Who would ever think that watching paint dry is entertaining. Robby you make it so ❤

[@oldboater]

I have no idea why I like watching this channel, Watching painting, grinding, sanding, but I love it.

[@hausmaster9801]

I think it helps that the crew are so charismatic, knowledgeable, and mesh so well together

[@RobertSmith-tq6mf]

Have you watched the boring channel?

[@kevincarpenter5458]

Because the "Boss" is the best!

[@knockharder3554]

I am here for the sponsor ads

[@donaldgoodrich2493]

Ha! Me too! I think it’s the editing. Makes me laugh.

[@tufalike1796]

that editing with the same person showing 3 times at the same time in the paint booth is AWESOME! Thanks all of you for the videos, hugs from Belgium.

[@340Demon]

3 Robbys in the booth? Now it all makes sense how you get so much done!

[@LeonSteelpaw]

Nonononono, that's just fancy editing. There are NOT 3 of them that only work in the paint booth... not at all... don't look in the corner behind the booth... (sorry I couldn't resist)

[@error404fnf]

All by himself 🎵🎶

[@johndoran3274]

Never apologize for showing people the reality of how you keep the lights on. The world needs more of that. Thanks for sharing!

[@artphotoscamp5788]

As an old spray painter. Watching these processes are cathartic . And the crew makes them entertaining!

[@freeidaho-videos]

I liked the subtle editing of multiple painters.

[@pvanhorn12]

Your technique and professionalism in paint is fascinating

[@RobbyLayton]

Thank you for watching!

[@gregsullivan8956]

​@@RobbyLayton Morning

[@gregorygene9003]

Robby paints the world go round. Two Robbys working at the same time is better than one. Now I want to see two Hillbillys and two Coltons horseplaying.

[@denniskemnitz3771]

Such a natural 😊

[@coltonlowry1445]

My name is Colton. I'm happy to have someone with the same name!! Been watching for years now

[@professornuke7562]

@@coltonlowry1445 If you go through Robby's Cloning Booth, you can have as many as you want! Careful though... some of them may be The Evil Twin!

[@LCBChef18]

I just want to point out that this is the first video I’ve seen out of maybe 30 that Hillbilly is wearing a respirator. Bravo sir, I’m proud of you guys!

[@radioguybigd]

I've been watching your videos for about a year or 2 and I've learned a lot about collision repair and paint from you. I looked at my friend's smashed car door and thought about how Robby Layton would repair it.

[@Dave-gf3kd]

More questions! How or why is your booth so clean with no overspray on the walls? What does “blow dry” do to the process? The way you did the video with “two of you painting” at the same time was really cool!.. Love the cat!

[@morecowbell20]

I am now convinced that although I may attempt body work I will ALWAYS seek out someone with the knowledge and facilities to do the painting. Thank you for saving me from heartache. And thank you for all your awesome videos!!

[@stevebowser7248]

Dont sell yourself short on paint and bodywork. You are a ninja and your narrative is great. Very cool content.

[@salvatorebaleno9807]

I really prefer the videos where he shows off his actual skills. Any idiot can hack things together.

[@dantodhunter8373]

Multiple Robbies! That's how everything gets done.

[@johncarroll5370]

Good to see Bob and Robert helping out Robby in the paint booth

[@rustyscrews3946]

Thanks for taking us along. These videos that show what you do in a "normal" workday are the best.

[@JRs-Garage]

Wow Robby , the way you spray it’s very fluid, I’ve watched many painters over time and only the best ones paint like you do ! Great work! Anyone who you mentor in your trade should count themselves very fortunate to be taught by you!

[@dont7913]

Wow, powerful comment, and I totally agree.

[@k_the_v]

Roll cage for whiskers! Please! I'm going to keep posting this on every video... you guys just have to put one in before people get hurt when whiskers slides off a snowy hill!

[@robertr4193]

So much more work goes in to doing a paint job on things than most people think and it's a lot more difficult to do specially when having to match existing original paint. You do a real good job with it Robby. Your guys sanding Whiskers had a heck of a mess to deal with. Good job guys.

[@richardfletcher3850]

looking forward to the restoration of Whiskers and Fred.... love to see old stuff brought back to life

[@dgmills5351]

Robbie and CREW, your dedication is unsurpassed by any other shop! That red looks amazing. Have you ever painted a Gold or Silver base and then covered with a Translucent Red Pearl?

[@xx1590]

While Robbi is one of the best painters in world, I like watching Hillbilly's pace and easy explanations.

[@f4bkyn388]

Robby: I’m not going to bore you with all the sanding, grinding, painting... Me: oh, man, that’s the best part. Please include it.

[@brucea822]

Whiskers needs Corvette style Side pipes

[@AFloridaSon]

I see some more people subbed and got you over 400k. Congrats. Now we just need 600k more, so I can get my '69 Charger. 😅

[@morningbeachsunshine7496]

These are such fantastic entertainment - thank you for including all of us in the You-niverse Tube...

[@garrygraham7901]

Whiskers would look great with a big Robby Layton World logo on the roof. It would make for cool drone shots out on the tracks when you are doing recoveries.

[@hackjealousy]

It’s 82 today in Puerto Rico. What is this “snow” thing you talk of?

[@andrewsreviews4748]

I didn’t realize how short you guys were until Colton whipped out that 3ft ladder

[@saintracheljarodm.holy-kay2560]

Teamwork making the dream work. Have a good week and count your blessings amen.

[@Flyby-1000]

For Hillbilly's weather inquiry, we here in Florida have been having a much cooler fall & winter thus far... Loving it... When 70 is your high in Florida, life is good!!! Summer was cooler too, Only had one hurricane come a shore last season. Hoping it carries on into this season...

[@hermione6830]

Here in missouri we've had a couple of really cold days. Just had flurries, enough to stick to the grass, last night. Jan 5th is late for us, makes me a little worried what the rest of winter will throw at us.

[@randymiller7521]

The paintwork is gorgeous. Hopefully we will see whiskers body painted with some awesome whiskers graphics.

[@davebaker489]

I was watching the guys on the roof of the S. K. and wondered if dry ice wouldn't do a better job on the rubberized and painted roof . It also does a good job when crushed and run through a sand blaster.

[@curtiswada2919]

Robby is a chemist, artist and energizer bunny all rolled together! Sure have a good eye for painting and attention to detail!

[@petebryant]

That layer of Clear is always like a magic wand

[@jessy81520]

Love how you cloned yourself in the paint booth 😂

[@dawnmcbride6739]

Thank you for all the great videos. You guys truly ROCK!!

[@ghosted718]

Hillbilly - no snow in NYC . we are praying for that $$$$$$$$$$ from the sky. Much love to Robby and the crew

[@rickbottoms7838]

I guess the glamour fades by about 1:30 am! That red sure is purdy! 👍

[@kathysantos2594]

I am in awe when your in the paint booth. How you communicate what and why want you’re doing. You have such a great team and enjoy all your videos! ❤

[@ronhormann5676]

I liked the shots from the paint booth with the multiple Robbie’s. Great job of editing!

[@CorvetteBill364]

Robby please show that car in its final delivery ready .I would love to see it please, I know you are great at what you do. Let us see it !!!

[@jerichogrindley2479]

I’m literally addicted to all the You tube channels I wake up and have my smoke and coffee every day they post around 5 to 7 am I found that this is the algorithm post your videos between 4am and 8am northern western time pacific time And bam

[@stephencase5160]

I originally started watching for the painting and repair work. In my opinion, it's more interesting than a lot of the other stuff you started doing.

[@jeremyclark2181]

We still have nothing more than a light dusting here in SE Indiana. And for the most part it has been relatively warm. I also wanted to say that I love this channel and love being a part of Robby Layton Nation.

[@randyhome1544]

Spokane WA and North Idaho have low amounts of snow. Most of the North States are using Man made snow at ski resorts.

[@javman03]

2 Robby's?!? He's got a twin! (Nice editing!) 😁

[@CraigClarkson]

Great editing. Love the multi-Robby time lapses.

[@chipprice1174]

I continue to be amazed at your talent Robby. Your crew also, great support team!

[@nssthan]

I think you should EMBRACE “hurry up” and put it on some merch!! You definitely hurry up and spend all the time necessary. :). Love the channel!!!!!

[@chasepuzon6893]

I am a automotive mechanical technician at a Black Tire repair service center in Wilmington North Carolina. I understand everything you said and that was the way we need to turn and burn. Sometimes it works out good sometimes I’m there for 45 hours a week and turn out 80 if I’m not doing at least 100%must not have a skill and have been doing this for over 39 years when you’ve been doing it this long you better be almost 200%

[@johnhopkins6658]

Work fascinates me, I could watch it for hours. Thank you Robby and crew.

[@sandkworkshop]

“See if I ruined it” you sir may not be perfect cause no one but my wife is. But you know what you are doing. I was just taking off windshield wipers yesterday. Wish I had that tool.

[@Strider1954]

Had a friend who both mixed paint and drinks at the bar, we called him a Mixologist. He was damn good with both of his talents.

[@dave6501]

Yes Hillbilly it is not normal that at this time of year we haven't got enough snow... oh well

[@kenjohnson5498]

How in the world did you work in such tight quarters without bumping into yourself? That's talent lol

[@Cujo71321]

Congratulations on your editing team effort, Robby. The "3 Robby's in the booth" was a surprise and a great bit of editing. Well done! You guys are movin' on up!

[@gregb76]

Robby what's up I know you aren't the only painter are you just taking one for the team. Great job on all the painting of course when you are the best what else do you all expect. The company made some big bucks I am sure the haters will be complaining.

[@jasonhilliker492]

Keep up the good work. I enjoyed the "day in the life" Video. It was a good way to mix up the videos a bit. It keeps things interesting.

[@kimberlyrivard6945]

Great job all of you. Very interesting the processes that you go through. Thank you and God bless you.

[@brj_han]

Yeah, no snow here, yet. (Northern Illinois.) Should have had a least one or two storms by now. As a matter of fact, it was 50+ degrees on Christmas! Not gonna complain. The lack of snow makes my back soooooooo happy! 😁

[@mikesheahan6906]

Central Wisconsin, No Snow, and No Cold! The lakes usually have 8 inches of ice by now, but they are still just water.

[@edwinschlee8374]

That's a lot of painting in one day. love that color of Red! A lot of hard work on the roof of Whiskers too!

[@mikeschellenberg2021]

I wish I could clone myself! It took a minute to realize it was awesome editing. Thank you for another great video, you guys are the BEST!!

[@iheart_life7]

loving the new painting edits :) levelling up the production value ..... lets gooo!

[@Nick80832]

Hello Robby and folks... My 7 half month old daughter loves watching your show...❤ And I am deaf... Please be sure to have closed caption (subtitles) available please thank you :)

[@highcountrystories]

Omygosh 3 Robbie's!! Hahaha good job!! Somebody had fun stacking film!!

[@GregLanz]

Loved the twin Robby's section. Watching this has inspired me to finally re-paint the gas tank on the motorbike(well not on the motorbike any more)

[@johnreviczky6690]

Yeah I live in Canada and our weather has been very, very warm. We're usually at −60° celsi. Don't know what that would be in. But yeah, it's been plus 3°C. To minus ten degrees celsius the weather is extremely weird. But I'm quite enjoying this warm weather. I hope it keeps it up. I can handle no snow lots of laughs.

[@martyniner8893]

Love seeing Bombi the shop cat!

[@Kickinpony66]

I had to LOL when Hillbilly got after COlton for twisting the exhaust the wrong way! 😁😁

[@88SherryLynn]

Gotta know about that air blower you're using in the paint booth. We need that for our paint shop

[@chriswilson1554]

I have watched your channel from day 1 and have enjoyed your content enormously. Along with Matt, Paul and Rori channel. You guys are great!!! My best friend does paint and body as well and I want to buy him a paint prep static gun. Where did you purchase yours?

[@mel-il4yu]

Multiple Robbies is the best!

[@guslefort7042]

Hey guys….Love the channel but would love an update on all your unfinished projects…..Like the Laymo, Broncstar, rock crawler and such…..Please finish one of your projects for us…

[@1994maroz28]

Don't be that guy

[@AFloridaSon]

I agree. I enjoy watching whatever they're doing, but I really enjoy seeing a project come together. Even when they showed more of the business side, and finished costumers vehicles was better than leaving things half done.

[@edsmith2033]

Hey Robbie just a quick note when you make your videos try to add in the donations people donate don't have to make the whole video of them just a quaint shout out great respect for your Channel👍

[@ruger8412]

Business in the front party in the back!! 😉 Hard work always pays to play

[@jaykanngiesser3454]

Im near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and we still have no snow yet either. Our county has fire bans on. In January!

[@neilfromclearwaterfl81]

Ok. That's a Surface Conditioning Tool which along with the Drums are available at your local Harbor Freight. Don't ask for Cups as that will confuse them and you'll get the "We ain't got none" answer. BTW - Generally you push them like a power planer. Best!

[@terryroths4254]

First video I watch is ...Robby Layton! The rest can wait. 1st place y'all!

One of your best videos ever!

Glad to see you have to robbies to double down on your work load.. its probably really nice to have 2 of ya thinkin the same thing and getting things done 😆

[@seanknight9898]

For future reference, you’re bound to have a Milwaukee oscillating tool with a scraper attachment. Would’ve ripped that stuff off with no damage to the sheet metal at all.

[@amazeddude1780]

Great you're working with your twin brother! Exactly the same techniques too.

[@Rocwlkr]

We had a little around Thanksgiving, but no more after that. I live in Twin Falls, Idaho. we might get some late tonight and maybe tomorrow, but it's a small change.

[@chris8612]

Definitely some Napoleon Dynamite music vibes with the Robby paint booth triplets.

[@toddplenda5569]

Hey Tyler, not only do we have no snow but it’s been raining every other day. The ground is like a big wet sponge. Michigan for ya

[@Lonnwriting]

Yes Hillbilly, Eugene Oregon no snow here or at the Cascade mountain road passes. Your blue Toyota truck looks great. I'm happy Robby set that surprise up for you.

[@CriminalStorm62]

I love that red. Would love to look at all the paint codes in that area of reds.

[@TheOldaz1]

Your paint is amazingly good. What a PITA stripping that roof.

[@BigMikeAudits]

I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and we don't have snow at all on the ground yet, and we definitely should have by now. At least a couple of feet anyway by now.

[@major__kong]

I was helping bring a Russian AN-2 aircraft back to life. Think very big biplane. Actually, I think it was Polish-built under license. It was used for agricultural spraying. So it had non-skid on the top of the fuselage so people could get a hose into the hopper. At some point, someone decided to put several layers of household latex paint over everything. So imagine aircraft primer, aircraft paint, non-skid, years of ag chemicals, and latex all sandwiched together. I was using buckets of chemical stripper on that thing and literally shoveling the goo off. When I finally got it down to bare skin, there was about 4ft of rivet line where the rivets had disintegrated due to ag chemical corrosion. The only thing holding the skin on was all that muck. By some miracle, even though this rivet line was right on top of the frames where the wing spar lugs attached, there was no damage to the frames from the corrosion. Just had to rerivet that line.

[@jayofox1]

No snow in Montreal, Canada. Usually we should have at least 2 - 3 feet by now.

[@user-bt5xd4lo5n]

I take a shot every time Robby says Blow Tack and Static

[@frankhage1734]

I take a shot every time he says; "hurry". I'm now a serious alcoholic thanks to Robby. I think he means to say; move quickly or expedite.

[@wayneanthony5754]

Well I used to have up to 50 to 60 inches of snow each year in Owego, New York. But for the last twelve years we haven't seen any snow at all. Hi from Gulf Breeze, Florida.

[@michaelmcclure8673]

Awe I wanted more Bombi time with Hillbilly 😮.

[@blackjack8217]

Kansas normally has several 6 inch snows by January. We have had a 1 single inch once and it melted the next day.
