Painting A 4x4 In Custom Paint (Less Than $1000)
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
#build #4x4 #painting
How to paint a car with a singe stage metallic or pearl paint for under $1000 including all materials used to prep! A big job but if done right the results are amazing. Im super happy with how the paint layed out overall and for a cheap job this has turned out really nice!
I think the colour choice suits this build perfectly and now that everything is painted we can start putting it all back together!! Thanks for watching, hope you liked the episode, YEWW!!

Hey mate, just some tips: Use a good quality stick stirrer to mix bases etc pour your hardener/reducer/gun wash with the spout at the top, it'll reduce the wastage spilling everywhere (hope this makes sense lol) great work as always

You should’ve used a coral grinder abrasive pads, it strips it down to bare metal without touching the metal, that’s what I used for my coil cab and it took me a few hours to prep the whole cab

With the thinners keep the cap. Drill the centre. Modify to fit with a funnel. Seal it and then you can take it to each bottle for future use

A lot of those paint cans have a inner tube if you pull on the screw top lid it should pull out the funnel then screw off the red cap

Love watching your channel mate it’s so genuine and everything’s diy I would recommend you have a go at wet sanding cut and polish there’s so much dust in the paint so close to getting a perfect finish off the gun using single stage
Solid 🔥 Gotta be happy with the result. A lot of work but once it’s finished you’ll be able to see all the work put into this thing. Really nice 👌🏻

We always poured the thinners into another mixing cup, made it a lot easier to pour accurately and then you’ve got a cup of thinners for cleanup
Nice work mate 👍

Great video, love the colour. Where did you buy the paint from?
Seeing as you have raptor coated previously and had to do rust repair after raptor coating, what do u think is the best way to get raptor off a whole car? Mines painted bright red with the original white under without prep, it’s now turning pink, I want it gone. Old owner painted it, not me.
Tip thinners the other way round mate, ie lid/opening up ⬆️

Try walking the paint job if you do another one. Panel painting is a much better way to paint, no double a triple coating the edges of each panel. Also cuts your chances of running it in those areas 100%.
