1934 Ford Show Car-D.I.Y. Custom Paint Blending-Painting The Car-This Job Is DONE!

[ashabeiberman]

Always a pleasure to watch a true master painter at work.

[WyldsideRadio]

Awesome! Thanks Pete!! Question..When you painted the car do you need to wet the floor down with water to reduce any dust that may be in the paint booth?

[swrnc]

@WyldsideRadio Yeah, I start with water on the floor, but by the time I get done clear coating it's pretty much dried up..

[WyldsideRadio]

Awesome!!! Thanks Pete!!

Pete, wright on with the color sand buff, shit sucks!! I've built 2 street beasts from start to finish, just solid colors. I have another I've been working on the past year and a half, it was brought to me having been vandalized and sitting outside in that state!! OUCH it was smashed from head to toe, top to bottom, and I live in buffalo New York, the winters arent nice so you could imagine the repairs I had to preform on it?? I have it 90% done,have it in primer in which I also let my filler

[diyautoschool]

@71wicker Streetbeasts---What a beast of a car to build.

[saphcosmike]

Super advice Pete!!!

Can I ask what number filters do you use on your 3M mask? I'm using 6057

[swrnc]

@saphcosmike I believe they're 5201 filters.. What ever comes with the mask when you buy it. Pete

[saphcosmike]

@swrnc Thanks. I'm having a nightmare with my paint. I've re-done it twice and it looks shocking. I'm painting engine bay and can't get colour to match the original wings (fender). I've even splashed out on a Devilbiss gravity gun 1.3 tip. It's a very light Metallic Blue and I need it to look as near to as I can. Any ideas Pete?

[davesfarmfan1]

Im looking for one

[davesfarmfan1]

What kind of mask are they?

[StrikerTripleThree]

That came out fantastic as useally ...

[swrnc]

@StrikerTripleThree Alot of work and alot of sweat can get you far.....

[DEATHTRAPHOTRODS]

[Mantas840]

[1skylerpup]

[GarethDavidWebb]

That was a GREAT lesson pete! Thankyou



[oney135]

nice job pete

[blazerlover25]

good video pete lots of information here but im still laughing my tail off cause i seen you waving your arms around and thought the paint got to your brain and was making you do ballet dancing while painting lol although it could be a new concept comming soon to a theater near you pete does the ballet while painting haha

[retrogazele]

basicaly you have to sculpture..the lines of the car..not easy!! :(

[ziggassedup]

that came up real nice....and for the wet sand stuff...well let's just say I hate cleaning up parts

[swrnc]

@ziggassedup I used to do diesel mechanic back in the day, cleaning up parts in the parts washer was a mess, I always wore heavy rubber gloves because of the chemicals, the other guys used the stuff to clean their hands and arms off with it.

[harleyghost]

Thank you Pete, you sure do Great work

[yukonrott]

i know its alot of time but i honestly think u need to make ur own how to dvds pete.. like ive told ya before ive been doin this stuff for a few yrs now but i find myself learning something new from each of ur vids. whether its a new way to do somethin or a different product. ive been usin the hard rubber flat blocks for yrs and just got a durablock kit and holy shit its like nite and day. no longer do i have a 5 pound block i got a 5 ounce block.. i realy appreciate what u do pete.. thanks

[swrnc]

@yukonrott no--Id just give them away- for free. Im glad to hear the durablock kit is working out, it's one of the best investments for being a body man. Pete

[RamblinAround]

Learned a lot from this series of vids. It turned out great...looks like nothing ever happened.

[bimjales]

Nice job. This is what I am looking for when I watch your videos.

[TheRickfix]

thanks pete for the lesson on blending,you make it look so easy,i can blend solid colors alright but not so good on mettalics but thanks to your vids i will keep trying,looking forward to more of your great videos and thanks from rick from nova scotia canada and u have a good day and keep gettin her done

[tomswonderfulworld]

hey Pete,

Another great set of videos. Very explantory. And i also loved the gun adjustment details and showing us the blending process. Thanks for the knowledge Pete!

[8576688]

pete congratulations for your excellent work!. out of the series.! you have a gift and exploited it! sorry if misspelled not understand English! used the google translator! LOL! hug! I'm Brazilian! regards Renato !

[swrnc]

@8576688Thanks for the comments and support. Pete

[ThePaulgregg]

Wouldn't expect nothing less than perfection from u Pete. Does the color sanding do away with the two tone paint ridge between the colors? Also could u do a paint gun lesson about adjusting paint volume and air pressure sometime? Have a good one Pete.

[swrnc]

@ThePaulgregg When you apply the clear it basically gets rid of the paint edge, it melts it in where there is none. Ive been meaning to make a paint gun lesson, just seeems like time of day is on the short side right now. Pete

[woodzo40]

LookIng good. Hell i didnt see no dirt in it eather. Be a easy one to buff. Wish i could buff it cause no shit i love to sand a buff. Dont ask idk. I just do. If i lived in Texas i would DO IT FOR FREEEEEEE!!!!!! Cause My friend Pete always does free stuff. lol

[robineggb]

very nice.

[Preluzifer]

Pete, thanks a lot for this veeeeery interesting and helpful video! I learned a lot about blending colors ...

[MrBlueroads]

Great job Pete, I wondered how you would blend that in. That's gotta take a lot of practice. I love learning this stuff. Great teacher, thank's again.

[swrnc]

@MrBlueroads alot of mistakes and redos will get you far in life... better to learn from your mistakes then go to trade school...

[MrBlueroads]

@swrnc Amen to that.

[ceedell]

Excellent video Pete ! I love metal fabrication, painting, and color sanding & buffing, but hate doing the bodywork!

[swrnc]

@ceedell Id rather do body work over buffing... I HATE TO BUFF!

[vmaxcec]

do you colour sand with 2000 grit pete or 2500? do you go straight in with the finest grit or build to it?

ps nearly 1000 vids... keep em comin`

[swrnc]

@vmaxcec You want to work your way up from 1500 wet to atleast 2000. I go all the way to 4000 grit then buff and polish. On a show car you take extra care. On a regular car you can get away with 1500.. Take it easy Pete

[MrJsowa]

man good shootin' ,ya guess i just kinda realized your in texas,(im in michigan) anyway i got family down there near fort worth,ill have to see if they've heard of you.their last name is luther,anyway another great vid by my friend pete
