For anyone watching....you dont need a 60 gallon air compressor, get a 30 gallon 120v compressor and a LVLP spray gun, you can paint a car without having to buy the same compressor used in a full industrial paint shop. If you have the moeny to spend thats another thing, but if you are poor dont think you just cant do the work because you absolutely can paint your car with a LVLP gun and smaller compressor. You need to check your CFM airflow on the compressor and make sure your LVLP gun falls under that CFM the compressor puts out.

Great video! You almost covered Eastwood's entire catalog for painting in this video.

I’m 20 years old, have been building my 79 z28 since I was 16, finally have the car finished mechanically, and have been watching your paint series over and over again as I’m doing bodywork because I’ve never done bodywork before much less paint, but hey you’ve gotta start somewhere. But after watching your series, I’m ready to shoot the paint this weekend! Thanks man! Shout out to Eastwood also for most of my supplies

I'm getting ready to paint my 66 Barracuda, should be ready in about a week. i am watching videos to keep my passion fueled, and stay informed. It's a lot of friggen work, a lot more physical than I've ever imagined. first and last car i will ever restore. it's a good thing i love her.

Great info and giant commercial. Good job Kevin, I bet those producers were pushing info in your headset and then telling you to breath and slow down then speed up. Better you then me. Ha ha

Much love from lethbridge Alberta canada 🇨🇦

Kevin i am watching u from germany you r really competent and nice Person...

really appreciate these videos very very informative. im a mechanic tech with no body paint experience that being said. i reconstructed the front of my tenth anniversary 99 miata the paint cracked all the way to the metal all the way around the front when i got wrecked. sanded the whole car down to base metal and am going to paint it two tone sky blue with 4-5in of white at the bottom. watching half a dozen of these live videos i feel confident i know what im doing to make the car look great at the end.

Great video, I’m from Tennessee also, I’m a beginner and learning from your videos

Kevin is the most entertaining person for this kind of stuff. I like the spray paint videos he did.

SOY JOSE MARIA.. DE ARGENTINA MUY BUENOS LOS VÍDEOS. ESTOY RECONSTRUYENDO UN CHEVY HACE ONCE AÑOS JAJA.. Y SUS VÍDEOS DAN UNA NOCIÓN DE COMO HACER LOS TRABAJOS DE UNA MEJOR MANERA!!

Excellent video!

Very informative video Kevin. I have gone through most of your videos seeking the knowledge of paint types/systems right from body work till final glossy finish, but haven't found any. can you please make a separate video to guide us about these different paint types and also would appreciate if you can guide as how to distinguish between different systems and their pros and cons.

This is phenomenal information for a knucklehead like me LoL 🤣 thank you 😊

It is a shame that this isn't getting more views. I wish that the camera would zoom in when he is showing us products that he is explaining for us newbies.

Thanks Kev for all the videos I'm watching here in Australia. I would like to see a video on how to sandblast a car body, what size air compressor to use and what blasting material to use as I want to restore my old 450 SEL 6.9 Mercedes.

wow nice tools 👍 perfect

thank u sir for more idea...i learn more from u...

awesome video...

and he is an excellent technician is just that by endorsing eastwood he makes money easier.

Watching you from here in Crossville TN, I am in the middle of restoring a 66 Chevelle and I use Eastwood products I love there products and watching your videos is helping me a lot specially in the body work area of which I am not the best at but with your help I am gaining confidence to do the job right, I do have a question is it necessary to strip the whole car practically down to the metal before applying primer?

I’ve always wanted to know how to do body work . I’m 32 years old . Love old muscle cars .

+Eastwood Company did you guys ever upload the paint planning template?

I don’t need a welder to paint is a commercial for Eastwood !

wish i had the need for a mobile workstation.. shop so small; need a hammer/dolly - reach to the left.. need grinders/drill - reach right.. anything else, search the attic, garage, or somewhere in my house..

what grit do you recommend for candy colors. It's my first time with a tri coat. and I have not picked up a spray gun in 35 years. starting to get back into auto body work to pick up some extra money, and just because I enjoy doing it mostly.

Eastwood is cool. But have you heard of Harbor Freight?? Lol. Kidding. I have a MIG 135 promise

I want to do a respray on some fenders, what grit do you use to sand that down and do I just go straight to color and clear???

How recent are the techniques in the paintucation videos. I'm real picky who I learn from.

This really helped me. But you did go back and forth

do you have a large ventilation system when you are doing your sanding to clear the air?

With enough prep, and following up with enough wet sanding, and clear coats... is it possible to have a good job with spray paint rattle can?

Just a quick question. What is the nest msskimg tspe to use. Amd masking paper? Tjsnls Kevin. Yoi have tsught me so much.👍🤟🏻👌😁

Kevin,If I soda blast a corvette, what is the best sealer to use to protect the fiberglass as a do small repairs?

I just need your PM so when I am painting that I can ask you question!

Hello Kevin Tetz, Eastwood, or to anyone in this industry, I have been forced to change my career. My age is 49.5, I am an extreme perfectionist, I'm extremely detail oriented in everything I do, and I learn quickly. Lastly, I am OBSESSED with cars and trucks. I'm considering beginning a career in the auto-body, painting, and restoration industry. I was planning to retire at age 65... That gives me 15 years, or longer to learn, work hard, and try to be successful. My question is: "Am I too old to begin a career in this particular industry?"

i have a car im working on and have 2k primer on it and have block sanded with 400 .i want to know if i sand down back to metal during blocking and guide coat do i need to spray self etching primer over the spots i have took back down to metal or what do you suggest

I know you guys do cars But I'm a starting out luthier I fix and make guitars what do you recommend for an air compresser for finishes on guitars I heard 3.5 hp is good enough not sure the psi. I figure its a smaller job than autobody

How do you know what a good quality pain is what is usually the pain with ratio and really good quality pain

jeeeeeeezzzz 6 min before even he starts talking about what title is. when someone says"they not gonna try to sell you anything " BS and this is testament to that .

I have a question with plastic on a car it can cause static would you have to have the gun to get rid of it or can you have a ground underneath hook to the frame

Hay can you do a peroile green paint

17:36 He sound like he was about to freak out lol. But any real quality loving person, whether beginner or expert, know you must have all components ready to do any job and can't worry about so much on the price. Being cheap when you don't have to really hurt you in the long end.

What is the best spray gun for your buck

I will go with the biggest and less expensive co. I think you are remarketing the same product as less expensive co. What is your answer??

is the best way to get the old paint off with dustless blasting to get down to bare metal which saves a lot of sanding and then immediately spray metal prep to keep from rusting?

Where is the best place to install a dessicant whip? At the compressor end or the paint gun end, does it matter?

@car_ventures

9 жыл бұрын

larryz24 Paint gun end is the best place. That way it reduces the chance of any moisture build up that could occur along the length of the air line. If you get a chance to see a painter in a booth, they'll often have a belt on that connects to the long air line and then they have the whip hose connected to the belt, going straight to the gun. Makes it easier to control the air line too as you only have to focus on the ~3 feet of hose.

What’s a DVD?

This my first time painting with a gun I got the black paint and thinner from your company and measurement cups with strain and stir sticks is there anything else that you think I need dont know how to determine how to get the right mixtures the first part I'm painting is the frame as soon as I'm ready

how much ur air filter sir?

don't you just change the filters on the mask to keep painting? and is there a place to have your mask inspected to see if it is still good and extend the service life?

@eastwoodco

4 жыл бұрын

Assuming your using the proper cartridge for the work at hand, if they're collecting dust or debris it'd say change them once you notice it's hard to pull through. Also for chemically filtering, say spraying 2 component paint, if I can smell it it's time to change filter. As always, best practices should be followed by manufacturers to be totally safe.

How do you blame new paint with your old paint

why would i need a welder to paint a car? I think a LOT of people are confusing painting a car with a restoration of a car. When I think of painting a car I think of just that putting color on a car, not all the crap that has to be done to restore a car before paint. Can you post a video on what you need to actually JUST paint a car at home?....like minus the car restoration that comes before the paint

Lol. He seceritely picks on Lincon and Miller without saying the names XD.

I've got a question, actually few questions. You see, in my country, we devide body work from paint jobs works (one guy does one, the othet dude does the second). I would like to specialize for paint jobs. Ive already got a guy that does a great job with body work, so its on me to paint it and just finish up his work (filler etc) therefore i dont need a gun for dents and such. I want to learn about paint guns, fillers, primers and more. Cars only.
