i am a hobby painter, but I learned so much from this video. This also shows why a good paint job cost so much.

October marked my 40th year painting. I started at a Corvette restoration shop in St. Louis in 1983. I was 13. The owner started me out painting frames and suspension and engines, and I moved quickly to full paint. It was around the time Dupont ChromaBase and ChromaClear came out and many of the bases were modified lacquers. Dupont reps told us for certain colors lightly sanding with 1000 grit dry before clearing was recommended for good adhesion. Good times. I do mostly full restorations, but occasionally paint a car worth taking completely apart and pulling all the glass to prep for paint, like a Grand National. With as much painting as I've done, I enjoy playing videos like this in the shop throughout the day just for something to listen to in the background. It's encouraging to see someone explain some skill or discipline as well as this, knowing someone who may want to start has a solid base to use as a reference and will get off to a good start. There are PLENTY of paint hacks giving garbage advice. It's good to see someone give a relatively basic tutorial, yet advanced enough anyone watching will learn something regardless their experience level.

That’s was awesome! I painted my 69 Chevy k20 last night metallic blue. Turned out pretty damn good thanks to your videos gave me the confidence and tips required! Thanks Brian!

It's the best candy paint masterclass i ever seen.

I’d call this the definitive repaint video. It’s comprehensive but no less detailed than necessary to achieve a good result. Well done to all involved. I’ve owned my fair share of cars but 20 years on, it’s my black EG hatch I’d want back.

Thats an amazing paint job, you guys are so clever. I didn't realise how much skill, patience and talent was needed to do this.

Rhino lined engine bay and interior. Never seen an engine bay done before. Nice!

This is what you call beautiful teamwork. You guys are awesome.

Wow what a long process. The car turned out beautiful. Nice job guys. Always enjoy your videos Brian. Keep up the great work.

Things have certainly changed a lot since the days when I sprayed so much Acrylic Enamel on cars and pickups. I have been watching your videos and preparing for an upcoming paint job on a full size Bronco restoration and color change paint. I will be using an inflatable paint booth outside. I appreciate all the videos you have showing the thorough process to get a good job. Thank you so much for these videos. My confidence level has risen and my wife's dream car (suv) will be looking very good.

Mirror mirror on the wall,this mutha fuda knows it all! Love your channel homie

I painted a friends truck this exact color earlier this year, he wanted a full color change so i did pretty much exactly what this video says and it came out much better than I and my friend expected! He wanted it painted red and let me choose the color, after all was said and done he's extremely happy, really love this color. All I just need to do now is color sand it and buff it out, or possibly flow coat it if my friend wants to spend the extra money on clear. Love your videos btw, very informative and your motto hits the nail on the head "Don't over think it, it's just paint." Keep up the great video's Brian.

I Do gotta say, thank you. I Only recently earned experience in the body collision and painting field, with a background in automotive mechanics and a spread of diversity in welding and fabrication across all techniques outside of the newer process of laser welding. Overall, ill say this video allows anyone with a sense of common understanding, the idea to expand beyond this, to seek more from their creativity rather than just spraying cause the boss told you, or the manufacturer gave you the steps. What you provide is a means for people to dive into more of what it means to be unique... Creativity. ThanK You.

Awesome video man! I learn so much every time

This was a great collab! Thanks again for your awesome work!

Wow. Beautiful, complex color, and the explanations that went along with each step of the process were phenomenal. Brian, watching you and Mario working together was like watching a ballet. This may be my favorite episode yet. Can’t wait to attack my classic car with everything you’ve taught. Thanks a million! Keep it up.

Absolutely Great!

It came out amazing. 😍😍😍😍

You have really changed my entire perspective or painting. The stuff you have taught me is something I will pass on to others.

As good as you are you make people who never thought about painting want to paint because you a good teacher and just that good thanks I appreciate you very much.

I don 't paint cars, I paint guitars - but this was a great video. I want to use this color and there was a lot of useful info here. Thanks for putting it out there.

You guys make this look so easy!! Fantastic job!

daaaaam what a finish!

I love it! What a beautiful color!

Awesome job sir. Love the voice over, now that I have taken on the role of training painter I uses a lot of the videos as tips on how to train painters and reminding them it’s just paint, don’t over think it!

I cant wait to see this in person, i had this color painted on my 88 CRX Si and it really is a color that pops in the sun. Great choice!

You guys really have a passion for excellence by taking your time and explaining things down to finite points /those little extra things that takes a paint job from good to awesome!! I learned alot and enjoyed tuning in today for the first time.......patience and being meticulous wins out in this profession and you definitely have all that and more!! Nice job!! Tim D

The 10 minutes between coats makes your day so much better

that paint job is amazing love how you went through all the steps it takes to do a good job thank you

Absolutely great video. Consistent & well thought out. Thanks for the tips

Love that color. My wife has it on her CX-5 and we get a lot of compliments on it.

I'm painting my truck 86 d100 thank you for explaining it so easily I thought it would be harder than this like you said don't think into it too much And that's what I'm gonna do thank you Brian👍

One of your best videos ever, Brian! Well done. My Mazda has that colour and the collision shop did a crappy job of matching the rear bumber they replaced. But they don't care. Insurance doesn't cover a perfect match or blend. It's a tough one.

Such an amazing video. Thank you so much for taking the time to produce and share it. I love Mazda’s Soul Red Metallic, I believe that’s what Mazda calls this color, to the point I’m seriously considering doing a complete color change on my Acadia with their color.

Great job ❤

That looks nice. I love the color it really pops

Always amazing videos with the best explanation🔥🔥🔥🔥

Stunning 😎👍🏼

nice work amzing color

Been waiting for this video to drop and it didn't disappoint

Mazda actually patented that color in the beginning. Soul red crystal. Mazda said they wanted the color to come to life and reflect the soul of the Master, or the artist/designer/painter. They developed a new and unique method/program/style/algorithim that allowed the robotic machines to move more gracefully and fluid when painting the cars this color. The story is very fascinating.

Getting ready to paint my 91 foxbody from its stock color Red to a Red with some light flake this video nailed it . Thanks 🤙

Loved the video, I have a suggestion on your process. Try it and see what you think. So it’s the prep microfiber roll. I love using the same roll. Leave the package on, and pull out the center roll of cardboard. It’s not very hard to do. Then pull and tear from the center. It keep them cleaner and dust free. And if the roll falls off the car if won’t unroll, and the packaging does it’s job keeping it clean until the last couple. I know it’s a small thing, but I hated watching a few new rolls hit the booth floor by accident. They are much cheaper alternative to the paper shop towels in the box, but the box is convenient. So pulling the cardboard makes it just like the box. Paint on👍

Another great video Brian! Keep the great content coming. Everyday is a school day watching your videos 🚗

Amazing, well explained video as always!! These video's helped me repaint 2 cars and a motorcycle already. There's a learning curve, mostly feel, but once you get it it's pretty satisfying let me tell you.

Great job, thanks for sharing this!

Beautiful job Brian!

Crunching the $$ numbers in my head for a job like this: couple of guys x hourly rate x number of hours (a lot!). Whew!

Best video I have seen. Great job guys.

THANK YOU FOR THESE VIDEOS, REALLY HELPFUL,I AM LEARNING ALOT

I also like Mario’s suit, I love that blue!

Wow! This was a great video! Fantastic job with exceptional results. Now I understand why paint jobs cost as much as they do. You explained everything you did with great detail, and even gave us some good-to-know side knowledge here and there. The amount of information I just learned from watching this video feels equivalent to what I would have learned taking classes at a college/university. This video was definitely an inspiration in more ways than one. Awesome work!

Awesome content.

Good job guys

Thanks you brian

Great video beautiful paint job

Brian - I just watched one of your first videos from years ago when you were making the garage spray booth. A few grey hairs and a lot of experience later... Killin' it!

I did the exact same car the exact same way except mine was a sapphire blue perl & it came out beautiful like glass. 3 coats of color & 5 coats of clear it was so deep & rich thay it looked super wet like kandy. I miss my civic hatchback.

Congratulations, it's extraordinary the result! Good luck on future projects! Regards, David

Awesome paint job, the car looks 👌🏼 👍🏿 👏 😀 😎 with i the new paint .
