Tip for you and any viewers to your channel. Whenever I do stripes and two tone paint in this case after I masked the white I would have sealed the masked edge I personally well better said I would seal the masked white edge with white paint. Waited for it to dry and shot the green. This for me prevents second color bleed by sealing the edge with the masked color first this works well for me, I hope someone can be helped by this tip. Kudos on the great videos your techniques seem to work great for you I wasn't trying to nitpick your process whatsoever I hope you don't take it that way. Thank you for the time and effort involved in making these videos and sharing them with all of us keep up the great work brother.

Started with excitement at the thought of a quad cab but swiftly plummeted to disappointment when I realised it was going to be what in my neck of the woods we call a dual cab or twin cab. I'd been thinking of a super extended stretched job with four cabs and how amazing that would be. In the end though I was right up there again at incredibly impressed at what you made and am now champing at the bit waiting for the next extraordinary project.

There's a channel that tests various products, adhesives, silicones, oils, lawn car products, and he recently did silicone caulk. Just for fun he threw in JB weld, it was so strong that it made the food fail every times before the JB weld did, and was probably 5 to 10 times stronger than all the other products at joining metal. JB weld is crazy good stuff.
