Hi JF, Take it Barrett Jackson and let a couple of bidders fight over it. You should always wear a mask in the spray booth. Take care.

[@user-zs1ib1fl2b]

Outstanding show, none BS that has turned me off of a bunch of car shows, just the vehicle and the talent. With the talent showing you what actually goes into the build. Not just an old car before commercial, a bunch of drama, and a beautiful car after commercial! Love it!

[@davidcolson7400]

Love how you explained how metallic paint needs to be applied.

[@jayrodmiller]

Excellent advice on doing the best stuff last. I have been a cabinet maker since 1995, almost 30 years specializing in finishing. I always train my guys to do just as you have said. Have a strategy and get yourself planted for what you're about to do. With lacquer based cabinet finish we don't buff out defects, so it's a once and done setup. "Do the dishes" that what we call it too!!! Keep up the excellent content! This is awesome stuff! Jarod

[@danielvick7875]

To be good at anything with real heart is to mess up and learn! In the automotive industry you have to learn this and accepted that's what makes a good car builder hands down! There is no wrong there is learning to get better

[@gerardfenn3988]

Hey JK, @24:00 I commented already and your saying what is in my head. Old School knowledge from the time when there is was what you call, 1 stage paint. We never wore masks at that time and I always did find the smell of the body shop very familiar. It must have been the thinners. Paint Booths, what's that? LOL

[@killerkustoms]

Yup , I’m with ya !

[@michaelshansen7070]

Love you JF, you do the best work I have ever seen. Please keep up on the youtube channel. Keep going!

[@tedosullivan7888]

[@jimmiebrown5014]

That is a real nice color for a truck like that

[@fredsmachinewerks4811]

Nice work. Young lads got good a teacher. Cheers

[@lonnieciallela1526]

JF another great vid keep em coming I sure learned alot for my next home garage paint job

[@gerardfenn3988]

Sorry but I'm somewhat OCD. @10:30 Isn't there a better nozzle for doing a wide area with that sand tar(raptor liner)? The build-up of that product will not be even. @ 11"30 there is not enough product being applied and the gun is blowing too much air., maybe too much pressure. I know there will be sanding after the sealer and primer but the better the coats are applied, the less sanding there will be. Also finish 1 entire section at a time. Top section first, left edge to right edge. The the middle section which is the floor, again from left edge to right edge and finally the bottom section from the left edge to the right edge. This would eliminate most of your overspray. That is just a little suggestion from a guy who hung out and worked in a collision shop when these Blazers and Broncos were still coming off the line. Lacquer Paints were what we used for a beautiful hand rubbed finish. Enamel Paint for the Earl Scheib low dollar paint job. That is a beautiful color. Now back to watch the remainder of the video.

[@killerkustoms]

Thanks for that

[@gerardfenn3988]

JK, I got a kick with the old Blazer commercials. They said it is a safe vehicle, yet when the family was out having fun, I didn't see a "Roll Bar" to protect the kids in case of a rollover. The Blazer is "Safe", but the bonehead Dad didn't want to spring for the extra $69.99 for a Roll Bar. Dad is not such a Safe Dad. Great Commercial. How did you ever find it??

[@killerkustoms]

Teresa does all the sourcing ✌️ thanks for watching and enjoying this Blazer - you’ll have to watch the final episode of how great it turned out !

[@stevencoughran6115]

Nice ,video it will be nice once finished God bless,

[@timjohns3743]

The only 67 to 72 I haven’t owned! I wish I never sold my 1970 panel truck!

[@martinvaillancourt5850]

Magic trick!!

[@rtraymond]

How do you protect your outside hoist from the weather? Great channel, proud it's CANADIAN

[@shawns57garage]

when you say "first coat of sealer" do you use an epoxy sealer ? then throw down the high build primer ?

[@killerkustoms]

Epoxy for bare metal , then high build

[@396M21]

Wait, you didn't even disassemble the chassis before sandblasting?

[@downlowperformanceinc4860]

Good job guys. Don't forget to subscribe to your niebor😜

[@user-rj7xg4kq3l]

Where's my 74 Cuda

[@jimrogers4405]

Why not paint the body off the frame so you keep the overspray off all that work on the frame.

[@danielvick7875]

If you're ever interested in an old guy that's been working around and restoring old cars for the last basically 40 plus years and you need somebody who knows how to sweep a floor and some decent knowledge to wet sanding a car I'm cheap looking for my retirement and the hobby that I've always loved
