This "How to Paint a Car at Home" video did a wonderful job convincing me that I never want to paint a car at home. It's so easy! Just do these 400+ steps each of which really requires years of experience to get a decent outcome within a reasonable timeframe.

[@kenmastersmaster]

So go flush away $10 grand for some shop to do it. Perfect time to squander your savings

[@stevenpollard5171]

This is how to do a first class job! Most home jobs I would bet are done quicker with less steps. This video is daunting to me, too. I wanted a quicker and easier method. Oh well, I am wanting to do an old truck and not a classic. I still need to save up some funds and time for doing a passable job.

[@tonybland8684]

lol. if you would like me to send you some pic of my first paint job I will. the reason I did it was the shop wanted $8.000.00 and it cost me a little less BUT I can now do it and I will not charge you what your local shop will.

[@kristijantandara1682]

Because the actual title of the video should've been "how to discourage people into thinking painting at home is way more complicated than it is". Trust me, it doesn't take nearly as much effort, knowledge or equipment to paint a car decently at home.

[@camerongallagher9544]

This is to get a professional finish, what they don’t say is you could skip sanding steps throughout, also he does say you don’t have to buff. Definitely take your time with body filler but outside of that do what you can.

[@MattProfa]

its so fun to read all the comments about how much work this is haha having worked in an autobody shop ill tell you these guys actully made it sound easier to me.

I recently paid $6700 to have my truck painted. I thought that was a high price, but after seeing everything that goes into painting a vehicle I won't complain anymore.

[@importsstillsuck]

That's a really good price.

[@rogerstephens8980]

If they stripped it thats pretty good but if they just sand and painted it single stage thats pretty high.

[@deankay4434]

At 6:00, a teachable mono ent as the fill has pulled away or feather edged. It looks pulled away that meaning it didn't stick due to sanding (Mechanical Tooth/Pressed hard into first application) or (Wasn't clean or fill had started to set up). Any air sanding after the final coat of clear, is done with a finishing sander with 3/16" orbital action, and an intermediate foam pad and kept moving starting with 1/2" (13mm) thick intermediate foam pad with 1,000 grit. Do not use a regular DA sander if if you have sags, runs or nibs. Use a 2" wooden paint stir struck and fine paper like 800-1,200 grit to remove. Once complete there finish sanders are also sold at HF, so look at specs. A regular DA Sander has a 1/4" orbital action normal sanding. Still, look for a palm sander with 3/16" orbital action being sold under specs. ASE Master Tech since 78, retired.

Or doesnt like his job, and really doesnt care, because it isnt his car. ,etc. This is why I try to do everything I can myself. Not knocking all pros, but "pros" arent always perfect. Thats with any profession, Take a close look at a newly built home. You will see many flaws if you know what to look for. The average Joe wouldnt know the difference. Ive seen freshly, pro painted collision repairs where the colors dont match, or they dont blend into an adjacent panel, and that makes the new painted repair stick out like a sore thumb.

To have the proper environment to paint the car and for it to dry without bugs, dust, overspray etc. Looks like I will now have to make a tempory spray booth!

Drop coat is most important with metallic as your trying to get the metallic to stand up and shine when clear is applied with out dark dead patches along the panel

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Amazing video, great edits. However the only thing that makes the hair on my back stick up is wet sanding and buffing after only 2 coats of clear. This is extremely sketchy on a user error stand point (burn throughs) and also a durability stand point. To low of a film thickness with the clear and it will peel sooner than later

[@rogerstephens8980]

Depends on what clear if you're using a 2 to one high solid expensive clear you get 40 percent urethane a 4 to 1 maby 20 percent urethane cheaper but you need 4 coats to get the same build up . I wouldn't trust 4to1 much about 3 to 5 years. But its easier to spray. Thunder road auto body i use 2 to 1 matrix 3 coats.

[@pchappy2.0]

Great work and appreciate the step by step process. One thing I wish you showed more was how you handled things like those deep inset headlight areas. Obviously that is a hand sand area, and probably hand cut/buff as well. Curious if you followed the same process and if you had any backer to your sand paper and such.

[@eastwoodco]

Yes for those tight areas the standard tools don't reach in we worked by hand. You can use a soft block as a backer, or fold the paper on itself. For cutting and buffing the real move is to make sure they come out glossy the first time. You'd maybe be able to get a 3" buffer in there but it would be tight.

[@terrythomas790]

@@eastwoodco Put any rotating tool in the tight area, and if you catch an edge of new paint, F bombs are sure to fly!! Always have a rotating pad turn off of an edge, not into it! You'll learn quick if you did it wrong.

[@gomez2724]

I'm not sure why a lot of online painter say you don't/can't block epoxy primer, I followed Marks info and it came out great. I assume it's because they mean you can't block it when it first dries, you DO have to wait a couple three days then it blocks like they did in the video.

What exactly is a wet coat or a dry coat and what is the difference between the two? Heard them all my life but never saw the difference. Thank you for this great video.

[@eastwoodco]

Lets go in application order. A "Dry" coat is sprayed on and will have limited gloss, low reflection, and will flash quickly. A "wet" coat is applied heavier, will immediately be glossy, and will have longer flash time. It's how you want the clear to look when you're finished.

At 7:36 it is mentioned that the primer should get sanded down to 600 grit OR sealed, does that mean if your using sealer, you do not need to sand down the primer to 600 grit but if your skipping the sealer, you do need to sand down to 600? But on the car, it showed you sanding to 600 and still sealing it?

1:04 the bare metal of this car looks clean. What if the bare metal of look a bit dark in sommme places, kind of minimal surface rust in it. Will it be enough to clean as much as possible and put primer on it?

[@eastwoodco]

So if you run into some pitted metal and light rust you can't quite get to we'd suggest something like fast etch which will neutralize the rust and then you can epoxy over top and it won't come back. If you don't address it, a couple years later the paint will bubble from the rust creeping back in. www.eastwood.com/rust-remover-eastwood-fast-etch.html

[@joshuabeale574]

So, when doing a complete color change, and you're having to take the vehicle apart for other repair/upgrade items, is it best to paint the pieces individually and then reassemble, or to paint the car all at once, fully assembled?

[@eastwoodco]

That's a choice you can make based on booth space, timeline, etc. We did cut in first, re-assembled, then paint the car. It's one less step if you can paint the car "blown apart" because you won't need to sand off the over spray on the body and re-tape the car. But you also need a bigger booth and/or more time to do several booth sessions. We have several more paintjob video's coming that will show alternate methods.

[@Victorsvolkswagens]

I like to take my hood and fenders off and lay them down so the parts are horizontal because if you spray a little thick its easier to get the thick spots clean

Painting a car isn’t that difficult , most of the time you don’t have to strip to bare metal , just sand with different grades, fix dents and apply good paint .

[@terrythomas790]

True, but with the price of materials, Id rather do more labor sanding to know for sure that nothing previously applied has any chance of affecting the completed job.

I think the most important is how you invest the tool at home. At least you have to get a high cfm compressor. You have nothing to do without it. Not much people will buy a over $800 compressor for home use right. What we looking for is to get decent result with tight compressor with decent price of paint gun.

There's no getting around need a compressor for base/clear. But you can still get your car all the way through primer and prepped for paint without the air compressor and that alone would be thousands in savings. Then either take to a local shop to spray OR rent tools for a weekend and finish the job.
