That guy definitely takes a pride in his work 💪 great to see that in a young man in these times 💪💪💪

[@1Ocqueoc]

In all my years, I don't think I've ever seen anyone get so excited about a tractor hood. Kap - you do realize that now you will have to have the front window tinted DARK, so you are not blinded by the glare from the sun?

[@kapperoutdoors]

ha ha, always one in the crowd!! This stuff IS exciting man!

[@fralinsandfriends]

Shined up like a mirror. 😀👋

[@lynneperg6853]

Wow, the difference is amazing. It looks brand new.

[@kapperoutdoors]

I know! That thing will look awesome when its done! thanks.

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

What a difference!

[@thomaswright6250]

The old tractor is going to look awesome Capper

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yes it is! Can't wait!

[@richardbohlingsr3490]

Big improvement in shine on the hood. Looks like a good investment to me.

[@hartleyhomesteadmichigan6041]

Looking good !

[@alvinguy567]

Wet sand with 1000 grit then 2000 then 3000 then buff with good cleaner wax or glaze. Love your videos!

[@billsmith9610]

If there is enough paint. But on a tractor i would just go from 1000 to 1500 and hit it with wool and heavy compound and then a waffle with micro compound to then go to glaze. I never liked the buffers like he is using.

[@ThePenTheSword]

2000 and up is a waste of time. I just use 1000 and/or 1200-1500 and buff with ultra cut compound and then polish. Shines right up and stays that way for a year. Same technique for faded headlights.

[@AllaroundNbackagain]

Nice work. I’ll bring ours down soon!!!

[@kapperoutdoors]

LOL, you might not get the 'cheap' labor rate though!

[@jth030966]

Thats turning out really good im going to have to try that stuff out on my tractor's there both sun faded about like that

[@kapperoutdoors]

Oh man, I'm sure you can bring some life back to it!

[@photocontrol]

Coming along very nice! Good job Matt!!

[@NichollsSense]

Doesn’t matter how you do it as long as you DO it. Looks great Kapp

[@kapperoutdoors]

Roger that, thank you. This stuff is more fun than buying something new! lol

[@cst270]

Looks great!

[@Sam-nl6fr]

Seriously impressive

[@MySliceOfHeavenoutdoors]

going to look good Kapper

[@doug9418]

Magatron 2.0 is on the rise. Thanks for the video, well done. 🇺🇸 God bless you and your family have a wonderful day 🇺🇸

[@kapperoutdoors]

Thank you we appreciate it, God Bless.

[@houndsmanone4563]

That looks super! That's a lot of work but the right components, with the right tools, done by the right guy gets the right finish. Tremendous job, Matt. I think I'd hit Kapper up for another buffing tool. One for applying the ingredients and one for waxing/buffing (ha). Don't tell Kapper I said that. Oops, I think Kapper can see this comment. LoL Enjoyed a full watch 👀.

[@kapperoutdoors]

ha ha Jarhead! Yeah, this is more exciting than buying a new tractor!

[@jevans8]

I have a 2005 4720 and 8620 backhoe that was faded like this as well. I ended up just pulling the entire tractor apart and repainting the entire thing.

[@kapperoutdoors]

I'm sure it looked great, but a ton of work no doubt!

[@Piaphamu]

I want that green tool box. LOL

[@jamesharless5357]

Nice!!!

[@clarkwheeler8764]

Curtis my man, Kapper Enterprises is in partnership with a certain other party (the Clark-in-ator) on the Kentucky side of the river. Once that like new Branson crosses the Ohio, you are a dollar late and a dollar short. Hate your luck but that's the way the cookie crumbles, and the tractor rolls. Sometime chicken, sometimes feathers. lol

[@curtisrogerslandbroker]

clark wheeler - but I’m the wolf and i eat the chicken and the feathers...lol... it will make you a nice tractor... Matt is getting it all shined up

[@kapperoutdoors]

You're right Clark in ator! My offer still stand for you to drive it over the road to your farm to use it! Might be worth that 15 mile ride now! LOL smh :)

[@gmoncrieff]

Given how expensive tractors are why don't manufacturers wrap the painted parts in PPF?

[@padraigdowling8312]

Gary Moncrieff paint will still fade ppf only prevents stone chips and stuff like that the best way is to just keep them waxed

[@everythingoutdoors5356]

What chemicals were you using?

[@boatbuilder1954]

The only product I heard you mention was the vsf and a medium rubbing compound what else did he use ?

[@kapperoutdoors]

This was awhile ago so I don't recall. I think my main point was the buffing process regardless of which compound you use.

[@Chris_L034]

think i would have started and finished with a clay bar.

[@jussi7358]

Finished with a claybar? Can i wonder why?

[@garycrumrine9538]

Joe, what is the comparable "Modern" model Branson tractor that is made today?

[@kapperoutdoors]

No sure, I think they did away with that one. They now have a 55 hp hydro cab, and then the 7845c which I have. I think the 7845c is the new and improved version of this one...

[@scottsime5197]

Matt is using way to much pressure with his left hand. You don't push down on the buffer. You let the buffer do the work.. That definitely needs color sanding it's too faded to buff out alone.. I know Matt's trying but tell him to not apply pressure and to wet sand it a whole less work and new results..

[@ThePenTheSword]

+1 let the buffer do the work!

[@doug9418]

Hey this one is for Matt, your a workaholic and I really like the new ways your showing us from your own style and experience. #1. Is Matt making his customer satisfaction, sure looks like it to me. God Bless 🇺🇸

[@doug9418]

Lickide slit, are you a real trucker?

[@ccswede]

Cataclysm Calls & Outdoor Co. is that paint or colored polycarbonate? John Deere hoods Are colored polycarbonate. A proprietary blend. Had to plastic weld our hood after my son dropped a limb on the hood.

[@scottsime5197]

Doug Bucher yes since 86 I have been

[@joseramirez2673]

His arm speed to fast and he should try smaller areas

[@jakeschisler7525]

Liquid wax over paste because each time you touch wax inside can the contaminates go back into the wax. Kapper since you like spending money then all your subscribers would take a nice kit from The Chemical Guys

[@WalkerOutdoors]

That's going to look like new

[@kapperoutdoors]

Too bad we can't fix ourselves up like that! lol
