David West Thanks mate :-)

Always amazed when watching a professional at his craft, they always make it look so easy. How long it must have taken, not to mention how much money, it took to develop those skills.

Just the type of video I needed

Very instructive, tyvm for sharing.

Sorry I know old Video. But that is a damn nice job.

I'm actually planning on painting off center stripes on my falcon down the hood , roof, and trunk .. I know I have to paint the car first, and then the stripes but I was wondering when anyone does a two tone or maskes of certain sections of a panel with tape and paper after the tape is removed there is an edge, I was wondering how I would get that edge off. Would It be in the buffing and sanding stage when I do that or no

Great job buddy

good work brother .

Enjoy your vids. Painting stripes on a Cessna....very tough to get the tape to lay down over rivets, any ideas on best tape to use and methods?

hey mr. gunman. what does clear over base mean? do u mean that u cleared the red before u masked it? thanks again from florida, usa

If I don't want to feel the stripe at all I want it to blend in touching it do I sand the stripe before the clear coat or after?? Using base coat clearcoat.

How long do i have to wait for the paint to dry to place the masking tape on for the stripes, So i dont peal of the fresh coat underneat, Thanks

How do you get the tape so straight? CAS I having touble doing that

Good work man love your vids... I'm doing a colour change on my car what the best way to do the door shuts or do I have to take the doors off ???

Stuart Crossland Taking the doors will make for a much better job, get a mate around to help and they should unbolt easy.

Great video, great job :). I have a quick question, hoping you can explain it to me. When you paint the bottom red, then masked off the red and painted yellow, that would mean the yellow layer is higher than the red? how do you get around having that thick mask line between the red and yellow layers? i noticed you clear-coat over both red and yellow layers, would you clear over the red section 1st to build up a layer so it sits even with the yellow layer, then clear over both red and yellow so the clear is flat? Sorry if I make little sense, I think its one of the main areas of auto painting I dont quite understand.

Yes there was a slight build up, the way to fix it if it worry's you is to flow coat it, in this case it was a street car not a show car so I lived with it.

Good taste mate, you must have put many hours into that job and satisfaction from it must be very rewarding feeling :))) Quick question to you about that gun: Do you prefer it over prolite? What are differences with finish coming out? Regards SamP

Thanks man, I like both Pro and Lite, they are quite similar but a little different I do like the lighter weight on the lite and air caps are interchangeable so all my old caps won't go to waste, as for how they spray I find both good and can get very similar results with each.

What do the air caps do bud?

hey bud dont leave the airmask in the booth with overspray all over. You are going to be breathing the air thats floating in the room(paint) best bet is keep it on or put it in a case in a plastic bag so it doesn't get contaminated with paint which it will if you leave it in the booth open

what kind of cup is on the gun
