How to Paint Single Stage without Orange Peel

[@scorpionpaint]

Hello, watcher from across the pond here. After binge watching hundreds of hours of videos, many of which on this channel. Just wanted to say thanks for the content. Recently did my first paint job using a LVLP a610 and a small compressor, this was on a bare metal tubular chassis using 2k epoxy primer followed by 2k single stage metallic but I will go on to paint the car itself once it's built. Still lots for me to learn but this type of content has been invaluable to getting the confidence to have a try so thanks, keep up the good work!

I did single stage and had fish eyes EVRYWHERE. But the guy was a seasoned fisherman, so I told him I added the fish eyes to honor his fishing passion. He was thrilled, and all of his fishing buddies were jealous.

you had a contaminated paint booth/area/ vehicle... only time i got fish eyes was when the body techs wanted me out... jokes on them now. wax and grease the panels. if they still fish eye, you got other factors at play. arm and hammer has silicone in it. silicone the smallest amount can make a whole car fish eye. did you wax and grease the door jams as well?

Alex, I'll take things that never happened for a 100.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

This is definitely the smarter way to do single stage for max gloss. My most recent job the third coat of single stage is where I got to much build up and runs. Which are easy to cut and buff out ESPECIALLY on single stage solid color. But these guys definitely did a great job! nason products are also another one of the best DIY friendly budget paints that give a professional finish.

[@mikegranados1902]

Finally a single stage video

[@dand3975]

I miss Dupont Centari acrylic enamel single stage and a Binks #7 spray gun layed down metalic colors well, the Centari hardner brought out tbe gloss and added durability. That truck in the video came out great with that Nason single stage paint.

[@garylivingston9052]

yes, Centari rocked and would lay nice and flat without all the orange peel of these urethane paints. Urethane is made to match factory and always shrinks back , if you want it flat you need to sand and polish it.

Ive sprayed single stage for over 12 years and used all the top guns and my 2 favorite guns are the lph400 and teknas. It'll take you a little bit to get used to them but they are fun (imo). Only thing I do differently from the video is how long I wait to apply clear. I do wait 15-30 min depending on the weather or thinners used. I've had reactions with the clear and paint if I go in there right afterwards. good luck with the new job

Love painting single stage. It is an absolute joy

[@Williammartinez8735]

Mix a quart of clear coat rts to a 3/4 gallon of single stage solid color and medium reducer mix well 70° degrees or 80°. Spray as normaly as you do. Flash time may vary. Yes maybe slow better but you can polish without burning through since you didn't clear only over the color but just because you added clear coat to the color doesn't mean you can't burn the pain so keep your job clean as possible

[@fastelbow]

[@glennnickerson8438]

The beauty with single stage paint is you can re-coat to cover imperfections. The disadvantage to single stage (without a coat of clear) it is difficult to do a blend in case of body damage. Also with metallics there is a trade off between the flake laying down right and orange peel. As usual Brian, well done!😎

[@erickt2665]

Also they say you shouldn’t buff/polish metallic single stage. With metallics I notice that they tend to mottle very much, especially the larger/coarser flakes

[@glennnickerson8438]

@@erickt2665 very true!

[@rpb1961]

A blending solvent like Sikkens SRA reducer will make any blend invisible even without buffing if you know how.

[@user-mp8er1ds9x]

As said, the blending solvent is a great tool. They work. Blend into the next panel with an elongated S diagonal pattern. For all over metalics, get plenty of wet EVEN paint (three medium wet coats) coverage on the car with slow reducer, let dry to the touch of the tape. Then reduce the paint another 30% and spray it with a fast arm stroke from 50% farther away in random directions. Do this "just" before you can touch the paint on the tape. Don't get carried away with this last drop coat or it will go dull in a year. All I do is blends for local dealers and metalic single stage all overs for local body shops. But then, I'm still using 40-year-old Binks 7 and Devilbiss guns, so.

[@glennnickerson8438]

@@user-mp8er1ds9x "Old Timers" could blend single stage well. Every time I did I would get solvent droplets all over the place. My Willys Coupe I is wearing 30 yr old Centari enamel on it and everytime I do a blend I have to let it sit a yr or so before buffing it or I get a dark line on the edge of my blend. Then again the great outdoors is my spray booth! 😆

Well done Brian. First time I did a base/clear job my first thought was this is easy………….that was after many years of essentially shooting single stage (urethanes, enamels, lacquer…..)

[@jerryvikla3925]

Beautiful! When you talk about keeping the wet edge, I deeply regret having tossed my early 80's Martin Senour paint chip book. It had a great tech section which included a diagram of how to move around a full sized car (single stage back then) to keep the edges wet. I recall those jobs as being extremely frantic, especially when you needed to refill the gun. Laying the hose out in the proper shape on the floor to facilitate moving from side to side and front to back was equally important. Like you say, basecoat clear is much easier and forgiving. Metallics were nearly impossible to get wet without zebra stripes. Great video as always!

Adding clear is a bonus step. Don't be confused about it. If you can spray clearcoat you can spray Solid Color single stage. I'm not too bright so the first full paint job I ever did was metallic single stage acrylic enamel. 😂I did have to respray a few panels, but i worked thru it and in the end, i had a decent paint job. Made the next job easier, actually, since this one was a bit challenging

[@goneflying140]

I have recently been spraying some fiberglass airplane parts. I discovered on my own that the first coat should be thin. Wish I would have seen this video first!! I was trying to make it shine on the first coat, and getting runs like crazy. I then put a thin coat on, and pounded the second coat with great shine and no runs. It lays out so nice too! Sometimes I would get little bubbles in the paint from tiny pores in the fiberglass. I would pound a third coat over those areas and they would fill right in and not even need sanding or buffing. I used Omni single stage and it seems to work really well with the gloss hardener. Love this stuff.

[@abruptlyblunt]

reminds me of how we used to do it back in the old days, only we dusted on a couple super fast flashing coats of lacquer for the color coat then followed it up with a couple progressively wetter coats of clear enamel, quick , simple and always looked good, well almost always.....

[@jimdrechsel3611]

I always learn something watching Brian. Question - You have all the guns and paint ready and then you switch over to the clear etc. Are the guns used for painting clogging up while you spray the clear? What do you do with them? How do you handle when to clean guns in between longer flash times and switching materials? When you see "pot life" does that mean your gun won't dry up and clog during that time? Epoxy primers have long flash times. One person doing everything seems like a huge task to manage this. What's your procedures/advice for this situation for managing the guns and cleaning? As always enjoyed it.

I’m about to do my Datsun 510, I single staged the engine bay and installed the motor before I took it to the paint shop for base and clear 20 years ago. That paint is cracked and peeling and the single stage in the engine bay still looks like it did 20 years ago. Obviously it hasn’t seen UV and weather, but I’m sold on its hardness and durability.

[@AcuraLvR82]

I just did my first single stage it was electric blue metallic by Hot Rod Flatz. Did it with the Kiwami4 on about 30 psi and it turned out great with zero orange peel. Followed pretty much the same method but before first coat did a few fine mist coats because I was spraying around 55 degrees. Did mine one panel at a time and used an infrared space heater to help speed drying.

With using black single stage paint can u add in some metal flake to the paint then add a coat of extra clear ..it will be my first project

[@erickt2665]

Yes you can do that, i recommend making enough paint to fix any metallics mottling (maybe like 140oz for a mid size sedan like Camry) But yeah like Brian said probably don’t recommend spraying metallic single stage as a first project. If you do any metallic do fine flakes. I think you would be better off adding some pearl to it, I notice it doesn’t mottle as much

[@huggiman84]

Hi Brian, I've never used single stage. What is the advantage of doing 2 coats single + 1 coat clear. Vs base coat clear coat which would probably just be one more coat of clear? Got an FJ60 I will paint in the spring - toyota light blue metallic 861

Excellent video. Thank you. I’m looking to do this with my ‘88 K5 (square body). Plan to redo it in the same as the factory two tone. White-red stripe-white bottom. Should be the same white as this ‘96. At what point would I do the red? 1. Finish the whole truck out with a couple coats of white how I want it. 2. Allow it to fully dry. 3. Tape off everywhere but where I want the red 4. Shoot a couple coats of red. 5. Allow to dry. 6. Pull tape and paper 7. Shoot clear a couple coats over the whole thing. 8. Allow to dry. 9. Cut/buff -or- wet sand, then cut/buff Sound about right?

Nice Video. I spray a Lot Of Single Stage even Metallic, I Learn on the 70' when Centari Dupont, Acrilic enamel was the rule. I always begin and finish with slow reducer , slow activator, plus retarder. Adjusting the fluid in the gun to mirror spray, and by myself keeping the shine even start to finish, giving and testing the flash time. Single stage without a clear topcoat last longer, and when fade , onlyy need a compound and come back like new. I only mix clear with single stage on metallic , evrething slow start to finish and a fog coat 1to1 clear and color mix, when the system is 4 to 1.

Totally important to protect yourself. Many years ago I was painting with an autopaint that had isocyanates. Those go straight through the skin. I had a good respirator for organic solvents, but I didn't have my arms fully covered. Yeah, you feel it pretty fast. I covered myself in a proper suit and was ok.

[@newagetemplar6100]

Very nice job , admittedly I’m not the best painter in the world and don’t do it for a living but I always take the doors / wings etc off . Makes it so much easier especially if you don’t have a spray booth. Second tip although some may disagree/ job dependent is say when painting a door paint one side first and get some wrap round, leave it to harden properly. Then block back and dust / overspray and then paint the other side . This takes the stress out of dust issues in cavities and actually holding the panels. Technically then it’s only the shells rear 1/4 / roof skin to do in one hit and if you F up it’s a lot easier to just blow in / re paint. Never underestimate how hard and skilled someone needs to be to paint a car . Oh and yeah it sounds stupid and obvious but make sure ALL your panels fit , PROPERLY!!!! 😂

This job came out wonderful. I am going to attempt to paint my car myself in the spring. But i do have a question. Everyone talks of "wet coats" and "dry coats".

Thank you and keep up the great work.

[@gato6100]

Dry coat simply means that you spray a thin coat, you have to reduce your paint flow on your gun and your dry cost will look dull and will be translucent. This coat is basically a tacky glue coat. It will look like shit. 2nd and 3rd wet cost will make it look awesome. Wet coat simply means you apply more psint does making it shinier or wet look

Hi guys, is it better to remove the tape while the paint is wet or dry? If you do it dry, how long do you wait? Reason is pulling the tape could tear or ripple the edge of the paint. I was taught to remove the take while the paint is wet. It is critical but it can be done.

Are you adking - Does buffing scratch the paint after 23 years?

[@JQuintana-g7n]

@paintsocietybrian do you have any videos of clear coat spraying with hyper shift flip flop pearls over white? I have a white 93 truck just like that that I’d love to just go over with more clear with orange & red pearls and flakes in it.. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@jeffreymceloryjr4155]

What paint code is this, or color name? Love the brightness of this white!

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

When Ive done single stage, I've often added 20 % clear mixed in with the single stage paint for the final coat or two

[@zacsdiycars7767]

I've seen issues with that down the road

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

@@zacsdiycars7767 none on my side but I do use the same manufactures products , just adds that extra bit if gloss

@@zacsdiycars7767 What kind of issues can that cause?

[@SteadyWorksGarage]

Can you do this with one panel at a time without issues? Or will there be a difference in color?

How much paint did the paint gun use to paint that truck. Just wondering cuz I got same truck and painting it myself

[@roriecoker]

Hi Bryan. I am getting ready to do 78 TA in arctic white. Do you think I can panel paint this car at different times and the paint match okay? It is a solid color. We'll use the same paint with the same pressure. Thank you

How many hours in prep and painting and all will it take? How much were the supplies? Just curious because although I know paint jobs are fairly expensive I’d just like to know how it all breaks down.

[@gato6100]

2 days to prep ready for paint. $500 paint prep material

[@DavidPrater-h8d]

That looks nice! Maybe I missed it but how much paint did it take to do it, was it just one gallon?

3:40 I never had anyone explain this to me but I came to figure it out over time and have had many disputes with my father regarding how to spray using the system we use to what he is used to from back in the day 😂
