[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Much appreciated bro! I'm guna spray an entire car with this compressor stay tuned for the pony show 😂

[@hanknipper3921]

Another great video Marco! Great advice on the small compressor use.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Absolutely

[@JohnWD40TC02]

Some good advice there Marco with a good explanation on how to do it, it also shows that you don't need a mini gun to do these small jobs👌👍John UK

Thanks for tuning in!

True Sir BUT a tool is only as good as its operator your brilliant i have a 2013 Subaru Forester in pearl white trolley dents i won't even tackle it.

I can do it

I was waiting to see something like this ✊🏽👌🏽🔥. Had to subscribe 🤙🏽. Gotta love it .

Thank you very much

Any gun made in the past 20 years should be a HVLP gun ( High volume Low pressure ). Which really should be doable as low as 10 psi. I would treat each panel individually though ( Ie paint just the front left fender , Wait.. paint door, wait.. paint quarter). When I was in school we tested a mini 125cc gun and it was fine as long as you went panel to panel. Some guys actually sprayed clear with it better since it limited the amount they could spray, which stopped runs. Still not ideal though, as you're just as likely to cause orange peel. Was a neat theory crafting test though ha. These guns are nice for throw aways that I will use for Single stage tractor paints on race/derby cars. Considering you can get these for $3.43 shipped from alli express.

Great video and great information, big box store will hate you on this one 😂

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Probably 😂

I was watching and seen a black line on the car, thought it was a sand through spot. Kept saying "cover it, cover it, COVER IT"....then I realized it was a beard hair that fell on my phone. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤦🤦🤦🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

😂😂 it was a burn through on my end as well Very very tiny burn thro

I replied to Marco and bbay1977 twice each below and the posts never showed, but it seems they were counted. I don't know what's going on. To Marco: Time to fill is maybe secondary to running out of pressure and having to take a break. I think. To bbay: This one of those old school killer compressors. I ran it non-stop plasma cutting a 66-foot mobile home frame a couple years ago with problems. Your point is noted, but not sure how much difference it would be between the multiple tanks and one attached 35-gallon. Tanks are about 50 bucks each I think, so not a great expense. I have a lot of cars to do, so at some point I'll need a bigger setup. Right now I want something I can practice on three or four cars with. Thank you for your reply.

KZbin has been doing some wild stuff weird

You said a random word that KZbin censors, nothing to do with this channel necessarily

I have an old Craftsman 5-horse/15gal/220v compressor. Had it a long time but low hours and it appears to work fine. What do you think about daisy-chaining a couple of those 11-gallon portable air tanks from HF or wherever? Seems to be a cheap but useful upgrade? Thanks.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

You could do that would just take longer to fill

[@bbay1977]

Are you talking about connecting the tanks all together, so a single compressor fills all the tanks at 1 time?

[@413x398]

Yes. @@bbay1977

[@413x398]

True, but it seems I would be less concerned about pressure drop at the gun, and I can avoid spending thousands on my dream compressor until this one kicks the bucket. I'm thinking teaming with an LVLP. @@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937

Good job Marco! Have to ask, how much different have it to spray with a LPLV gun on the same repair.....?

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

A lot different

[@meanpaintandbody]

Serious question how do u charge for a job like this I'm new to this to car lot work but I have no idea how to charge

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

15 minuet duo call and I'll go over everything with you. Best 30$ you will spend. 😂😂

[@Evanbmt]

Marco have you tried the SMR-11 yet? The 1150 is my go to clear(used car stuff) the smr-11 tho 1:1 and the amount you get for the price. If it sprays and lays like the 1150 I could see my self switching

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Getting that my next order I'll get it on video

[@nacionreparacion]

Before you sprayed blender did you scuff bumper or the blender goes on top of factory clear? Thanks alot great video.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Scuff clear coat and spray blender over clear coat edge

Hi Marco, New subscriber here. Looking to paint and clear wheels for my new to me vechicle. 45 degree garage with a lvlp. What clear would you recommend? I'm assuming fast activator...

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

I've actually been using the spot glamour clear my last 2 jobs and I think this is what I'm sticking with for winter from here on out. Can spray a whole car with it. 2-3 medium wet coats

[@loganboyer8816]

Marco, this might be a dumb question..but do you charge more when you go to them to do the work? Even if they let you use their facility? Or is it the same if they brought car to your shop and picked it up? Not being nosey. Just wondered.

[@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937]

Dealers have a separate rate because the goal is to keep consistent work. I charge pretty much the same regardless of if I use there facility or not .. I drive 1 hour or 3 hours... It's all flat rate. 🙂

[@loganboyer8816]

@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 makes sense. This job was top notch. Tri coat is tricky. That clear went down flawlessly. Amazing work as always bro.
