WOW!! Now come over to my garage and finish my Split Bumper SS!! ............Please!!

Are the pieces available to fake a split bumper? Best nose job of the Camaro line.

Hey guys you should check out an archeive pic of 55 in gun metal gray and coral pink. Beautiful color combo I think. Be safe. Peace.🇺🇸

[@jimburig7064]

My father had one in that combination when I was a youngster.

[@punkinsgarageandpaint8299]

What is that super build? Like who makes it and is that the name on the can? This car is gonna be a work of ART!

[@mickholgate3347]

looks to be a sprayable polyester filler, something like Upol reface.

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

Gene...we actually show the can of Super Build by Evercoat in the video, so you can see what it looks like.

Next part please!!

[@jsh3234]

As always Your guys do a fantastic job. It looks like they really pay attention to detail. So tell me, I see you are using Evercoat products. Is this Superbuild product the same as their Feather Fill that I used to use many moons ago or totally different? And In your opinion, is it superior to Feather Fill?

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

It's basically the same product...more the less the replacement.

[@davidspencer2333]

Excellent video and excellent work on the '55! The Super Build primer looks perfect for restorations like this. Did he use the Super Build over the body filler and bare metal? Who makes the primer and what is the brand name?

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

David you can see the process in the previous video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYXNcoClbbJ-d9k Evercoat is the brand of primer.

[@joeschlotthauer840]

It takes a special person to sand. I don't think I could do it...

[@venoveno5562]

Hello. How much time do you season the primer before you start sanding? and why the first step is such an aggressive paper as 80 grid?

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

We bake our polyester primer, then go into the 80 to ensure all of our initial body work is straight.

[@mickeyparson9778]

What sanding stage do you do next, 320-400 wet sand or?

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

We'll do a 3rd primer to fill all the 220 scratches, then sand to 500.

[@mickeyparson9778]

[@johnmckenzie6262]

guide coat

[@infinite7501]

That's 3m Dry guide coat. Look it up. Works great. It will show you low or high spots. They are basically using it to show them when they have sanded out the 120 sand scratches at this point.

[@ProModMafia]

just a guess at the cost to body work and paint this 30k ?

[@toosunakabooma1213]

Oh..... Sorry! Body and paint 2020 $100,000.00 And it would be a safe bet that the big question from owner to shop mgr.is" when? " as opposed to the" how much?" This is very likely a half million dollar car that we are observing here. If I'm wrong , it's due to my lowball estimate.This ain't a restoration. Re- animation would be more accurate. The result of planetary alignment and the cost involved is removed from being an issue.Which is different from"money is no object".Somebody is counting the beans here, but no one is losing any sleep. Surreal comes to mind..Powerful forces at work here.Discovery channel minus the scripted silliness.

[@bradmobley5361]

What is that being sprayed at 6 min in?

[@metalworksclassicautoresto9583]

Just wax & grease remover...spray it on to see any imperfections...it wets the panel for a shine.

[@bradmobley5361]

@@metalworksclassicautoresto9583 I was wondering what could be used to do just what you described without soaking in. Thanks for the education.

Paddle sanding...Ommmmmm.Ommmmmmm.Ommmmmmmm.

[@chrishall8142]

Why prime it again you havnt sanded through in any spots down the sides.. use the material that is already on instead of putting more on...why put so much material on and then just scratch the top off and prime again..
