  • first of all you using "old" system , blending is done by different method , spray guns are old , you are using way to much material and time .

    i'm tellin this because i'm a instructor for Standox paints and i use a lots of other stuf .

    you have to tell people what pressure at the gun you use , what is the best method of application , is it conventional or water based color.........

  • @001MTR

    This is Diamont Solvent basecoat. How do your preferred methods differ? Ya the guns in this are older, but so is the video.I thought I had a popup indicating pressure but maybe not. What training center are you at?

  • I interpreted "yourself" in the title of this video to be a DIY job; when it clearly isn't. Years ago I had an attempt at body repairs on my old rusty mini, and even with guidance from a pro at the time, it ended up looking like crap. You're obviously very good at what you do, which is probably why you make it look so easy... and I know; it isn't!

  • how are you adjoining your roof ? ,,,peeling back the tape later and using a melter ??

  • what size air compressor do i use let me kno thanks

  • @00Mandingo00 quarter panel bondo/paint only ran about $350 at the shop I worked at

  • I thought this was going to be another hack do it yourself video. I was pleasantly surprised, awesome job, obviously you know what you are doing.

  • If you buy the cheapest plastic you can get your hands on, then yes the paint will flake off onto your job. If you put the plastic on the car with "this side up" facing down, you will flake paint onto your job. If you buy decent plastic, with the correct side facing out, you will not have a problem. You will also cut down on your masking time buy just doing a 2" perimeter tape, with the plastic to the tape.
