Spraying A 4WD In Raptor Liner Bedliner

[@jpcaptured799]

Something a little different to normal guys. In this video, I walk you through a recent Raptor liner Spray job I did at ShedSessions HQ and give out some hints and tips to help you guys have a crack at home yourselves, Enjoy!

[@cwestallen]

How many bottles do you use for this method?

[@motte-8131]

Thank you for one of the best videos on how to use raptor liner. I feel more prepared and confident for my paint job of a Toyota hilux

[@derrickmurphy9859]

Wow end result looked brilliant as it drove away.

[@jimichan7649]

Thank you! I do everything myself, but I seriously suck at painting. I just finished my '03 Tacoma in Bright White and it came out Great! I watched every video I could find and this one was the one that helped me the most.

[@jpcaptured799]

I'm stoked to hear that your project came out the way you wanted it too. Glad i could help.

[@noahhuffaker8115]

How much did it end up costin you?

[@jimichan7649]

@@noahhuffaker8115 I put 4 coats on the Tacoma, including the "dust" coat and used 13 bottles of white Raptor Liner and 3 bottles of black for the bumpers and grill. I spent about US$700 on 16 bottles of white and $140 for 4 bottles of black. There were some incidentals, like sandpaper, Scotch-Brite, etc, but the truck turned out so well I used those to paint my car too. So, for both vehicles it was about $1500 (didn't use as much paint on the car).

[@jennimareeh]

Another awesome detailed video. Great sweeping in the painting.

[@jpcaptured799]

thanks! 🙂

[@gus_gu2296]

As a qualified panel beater I was happy with this not some bloke who's heard from his mates friend who knows how to do something well done mate good luck with ya gu 🤘

[@jpcaptured799]

Cheers Gus 🤙

[@ashcramond9080]

That was a great video. You explained it so well. Thanks mate.

[@toddbennett6097]

Thx. Great info Sir. I took notes that I've yet to get from the previous 37 videos I've seen. Thx again.

[@russellkellermann9846]

Looks absolutely sensational. Well done.

[@jpcaptured799]

Cheers!

[@jeepinaustralia2477]

Nice work, thanks for sharing. Prep is king! I've done the interior and hardtop and now I'm about to do the exterior bodywork, which I bought the Vari-Nozzle gun for. Glad I did, otherwise I would've just watched your video and had a "I bloody knew it!" moment and be rushing to buy one to get it in time for when I'm planning to do the job! :D Cheers!

[@muzzaball]

Well I was going to say that this was one of the best vids re Raptor on YT - then you mentioned that it was for a customer, well that explains it! No point in me saying that I agree with your methods, as I am DIY but this was a terrific tutorial. I did the canopy of my Navara, which turned out ok, but the tub worked out better, and I did do a mist coat at the end, and it made a hell of a difference. I am just getting in the mood, as I have my Bullbar off and prepped and am about to paint it in Raptor too. It really is a great product, goes on easily and covers up many imperfections and is forgiving for the not professional - like me. If you have a fourby it is a very useful and versatile product. Thanks again for a great vid. Cheers mate.

[@spookysmomma]

I've always wondered why it hadn't happened, so thank you for finally doing it. It looks more rad than I thought it would.

[@jpcaptured799]

it looks great when you do it right 🙏

[@jumperzee9161]

Nice video! Doing an application today and this was very helpful, definitely the best and most concise info I've seen. Thanks!

[@kanefoster5162]

Very detailed instructional video, thank you mate.

[@jpcaptured799]

Glad I could help 🤙

[@lennybaldacchino]

great mate, i like your explanation, i got a holden ute hx 1977/78 308, not much people recommend me, to use raptor, BUT i will do use raptor paint, as everlasting job.AND when some one jelously damage my ute, i myself will repair that scratches. or dent that might get from some idiots on the road, u know, if we do not do ourselves, those panel beaters cost more then the leg and the arms, as our vehicle values goes up, thanks again young man the best of luck,

[@slvrlightning00]

Wow! That's looks sick! Awesome job, great video!

[@pr4tn065]

Dude, this was awesomely informative. Thank you big time.

[@jpcaptured799]

Your welcome

[@m4rku53]

Hi I watched all your videos on how to spray using raptor liner and it was super helpful. Now I want to spray my lwb ex patient transport van in a grey raptor liner and all the black plastic parts black. How many bottles do you think I will go through? Also have you got a link to that better spray gun

[@jimichan7649]

Absolutely the best video I've seen about how to spray on Raptor Liner! I'm about to spray my Toyota. First time I've ever sprayed anything. I hope you can answer a simple question: With one hour flash time between coats, and four coats, that's more than three hours. Is it OK to leave the masking tape on that long and still get good lines? It seems like that first coat would be pretty dry by that time. Thanks!

[@sms9106]

Great Video, something I have been considering for my truck for a while now.

[@kennedykrewoutdoors5392]

Loved the detail. Great video

[@wraithsrath7310]

I have done a few of these over the last 4 years. One thing rinse out your gun with lacquer thinner between coats, and your spay pattern will remain consistent.

[@mrchams]

Looks killer! What a job!

[@djflickit]

Amazing video dude! Thankyou so much for making and posting, great detail and well presented. Although you do make it look alot easier than im geussing it is! haha cheers man

[@jpcaptured799]

you are welcome ;-) and yes, it's probably 30-40% harder than this video makes it out to be.

[@nightrunnernightrunner2474]

[@edmondndrecaj4377]

I'm definitely gonna follow your tips thank for the video definitely something worth watching 👌

[@Dutch1951x]

For better or worse, I'm doing this to my 88 Bronco!

[@tannerdray1280]

Did u end up doing your 88 Bronco? How much Raptor liner did you use? I'm about to do mine!

[@Luke10.25-gospelJesustaught]

I made a lot of mistakes spraying my f150. So to avoid more sanding and reapplying remember these tips. 1. If you are spraying with the Schultz gun make sure it is at 6Bar (90psi) at the regulator not the compressor and stand about 3 feet back. 2. Spray hard to reach spots first then maintain 90° to whatever surface you are spraying so the texture isn't skewed into streaks or ovals. 3. You can also reduce raptor which gives more coverage and will allow for a much more even coat but lower build. 4oz urethane reducer, 2oz acrylic base coat (no binders), 0.5oz base coat activator and 8oz hardener was my perfect mixture but it would overflow the bottle so mix in a separate container and do half a bottle at a time. 4. Have a full bottle of lacquer thinner or acetone ready to clean out your gun between bottles (very important) if you don't you will get thick globs sporadically. 5. HVLP guns require even higher reduction (8oz reducer) and a larger spray hole. The 1.4mm standard clogs very fast but you can drill it out carefully to a 2mm easily but still can't replicate the thick texture of a Shultz gun. Some Wagners texture guns will work but they are more expensive the cheap ones don't work well at all. 6. Rollers should only be used if necessary they are not ideal but having one just in case is a good idea. A paint sponge works great for quick touch ups on mistakes. 7. Check weather for the next 4days. It can't get wet before it's cured. 8. Read upol instructions and follow them over anything KZbin suggests. 9. Wait 45 between coats to flash

[@YurKidding34]

"you need a good abrasive surface." - Oh, you mean like my 20 year old completely oxidized Taco G1 paint? Check.

[@jpcaptured799]

🤣😅👌

[@espenbjrnbak3863]

One thing I have wondered about; How does the doors seal after the liner is applied? All the gaskets now rests against a really structured surface. Isnt this a problem?

[@jpcaptured799]

They sure are, well that's only if you paint them in such a way. When I paint that particular surface the build technique I use is different to the rest, the end result is a hard wearing smoother surface so everything still seals nicely.

[@aarontraylen7785]

great content JP! always great to have videos where we can learn from

Thanks Johnny

[@sunroameroverland]

When you stated to remove the tape after the final coat, Did you do so on the first coat as you said you let it set for an hour, so are you removing all your masking and redoing it for each coat?

[@sittichaiboonkong]

I love this surface

[@cajunman7389]

Great video. I have a couple questions. What do you do with the gun between coats? And what happens with the gun while you prep the next bottle? Thanks

[@kevinvoyson3028]

No answers

[@Jamesmark72]

Is that the 2k color or did you add color? I did one in satin black that turned out great.

[@piersyb8587]

Great video, thanks! Can you comment on how you approached painting the door jambs on the inside? is the thickness of the paint/texture an issue for door seals?

Can you have a WHITE coating that dark coating would be like an oven out in the sun???

are you able to tell us what this cost on this particular wagon, I’ve got a gq with similar accessories ?

Final cost ? Line - X quoted me $10,000 dollars For a lifted van. And still 6 months waiting to get worked on. Nobody wants to take on the job.

ive noticed that the spray pattern isn't very broad. did you find the same? How did your door latches go after filling them with Raptor?

If we purchase the adjustable spray gun is it possible to clean it after each use or do we have to buy a new gun for each time

Any colour to so good!

[@alexsallery]

If you're just raptoring a Bonnet with a spray can is it the same application technique? But just with a spray can? Any tips when using the cans? Cheers

[@jpcaptured799]

my advice on the spray can is not to use the spray cans, sorry.

[@Uncle_Chuck]

How many bottles was this I want the exact same thing on my Nissan patrol can’t believe I found what it’ll look like 👍

[@jpcaptured799]

roughly 12 bottles.

[@clayhuser7230]

Awesome video! Do you ever have issues with fading over time? I know raptor liner has UV protection in it, but wanted to see what your experience is. Would you recommend spraying clear over it after your done as an added protection? Thanks

[@thetonyplush]

When you do the door jambs, how long do you wait before closing the doors? Doesn't closing them cause the inside to muck up?

[@AlL-fw2cy]

What kind of compressor do you have? Raptor recommends 6hp at 20+ gallon which seems a little impractical for a home user DYI without a shop.

[@superpapi]

I have a small Ford Ranger, 2 door pickup, with a short bed. Do you think a 21 gallon air compressor would be enough?

[@mychellehayden2253]

Good work bro

[@rockatanius]

Real question - Raptor liner WHITE as a base coat - then regular metallic paint over the top. Does this work? Light coats. Someone let me know

[@jpcaptured799]

yes, this will work with a well prepped surface.

[@bananasdildo]

Do you remove and remask for each layer with raptor?

[@harrelsonbryan80]

Do you have to clean your gun in between coats? Also, what is your cleaning process?

[@jpcaptured799]

yes the gun needs to be cleaned in between each coat to ensure that the gun spray evenly.

[@jermaineolive1563]

How much it cost to do a car that size?

[@AlL-fw2cy]

So 45-90min set time between coats then peal off 30 mins after the last coat? As long as you keep painting it's 30mins after the last that you peal off the tape?

[@travisdeuel]

What color/tint did you use with what kind of fleck like you mentioned?

Did you bother doing all four coats, including the dusting coat, on the door seals and unseen areas as well?

[@jpcaptured799]

All of the door jam area got all four coats the same as the body.
