In Complete SHAMBLES Trying to Mix the Perfect Ultra-Dark Purple (Genuinely Lost It)

10!

[@roczilla2405]

5 that’s a purple I can get with nailed it

[@clayzimmerman3318]

5.

[@richhughes5784]

lol, that look when Fonzie added the 3rd bag of Black Betty, looked like a toddler knowingly pushing the limits with their parent

[@scottfifer4362]

I think the same thing every time he gives that look. He always looks like that kid whose parent is saying, “Don’t you dare!” And the kid keeps reaching inch by inch towards the forbidden object or goal.

[@richhughes5784]

@@scottfifer4362 😂

[@bmfrandomness1565]

EXACTLY! 😂🤣😂

[@TXDeathInvestigator]

A surprising 5 for me!

[@jamothegreat6052]

IKR!!! I lost it at that look.

[@JMccovery]

I'd give this a 10 if I could. As someone that absolutely loves purple, this color is absolutely amazing.

[@bhaughbb4239]

Just watching each bag of the black get added reminded me of art school color mixing for projects. When going for a super dark color, start with the black and slowly add the color until you get the color you're looking for has been a good approach from what I learned.

[@KaivalaJenva]

That is what I was thinking additionally a purple very thinned out over the black starter base could have been awsome

[@vangu2918]

That's what I was telling him through the screen!

[@gordonyork6638]

They all could use a color theory class.

[@douglasstubbs8851]

100% agree, start with black Betty base and add your color slowly until satisfied.

[@francisrwagner3512]

gotta admit i thought you were totally psycho with that much black betty 🤪🤪 but the matte finish not withstanding it came out awesome !! i love the old school look of gloss looking like it is so deep you would fall in but i tip my hat to ya Fonzie it is a winner !! and yes i give it a 5

[@ethanlechner6258]

I wouldve done the 125 to 50 and put more coats but the 150 looks pretty sweet. RATE: 4 And the mixing session was hilarious! Loved it!!

[@thenetnet1343]

Dude... video not a mess. I think you're giving more depth to the channel with the "drama" and what a lot of the general community thinks in their head. Honestly, videos should be more like this

[@fireknightphoenix]

I give this a solid 5. I’m not a fan of the color purple but this even I can live with. The look on his face putting the last two bags of black Betty in was like a kid trying to sneak the last cookies from the bag without mom seeing. It paid off beautifully. I would like to see more videos where we get to choose what top coat, base coat, and pearls that are used. I’ve been hoping for a car that uses valcanic red for awhile as a base. Please give it a try! 🙏

[@SuHu62]

Solid 5 for me. I was hoping you would choose the HKS. For me, most purples run too much to the red/pink side.

[@Tusuratopia]

Such a beautiful color. It's like a combination between royalty and the common folk. No extra pearl or shine, just a beautiful color.

[@waybous]

14:15 It looks so much like the intro to a Grand Turismo game. The color isn't bad at all. Still wanting to know if this is compatible with RC cars.

[@cybertree]

The only thing I love more than how it looks, is the look Gabe gives the camera when he's at a loss for words when Fonzie goes crazy with the pigments 😂. Like a parent watching their kid go crazy with the sugar in kool-aid or something lol!

[@wiredshini]

The way Fonzie looked at Gabe while adding more Black Betty reminds me exactly of how my cat looks at me when I catch him about to knock something off a counter and he pauses and then decides to knock it off anyway right in front of my face 😂 It looks good though! 4.5, but just because the end result seems to lean a touch more blue than I’d prefer but it still looks really nice.

[@snarlyofficial2423]

You should make a caramel apple car. Have a caramel brown color base coat, and put on a green pearlescent! I think that would be a cool idea! 🙂

[@sheenawarecki92]

Omg I love that idea!

[@jeritlejeune2897]

That would look amazing. Would love to see that. Good call

[@holtpage8226]

Well thanks for giving me another color option I have to see on a car

[@JerryGiesler09]

He did that to a red speedform with ZTH Hypershift!

[@ryandubyah2345]

1) I’m with ya 100% on the matte finish, Fonz!! I’ll be doing that on my truck at some point relatively soon. 2) I literally laughed loud as hell when you threw that 150g load of Black Betty into the mix, LOVED IT!! 3) this turned out perfect! I can’t see any way it would have come out any sexier a purple, I’d even call it Sinister Plum if I were to name it

[@mathewjones7663]

5-stars!! Not only was this one of the most entertaining episodes, it is one of my most favorite colors so far!! Please do this with red and blue!!!

[@gerogefinkle4764]

This is EXACTLY how I felt when I painted my GTO. Wanted a midnight purple with fleck, ended up using a dark purple fleck, and then applying tinted clear on it until it was DARK!!!

[@Teufeltusken]

I want that but dark green. Not that I'm not in love with what you've done: that's the best purple I've ever seen, and I love purple. I also love how it works with the indicators and tail-lights - they accent the purple perfectly!

[@derekbrookins6853]

they a green with the black betty i think he called it nightmare swamp

[@JachuJustyDriver]

I love all purples and this is fire

[@SevroAuBarca04]

I’d love to see you guys try to come up with a match for some OEM dark purples, Porsche’s amethyst metallic, Audi’s Merlin Purple, or the Corvette’s Black Rose

[@joespoors3585]

Id like to add to the list. A very left field vehicle but awesome color is the Dark Rosewood Pearl that came on the 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee

[@anthonylehner3643]

Iris blue metallic from the early 90s is also a good one to have fun with! Some purple Pearl in a clear coat definitely does some things for it

[@sp33d4l0l]

Renault's Violet Empereur immediately came to my mind from his description of what he was after.

[@alexhundley1497]

What a sleek, clean, expensive looking color. Would love to see you mix a 3 to 1 ratio for red, green, etc.

[@badopinionsrighthere]

I'm honestly a bit shocked it worked out as well as it did, I was expecting it to be too cloudy and over saturated. Great job!

[@alphagt62]

When he put that last bag of black in, i was sure he was messing up! It looked way too dark, but, the end result was amazing, I really liked the final look of the car. It was still plenty of purple and not a black car with purple hues. Definitely a 5+

[@MissLucindaB]

I love it. 5 all the way. This was my favourite to watch too, just you pushing one packet after another to get what you wanted. Would love to see more like this, and even this colour combo again with even more black. I love the matte finish too.

[@JACKstandJIMMY]

Wow !!!! That turned out beautiful!!!! I really do like the matte look in a car wow !!!! The whole process of mixing and painting is an art ! I subbed for this kind of content

[@i.am.adrian]

Definite 5 out of 5 for that color. And a matte finish really suits modern Audis. Throtl just wrapped their grey RS4 in satin PPF and it looks amazing, because it highlights all the beautiful body creases sculptural edges more than a gloss finish does. This is gorgeous and it looks amazing with the wheels! One note: I would have liked to have seen a composite on screen of all of the sticks of truth, so I could have seen how the color changed as you added more and more black. Great finished product!

[@heathbecker420]

This is ok, solid 3. I think you would have gotten a more menacing look if you did a could layers of a black candy clear coat over the HKS or even a super dark purple candy over the HKS.

[@kdepp90]

My thoughts exactly . Not a bad purple, but could've been even darker!

[@messiah1977]

I'm not a fan of purple in general but I love this. I'd give it a 5. Also, more matte finishes please! I love the matte look way more than glossy.

[@robertsilva5041]

It reminds me of Ford's color iris in 1995. Minus the shinny clear with a slight blue hugh. Outstanding job

[@Robotstarz1]

Thats the best dark purple black i have ever seen , Easy 10/10 , wrap that color purple .

[@billyshay7207]

I'm just going with a 10, flat out. Matte is highly underrated and it helps with doing a color scheme like this.

[@ruthr7837]

A 4. I personally loved the color and was very surprised how awesome the matte looked. It would be a 5 but wasn't as dark as described. Hint: Next time start with a small load of Black Betty and then add in the lighter color. Will look forward to seeing you try that.

[@NastiPack]

I love the matte dips! And this came out like a dark purple you would see around Halloween I absolutely love it and would dip my jeep xj exactly like this! 5/5 LET GO!

[@leahriley]

Definitely five for sure. I was super excited whenever you put that last bag a Black Betty in there, it looks beautiful

[@auroraolson9497]

Absolutely love! 5 for sure! This is one of my favorite colors and you don't see it often in any medium.

[@vishS14]

The matt finish.... My god , just absolutely kills it. Amazing 10 out of 5

[@yowsa90]

I haven't ever really been a fan of the purples... but dang, this is STUNNING. 5 out of 5!

[@lucifer.3v]

Color goes so hard but I wonder what gloss would look with it and a little darker 😂

[@jaz97]

Yeah man I agree 💯 darker gloss make it look drippin wet

[@alanwhitsitt5196]

At the 8 minute mark I was definitely agreeing it was not dark enough. Then you added a bag and I thought it was perfect until you pulled the stick out. Then you added another bag and it looked really good... Then you added the last bag and I thought... PERFECT! Haven't finished the video but I hope it turns out perfect ON THE CAR!

[@carterstewart3417]

It’s simple! YES!! Love the comedic drama and the crazy expressions.

[@williamdillard7473]

I think you could have gone alot darker.

[@gaylecunningham3614]

I have a feeling that there waas almost too much purple in the combination...something like that purple is reallym REALLY aggressive in terms of taking the high ground and refusing to go darker, no matter what someone does. I think I would have started with the Black Betty and then put in the purple a bit at a time until the purple showed through just a bit...I loved the color and am a sucker for matte finihes...

[@peterdibble6632]

Y I think it is good shade of color fool. Just my I opinion

[@stephenmoncrieff2056]

I agree , would like to see this almost completely black with a purple tint to it .

[@bavarianautotech2096]

Agree ... black then purple up a tinge-bit.​@@stephenmoncrieff2056

[@JamieQuirk-p8t]

Yeah, there was no coming back from the 50g purple. I'd like to see 25g to 150g.

[@scottsharp5951]

I am in love. That purple is awesome. A raw matte purple, I would love to do this to my car and hit the rims with some pearl shift purple to blue to green. Fonzie keep going with your gut, in the end you didn't disappoint us.

[@crystalminotaur]

Now you have to do the other purple pearls too. The same ratio you did this one. Do all three in small scale. And make a 4th where you mix all three purple. Go crazy! I'd love to see that!

[@BloodBought5]

Maaaaannnn. I've been binge watching these videos. This one is hands down my favorite color. Came out perfect!

[@bobcprimus]

Stunning! 5 + 5! That mix was pure liquid evil! And this was one of your best videos for the "drama"! Thanks for a great video DYC!

[@eldridgehenry2]

This is my favorite finished vehicle to date. And my favorite color is royal blue. This RS6 turned out amazing in the purple mat finish

[@AnasHart]

I love that Midnight Purple, the colour is perfect! And that matte finish is really nice, its like a satin rather than a hard matte.

[@SharmClucas]

Woah, that's really nice looking. Normally I'm not big on matte but you were right about it on this one. Very sleek. I would not mind having a car this color.

[@jacobandneshannaskaggs3855]

One of the best colors I've seen yet!!!! Full 5 score!!! Great job

[@theatheistpaladin]

What if you used galaxy pigment instead of the black? I would love to see that result.

[@HydetheRapper]

That is a sick color. I’d love to see even darker though. I’ve always wanted a nearly-black color with a dark blue or dark burgundy color that just pops out in the highlights.

[@JohnLloydPhoto]

Now THAT'S a Gangsta Grape! That last shot of the car really showed how dark it can look and I bet it looks even meaner in the shade! I'll give it a "4" cuz I kinda want it darker...

[@sawyeroverfelt7957]

This is what I'm looking for in my car, maybe even more black. Thanks so much!

[@Nathan-vp1ug]

Id love to give that a gloss clear and see it pop. that finish is amazing. From the way you describing what you were wanting i was expecting black with a purple Ghost hiding inside it.

[@LaryAk47]

THe satin finish is amazing! Plz use it more often! The color is also on point

[@TurkeyKing007]

I'd give it a 4. It is gorgeous but as you said "i want a dark menacing midnight purple" I think it falls about 2 or 3 gradients short. Again I do like it though. Well done.

[@ArcCushion]

I love your creative intuitive color mixing process. When you described what you wanted, the final result is pretty much what I visualized. Kudos! P.S. Maybe 1 more bag of black betty would be better??? Haha

[@Sithehandyguy-London]

Cracking colour and I'm glad you kept going with Betty. 5*s

[@karamtalal2725]

One of the best colors ever seen... Love it .. definitely 5

[@NatalieFayntuch]

5 for sure. I love the matte finish, I agree that it’s underrated

[@josephlsimmons]

Out a 1-5 I give it a 10!!!! Especially with the matte, it’s just PERFECTION.

[@stanmeyerjr2216]

1 to 5?? This one is a solid 10! And you're right about the matte finish!

[@davidevans2303]

Hi we sprayed that on a mini cooper many years with about five layers of clear what a finish

[@VollstandigErleuchtung]

5. By far my favourite... The matte is exactly what I'd go for and the purple works very well with it

[@josephyoung6749]

Enjoying watching the transformation and colors of the pigments as much as the natural charm and charisma of the narrator. Not to mention the way his muscles bulge in his tight tshirts, the beautiful way grey speckles his beard and hair like car paint, or enormous, muscled arms that look so mechanical because of how shredded he is hehe... and his voice is so soothing even when he throws a stick down it's at once calming and stimulating... 5 out of 5 if you'll permit me to be so brash. And how his hips jostle from side to side to emphasize what he's saying. I'd love to see him frustrated

[@lindseyedwards9922]

I love this purple on your car way to go guys.

[@fuu2be521]

Best combo I’ve seen. I’m saving this for video for my car

[@lemmingboy15]

I LOVE watching Fonzie, but I LOOOOOOOOOVE watching Fonzie and Gabe.

[@PaigeMustang]

purple is my favorite color! this turned out so great!

[@Noofsmissus]

Your car suits that colour 100%! Wow . . . GORGEOUS

[@theaambler4775]

So beatiful!! When mixing. I think you could go along less of the purple. I wish I could do this color to my ca

[@briancolleran6707]

Wow...solid 10 from me . I want this color. Absolutely love love love this.

[@Catherineann413]

Im with you, when u came back and said I gotta do more. I was like Yes more black Betty, more more I can Imagine the color you’re going for in my head. Go For It!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

[@robertwithrow2900]

The mixing significantly raised my blood pressure but it turned out beautifully! 5/5!!!

[@NinjAsylum]

The purple ended up being a straight 100/5. That is absolutely gorgeous. I dont actually think it ended up anywhere close to where you wanted it originally, but there's no way you cant be happy with the results.

[@norulescrew6636]

5!!!!! My favorite dip so far! Im such a sucker for purple.

[@Mister006]

probably one of the best I've seen on the channel.

[@prezaurian4914]

Very nice. The matte finish gives it a unique look. A bit like brushed aluminum. It pairs well with that color (5 btw).

[@g.w.customcreations3534]

Sooooo much blue coming through in this. Looks awesome guys. 🤘

[@gerryk101]

Love this color ! Great job mixing

[@davesiefert1257]

Nailed it 🎉 it’s a five, thought it would be much darker but it’s beautiful❤

[@jcpoolshark]

For a DIP noob, how long does a dipped car last and how much maintence is involved? (Sorry if this is the wrong place for this)

[@joewilliamson545]

You’ve done it again. Great color selection.

[@joaocarrilho5905]

Damn, that's beautiful! Solid 5! I'm in love with that color...

[@yamahawg02]

I absolutely love this! Awesome color!!!

[@jesswesthomesoftn5855]

It's definitely a 5! Absolutely love it!💜

[@barbaragrant4579]

I was scared there but you nailed it. It's GORGEOUS 😍

[@tylerhanson1897]

Purple is my favorite color hands down and this absolutely killed it hands down my favorite color purple ever and I’ve never been really able to show what I’m talking about 🤯🤯🤯

[@renzokuken1227]

would love to see it this done with plum crazy or grape soda! maybe even try candy black over instead of black pearl

[@irilumi]

it is beautiful. love it - i like the mattie look

[@jenniferrice7877]

it's a frosted grape! i love it. i would also be keen to seen a frosted plum. maybe a mix of HKS and Grape Soda, plus all that Black Betty? also...how does colorshift work w/ the matte top instead of glossy?

[@kssandefur]

Solid-5. I really thought I was gonna hate it after the last bag of blackie-black. But, I love the end result on this car. Would have still really appreciated seeing it sprayed out a bit before adding that last bag-o-black. But, over the fence hit either way.

[@johnnygiddo4617]

My 2004 Ford Falcon ute is a factory dark purple, paint code P3. Looks black at night but dark metallic purple in daylight.

[@ceceliaarchibald5568]

I love that you went with your insane thinking this came out awesome it's definitely a 5

[@noyahb]

That’s It!! If I Ever Finally Decide To Dip My Car This Is The Color!!!! 10/10 💜💜💜💜

[@lymanlatham7005]

I would call that color Tanzanite! So gorgeous!!!

[@juancantu3365]

Brother man, I'm loving the end result. I kind of figured you were going to double up when you got to 75 cuz you're twice as crazy than Gabe so that 3:1 ratio worked out in the end. You had me cracking up after that first 1 minute later😂 it's definitely a five star for me. I like that 🍇Grape Crush look. I feel you could have added maybe half a bag more.....

[@vizkiz]

Looks good, but if you like dark purple, try to mix up a match for Black Rose from the C4 Corvette. It’s a gorgeous color. Make sure you look up the C4, the black rose on the C7 is different.

[@Fuphyter]

As someone whose fav colors are purple and cobalt blue. I approve, love it!

[@canelocarranza]

Nailed it on this one, i kept thinking i hope he goes darker....i want this color on my cayenne

[@gaylecunningham3614]

5/5 for me - the matte finish is a win. And the color is also really present...Maybe reverse the order to Black Betty as dark as you can get it and then adding the puple a bit at a time until you have the level of purple that you want in the color...
