Thank you for posting this. I had this issue and couldn’t fix it coat after coat, but this fixed for me. Great videos and great work 👍

Nice tip will try this method learnt something new thank you for sharing stay safe

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Absolutely!

[@carlosjimz]

Thanks for the advice, this is the 1st time I have so much fish eye spot painting panels, I had 65 % humidity , water in hose and grease on surface, so next time I make sure those things are addressed, your technique helped a lot, plus spraying drop coat criss cross. Charcoal metallic single stage. Will be redoing anyways. Thanks

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Good idea!

Great job explaining and showing the process!

Thanks for this video. I have a hood that is kicking my butt with fisheyes. I have tried everything and they keep coming back. I tried your method last night and presto... they are gone even after laying another coat of paint on the hood.. hallelujah!!

Is this the same cobalt blue metallic as on the Del Sol? Fantastic color!

[@igorpolovinkin1660]

Very nice technique! Thank you!

[@elihernandez330]

So simple but genius. Wish I knew that before but I do now. Thanks for the video. I assume it works with clear as well but maybe less aggressive with the air?

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

100% correct with clear coat fish eyes let the clear flash about 95% and then come back with another 2 lighter coats or simply dust some clear over the problem area (will require more wet sanding )

[@elihernandez330]

I'm gonna try that, usually when I get fisheyes it's ALL over the panel. I paint in a big shared workspace where they spray wd-40 and a bunch of other BS......so I actually use Eastwood's Fish Eye Eliminator. it's the best out of many ive tried and it's only $20 for a pint and a little goes a long way. It helps level out the paint so I like it. I use it in my clear. Incase anyone out there is in a position like mine lmao

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Lmao not a bad idea ... Speedokote sells fisheye eliminator Aswell . I might do a video on it

[@randyanderson6110]

Tutorial much appreciated. Question please, off topic. I'm going to spray single stage white, should I spray the paint as one would spray clear coat or spray it like base coat? I'm referring to the gun speed over the substrate when making my passes. Thanks.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Spray it like you would be spraying clear coat

[@BearBudgetgarage]

Its a miracle i havent had fisheyes yet painting at home 🤞 but now I know how to handle it if I do. I guess before I seen this, I would have sanded it, cleaned it again and sealed it then paint again. Your way might be quicker🤔

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Alot alot quicker lol

[@georgekim819]

wow first youtuber to help with these fish eyes. Did my first job and was it a pain. Thanks for the great video I will try this tomorrow.

Could you show how to cut out or get rid of a paint run with the single stage paint

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Single stage you really DONT Wana get runs in... Cause when you wet sand your basically taking off the color

whats the best budget clear coat for a DIY job, speedokote doesnt sell the smr 1150 anymore, so i am looking for another cheap option.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Actually they do still sell it just not listed on the site. They have the smr1150 for 64.99 a kit . And they have the smr117 one full mixable gallon for 49.99 .

Know this is old, but if anyone knows and is here, can I do this with cured clear, after blocking, or do I need to sand the fish eyes completely out? Thanks!

If you don't have a minimum of 4 coats of clear coat down on it then no

[@kellyappel3015]

@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 No, I meant sand them out then re-clear. I think I'll block the panel flat, then mist a dry coat and go from there.

I'm going to redo my shelby gt sometime in the future. If I can get it super straight and perfect I'll go back to black. I've got competition orange on my mind though. It's a 2008 with 55k miles and it's a driver, not a garage or trailer queen. What's the name of the place where you order everything, even the base? Any thoughts or suggestions? I'm in WV probably painting in a makeshift booth at 80° heat at least and same with the humidity. Love your work man! I watch every video you put out and even push them to friends and family lol

Basecoat you can buy anywhere . Everything else I get Thro www.speedokote.com Speedokote does sell black and a few other colors .

[@B15SDMDESIGNS]

You basically have to drown and suffocate the fish eye. This is the best video of explaining how to deal with fish eyes in the paint work. Mist- force dry - mist- force dry - mist - wet coat. I believe the number of mist coats is dependant on how bad the fish eye is. Some require more than others.
