THANK YOU FOR THE EXCELLENT VIDEOS AND COMMENTARY ON YOUR PROJECTS. I'M SEMI RETIRED AND NEEDED SOME ME TIME. FOUND A BUNCH OF HOT WHEELS/MATCHBOX CARS THAT THE WIFE HAD STORED AWAY FOR YEARS TO GIVE TO OUR GRANDSON. SOME ARE IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE AND I'VE STARTED TO RESTORE/CUSTOMIZE SOME OF THEM. THANK YOU, I HAVE THE COURAGE TO GO FURTHER THEN JUST PAINTING THEM. DENNIS

Now that is something i would want on my shelf, very well done. Especially on the roof.

In the future you can try a heat gun when stretching vinyl. I have friends who use it on full size cars, and i use it on custom computer builds, and a bit of heat and really make vinyl stretch and sit perfectly flat. great work and i like the restos!

Great Idea thanks!!

Man. Ive gotten addicted to watching these videos. I love your attention to detail.

Looks like new to me. You do great work. Must have a lot of practice

That roof turned out great👍👍

Longer videos man!! I can't get enough! 😂

I really like these videos because they are short and very entertaining and you don’t over explain the process and steps👍🏽

The vinyl on the roof makes it look like a convertible. Well done

Looks like actual vinyl. Well done.

Great restoration bro

These videos are so satisfying

That is a nice touch and you did a nice job too. I was around in the days of vinyl tops and they had a chrome strip around the edges, that could be painted on.

Very cool, I am not a collector (yet lol) but I like to pick up a old car I like now and then. like the Lesney jeep today for a dollar. However I think restoring and custom painting might be a fun Winter activitie, so next Saturday I am going to pick up a bunch of .25 and .50 cent cars.

Way to go! And that film is excellent.

That vinal roof took it to whole nother level!!!! Friggin nice bro!!!!!!

That vinyl film is cool. You could use that for 1/24 plastic model kits too.

I so need some wheels. Great job on the old beater, that custom is amazing

That really turned out amazing.

You do some good work but that root beer does look pretty ruff. Keep up the good work

Wow!! Turned out great! 👍🏼

Nice job on this one

I would like to suggest that you try this film on a 2016 ford mustang gt350r in the new mainline

Thanks for the shout out! I knew you would appreciate it!

I recently bought a real 69 Eldorado, I have been looking for a Hot Wheels Eldorado to keep in the car or maybe make a key chain out of, but its hard to find them these days.

I like how the film looks as the roof but a simpler, easier to come by way of doing it is truck bed liner in a spray can, it will take a bit of practice to get it to spray out thin and evenly but it looks great finished, it also gives a sort of vinyl texture to the roof

awesome. It looks great

Another amazing tutorial...thank you as always...

nice, and beautiful

It's a beautiful piece in the great job

You are a god at this.

Excellent!

I love that vinyl top ... LOOKS GREAT : )

Letraset spoon-shaped burnishers are fantastic at spreading films and letraset as well good for getting bubbles etc out of the film and don't cost that much.

Good job

GOOD JOB!!!!!!!

2 things to say... 1). Good job on the paint and roof... 2). It would be nice to see how you remove the chassis from the shell and how you resecure it once you have done the paint work etc...? thanks..

Very cool!

sweet top.

i have a tip for you... put your car in liquid drain cleaner for one night then the paint comes off easly. greetings from holland

So cool.

Asombroso!!! Una belleza excelente tutorial gracias!!!

You make me wished I would have kept all my hot wheels from the 60's , I just didn't have the vision.

You have a choice in life: drown in clutter or have space to live in; I chose the first and now have so much junk I can hardly think. You made the right decision. You can always buy those old cars back on ebay or elsewhere.

It's amazing to me, that when I was a kid (in the '60's), I had 3 shoeboxes full of all these cars... I can't believe what they would be worth now... of course most of my collection was FUBAR from playing with them hard! In the dirt and bashing down our steep driveway. lol.

This is something i would do with one of my favorites, although i do not think i have the exact tools and solutions around here.

Nice vinyl roof !! I would love to know the name of the product. I will rewatch in case you mentioned it but I'm realy diggin the vinyl. I sent you a mesg about "spectra chrome" you are the pretty much the leading authority on "how to" refurbish castings and it would be cool to see you do a vidio using the spectra chrome. The equiptment needed to spray it yourself is over 5k so the obvious answer would be to find a shop that already has it and pay them but idk. I guess it may remain just a dream of mine. But if you would watch a couple vidios of spectra chrome being applied and i think you will see where I'm coming from.

I know this is an older post, but could one not get the same affect using texture coat paints ... even if they had to be repaint for proper color ?

Is there a gator grain texture thingy like this? I would like to make a replica of the "Black Ghost" I want to build a 1/25 scale car of the 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T S/E. That car has a gator grain roof and I would like to find a gator grain roof texture to apply on a 1/25 scale car.

Love it nice

hey two things. one: you should try to play the film on a convertible that has the top down, it would add a nice detail to a car acting as a real rain cover for the top, rather than the standard plastic. another great thing is that it won't take much of the film material!. secondly I have to say that I'm inspired by you to try and start making my own customs and I was wondering if I could have an email so I can ask you some quick questions. thanks!

Hot Wheels. dailen,

I have looked everywhere I can think of for the vinyl top material you used and can't find it anywhere. Any suggestions?

i have one of those and it is painted similarly but with paint instead of a sticker for the roof

I need to restore my 2014 corvette stingray hot wheels. Its got a bent wheel and a few scratches.

Baremetal is the Bob Ross of diecast car restoration

I have seen a lot of your work and its nice how you replate and spend time working on paint details BUT!!! - I would love to see you take a car and put an over amount of detail in it inot only then body but interior and grills/bumpers etc. just to see for a test of how far you can push the detail all over on a 1/64 model.

amaziing ;)

veeery cooool💪👊👍

that looks great i need to know where to get that film asap

You can try using the film for a bed liner look to some trucks

nice!

I wonder if blue masking tape painted black would work?

The spray Berliner from auto store spray cans would look just like vinyl on the cars just hold it about a foot away when spraying

couid you show the whole process please? stripping and prepping etc.

You want to thank people for subscribing if they have not? Haha. Awesome videos btw.

I found a 68 Pontiac gto, but absolutely NO RUST apparently. instant restoration

Amazing

I would like to say that you do awesome work on your custom hot wheel cars I would like to see you do a motorized Hot Wheels car one day I have a couple extra cars that wouldn't mind donating to that custom work you can have them just like to see what you can do to them

Yes amazing customs and a great job producing these videos

It is a nice car, and the new roof looks great, but where are all the panelllines from the doors? They hat gone completly by sanding of the corrosion from the body. You should have engraved/ rebuild the Panellines bevor painting.

U could use that stuff on ur dashboards to

Can you make a video on what to do with the rivits you drilled out and how to make it seem like they are on

Why do you only do a light coat of paint? You can still see the metal below it.. What not do extra coats and a clear coat? Regardless I love you videos!

@baremetalHW

8 жыл бұрын

lol define light... I would guess this has on the order of 18-20 coats. The paints are very transparent... and seeing the metal underneath is what they are known for...I am not sure putting another 20 coats would do all that much... if you put on to many coats you start getting a cloudy effect in the paint.. I probably should not have clear coated this one as the clear coat makes everything even more transparent.
