If you don't appreciate this guys skills you shouldn't be watching his videos, the 500 will be a great Christmas present, I hope she looks after it with all the time you and her dad has put into it.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Lol Thankyou Paul for the kind words and yes I was assured she’s over the moon with it

[@darrengroves9]

Amazing finish out of the gun... 👌... . Still waiting to use my Walcom, I've spent the last 3 weeks welding up a rusty Triumph Spitfire, but onto the bodywork prep this week so should get a chance soon.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks mate and yeah I know what that’s like fella I seem to be spending more time prepping over painting atm

[@billsheehy1660]

First car, what a lovely thing. Brilliant work Thank You.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Yeah it’ll be a real nice motor when it’s done Mate

[@asdreww]

Love this video. Car paintwork is like the last frontier of restoration that i've never touched (& when I have it hasn't turned out great). Would be so cool to work with an experienced painter to lean about how to do it properly. I've got a 30 year old Mr2 with peeling clearcoat on every panel that I think was resprayed about 15 years ago that I'd really like to do something with

[@Mikefngarage]

bet it turned out really nice. I like single stage urethane AKA direct gloss or 2 pack.

[@brianfox5209]

Ty Tony from across the pond, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and skills, I have personally learned alot Proper techniques for doing a proper spray, I pulled the trigger on the Sagola 4600 after watching your channel, it's really helped me achieve results to be proud of!! Cheers

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Awesome gun buddy that still have mine on the shelf will get it back out soon for sure and your welcome mate so glad they help

[@jasonstafford1069]

Thats an amazing finish. Many thanks for the video Tony really appreciate it

Great job on the 500 Tony I do like them especially the abarth cool little cars

Great video ..what would have made it better is before and after pictures of the car to see the transformation 👍

[@cynt1111]

I can paint with a garden sprayer in a dusty garage and get a glass finish but your spraying is on another level.

[@cynt1111]

What percentage of overlap are you using

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Lol such a random comment and I started at 50% and tightened up to about 70% I was playing with this setup as it was the first time I’d used if the more I do the better it’s getting

[@cynt1111]

@@TonysRefinishingTV Slightly finer tip , touch more pressure and think you could paint anything, looking forward to seeing the polished result.

[@garypollentine194]

This one brought back a few good memories mate I used to have the old daf variamatic just one gear forward one back ha ha I painted mine bright red it was a fun car to drive around in we used it for getting parts and paint it was a very cheep car to run around in so thank you for showing that mate plus a very good job as always

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Ah that’s awesome mate glad it’s brought some memories back for you lol and thanks fella

[@pcorf]

Good thing about single stage red is no clear peeling and you can polish it.

[@Boatlife1964]

That’s a real quality finish straight off the gun….beautiful gloss.

Only one thing to say .FANTASTIC!,,! Paint job.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks malc

[@JohnWD40TC02]

Just gave this another look Tony and this time there was no buffering, it took us just over 40mins for us to watch this video last night 😂 have to say mate that is one killer finish from that gun it's really flat and it looked like a flowcoat, I've heard a lot about the MP cap that Gabe and Walcom developed and it looks like it does a great job. Stuart and his daughter should be very happy with the car plus you did a great job with the paint mate. I need to sort out my wow primer sometime but done some painting this morning and my heater had a wobbly and is throwing out white smoke from the exhaust, I'm hoping it's just the glow plug or the atomizer mesh I've ordered both but have no heat again 🙄😠😂

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks mate and that’s such a shame mate about the heater hopefully you can sort it mate without to many issues bud

[@JohnWD40TC02]

Thanks Tony, stripped it down and the combustion chamber and the burner tube was completely clogged up with soot so after a complete clean it's working like new again no parts needed, just have to see how it goes 🤔👍

[@fattoamanowoodwork3638]

Great tips re distance/tip set up. Something that I've been experimenting with my novice guns and novice experience. Also great idea to use some test panels to see how far to push a specific set up with a certain paint. Thank you.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

No problem at all mate

[@adampye905]

Totally agree with you about paper not polly.

Yeah not sure what it is but a prefer it allt

Another cracking video & it came out nice 👌🏽👍🏼 Tony

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks bud and yeah I was pleased with how it turned out

[@Amer76R]

I love how it came out, it looks brilliant. Do you mind sharing how much paint ( quantity) if required for this size of a car?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

I think it was 2 litres we ordered

[@SLYDIT]

Love watching red being painted. I painted my Mx5 with direct gloss red with an FLG5 and it came out waaaaay better than I expected. 👍👍👍

Nice man always nice when a job goes to plan hey

[@gtibruce]

@@TonysRefinishingTV Is there an equivalent Walcom spray gun model that is similar to the Anest Iwata LPH80?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Yes mate the ego 190 mini gun mate it’s got a bigger fan and better spray pattern though in my opinion than the lph however can be adjusted down to just as small as the lph80

[@paulnann2572]

Have you a insta or anything to check it out im planning on doing my mx5 with the same gun

[@SLYDIT]

@@paulnann2572 I did post a few pics up on some of the Mx5 sites I'll see if I can find a link. Best advice I can give is remove the bumpers/doors /bootlid. Makes painting the shuts easier and removing the bumpers gives you a better finish on them because you get weird airflow causing poor coverage especially the top of rear bumper. I used a 1.4mm but 1.3 would prob go just as well. 1.8 for primer...

[@kimojoseph8057]

Great 👍 one Tony and that walcom mini gun is a boss I love it so much versatile for a small gun Tony haha 🤣 that video was amazing 😉 I enjoyed it much love keep it up bless evening bro 👍👍👍👍👍👍🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@vasiliskaradimos]

Hi Tony... Another great video from one off the best channels on KZbin... Tell me please which wet on wet primer is this? Is work with harter or only thinner? Did you ever paint solvent base on this wet on wet? I do a lot of jobs with wet on wet but some times it isn't so smooth and I give it a lite guick sanding before base.... Thank you friend...

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

This is Mipa high build primer usually mixed 4:1 , for wet on wet you mix there high build 3:1 and then add 30% thinner and yes water solvent or base and gloss is fine over it

[@vasiliskaradimos]

@@TonysRefinishingTV Friend this is my every day high bild primer and I know all the mixing system off this... For wet on wet I do the same 3:1 and some times 4:1 with 30% reduser... I have mipa painting system(solvent+single stage) very good company for me...

[@michaelakerman7860]

Great work, do you give the direct gloss a clear coat?

[@TheAffrojutty]

Hi there, I’ve just come across your channel 👍 I’m gonna be re spraying a van I’ve recently converted into a camper. I’m wanting to use a 2k direct product but probably in a satin. Any product recommendations and any tips on what kind of gun to use, maybe a good second hand one?? Cheers!

Good refinish bro pat on the back ✋✋

Thanks dean hope your well fella

[@SalvageMasterEssex]

Not sure who's doing the spraying but would be interesting to see results of a non expert using the Walcom gun 👍👍

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

It’s not him himself doing it mate but you’ll see in the video , a lot of my trainees so to speak have been using these abs have loved them mate

Nice finish Tony gun looks good.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks man

[@blademan4043]

Great video as always. Question about the gun. If you change the needle and the nozzle to a different size, do you also have to change the air cap on this particular gun? Can the cap be also substituted from HVLP to HTE,?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

I’m not sure mate I’d have to check at work tomorow as for the change from hvlp to hte honestly I’d ask a walcom rep mate first on that one

[@paulr7582]

Mint job mate

[@markdullaghan847]

Looks a top class job ! Would the wet on wet primer not travel further than you’re paint in the gaps? Love the channel

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

I’m suing jtape advanced foam in the shuts so I can shoot the wet on wet then you can push the foam in a tad more for the gloss coats to go past any edge

[@swc-diygarage]

Great job Tony

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks buddy

[@MassiDeVita]

Great work, Tony! Which grit of sand paper did you use on the not primed red parts before you sprayed the 2K acrylic red paint? Thanks a lot!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

The whole car was sanded back with p500 mate

[@MassiDeVita]

@@TonysRefinishingTV I have to spray a 2K scratch-resistant clearcoat over the original clearcoat of a 2005 Seat Ibiza (color code: LS7U) to increase the actual low thickness. If i sand with a P1200 do you think i might have peeling problems in the future? Would it be better if I use a P800 or some grey scotch brite? Thanks again, mate!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

If it was me I’d go p1000 abs scotch mate

[@Bikebros27]

Would you say using direct gloss is better than, the base coat/clear coat options?

[@stuartgreen3294]

Not sure why I’m watching this video don’t know anything about cars or painting them but it’s addictive. Do you buy the paint in the tubs you have on your spray gun?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Lol that’s such an awesome comment yano stuart lol welcome and glad your enjoying it , no we have the paint mixed in tins mostly then seperate out into the disposable cups as it makes hun cleaner faster and more efficient on thinner use for cleaning ect , if we mix a colour off our scheme ourselves then il mix it direct into the disposable pot for the gun

[@cordellmckie4190]

Hey man..I'm intrigued by your skills and videos. im looking to buy a new gun and I would like your thoughts on the walcom carbonio 360 vs the iwata supernova ws400.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

The iwata supernova in my opinion mate it’s alot more cost effective and a huge favourite of mine

[@ze_german2921]

How is this carbon 360 for Base Coat and Clear, I see every time you used it was for 1k Paint like the T2VW Camper Bus? Would you recommend something else? I want to invest in a very good gun that could do it all. I rather have one expensive gun than a bunch of cheap ones not counting a primer gun.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

this is 2k gloss not 1k gloss, its great for base and clear ive used it in a few videos recntly with clear, ive just got alot of gloss work on atm but can highly recommend it

[@recruitmentwebsites]

Thanks for thsi Tony

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Your welcome mate

[@jeremyoetken2094]

How are you liking the mp cap?The standard cap I wish was a little flatter finish. Does the mp seem to get it flatter?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Il be honest the mp cap atm I’ve not had enough use with I can get it just as flat with either atm man

[@miguelromandv7]

When you say Direct Gloss is that the same as Single Stage paint here in the U.S?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

yes mate

[@clivestedman2422]

Hi Tony, sorry for the naïve questions (I’m a complete newbie). Is the paint you’ve used naturally glossy and therefore doesn’t need a clear coat? If so what if any is the advantage of going this route? And could you add a clear coat if the finish isn’t glossy enough? Also am I right to assume this is a 1k paint? Many thanks Clive

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Hi Clive so any question is fine here buddy that’s what we do , so this is 2k gloss or single stage gloss as it’s also know it is a paint and hardener mix so not 1k , it’s cheaper than base and clear as far as cost goes and also takes a lot less time because it’s a single stage process too , benefits are less cost less booth time and the prep doesn’t need to be as high , think of this as a clear with colour already added , base and clear would give a better lifetime to the job not something you would notice if you had a car for a few years , but does cost a lot more so this is better to keep cost down but still have a job that’s as nice and glossy as a base and clear job hope that helps

[@clivestedman2422]

@@TonysRefinishingTV thanks for explaining that. I’m planning to spray my car in my garage and I will only have access to basic PPE should I go the 1k route as I think 2k needs proper BA or a complex face mask? Thanks again

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Honestly mate the issue there is 1k stuff won’t last at all 2k is a lot better maybe try to find some non or very low isocynate based 2k buddy

[@OKANE-dy8yd]

Hi nice job but why u doing it in direct gloss why not use 2k paint n laquer

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

2k gloss is the most cost effective way to do it id usually add a coat of clear but I was already 3 coats of 2k in so didn’t want to risk it solvent popping or overloading

[@ANDY-we7mr]

so tony is that your favorite gun !

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

I’m loving these carbonios mate yes not had enough use with this cap setup yet to comment on that but the 360 I’m using is for sure my favourite atm

[@k4x4map46]

Does spraying that close have any adverse affects on coverage, splatter (paint bouncing back---whatever that's called)?
