Unreal! I'm in a current project with rusted out wheel wells, (and other spots). After the repairs are done, I was wondering about this whole process over old paint, and new repair, blending, AND it's all outside, (blah, blah, blah...)! This made my decision much easier to move forward with, (the indecision of), "should I just spray paint the repair, then blend by cut & polish the rest...or wet sand the whole panel, then primer, paint, clear coat" so yeah, lets do the panel...I felt the whole CLEAR COAT, after the polishing, is really impressive! Thanks!
I had a welder working for me who constantly failed to show up for work due to his drinking habits. We got even with him by taking the lens out of his hood ,painted it black and put it back in again. When he finally shows back up he totally freaked out. “I gotta quit drinking, I can’t see to weld anymore! The entire shop never laughed so hard!
What part of North Carolina do you live
North of Charlotte
I would really like to see you do some body work on a test panel
I think we'll try that in a few weeks!!!
Nice.
Thank you!!!!
Spray that car, brother. It's looking awesome, very nice job! God bless you!
Thank you very much, God Bless you!!!
Great video! Great results with a spray can didn’t know it could be done with professional results!
Thank you, it can be challenging sometimes but it can be done lol!!
Very nicely done Sir you made it look like something anyone can do. Just taking your time and not being afraid to mess up. Plus no annoying music to keep me from hearing you. Thanks I am going g to be welding in floorpans to my 73 Mustang very soon. Appreciate the hole/flange tool demo too.
Thank you, I try to make it as easy as I can. Good luck on the mustang, that will be a cool ride. Make sure to subscribe, im going to be doing quater pannel patches on my surburban, not sure if you'd like to see any of that information!!!
I have had plans to use this Dark Steel on my 88 GMC Stepside. Slowly getting bodywork and prep work done.
Awesome I love that color. I thought about putting some of that 2k clear over it so it will last longer!!!
Too good alright 👍 ya know it’s good when ya can she the whole inside of ya work shop …
Hahaha thank you, I couldn't believe how clear the pannel looked!!!
@@ACDesignsGarage blew me away too
Shit it looks like ya gonna get fit using that TURBO CAN ! 😂😂but man it’s a good product by the looks of it I got myself some of the 5n1 nozzle cans to paint my bike,especially now that I have found out it is fuel n oil resistant so that’s a bonus, it just doesn’t say so on the can
Awesome what kinda bike do you have, I use to have a softtail custom harley. I will say if you want to make it shine like crazy shoot that 2k clear over it then, man ole man is it shiny. You gave me an idea I may custom paint a sportster tank I have with just spray paint!!
@@ACDesignsGarage hey cool, I got a 2009 Fat Bob I’m second owner but first owner in New Zealand 🇳🇿 so yeah I’m gonna paint it Antique White from rust oleum with the 5in1 nozzle Will be good to see you do the sporty tank
I've seen success with 1 gallon rustoleum paint jobs I've been wanting to add a bit of pop could you make a video of black paint with gold flake ? Curious how you prep it Flake on paint or clear coat?
I may have to experiment with that , but off the top of my head I'll give give you 2 different ways you could try it.#1 shoot your rustoleum gloss black let it tac, then get some of the gold metallic hold it away from the pannel around 2 ft and just mist it around till you get the look you want let it tac then shoot it with 2k spraypaint clear then cut and buff. # 2 if your using a spray gun You can put down your base color then mix in some flake in the clear coat shoot that then shoot a coat of clear with no flake over that. Another idea is maybe you can put some flake in the black, we'll just have to experiment!!!
I would like to see it outside with all the elements?
I love a challenge
@@ACDesignsGarage I also love a challenged myself it makes it more fun
Turbo cans really suck...I've tried them once..never again...I'll stick to a spray gun.
Ill 100% agree a spray gun is way better a d easier, I was trying to help the guys that dont have all the equipment!!!
You're either close to RDU,GSO or CLT.
Thanks for demostrating, especially fixing the burn threw holes which usually I do.
Okay that looks good
Hey
Thank you, Thank you! I have a flat panel to replace on my old Pullman Camper shell that's on my '64 Chevy C10. Brilliant to use tape! Now to dial in my welding skills as I haven't welded since high school and just bought a cheap HF Titanium flux core welder. Great video, I learned from this video more than the litteraly hundreds on welding elsewhere.
Yeah that paint booth would be pretty cool to have… I’d definitely like to have one… my garage has so much crap in it… I’d be out of the painting mood by the time I got the garage cleaned out and swept out… lol.., thanks for video buddy…
I’m would. Paint a car
Have you tried the turbo can paint
As other's suggested please spray a 2K clear over that grey metallic. I know the 2K clear in the can is very expensive so just use a 1K clear. Thanks!
Man, you’re good. Smooth fast.
It's these kinds of tips that make the difference. I've seen people try to spray metallic over a dissimilar color and couldn't figure out why it took so many cans and still didn't cover. Then, they blame the cans. Lol.
Not bad, metallic is very difficult to spray out of a can because you can see flake consistency as you lay it down
Lot of times it can spit the flake
Just used dark cherry metallic on my 88 ranger looks good but yes needs a 2k clear to pop
Definitely do the whole car spray paint!
Could you let it dry for a day or 2 and wet sand it with 800 grit then 2k clear it?
Good work. I like it.
Outside
Yes sir! I’m always up for more body work videos. Thanks!
Best fuqin Chanel on KZread. Here for the blow up. The rust oleum and 2k vid was money. Appreciate u taking tine to video. Edit and upload. Most people don’t know the amount of work and time it takes to make a video. So Ty. Have great weekend. -Jerry
Great video, just what I was looking for 👍👍
Thank you sir 🙏
act like ya rambo cracks me up everytime!
That is an absolutely flawless restoration! Stunning work!
It turned out as good as the paint on a new car with less orange peel but your haze is from cutting too dry, gotta stop when it turns to gum or it just blends in but i wouldn't be afraid to use that turbo on my old truck but id definitely clear it just for that extra protection
I like the whip and pause you show. I have always been into shielding gas.. am TICKLED at how good Stainless Flux core works in my millermatic 140 Autoset on LOW power, very low speed, even odder its on 120v 15 amp circuit off my back deck, a 50 foot heavy duty extension cable. I was using shielded mig for mild steel but needed to change it up for the Stainless project. It really did the job on my stainless exhaust system. The cost of a 2 ft tank of shielding gas was 140 at the local welding shop.. so, I found E308LFC-O .035-Diameter Stainless Flux Core SONNLER, packaged well in a vacuum pack (ideal) and buzzed straight off the line in DCEN mode. I do a ellipsis shape real fast on the tips, but a quick wiggle/pause in the middle.. looks very much like your welds, looks great! thanks for the good walk through, and focus to safety. Anti Spator... zigzag charlie brown.. hah
I’m about to do my first weld today with my dad this really helps me understand the concept behind different techniques. Wish me luck!
Love this content!! Thank you so much for showing us the hard slow work, instead of skipping to the finished product! Here to learn! Keep it up! SUPER underrated channel!
I really struggled with Rust-Oleum Copper Metallic Finish. Tiger stripes no matter how close I got the overlap. I tried doing the second coat 90 degrees to the first coat. Really frustrating.
I just filmed a new video that drops tonight at 7pm est. Spraying metallics with spray paint. I put ton of work into it with a bunch of tips if you want to check it out!!!
Awesome score, I love it. Thanks for the shout out brother. I can hook you up! -Spanky
Awesome thanks brother!!!!
Poor eyesight so glasses, speedglass with inner and outer protection plastic lenses. Total of 8 surfaces that need to be clean to start with. Some good lighting on the area that you are welding will help too. Adjust the "darkness" on your speedglass.
i got a tee joint flux welding test today which one would you recommend to use? i was thinking maybe zig zag or whip and pause. Thank you sir!
I love that . I saw a fella online that does these on old gas cans and road signs . They are pretty cool
I need someone to paint my 1980 ford truck. I live in NC statesville hit me up if you would be interested
Awesome
Hey man I saw in your video that you lived in NC . I live in statesville . And I need someone to paint my 1980 ford. F100. Would you be interested?
Those hole saws are the shit . I used to have a green Lee set and they are way better than the saw blade looking hole saws
