Gorgeous finish, Gunny. Always love to see that Bellaria in action, too. Just got one and broke it in on 42 wheels with a silver metallic single stage. Sprayed like a dream. Oh and my 5 year old daughter loves your videos, hopes you do more music ones in the future. Keep up the good work man 🤙

Hi Gunny, love your videos and the unbiased, no BS honest reviews. I have a question and I wasn't really sure where to post it and being that this is the latest video of yours, I thought here might get seen. I've bought the Iwata Bellaria W400 with the 1.3mm tip with the intent of using it to paint colour and clear on some panels. I've also bought some Concept 2K High Build primer to use first but my question is, will I get away with using the 1.3mm tip that comes with the Bellaria gun with this primer or should I really be using a big tip/gun? Thanks again for all your content, without a doubt the most comprehensive automotive spray painting channel on YT. 👍

[@TheGunmanChannel]

There's nothing stopping you from spraying 2k primer through it but it's really not ideal unless you add some extra thinners, but in doing that you lose build which you really don't want to do. I'd recommend getting a cheap 1.8-2.0mm primer gun, FLG5 or AZ3 are 2 good affordable options.

[@low_altitude]

Gunman I have 2 questions for you: why aren't single stage paints used? And why do you often say that your rust repairs will only last a couple of years or so? I mean a 10 year old car will likely have no rust at all. Thanks for all the teachings.

Love watching your work. I am getting ready to fix a scratch on the lower front bumper on my Wife's Mercedes, of course I inflicted the scratch, I am scared shitless. Luckily its in an area I don't think is too noticeable, but I will have to sand , maybe a little glazing putty to fill the scratch , prime, paint match and clear coat. The car is Iridium Silver. Any tips Gunny before I screw anything up?

[@jaykrom852]

Just feather edge out the scratch with 180 or 240 sandpaper and prime it with Transtar 2 in 1 grey spray can primer ( or some equivalent). Sand that with 600 and then rewatch Gunny above and just paint that shit!

[@harryadsett1349]

New fan here, really enjoying your videos and getting me pumped to start practicing so I can respray my XE Falcon! Just wanted to know what the black powder is that you smear onto the primer before sanding with the orbital. Thanks!

[@TheGunmanChannel]

It's called guide coat, type in "3M dry guide coat" to google, obviously it helps you see what's been sanded and what hasn't.

[@loganwolfe7926]

Good shit man.

[@jessewilkie4944]

awesome! I am a first year refinishing apprentice and we also use standox products. I notice in your second coat of clear however you didn’t move further back with the gun do you find you have a better finish doing that or is there another reason for it. Asking for advice not being a dick. Cheers

Hi Gun Man. How much to get the whole car painted in WA? (est)

[@matthewpetruescu]

Hi. Awesome video. I wanted to check what gun do you think is the best. Im trying to decide which paint gun to get either Tekna pro lite or an iwata ws400? Any thoughts or suggestions on other guns and which you like best. Also how far do you usually turn your fluid level down to. Thanks.

[@TheGunmanChannel]

I usually just have the fluid right open, but if you're inexperienced I'd recommend starting at around 3 turns out and tweak from there to what feels right. Honestly I think the pro lite would be the better gun if you are learning, for starters they're cheaper and I find them the easiest to just pick up and spray. Get the TE10 or TE20 air cap with 1.3 tip and that'll handle anything except thick high build primer.

[@jimtysonboatworks117]

When repainting a car with chipping cleardo you have to sand away all the old clear coat or can you feather it in and then prime and so on

[@진주산쟁이]

Good 건맨.

[@robertobahena1248]

Is the transparent basecoat the same as the standox colorless??

[@descendinggod9740]

When you want to add many layers of clear coat, do you wait until its cool down and sand it down, and then apply more? I saw some videos of people doing that. How does it work, it depends on what clear your using?

[@TheGunmanChannel]

Yes, I think that's the best way to do it. I have a video on the topic, kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJq3aq1jr9d9gLc

[@LTVoyager]

What was the black stuff you wiped on before sanding the primer? Looked like shoe polish almost.

[@TheGunmanChannel]

It's just powdered charcoal, it obviously just helps you see what you've sanded. It's called guide coat.

hello .. what is the transparent basecoat?

[@gordonclark7632]

Maybe not relevant but I have a question about clear coat scratches. I have been told some Asian brands (not nominating any) have very think clear coats applied. I always hand wash my Hyundai I30 (12 months old) and after washing and then drying with a quality chamois I see that there are swirl marks within the clear. Do you have any advice on (a) how to avoid the scratches and (b) how would you recommend getting rid of them. Many thanks.

[@TheGunmanChannel]

I really can't say how they got there but I'd go have a look at this vid, basically the orbital polisher should remove the swirl marks, and a good quality polish and wax should help protect the paint too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYPJe4p8e79gpdE

That's the 3M PPS2 system, the original system is pretty similar but been around for quite some time now. It's a disposable pot system that makes cleanup quicker and easier, you can also operate the gun upside down under suction pressure. They're pretty handy.

I have a badly deteriorating hood on a bugeye WRX, a lot of work has gone into the car and I really want fix up the hood with a respray, maybe do the full car after I have learned the basics. I'm pretty broke, I can't afford a pro job. But I can borrow a compressor, gun and sander. I can afford the paints and and other bits. Due to the lock-down in my sate, I can't go anywhere to ask for recommendations and tips and no one is answering my emails. I have all the time in the world and the will to do this, but I'm stuck at this point. I don't know which paint products to order, what primer to use, if I even need to prime... The entire thing gets more complicated the more I look into it. Could someone please give me a hand? Just give me a basic gist of what I will need to order to get the ball rolling. I can take pictures and upload them if someone is willing to have a look, if that would help in determining what I actually need to do. Basically, the clear is peeling off the middle of the hood, with a few rock chips. So I'm thinking sand the panel, putty the chips, then prime? but which primer, which putter.... I'm just really confused right now, sitting here super bored and wanting to get started but I can't. If someone could help me out I'd really appreciate it

[@jaykrom852]

Since it's been a month, I'll put my 2 cents in here.... Sand all the old clear off- and maybe all the way to the edges of the panel so that the feather edged clear doesn't show in your top coats. Feather out the chips, too- no putty that way. I work slow with 180 or 240 grit , trying not to go through the factory primer. The color coat is so thin you won't save it. Then prime it with just a quality spray can type like Transtar 2 in 1 (use this on your bumper also, as if your hood is that bad, your bumper is toast too!) The 2 in 1 designation means you can use it on steel and fexible parts. You could use a 2K primer which is ideal, but more stuff is needed...Just sand to 600 and rewatch a bunch of Gunny's videos- he has a great one on fixing his own car in his garage. Good luck.
