That was a pleasure to watch, just wondering why the body in a semi-down and parts done in a down draft?

@fallingspikey

thx, good eye on that.. the down was used all day fri afternoon for production, takes a few hrs to get this ready and didn't want tie up the downdraft during that time is the only reason really.

Great video jimmo. My only problem is with a true candy I always walk the whole side of the car. If this were say a house of kolor or carrizma candy you would see a vertical stripe in the middle of the door where you overlapped.

@Sock110

ya, true. that makes more sense.

I have used the accuspray primer gun, never the base. Also why don't you use a crate, or a folding scaffold to do the roof's? It makes the job so much easier.

Nice job, keep the vids coming.

@MrAdamseye

same gun, just different tips..it's pretty nice. Ya, might have worked better here. I'm always worried when I have more junk in the booth that I'll knock it up against the car or it will deflect my airline onto the car.. I can be a bit clumsy at times..lol..on completes where possible we'll sometimes even do the roof separate...but ya, definitely not the worst suggestion! thx

@EVILWS666 Fish eyes?

[connor9766]

nice job.

[aracp]

you buffed the dry spray out of the hood...right?

[402omb]

idk if you are useing one but i recomend the flexzilla hose

[Filmpest]

So why do you use the full (sata looking) air mask sometimes, but the regular respirator other times. Does it have to do with the paint you're using?

@jimmo4life hi where i can buy the accuspray gun?

[393STROKERer]

Nice job. Question, Is one cup of paint enough to go around once, or do you stop to refill it? Do you already have it mixed and ready?
