[@judih.8754]

Beautiful. Never knew it was the clear stage that was matte. I thought the base might have been special as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@kandyman5315]

You are so welcome!

[@ermanrodriguez1140]

God bless people like you that put out useful info like this. Every time I watch I learn something.

[@kandyman5315]

I appreciate that!

[@hangten1904]

I'm gonna apply this advice on a satin clear rattle can for my painted tool box project. You perfectly explain what causes the satin clear coat to have dry spots and how to fix it

[@larryreno8293]

Thank you for this video. Great information on matte paint.

[@rogeliogamboa7644]

Sir, your video is very informative - I'm an amatuer home spray painter and wanting to spray my sedan in satin black - I found your vid' very helpful - Philippines

[@froe31061]

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!

[@northwestoff-roadopportuni7176]

Thank you for so much information! Excellent work as always!!

[@kandyman5315]

Our pleasure!

[@Mike-qo4kp]

That's a tough job right there. Real tough. Also since people will overlook this you cannot rub the finish (compound and polish) which is why it's painted one coat sealer one coat base etc this reduces crap from landing on wet panels and since you get just one shot you gotta be real, real robot like with the gun speed and distance from the panel cuz every imperfection will stand out. More coats of sealer and base that go on there just more chances for problems. Enjoy the content guys this man is at the top of his game and his trade theres none better try to learn what you can because tomorrow is promised to no one. Best wishes

@Kandy Man bless you for your work ethic and helping me as a novice!

[@deanbrown7643]

As you know k man that finish is difficult to get right but can be achieved as you've shown thanks for the upload 😊😊

[@kandyman5315]

You bet

[@juanmata2433]

I remember when those first came out, I had to do a pearl white in SW AWX. By the tds back then it had to be fully cleared then sanded and matte clear applied. It was a pain in the ass, but clears have came along way since then. Awesome job Kandy man

[@kandyman5315]

Thank you juan👊👊

AnotherGod video .. how do i get my metallic base the egg shell evenly ..im using solvent base and dt898 reducer in a shop notca booth in Florida..preciate any tips

[@kandyman5315]

Brian will get you some help

[@JohnWD40TC02]

Great finish on the clear Kandy Man, I've never sprayed a matt or satin finish but I've heard it can be more tricky than a full gloss. I've heard that some of the matt finishes differ in their gloss level (hope that makes sense) from car to car must be a nightmare to get them right🤔🙏👍John UK

You put a hardener in there, don’t you also have to put in a flexible additive since it’s a rubber bumper cover and it’s flexes a little.

Appreciate the support

[@kseries20-24only]

Yo, this is sick! I want to paint one of my project cars in this finish someday. Any "budget" alternatives would be awesome too, PPG can a lil pricey..

[@williampribas5093]

Fantastic video and I learned a lot from it. I'm really looking forward to seeing the completed car. Every day is an opportunity to learn something new. Great job, Kandy Man! I'd love to see a tutorial on how to do a blended repair panel when using Satin Clear.

[@kandyman5315]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JR-ho5qm]

Nice job! Looks like a nice clear coat. Sometimes I think it’s a good idea to if anything air on the flatter side when matching to the car, because I feel like once the new paint is washed and rubbed a few times it can become a bit more shiny than one first sprayed. Not sure if if I’m wright or not lol! But if to shinny it definitely sticks out more than a bit to flat to me anyways.

[@kandyman5315]

Great point!

[@Lykos98]

I like the colour, can give advise what is the actual colour of that paint?

[@kandyman5315]

👊

[@lewisgriffith1051]

Does the Insurance Company give you spray out matching time?

[@kandyman5315]

Yes

[@DaveInCanada081]

Super well done👍

[@kandyman5315]

Thank you 👍

[@samg5543]

I actually like spraying satin and matte clear since there's no chance of having to buff it. Just keep it clean.

[@kandyman5315]

Love from Greece!

[@PeterRoos]

Nice work. You make it look so easy, but there's a lot of ways that you can really mess something like this up. Better leave it to the pros. Silly question perhaps, but doesn't Audi have an "official" color coding somewhere stenciled on the frame like the classic Mercedes Benzes from way back when? Or do you have to trust your eyes?

[@kandyman5315]

Very true!

[@garylivingston9052]

was the bumper already scuffed with grey scotch-brite or is the sealer trusted to make a chemical bond?

[@kandyman5315]

Bumper was scuffed

[@GarageForty7]

another graet video my man! loving all the tips and i don't even paint lol one day i will have to rewatch all your videos when i actually start doing paint work.

Thats nice im going for a satin black on my Ford wagon is it best to use a reg base coat black with satin clear or one of the 2k satin hot rod blacks with no clear since its like a single stage

[@kandyman5315]

Base and satin clear is my recommendation

How can I get my hands in those clear coats? Tried to find them online to no avail…

[@kandyman5315]

Ppg paint store near you not sold online

[@shanepope6730]

Have you done a satin clear over a kandy color. And how did it turn out?

[@kandyman5315]

Funny you say that been thinking about it a lot myself haven't done one yet but planning to

[@jhcolli]

Confused about one thing. Is the basecoat a satin mix, or is it just a standard basecoat and the satin clear is the only thing that delivers the satin finish?

[@kandyman5315]

Standard base in my system, some are different

[@MrElliotGear]

for your drop coat do you reduce the psi or increase it? I hear mixed opinions on this.

[@kandyman5315]

Reduce around 5psi

[@MrElliotGear]

@kandyman5315 but keep the fluid adjustment knob and fan the same?

[@weave4181]

Really interesting video

What ppg sealer do you use as you didn't Sandown your bumper?

Do you mind me asking what software you're using to edit your videos

[@imran622]

Does it need drop coat after applying 2 full coats

[@kandyman5315]

Yes

[@bilburns1313]

Probably a stupid question - but do you ever wax a car with this stuff on it? What does car wash time look like for a vehicle owner with this finish?

[@kandyman5315]

Most of these finishes are ceramic coated, but yes, you can wax them . .but no compound or buffing
