Shooting House Of Kolor Kandy Brandywine

[@gpena383]

Was the primer sanded down before the Orion silver application?

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

@gpena383: Absolutely. Primer was sanded with 400grit then sprayed a grey epoxy sealer before shooting Orion silver. I wait till the following day to de-nub any imperfections on the silver, shoot a final coat of Orion Silver insuring a smooth finish before spraying 4-5 coats of candy.

That Brandy wine looks absolutely amazing! great work!

How long does a paint job like this usually last with let’s say summers being around 85 degrees minimum and 105 degrees maximum

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

@murderous.z33 Any of our paint jobs should last 20 years with no problem, but a quality paint job starts with proper preparation and ends with the owner’s care. I currently have two customer’s motorcycles I painted in 2001 that are still in prestine condition. Sunlight and sand are the most destructive elements that can destroy a finish, so keeping a vehicle in a garage as well as keeping it clean will definitely extend the lifetime of a paint job.

@@user-ns8nv9em8w thank you for the reply! Currently debating having my widebody 350z painted in this color but some people were telling me that candy paints don’t usually last long so thought I’d ask a professional myself 👌🏻

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

@@DreamsWithImpact For a vehicle application, look into candy Vinyl wraps using 3M products. Way less expensive and you easier to repair if you get a rock chip

[@DreamsWithImpact]

@@user-ns8nv9em8w huge thanks for the advice! I’m probably going to send it to a body shop to perfect any dents or gaps before I get it wrapped!

[@bluesparky727]

How many coats of the candy did you do and how many oz’s of candy did you use gonna spray my 2500 Chevy this color need a rough estimate of how much to order also which silver base did you use

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Kyle Talcott: your going to need a gallon to a gallon and a half of Silver for your base coat. Metallic s require additional spray passes to eliminate and “tiger striping” you’ll also want to use a grey sealer to get the best coverage of your silver base coat. 4-6 coats of candy will be necessary to achieve the desired color. HOK candy is a 2:1:1 mixing ratio. To be on the safe side and not run out of material, I would purchase 6 quarts of candy apple red. You can return the any unopened product you don’t use back to the paint supply shop. One gallon of UC35 clear coat should allow you to spray 4 coats of clear coat before cutting and buffing.

Nice paint job! Quick question if u wanted to add more flake at which point will you need to add it to??

[@ToddtheExploder]

WOW! Absolutely STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL!

[@gabrielrodriguez8383]

Great job looks very nice

[@alexisaceves101]

Painting a 1952 F1 that color how much paint should I buy ??

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Alexis Aceved: at least a gallon of base coat, a gallon of candy top coat and a gallon of clear to complete the job. House of Kolor sells their products in quarts. It’s not a bad idea to purchase an extra quart of base and candy just to be on the safe side. You can always return what you don’t use.

[@jesusserna9995]

How many coats of candy did you apply?

[@tamada6086]

Im sure it looks waaay better in person. That silver looks nice

[@drugdealer4357]

Yo Amazing work Nice colours on that bike Great Video BY

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Drug dealer Thank you for the positive comment. Greatly appreciated

[@BigPlaneFixer]

This is the exact color I was thinking of painting my bike!!! End result looks amazing!!! Awesome job!!!

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Shaun Morin I’m a big fan of Brandywine candy as well. It looks even better with a silver mini flake over the Orion Silver basecoat

[@slayer04031974]

What about flat white or gold base? Just wondering if white or gold would look deeper and less brown in low light?

[@559bass5]

This came out hella nice what paint gun do you use?

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Evil Sider: I spray with Iwata LPH 400 and LPH400 LVX 1.3mm

[@kosmicexelixis9161]

Great Candy Colour from House of Colour.Almost goes to the chrome candy side...its very bright.That's a great candy

[@Twin_Flyer]

Stunning!! I know what color mine will eventually get now!!!!

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Bill Skoros I’d love to see you bike when it’s done

[@alvinray4763]

Looks good man. Is that the LPH400 LVX? With the orange cap I been trying to find a good base gun

[@slickrickjones]

Dude, I’m wanting to use this exact color. I’ve painted a couple cars and still learning. How do you match the paint back exactly on Kandy cars that have been scratched? That’s my only concern. Thanks bro! Your work is excellent!

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Derrick Gates Thank you for the awesome compliments. I always document sealer color, number of coats of base coat, number of coats of candy, and air pressure I used for the job which is usually alway 20-22psi

[@slickrickjones]

RUSHBIKESdotCOM okay gotcha. I’m so wanting to try this color!

[@slickrickjones]

RUSHBIKESdotCOM hey, hey! We got the trim done with Brandywine and OMG, I love it!

[@danvandyke3299]

i thought kandy you just sprayed on - whAT DID YOU MIX THAT kandy paint with?

[@danvandyke3299]

i see - a catalyst and a reducer - can i use the same catalyst and reducer i use for the clear?

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Dan VanDyke When mixing House of Kolor products, clear coat uses a catalyst called “KU150” and House of Kolor UK Kandies use a catalyst called “KU100” mixing ratios for House of Kolor Clear and House of Kolor Kandy is 2:1:1

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Dan VanDyke I used House of Kolor KU100 catalyst for the Kandy

Superb job guys

Nice job....

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Grant 7 Paints & Coatings thank you. I appreciate the compliments

[@dirtyred9376]

What about the cosmic chrome as base coat and then drop the brandywine? Not base coat but under the base coat.

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Cosmic chrome under any Kandy produces a Christmas bulb light effect. It’s a very unique and attractive combination but in my opinion best used on futuristic canvases. Ferraris, Lambos, super cars etc.I’ll do a video on Cosmic Chrome and Kandy soon.👊🏽😎

[@dirtyred9376]

I'm asking your thoughts on it but go with a gold base

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Dirty Red I personally like the illumination in the sun from silver base coats vs gold base coats. The colors are very similar but gold bases tend to create an orange illumination on convex curves in the sun. I also think choosing the size of metallics in the base coat is just as important as the color you choose and that all depends on what the canvas is. If you like fast effect transitions then a kosmic krome or a fine base metallic is a great option. If you like a sparkle and slower effect transition, then a flake or heavier metallic lures or mesmerizes the eyes. What are you thinking of painting with this color combination?

[@Farmer2492]

Hi fantastic video one of the best on KZbin I was wondering is there a paint code for the color or how do I get the exact color when I go to paint shop, also what base coat do I use and is it a hard color to spray I have sprayed a couple of cars in Acrylic before thank you

[@user-ns8nv9em8w]

Farmer2492 For this project, I used House of Kolor Orion Silver (BC02-base coat) and House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red (UK11-top coat) to achieve this color. Shooting candies takes years to perfect due to having to spray so may wet coats without getting any runs. It all comes down to attention to detail, proper technique, and patience while sticking to your flash times.
