Roberlo Kronox 610 Clearcoat Review - Classic Morgan Roadster Spray Painting Clearcoat Stage

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

Omg that was a stunning result, I watch videos on my IPhone so I can never see the peel you mention although I do know what your talking about, so all I see is a very very good result ....awesome stuff indeed

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

thanks buddy i do try my best , and yeah its hard to see on a phone and tbh its not alot of peel just more of a thick flat finish if that makes sense, thanks for watching buddy

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

Tonys_Refinishing actually it’s thank you for taking the time and effort to showcase the variety of things you cover in your videos, with out your effort many would never get to see stuff like this, I find it very inspiring

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

@@watchthisspacecarchannel6523 well i really appreciate that mate but the things we do are only possible from you guys watching honestly , without the views there would be no videos , no sponsors which would mean alot less content for us to share and this channel has given me the opportunity to set up my own shop which would have been alot harder if i didnt do what i do on here, again that comes from the awesome viewers and followers we have yes i put in alot of hours making the videos explaining things in a certain way for everyone to understand ect but if there were no views and these wernt helping people then we couldnt do it , so as i said thankyou mate its you guys watching commenting and sharing that has made this channel what it is and im proud of that

Hey Tony, My boss was looking for a good quality, yet affordable clear and decided to buy some kronox based on your reviews ...we've used it for a month now and it truly is unreal. So easy to spray and has an unreal shine for the price. Nothing comes close to the value for money Great recommendation.!!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Your welcome and glad you like it mate

[@masoodamg6633]

Thank you Tony. It became Morgan like his first day. Your work was excellent👏👏👍👍👍🌺🕸

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Thanks man

[@carlheath1814]

Nice vid mate again 👍i have been using the 610 for about 2 months now and love it, used fast first time around but since its been warm i use standard hardener and performs the same mate air dry or quick bake its mint

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

thanks carl and yeah man have to agree its so nice to work with, last few weeks ive been testing some 0300 but dont like that at all tbh, and il be ordering more of this this week and il be going for standard then too this heats killing me lol, great to see another sprayer using and loving this stuff too

[@Dieseldogmodels]

Looks amazing and your work is beautiful. How do you find it holds up over time? I use to run my own shop and tried a few different clears but there always seems to be those little issues that lets them down. Im currently restoring my wagon in my old shop and i just want the best products to be used. With the money thats going into it i dont want problems down the road when there will be a serious amount of hours going into the bodywork, paint and artwork and money spent on parts restoring her. There is a huge area to cover on both the cab, chassis and the extra panels that will be added so a clear that holds up well and allows you to cover a large area without drying before youve had a chance to get it all covered would be ideal. I now paint plant machinery where i work but we only use enamel, which isnt the nicest product to work with buutttt its not like i have chance to test products anymore so any help would be greatly appreciated. Im sorry this is so long winded aswell, i just wanted you to underatand the reasons behind the question. This truck will be a tribute to some of my family that are no longer with us so i want it to really be the best it can ever possibly be, its the least they deserve when they have their faces smiling for all to see. All the best and thankyou in advance for any help you can give me. I understand how hard it is been self employed and trying to find time to do other things. The best of luck with your shop brother.....your work really is first class

[@Matthew-Clark1980]

Very nice looking clear Tony. Might try it out over here in the states. Cheers man. ✌

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

if you can get it over there mate then definitely worth giving a test buddy

[@timiracko6317]

Must say i am not very keen on this clearcoat. Love roberlos primers but this clearcoat just doesnt lay down as good as some others ive used. Maybe the main difference is that we use nitrotherm nitrogen air supply. The problem is if you use the heated air the finish is kind of matted after drying (like shrink back). If i turn off the heated air supply and nitrogen the finish is perfect. So it seems just a bit temperamental when it comes to heat and speed of aplication. Right now we are are using Spies hecker race 8700 clear and i am loving it. Very fast and great deep shine. As far as the gun is conncerned ws400 all day (also love the look of the lotus edition i have). Great vid mate!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

thanks man and some interesting feedback there tbh on the nitrogen system not used one myself and under standard conditions in the booth ive not been able to fault the gloss retention of this but thats interesting to hear fella thanks for the feedback there

[@timiracko6317]

@@TonysRefinishingTV np man, tbh i found the same with many other clears and basecoats when using the system. I found the only upside to be the speed of the aplication, and flashof times, and maybe reduced pressure when spraying. The system is quite picky with materials. I found the system works best with the top brands (spies hecker, glasurit, and mostly top brand hs and uhs clear coats). Ms clears and most i would say average brands come out worse with the system activated. Altho not really a problem since not many shops use this systems

[@hoverparagliding]

superb videos Tony, quick question, you've sold me on this clear coat for sure, but would you recommend the standard hardner or fast hardner for someone with no booth, spraying in the garge in the not so warm UK?

[@TTRVision]

how about the 510? i'm using duxone now but is a very soft clear... many many thanks

[@Ian-hl6qc]

Hi Tony, thanks for vid man, very interesting to hear about the 0300 you’ve tested but not liked, I’m in the same boat I find it very difficult to get it to lay smooth without overloading it. Will definitely give the 610 a go though 👍

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

only way ive got 0300 to work for me was a single coat which i tried on some rims worked really well but couldn't do that on bodywork

[@Ian-hl6qc]

Tonys_Refinishing yeah I know what you mean, I’ve just used it again tonight and found if you double the flash off time even using the 2740 fast hardener it goes on much better. Not particularly efficient though!

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

ive found i have to leave it 15 mins between coats and 30mins before i can bake it and bake for 30 mins at 60c otherwise problems and thats just to slow for us i could have already baked and polished the 610 in that time

[@Hunter_gillmore]

Hi Tony,I have to re paint a red VW bonnet,is it best to paint and clear it off the car? Is it then best to blend it in by painting over the tops of the wings and clear the whole wing? It's a 2009 car so there will be some paint fade. Thanks in advance Jonathan

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Personally I’d do it on the car and blend the wings buddy tbh

Great video as always my man 👌🏻 definitely think you should go for a lotus edition ws400 🤙🏻

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Haha I think it’s going to have to happen yano

[@danhughes7029]

Would you recommend this clear for a guy spraying at home? I don’t paint much my gun is an GTI Pro with a T110 air cap for clears. I need an air dry clear but have used MS clears in the past I’m not sure if UHS will cause me problems due to my lack of experience and not ideal booth.

[@victorpopa8392]

I use this at home, air dry, with the standard hardener. It is dust free in about 20 min. It is safe to touch in 1 to 1.5 hours. The shine is awesome. It's a very good clearcoat, very user friendly. Just do a practice run on some scrap panel. It really doesn't need that much to produce a very good result. I found that it's easier to get runs with the 610 as compared to other fast drying spot repair clear coats, so I go kind of fast.

[@stevenprice1426]

Great video Tony been using this clear for a couple of years now awesome stuff the kx45 standard hardener is good for larger jobs and not much difference in bake time hope all is going well in your own shop keep up the good work

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

Great to hear someone else using it too and liking it mate , and yeah things are getting there mate a lot of work n sweat but it’ll get there soon , hope you are all well to fella

[@chrisfreemesser]

Wow, that off-the-gun finish is amazing! Watching you paint that Morgan made me think of a question though. Let's say you have an older car where the front and/or rear wings stick out at a large angle (say 90 degrees) from the body as they do on that Morgan. If you had the option, would removing the wings to paint them result in a better quality job?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

thanks chris i do try, il be honest mate id have loved to have been able to strip the side boards and everything off this motor for sure but unfortunately there ally panels and bonded to the frame the chance of removing them with no damage or risking bending something was so high it just wasnt worth the rick on a car like this , it was just in for stone chips if it was a resto id definitely have had the lot off

Tony.. I have been using another lines of roberlo clear coats the mixing ratio is 2.1 my question is do I need to add reducer to these clears coats?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

hi tito , it all depends mate tbh temp humidity spraying setup and condtions ect, the best advice i can give you is check the tds sheet for your clear for a guide , use it as stated and then if you want you can try more or less reducer but i gauge this by feel and lay down more than anything , hope this helps

[@VopseaRaptor]

Nice job mate!Is it better than the Liquid glass xtrafast or standard?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

hi and thanks buddy , personally and its not trying to take anything away from liquid glass it is a dam good clear , but i just found even when baked for the times it said it wasnt really 100 polishable whereas the kronox 610 definitely is dry enough after that short bake which for me now as s shop owner thats a big thing we need to be efficient

[@callummatheson2379]

Do you find it air dries better than the liquid glass? I'm having issues every now and then with the liquid glass curing soft or not flowing as well all the time. Can be a little temperamental at times I'm finding. When it's good it's really good but sometimes you'll spray a job and it will just come out a bit peely unless you nail it on which then gives other issues so will defo give this clear a try out. Cheers tony:)

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

yeah it dries perfectly overnight ,ate air dry we did this morgan air dry and as you can see i didnt hold back on the clear on it polished up lovelt the next day and the temp wasnt high in the booth at all it was done about 2 months back

[@callummatheson2379]

@@TonysRefinishingTV Cheers Tony, will try it out when the liquid glass is running out. What would you recommend for a cheaper but still decent clear for doing lower value jobs like track bikes and the like? Would like something alongside a premium clear for the cheap jobs that's still a good quality clear. Also if your still needing air filters, I got a 3 stage filter for my shop from shako for 150 new that's absolutely spot on for clean air at a low price. Even filters all the water out when running the sandblaster👌

[@kristofkellhammer9208]

Hey Tony, do you have just an extraction fan or also an inlet fan in your booth? And how much air flow do you have in your booth?

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

hey buddy so yes the whole roof is a fan driven intake in our booth pushing clean air in through the roof filters and then extracting through the fan at the rear mate its a proper booth setup, and airflow on it is huge as its got a very big plant unit pumping air in and the same to extract it too

Hi Tony Nice work mate! Quick question I am currently thinking of opening a small body shop. Currently working as a mechanical and body shop business but as my father will be retired soon I would like to make it work solely as a paint and body shop as the area could really do with it, Have you any advice and tips from your experience with opening up your own shop? It would be much appreciated. Thanks again Mike.

[@TonysRefinishingTV]

yeah dont do it lol, all joking aside mate one major thing know your worth dont short change yourself just to get work in the door weve all done it and payed the price, use good materials and products too is one thing dont skimp on those as they are the quality that lasts , and if your not happy with a job then it doesnt leave the shop simple as that , wether a customer would notice or not doesnt matter put out your best all the time , id rather have a job run late than poor quality and so would 99% of customers, feel free to message me through instagram or the facebook page if you wana chat further
