[@michaellinner7772]

You've got to be prepared for the huge recoil of the spray cans. So always stand like you're about to be attacked.

[@flagmichael]

Bend your elbow so it does not take the full impact of the recoil. Hearing protection is advised. Remember - it is either the work piece or you that is going to get sprayed, so screw your courage to the sticking place (MacBeth - really!) and seize it by the throat!

I was raised in the Canadian rust belt (Nova Scotia, Canada) and it was common for young people to buy an old car and try to fix it up. My father and I ran an autobody repair shop. I used to tell my friends to prime AND paint their repairs. It was a common misconception that primer would provide a measure of protection. I have also seen people paint directly over new parts thinking that sealer and primer are the same and they were confused when the paint started to peel. Thank you for the video!

can you please make a video extension of this video showing me/us how to use rattle can to paint a super large surface like a car hood? please!!!! i have 3 cars with sunfaded hoods that desperatly need attention. ive spray painted for year and can killit on smaller panel but the larger areas like a hood i feel like the paint dries before im able to get a nice solid even coat. please please please!! thank you brotha!!

[@brucekain6995]

Hah, that's the downside to using rattle cans bud, for big areas you need plenty of CFM. General Patton said " Do what you can with what you got where you are ", so, my advice is get your cans ready, warm them first in a bucket of warm water, wait for a cool night in the garage and go for it, take the hood off so you can get all round it and have it tilted towards you, maybe get a friend who knows what he's doing to spray the hood at the same time ?

[@mrt9031]

Here's a no myth one for you.. Don't use 2k paint without an air fed mask and proper suit..

[@bobbyrayofthefamilysmith24]

Yeh I seen people using it with paper dust mask 😂

[@andicog]

You can now buy a cartridge mask that will cover you to use 2k for a certain length of time. I'd still use air fed if your painting on a regular basis and Wear a full air fed visor as the pearl and metallic particals in metallic's can be bad for your eyes. I watch lots of American car programs and half the painters don't even wear a suit let alone a hood and visor.

[@chosenideahandle]

Very good info. Regarding the comments on your defensive stance, I believe it's important to be ready for attack in life at any given moment. I'll add that if you haven't got experience with a particular clear over a certain paint, you might want to test it somewhere. This is especially true with clear from an aerosol can, as they are more reliant on solvents that can lift your base-coat (not as big an issue with 2k). The likely-hood of an issue using a two part clear from a gun is almost zero, because they use a hardener to cure (like epoxy uses a catalyst in a second part) and maybe only some thinner to get through the gun. If you have to use a clear from an aerosol can you actually might be better off in some cases going against the advice of this video and letting the base-coat cure, then wet sanding for a mechanical bond. I say this because it's less likely you'll have a bad reaction to the solvent if the base is already cured. If you want to avoid sanding and you're spraying a clear from an aerosol can you're unfamiliar with, follow the video's advice but do a test for compatibility. I was an airbrush artist in another life doing primarily motorcycles and helmets. The clear we used could be sprayed over almost anything without issue, and was done almost exclusively over a cured matte airbrushed finish (2 part clear out of a gun). Finishing was done by hand with a compound (small parts, and lots of curves).

[@uppitywhiteman6797]

[@jamesdrichardson3447]

All of this was great advice, and I've been painting cars for as long as I can remember, even in the days before 2K where Cellulose was used without Clear Coat and you needed to polish to get your shiny finish.. Another important tip he could have covered was using different brands of aerosol cans. Different brands have a differing coverage rate due to the pressure of the propellant inside the can. Some cans spray quite strongly while some spray less so and some even spray quite weak,....this will effect your speed of travel across the panel and your distance from it which he did cover. You will only gain that from seeing how the paint covers the panel and from practice and experience. Good work, keep up that stance and keep clicking. 👏👍✌

[@rickrose2235]

[@charalamboskioulos3932]

The badges are glued on. Use a heat gun to first soften the adhesive. Use a thin plastic such as a putty knife to wedge off. Since you'll be painting anyways, just sand the remaining adhesive off with the rest of the paint. Key: Be patient.

His style - his way of spreading information and experience is his own AND if he has made mistakes critique them not his mannerism - IF you can do better - then put your own talents on display {IF indeed you have any?} I have no great talent myself - so I have learned from watch this video, which is more than I can say I have learned from the negativity of those in their mummy's cellar But then again I will assume that the old saying of putting their collective brains into gear before you open their mouths does not apply the greater unwashed, who collectively seem to be unaware that every time they point a finger - they have three pointing back at them.

[@twoshedsjackson6478]

I know this vid is old but it's the MOST helpful spray-painting video I've come across, thanks for posting.

[@911axe]

Have to disagree with regards to plastic paints. Sure the plastic primer will stick and the regular paint to it but the deal with plastic paint is there is a elastomer contained within which allows for some flexing without cracking. Not saying your method wont work fine for someone who's paint jobs never experience flexing but if your a person who is using a painted item in the rough and tumble way, and in poor environmental conditions, the paint will fail. For example, plastic car bumpers take a beating in my location during winters. There will be drifted snow banks across highways and bumpers take the brunt of it when driving those conditions. With the flexing and cold, if you dont have proper plastic paint, you will get cracking and eventually flaking. I've hit snow deposits on the highway which left my windshield covered as well.

[@customspraymods]

911axe walk into a body shop and ask them if they use special paint on plastics. See what they say.

[@911axe]

@@customspraymods your probably right there on that one. My info did come from a shop though, as they were trying to charge me for the more costly "plastic" paint. I always thought they added a elastomer to their paint when it comes to a flexing plastic object. Maybe I'm wrong, been wrong lots of times before and sure I will be again.

Can you clear coat over bed liner. I painted my Jeep in rustolium spray can bed liner and just like to do a satin finish on it

[@YeetxBoi]

Probably if you were to try testing it on a piece of cardboard you could try this: spray your costs of bed liner like usual, after last coat of it as soon as it's tacky spray your finish color costs and then spray your clear coat(probably gonna want a matte clear since bedliner). I'm fairly sure that would work but like I said test on a throw away item first!

[@bartonbrown4172]

I learned - and it works - not to mix aerosol rattle-can paint with a twist-of-the-wrist rapid shaking - it can create air bubbles. The best way to mix aerosol can paint with the solvent in the can is to hold the top of the can and swirl it around so you can hear and feel the mixer ball inside the can swirling around, rather than shaking the can every which way but loose. A fast but gentle swirl almost always produces an air-bubble free spray. Also, it’s a good idea to have a large sheet of cardboard, as shown here, to make your first spray to check for splatter, almost always because of a clogged nozzle. You can usually clean the nozzle with a fine pin and some solvent that’s compatible with the solvent in the aerosol can. It’s also a good idea to keep track of what nozzles fit what cans, and as you empty the aerosol can, remove the nozzles and keep separated in glass jars with lids, labeled with what can(s) the nozzles fit, with just enough compatible solvent in the jars to more than cover the nozzles. This keeps the nozzles from clogging up.

[@vyseerx]

Humility as a trait is an attempt to have good interpersonal relationships. This trait is glorified a little more than it deserves. Once competency is not necessarily dependent upon someone’s humility or lack of it. But people being people, are emotional. Most are insecure- and would like to deal with some one who lowers himself in other’s eyes rather than some one who is little high strung. This painter is very talented apart from highly experienced. Great video. Thanks for the teaching !

The calipers don't get all that hot - they can't stand the sort of temperatures the pads and rotor experience. The seals won't put up with much above a couple hundred degrees and standard DOT 4 brake fluid boils at 230C (446F). Enamel is fine.

You answered quite a few of my queries that i'd had a mixed collection of info regarding previously.. in a way that was clear, and explained why. It drives me nuts when people just say do this because this is what works, without explaining how they came to that conclusion, or explaining why their experience may trump alternate approaches. Excellent to the point video. No time wasting happening here!. Well done and very helpful. Thank You.

Great helpful video as usual Dave. Keep 'em coming!

Ian Wilde thanks man. This was a spur of the moment one but seems to be doing well.

[@kirbywaite1586]

The reason you sand before the clear coat is to remove any " nibs" that may have occurred. Also, a dulled finish provides additional "tooth" for the last coat which results in a superior result.

[@beamerstearoom5657]

Would you read my question about the different layers of design and my thought process and share your opinion also?

[@AmericanBulldogRocky]

I sand to promote adhesion, unless the under coat was just sprayed.

[@flagmichael]

Consider the logic: sanding produces a smoother - less bumpy - surface, and probably (no expert here!) less adhesion. Would you expect better adhesion to glass or wood?

[@karltonrod3855]

Excellent, quick to the point, and every point I can support. Well almost, because I found painting metallic is more difficult to get an even result when your parts have no simple surface; apart from the color matching issue.

Don't listen to the snarky _commenteros_ below! I really _like_ the finger snap and accompanying summon-a-servant sound. When it comes to YT technical presentations, keeping things moving along at speed is always to be encouraged. Life's too short for overly long-winded explanations. I learned a lot here, which I'll need as soon as the weather turns warmer. Please keep up the good work, and if you want to manstand, you just feel free...

I'm a computer technician and have been for over 30 years. I can fix any rig you put in front of me blindfolded, but I am total newb when it comes to cars and especially painting. I have a 2005 Kia Sportage with paint code 3P(Volcanic Red). Most of the prep has been done including the bondo and sanding/primer by the previous owner but he didn't finish the job. The paint is hard to find around here. I was considering just covering it with a close match and a clear coat before winter comes. Do I really need to get the exact color? I mean it doesn't look great as it is even a close match would be better. I know you have a lot of subscribers but if I sent a pic of the area of the car would you be able to give me an idea of the steps I should take from that point? I am so lost when it comes to vehicles. D'oh!

Why does he have such a wide stance

[@ernestocazares51]

Stance life

[@willjdeanie]

Dephy ...... It's a technique to make it more difficult to push him over when he's just pointed and clicked at someone.

[@willjdeanie]

Nah , only joking , it's not that. I think it's something to do with the different gravity they have down there in Australia.

[@lolololo-em9rh]

@@ernestocazares51 nice one

[@lildoggy4u]

He's tall so he stands that way so you see the entire scene, legs and all. I have the same problem. Plus, you're watching him. Change the channel if it bothers you.

[@donnafitzpatrick9434]

Thank you! This was very informative... and useful!

[@wowantonlavey]

you sand primer not base between coats. you can fill scratches thinner then your finger nail (nail doesnt stick on scratch) but it isnt a great idea. hand width is ideal for spraying with a gun (hvlp) but not for a spray can. Unless it has a very large nozzle or adjustable nozzle due to the smaller spray pattern you want to hold a little further back to increase your pass width. Spraying too close is a bigger issue as it creates runs and can leave lines. Engine blocks with normal paint? if you want it to peel very quickly. Breaks dont get hot? LOL. A part from how pearl and metallic are harder to paint they arent harder...

Do you wet/dry sand after spraying the primer before starting with the base coat? I have a blaze red Mazda RX-7 FC turbo II S5 I'm looking to spray paint on the hood only. The paint is of a type that doesn't need clear coat on top of it. Wanna get this as good as possible so just asking around. A guy wroking where I bught the paint from said the opposite of what you did on paint filling scratches. I wasn't gonna sand in between coats but need to know if you sand after primer before base coating or not. I don't have the mask equipment or a garage for that matter so I'm going to be doing this somewhere in spring or summer on a non-rainy, non-windy day. Is it by any chance okay to do this in the winter as long as it's not in minus celsius degrees?

The finger snapping and mouth clicking made it impossible to finish watching this video.

Thanks for the advice mate. From down under

[@trevor5290]

Here's a couple of tips for you Rattle Can painters. Once the surface is prepped and ready to paint.. Put the spray can in a pot of warm/hot water from THE TAP! do not boil it. 5min is good. The warm paint lays down much more even and the higher pressure in the can helps a ton. Second tip.. if you are running out of pressure in the can but still have lots of paint left...hook a 3mm airline to a small compressor with a gauge, pull the nozzle off the paint can and attach airline. Repressurise to 100 psi. The cans are designed to take much higher pressures but Ive never felt the need or had the courage to go higher LOL Also Sun drying your parts will cut curing time by more than half, but comes with the risk of getting debri on your parts if outside.

[@Jenuin]

The Man thank you

[@YeetxBoi]

With the sun drying thing you can add a clear tubberware bin over to prevent debris! A big thanks to Chrisfix for this one

[@flagmichael]

When I worked in a maintenance shop for small planes the mechanics often left spray paint cans on a little space heater we had - just for a couple minutes of course. One time the mechanic got sidetracked and the can got too hot. The results were about like you would think - it was black wrinkle finish.

[@autocrow]

If you have to use a rattle can to paint, and don't want it to come off with gasoline. Use Lacquer! You can get it at most auto parts stores. Enamel will easily come off with gas and will make a big mess! Take it from someone who painted a few motorcycle gas tanks and learned the hard way!! Still try not to get gas on the rattle can lacquer if you can avoid it. The best paint is mixed in a gun with hardener. That will never come off with gas.

[@pimpmyforklift]

CAN YOU DO A VID ON HOW SILICON OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT DOES OR DOES NOT AFFECT PAINT JOBS , LIKE MYTH BUSTING! THAT WOULD BE A SICK VID MATE
