I'm more amazed by the mix-it-yourself spray paint station than the paint job. We don't have anything like this where I live.

Hey guys just incase people really want to use this as a guide, here are some tips. **Always apply primer surfacer before and after spray putty. Wait 10 minutes between all coats. **Also a plastic primer is needed for bare plastic and etch primer for bare metal. **The primer needs to dry overnight before sanding and for metallic colours finish with 800g **Leaving the base overnight is not really the best thing to do. Spraying the clear within 30min of applying the base is the best, the pores of the base coat are still open and ready for the clear. The clear can possibly peel and have poor adhesion otherwise. Wouldn't want all that work to go to waste. **The clear from a can needs to dry overnight then sanded with 1200g and buffed with compound to get the correct gloss. Getting people keen on spraying their own car is awesome good video. Cheers

People always complain about orange peels when painting with spray cans but if you do it the proper way and polish it like they did, it is in fact possible to achieve the same finish as professionnal paintjob.

Hey fellas, I have watched every video you have made and I love what you guys do, I have watched a few videos of yours for guidance on my car.The push start button, tacho and others but recently I watched this video on spray can paint, after watching it I felt ballsy enough to try it myself and it actually worked out great.I appreciate the time you guys take to make these videos, keep it up guys love you work.
Thank you Marty and MOOG for this video and others. Just bought an aftermarket factory-style unpainted spoiler for my wife's '14 impreza and this video helped a ton!

Guys I got so far and was disappointed with my results, then I watched. You proved that where I was at was doin fine and gave me the confidence to follow through and finish what I'd started. I did a coat of clear after the base then left over night..Hopefully in line with CSM's recommend I might just pull it off! I only wish humanity would pull together in the way folks do on KZread! We might actually last a day without gunfire...
Just to let you know, its all because of you guys that i started looking for a Turbo Outback (Liberty) and has lead me to my new car. so thank you guys very much i needed a daily for school and you guys helped me greatly

I work at Super Cheap Auto in Perth, Western Australia. We play this, and your 3M wrap video on our TVs around the store. Customers love it and it boosts out profit on 3M Wraps and Paints, Good job guys, love it:D
Im new to this so let me recap: Step 1 clean car Step 2 buy stuff - matched paint code color, sand paper, spray bog to fill spots, masking tape, newspapers, waxing grease removal, garbage bags, respirator, primer, filler primer, base coat/clear coat, buffing coat/polisher. Step 3: wax grease removal your car, mask everything off, put bags on tires. Step 4: sand down car, apply primer. Do about for coats. Sand it back so it's smooth. Apply a filler primer. Check with hand for smoothness. Step 5: spray base coat over primer slowly. Once base coat is applied wait 12 hours then add your clear coat. Step 6: once clear coat drys apply a buffer/polisher. Is this the correct way to do it? Please help lol

Just did a touch up of my car over the last few days, using this as a guide, car is now sold at the price I wanted and the new owner impressed with the condition of the 15 yo car!
So I got a replacement fender from a junkyard and it's a different color, I have to sand it, apply coats of primer and then spray the color matched paint right? Or can I just spray the paint after sanding?

so good to see MCM back to its DIY roots
how much did all that cost?
Surprised they didn’t mention around 4:35 the reason it’s better to remove the panels, if you’re doing a full job, is to get better coverage on the edges of the panels, and run less risk of it peeling from those edges in the future Also both Marty and Moog have some major mistakes with their spray technique, Marty was too close and fanning it, and Moog was just whipping his arm back and forth lol. Supposed to keep the nozzle exactly parallel to the surface you’re painting, and move about a foot per second, little bit faster or slower depending the thickness of coat you’re on. Still a fun watch, there aren’t more entertaining car guys on the entire planet *Edit:* the techniques got way better over the course of the video lol
Well we did it!!! My son and I who both have little or no experience in such matters attacked the sun beaten bonnet of my 2004 Mercedes. Yes we fu&ked up a bit, but in some parts it looks amazing. No matter what it is infinitely better looking than it was three days ago and we have yet to polish/buff it. Thanks Marty & MOOG and SuperCheap Auto (Australia). The Paint was mixed to perfection.
Good to have yous back lads.

The thing about rattlecans is, the run out of paint thing usually happens before the good coverage thing. then you have to go get more. And then you have screwed up bits where you ran out. And then you have to sand more. And then you have to waste more paint. And then you run out again. And before you know it, that 20 dollar rattlecan job has 200 dollars of body filler and primer and paint and clear on it, and still looks half-assed. Oh, and then the wind picks up and you get a crap finish, waste a bunch of paint, and you get overspray all over your car. And after a while your crappy rattlecan paint fades in and matches your car for like a week, and then it keeps fading....

They sell just about any size you could want also.

Bulgdoom Super cheap auto is the store they went to in Australia and to be honest it's not that great. Any paint shop with a colour spectrometer can match paint for you. Just take off something like your gas flap (fuel lid) and they use a device that can determine the colour by analysing the light. Any good paint store should be able to do this for you. Good luck, even I'm surprised by the result of what they achieved with rattle cans.

The odds of ending up with a mismatch between the fender-door/hood is pretty high if your not blending out your color. Following this process using 2-part aerosol cans (contain a hardener) would greatly improve the quality and durability.
