It’s all good stuff, pleasure watching all your Vids 👍👍

You are not afraid to tackle a big job! Looks Good!

[@lesterbrown865]

Hi I painted water tanks mostly for twenty years and have been driving over ten now. I bought my own truck now and it needs painting your video made me think I can do it myself again. I think you done a great job I hope my old T2000 comes out looking nearly as good as yours

[@abuubaydullah1]

WoW awesome job the first van i painted was way back in the early 80s and i did in a small garage at the back of my house and wait for it i used an electric spray gun load of thiners but it came out really good and did alot of cars vans then my life change and it was the end of that but yes you've done yourself proud just as good or if not better than a paint shop .

[@jm1551701]

"Take pride in your ride", I like that, you are truly an inspiration,

[@oleksandrpoliakov3531]

Awesome job! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@MY2NDM3]

I admire what you do and the amount of work you put into this. You are one heck off a skilled guy. That rig looks awesome!!

[@kman-mi7su]

Wow, that old bulldog turned out beautiful! Great job! If that were my truck, I would then turn around and break the budget because I'd be tempted to hit the chrome shop and add some serious bling to her.

[@jordancampbell9440]

Great job man hard work and dedication sure does pay off

[@agg2179]

Just subscribed to your channel and I'm glad I did. You have a wealth of knowledge and I like that you explain what and why you're doing what you're doing. Learning alot. Keep it coming. I like learning how to do things myself or atleast understand how it's done.

[@Ezrider359]

Glad you are enjoying the channel

[@jameshickey9393]

That Mack needed some love and you provided it. I like the fact that you lay out the process on how to do this just like your other videos. Very much appreciated.

[@kilroyb7700]

Great video. You keep it real. Thankyou.

[@jeffreykreft5442]

Great job!...You saved a mess of $$....enjoy all your videos, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and abilities, it's a great help.....be safe

[@Ezrider359]

there was a lot of hours of prep on this paint job for sure im sure it would have cost a pretty penny at a body shop if they didn't cut a bunch of corners like was done when the hood was previously re-painted. glad you are enjoying the videos

[@Wesshaw1996]

You really did a good job I enjoy watching your videos I'm a diesel mechanic myself but never been a painter that's a good skill set to have. Keep up the good work man

[@Ezrider359]

glad you are enjoying. im not much of a painter myself just good enough to get by, somewhat true for mechanics as well. spraying the paint is the part that intimidates people the most but its actually the easiest part and only part of the process i find enjoyable. its everything that comes before that witch will make or brake a paint job. painting a few mailboxes can generally get someone past the intimidation of spraying paint.

It's base/clear imron vrs single stage. But even being 2 stage the base laid much more like a single stage would

[@edwarddavis507]

Ezrider92356 wasn’t sure if you used clear coat Imron over the base but it appears you did... very smart.. MACK looks awesome! BTW you have inspired me to make the time to get some of my projects done. Thank you very much for the video!

I love that paint its aircraft paint poly urethane. My peterbilt 379 I painted with it . Your going to love it when it gets dirty and all you have to do is shoot it with a hose and dry it off and it will glisten just like it was waxed. Great job boss

[@Ezrider359]

i figured its not a job i wanted to be doing again for a long time better to use a good durable paint.

[@jeffleblanc8850]

You did an awesome job you are a hard worker and your work is awesome good for you that would take me weeks to do but I guess your working your truck so you can’t take your time but very good job especially not having a booth

[@Ezrider359]

It was probably about 60 hours worth of work.

[@johnshelton6722]

great job bud,i have both my classic fords to repaint and you have lifted my confidence 100%,i would reckon you are self taught and save yourself thousands of dollars each year,and i see no problems in maintaining your own truck(s) vehicles harming the economy.

Thank you

[@ericcorse]

You can tell that isn't your first rodeo, looks great Imron it supposed to be a tough paint. That was an interesting version of "Green Onions" ( the first background music for the youngsters).

[@Ezrider359]

It was my first semi paint job and first time using imron but iv painted a number of cars over the years.

[@Ezrider359]

The version of green onions in this video was actually recorded by my dad using layered multi track recording so the entire song is actually only one person playing every part. I had forgotten I had used that song in this video. 👍

[@ericcorse]

@@Ezrider359 That is cool, I really liked it

[@1982dimka]

I love Imron paint. I send whole truck with 320 grit (dry send) ant it turn out amazing

[@Ezrider359]

yeah imron you would probably be fine shooting over 320 dry its pretty thick sticky stuff. other automotive paints iv used 320 would probably have a pretty good chance of having some sanding scratches show threw. this was my first time ever using imron.

[@1982dimka]

@@Ezrider359 I did use a lot. I would say that's the one of the best pain I ever use. You can c pic on my profile It's one of my truck

Looks gud

[@Ezrider359]

thank you

[@Lost_AtSea_]

I love how he's got no ventilation in the garage and overspray is going EVERYWHERE!!

[@Ezrider359]

theres ventilation, although ill admit not enough. over spray is dry before it hits the ground you cant sweep it up.

[@MarkHayes-ue7hs]

Digging the music.

[@tyflesh]

wow the truck turned out really good I got a old condo that could use your touch on it, just let me know when is a good time for you! lol

[@mightymoeexcavating754]

Emron is good durable paint, I used it all the time,now it can't be bought in Canada. Centari paint was good too, a gallon of expoxy primer is $200 and change here in Canada. Big job for one guy to tackle u didn't outstanding job, ty for sharing

[@Ezrider359]

iv heard a lot of places are banning it due to not meeting voc requirments, first time iv used it myself on this project but i like it, id certainly use it again.

If you have a decent shop and some tools and motavation its amazing what you can do ive ben fixing any thing from old macheanery to dumpsters for last 4 year in my shop rebuilding old rusted trailors and mack truck that ben on their side

[@alexanderescarsega3016]

Hell yeah

[@ericlakota6512]

It looks great i do good paint on tractors and cars i wouldent want to paint a 57 chevy or lambergini for some one but you dont need a booth to do a good enough job for work vehicals

[@Ezrider359]

A show quality paint job your going to cut and buff with or without a booth. You would probably be surprised just how good of a paint job you could do in a garage or workshop. It's a little less work with a booth but not by a lot

[@86lowrider]

Looks good, Emron is a tough paint. Should last a long time.

[@Ezrider359]

that's why i used imron its defiantly some tough stuff, its a little tricky to spray but hope it lasts another 20 years.

[@the.porter.productions]

It’s September 2020...it must’ve been a little chilly when you painted this Mack since you had heavier coveralls on. Great job. Do you like green paint? It’s not my favorite color, but it really looks good on your Mack. Did you even think about changing the color altogether or were you just trying to keep it original to the color code on the sticker? A lot of work, but worth it. Stay safe and continue to Take Pride in Your Ride. Oh YEAH!

[@rocsvt1]

green=💰 looks good!

[@Ezrider359]

Got that right lol repainted the factory color Jade green metallic. Wasn't a fan when I first got the truck but it's grown on me

[@GOODAN2006]

I put that Emron paint on my Peterbilt after five years all I had to do is wash my truck and it shined like the day it was painted.

[@Ezrider359]

It's not the easiest paint to work with but it sure is tough stuff

Good job man , What sprayer did u used ??
