Wet Sanding the E30 & Picking the PPF Color!

[@Dewree69]

Glad you tried the plastic bag tip! It really sounds absolutely stupid, until you try it. Hope I didn't add 24 episodes to this series! Wouldn't mind watching that many, though ♥

[@HunterDirection]

@@Dewree69 haha your suggestion was insanely cool! I seriously appreciate it and it really was crazy when I tried it 🤣

[@IntrepidRacer13]

It is crazy that it works, but also once you start thinking about it it starts to make sense. I might be totally wrong here, but my guess would be that there's two parts to how it works. The first part is that there is a higher friction coefficient between the plastic and the paint surface than there is between skin and the paint surface, so it's easier for the bag to get caught on even small imperfections. The second part is the texture of the plastic bag is much rougher than the paint surface, so as the bag gets caught on imperfections in the paint, the skin keeps moves along the bag, and now rather than feeling the paint surface it's actually feeling the surface of the plastic. If the paint surface is "perfectly" flat, then the bag doesn't get caught on anything, so the skin stays in the same position relative to the bag, so the texture it feels never changes. It's only once the bag gets caught on any imperfection and the skin changes position relative to the bag that it feels the changes in texture within the bag itself.

i am glad you talked your self out of grey, great progress.

Hot coffee, a beautiful Sunday morning and a new Hunter video. Good day.

[@Gunther3000]

Impressive work - and I am not only talking about the car but especially the filming and editing :) keep up the great work! I hope your channels grows 100 fold, because with that kind of quality, it sure ahould!

[@DustySteel]

@@Gunther3000 oh it will!!😎👍

[@saekabura]

Just as a finishing touch to get it all an even finish. Use a scotch Brite green scouring pad and some JIF soap. Give the car a once over as if you are washing the car with it. It'll get rid of any grime and spots you missed. And end product will be EVEN smoother with like 15mins of effort

[@FrancoisProjects]

The teaser 😍 👌

[@HunterDirection]

@@FrancoisProjects It means a lot to me that you're excited

[@DekadentGarage]

I appreciate all the different angles and shots you take...just started making videos myself and I can't imagine how long it takes you to make this!

[@DustySteel]

@@DekadentGarage guys editing skills are top notch for sure!!

[@trevormcculloch5011]

Awesome ending. Thanks. Great show.

[@DustySteel]

@@trevormcculloch5011 absolutely agreed!👍

[@jackbjack]

Oh I was hoping for the orange… dang it …but the teaser put the smile back on my face.

[@HunterDirection]

@@jackbjack I really love the orange. And I think an orange BMW is definitely in my future someday. I just don't really know if I would like opening the door and seeing the orange next to the blue green 😅 and I'm glad you're excited for the teaser. That project is by far and away my most ambitious thing I've ever done 😅

[@jackbjack]

@@HunterDirection Yeah… the green… I get it. It would keep me up at night as well.😉

Every Friday I get exited for Saturday morning to see your new video

[@ncc74656m]

That was a great choice process, and I'm glad you knuckled down and stuck with the plan to do the prep work right. To my mind the choice would've been obvious, but in this kind of thing I am not exactly the adventurous sort, so here's hoping you love what you do no matter what. Can't wait for that double feature!

[@samGD3]

Cant wait for the jade install!

My coworker and I talked about the plastic bag step. We were confused. Thanks for clearing that all up.

[@Carsofminnesota]

You should do a m50 swap

[@HunterDirection]

@@Carsofminnesota that would be pretty fun! If the m20 blows up maybe haha. I'd like an e36 sometime too so I'd want to make sure they feel different haha
