Retired 15 years ago after professionally painting for 35 years. Love these videos and truly miss being a painter. Had to retire do to cancer. You guys out there use the respirators. I started painting in the 70's so alot of shit was done differently. Peace

I'm 22 years in my friend, everything from bicycles to fighter jets & vintage WW2 aircraft here in the UK. I've always used a full face mask with breathing air connected to there own separate designated compressors but I remember the older guys (when I started) telling me about half masks & vaseline(petroleum jelly?) with a bandana round the head to keep overspray out their hair! Some health & safety isn't just a pain in the arse! 😊

We need videos showing how to paint single stage paint with small compressors and LVLP guns. Most of us are DIY guys and don't have the expensive tools

I used an ozito gun from Bunnings from the twin package and after much trial and error, I’ve gotten nice results with metallic paint of all things (wish my car wasn’t metallic paint now), I left the plastic filter in and has saved a few bits of crud from shooting into my paint

Yes! If like many of us your using a 110V compressor, you have trouble maintaining the 6CFM that the purple HF gun wants. How many gallons your tank holds only affects how long you have to wait for the compressor to catch up!

@@hobbyautobodyfun9315 that's not 100% true. The prep is important and makes a good spray job last, it doesn't make a bad spray job good. The gun makes a difference as well as technique. It's just not that cut and dry.

Two things, I put the little filter with the little nob stick pointing up, this makes it easy to remove when cleaning the gun. Second thing I run a 50/50 mix of ascitone and lacquer thinner over the little filter every time after use this keeps it nice and clean. I've been having good results.

I'm not a painter much beyond some machine tools or spray cans but I learned more in this 11 minute video than from any other previous source. If I ever start doing much painting I'll come back here.

The best teacher for DIY painters. Detailed explanations, step by step guidance.

We all knew that, that little piece needs to be removed, we are not naive specially if we use these sprayers to spray paint.

It is so satisfying to see the transformation. It’s addicting. I want to paint another project. But then I’m reminded of my pickup sitting in my garage, I need to sand out many runs, and cut n buff.

thanks for not polluting the video with like/ subscribe requests (unlike some other channels). Simple and straightforward presentation. 👍🏻

I remember those little s.o.b.'s helping me mess up panels when I was 1st learning how to paint. As soon as I ditched 'em, totally different experience! I don't think I've ever come across a video that talked about those gun filters, so thanks for pointing them out.

Just painted my car in my drive way today after watching hours of these videos, aside from good ol bugs landing in the clear went smooth

I'm doing the door bottoms and whole box on my 2009 pu. I've watched several of your videos and can't believe how many tricks there are. Today is the day. I feel that I can pass as a painter but not a body man. Whatever the result I thank you for the professional tips and well presented videos. It's just paint.

You’re really good at this, not only your professionalism, but your presentation skills. Top content.

Great tip....I was having problems getting enough paint volume, but after watching this, I removed that little filter and it made a substantial difference in the results....thanks!

Appreciate your tips. Enjoy all your lessons. Thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to produce these videos. Thx for educating us.

I use that same gun and it works surprisingly well for the cost. I simply run lacquer thinner through the gun when I'm done painting and that cleans it out very well. Every 5 or 6 paint jobs I take the gun completely apart, soak the innards in lacquer thinner and then reassemble. I've been doing this for several years now with no problems......

Old school works good job .i spray metal iron door units black, ive sprayed now 44 years and with current spray tech advancements makes ya love spraying even the more . Nice Red .

Im loving the tips your offering me, I never even knew what the dials on a paintgun were for until I started watching you my friend,Im getting towards painting my dodge hemi in my makeshift paint booth in my backyard,,,ie a carport ,but after your tips im getting damn good,thanks a great deal,

Crazy how one little part can make a difference.

Always great information! I’ve learned so much! Thanks!

I could watch you paint all day ..

Thanks Brain I was about to start a project and was about to ask you if I should use the little filter ! I saw this and there was my answer ! Great videos and you do an amazing job teaching!

always learning something from you!! Thanks once again!

How funny, that little filter came with my gun, but I didn’t know where it went. I painted without it and love my finished product. I painted a semi truck with single stage paint. Thanks for the video.

I love it... you do it simple and easy to learn

I agree, it looks good.

Great videos , even though i have been painting for many years , with all the new technology out i have had to adapt to the new procedures and new paints . Your videos are a great way to get caught up with the new methods , thanks for taking the time to do these videos, they are greatly appreciated .

Wow! I’m just now learning about painting, Glad I found this tip…I would have used that stupid little filter religiously and probably never figured out why my painting sucked. Thanks!

Watching this guy work gives me the patience and thoroughness I sorely lack in my life.

Thank you great video, will apply your techniques when I paint my boat.

as someone that used to paint his own vehicles when we had acrylic enamel and not this clear coat stuff, i will be looking for that type of paint when the time comes. when i did my own vehicles people were amazed at the quality of the paint job and would ask me to do theirs which i did not. my ex son in law was a body man and he commented all the time on how my paint jobs were better than most of the shops he worked in but like i told him i take my time because its my vehicle and i dont want it looking like crap in 6 months like in some of his work that he did on his vehicles. like you, i used to put more than one or tow coats of paint on so it looked good and it lasted.

Great demonstration.

Very well done! You made this video easy to understand and was entertaining to watch the whole video, thank you!

I like to blow the inner chambers with air before i use them because sometimes paper towels and shop rags can leave lint inside. The 3m plugs actually fits in the adapter so you can leave it there when not in use, keeps lint and dirt from getting inside the chamber. Check fan patern on paper on the wall to purge out any lint or dirt thats left before painting.

Great video Brian, thanks for explaining how to use that pps system. When I tried using that it didn’t go well, leaked horribly and it was probably user error like you have said in a previous video.

Thanks Brian 😊 you the best 👌

Brian taking guides and learning from your experience is something only results can answer Biggest fan over here all in South Africa wishing you a blessed life and more knowledge, please help me and send me one of your old favourites of spray guns that is not in the usage stages .. Thank you

Great job Brian,keep up the tutorial of painting vehicles love it

Brilliant, clear speaking and knowledgeable

Brilliant video it was very satisfying watching that clear coat go on and your a brilliant teacher Thankyou

Amazing stuff as usual. Thank you

Wow beautiful!

Greetings from Malta in Europe. I never sprayed anything before but your videos gave me enough knowledge to spray my dad's car exactly a year ago which came out great and saved us a lot of money. Now I have the confidence to spray my classic car. Any video on how to setup a home garage "spray booth" with filters so that i don't have trouble with neighbours? Thanks again and congrats on your baby!

Thank you very much brian,been looking for this guide,been thinking if i should remove it or not,because it restricting my paint after multiple use,keep up for more tips and guide, all the best👍

Great technique video showing how gun is held and and back and forth motion and the double spray coverage with the clear coat vs the paint coat application. Thanks!

super finishing Great

Great input appreciate it

Nice job keep up the good work.

Thanks again for another great video 📸

Good video as always,great clear how to's

looks great !

Great tip. Thanks for sharing it.

When the gravity guns became popular in the early 90's I threw those internal plastic strainers away, I used a quality strainer, didnt see the need for anything restrictive in the gun

Great explanations and highly instructrive video’s. Can’t wait to try!

Thank you.. Great job

Hey Brian, great video as always. As far as I understand, these are single use filters. I've worked with Sata RPS cups, they send the cups and 2 types of filters: 125 µm for usual basecoat and clear and 200 µm for sealer, clear or basecoat with big metallics (rather special bascoats, will say so in datasheet). In those cups you can/need to apply the filter you need yourself everytime. Don't know about availability in the US though, I believe it's a German company. But anyway, to me it looks like the filter mesh is a lot broader, so it might be like 200µm filters....? Have a good day.

Great video for a beginner; Goodbye filter! I think I will try the PPS cups. Cheers Steve

i bought my first paint gun yesterday from harbor freight and was looking at that filter thing wondering what that was for . now i know , thanx

I think that little tip on the filter is supposed to point up, so you can grab it while removing the filter.

I filter the paint before putting it in the cup old school style.

Nice work brother!

Nice clean job...

The pot neck strainers also restrict paint flow too much. I just cone filter the paint (basecoat, 2K solid or clear) as I put it in the pot, and also pop the lid cap. When spraying this allows that little better airflow through the lid, and it doesn't leak if you're careful with tilting gun for under edges etc only with paint flow happening.

Awesome Video, thanks.

Fantastic as always! 😊

Hi Brian. Really enjoy your videos. Learning a lot. Maybe you can do another video showing the difference between filter/no filter using the same HF gun. I would assume cleaning the filter after each use would mitigate the issue you were having, but it would be nice to know for sure.

love it,goot explenation.keep up.

Gorgeous!!

I love to watch ur videos , I buy some stuffs just to practice, and give to my brother, just for hobby for me.

I learned a lot from the shop video s...thanks...it's awesome... Working

Thanks for the info

great video man thanks you.

Beautiful

I love all these videos 💪

100% correct!!

Está muy bueno muy profesional te felicito

Thanks!!

Good job man 👍

Love the videos thanks for the Links in the description

I actually like using the filters in the gun. But I put them into the hopper and not the gun. It catches all the stuff in the filter from the hopper and all you do is take it out and use a air hose to get all the stuff out the filter. Run some acetone into the gun and filter and it’s good to go for the next day

Great video I still use the small filter even though I use the paper filter as well but I DioGuardi the in gun filter after every paint job and have never had any problems

Well done amigo 👏

Thanks I learned a lot with just that video. Easy to understand very well explained. Greetings from Maine

another awesome one Dude !

I ran into this issue on the weekend spraying primer using a borrowed gun. Stupid filter clogged up and sprayed like box liner. Took the filter out, nice and smooth!

Thank you so much for this video سپاسگزارم

Great Video! 👍 Thanks for your time! Can you try to make a video spraying clear coat with the DV1 Basecoat gun?

Damn, nice tips and paint job!

thanks for that tip brill

great job

Thank you brain I learned many things from your videos 🌹❤️❤️

Nice job, you're an excellent teacher! 👍 I recently sprayed some homemade cabinet doors with my Spectrum HLVP conversion gun and got pretty good results using Sherwin Williams Infinity diluted 1:4. Do you have any tips for woodworkers, or for those painting objects other than cars?

Man I can't wait to see that beautiful Milano Red Si it's going to be worth a lot of money

I use the strainer inside the gun with no issues just clean it out when you cleaning the gun an still use the paper strainers also

I havent had too much experience personally with painting at all YET (off and on for the past 2 years, mostly rattlecan and rattle can clearcoat with some really good results), and I finally bought some guns off eastwood and they had the filter in them.. well I have been using the filter and obviously since I don't have much experience I don't expect a perfect finish, but it doesn't come close to Brians (probably gun settings honestly since I am getting used to HVLP) After I finish painting, I let the filter soak in laquer thinner with all my other parts for about 10 minutes or less, and clean everything thoroughly. I also use the paper strainers, however I am going to give it a try and take out the filter from the gun and only use the paper strainers. I have a clearcoat job in the morning and I am excited to see if this changes anything and pumped to see how nice it hopefully will be.

Nice...good advice.

That's right, specially if you turn off your lights and use a special flashlight you will see all the places where your paint didn't cover. I agree with this guy 100%

Good work

Makes me miss painting.

Very good work

I sprayed some 50 ish micron glow pigment in some clear right through that little filter. It has the consistency of fine sand. The inline filter is more like a debris screen cause it ain't filtering much.
