)
I am glad to here all is well. I read where others which post youtube videos speak of the time needed for editing. The good news when you put out a video it is top quality... :-) Thanks for all you do in education. Top quality education I might add.... Phillip Hall
As always, Philip my friend, thank you for the kind words. I promise that once I start posting again it will be well worth the wait!!
@@fix206
No doubt in my mind. You are tops!
It’s been a while since last video.
I know :( Had a really busy summer. Finished close to 8 other projects, been filming a lot, just no time for editing. Rain season in Seattle is upon us, so I'll be spending more time indoors, editing and posting here real soon... Stay tuned, I got some real good footage coming your way in a near future!!!

I'm still around my friend, just about every day I think about sitting down in front of the computer to edit some videos to post, but something else always gets in the way :-(
You must not have many bugs flying around.
The bugs are out there... But I've been painting outside for so long that I've learned to see the patterns, later on I'll do a video where I'll explained in great detail what I've learned about outside painting and how I can get nice paint jobs with minimal dirt and bugs...
Cool I think everyone would like that information.

practice on a crome piece (gotcha gotcha ! i grab my moms pans bend then and practice..play video again for next step) that is not visible (my mom will notice this... i'm dead )
Practice makes perfect, even if it is on your mom's pots and pans :-)
Do you think about your neighbors? Some of them may call to police because of that noise and fumes.
I try to keep the noise down as much as I can, same goes for the fumes. I don't paint very often, and normally when I do, I do it during the weekdays when most people are at work. I don't paint entire vehicle, usually its just one or two panels at a time, this way there is not enough overspray in the air for most folks to notice...
done yet? :/
Yes my friend, it's been done for quite some time now :) This summer has been super busy for me, I've got quite a few projects accomplished, and I'm finishing up another Rolls-Royce. Got a ton of footage filmed, will start editing soon and posting again
