    Teaching is a science and you my friend, have it down to a tee. I am a hardcore diagnostician. Done everything from electrical, mechanical, engine swaps, AC you name it. I purchased a vehicle from an auction and did everything else but the bodywork. I was a bit antsy until I watched your video. Thanks and Happy 4th!!!

    Very good, simple to follow, and informational. I bought 3 paint products (base paint, pearl paint and some medium reducer) to paint a small area on my wife's SUV. The paint vendor was very vague about what to mix and how much. You video made it all very easy to understand, and why the ratio are what they are. Thank you very much!

    Thank u I appreciate you taking time away from your personal life. I took a auto introduction class 20 years ago & used that trade for few years in hobby life but then had to get a McDonald's job bc as a young convicted felon was all I could get. Now in my mid 40s still not doing financially well so I am buying a project & don't remember how to paint. Back then there was no KZread university.

    awesome video thaanks , i have a question tho about primers if im having a bare metal piece i need to use epoxy primer or self etching primer , and put over them 2k primer ? and how a bout a non bare metal piece what should i use before base coat ? thanks again

  • @Mechaniclyfe

    @Mechaniclyfe

    3 жыл бұрын

    Depending , you can use either epoxy or self etch to bare metal. With some epoxy primers you can go straight to Basecoat, but there is a window to be able to do that, after that window it must be sanded Before applying Basecoat. High build primer can be used for Body panels that had body work done. If the panel is nice and flat with no dents, you could even use a sealer before applying Basecoat or sand and apply Basecoat right on top of the original paint as long as the paint wasn’t peeling .again depends on surface and body work needed.
