Good job big fella, good start to the new venture, that paintwork you done is the best bit on the car 😂👍🏻 Looking forward of more videos to come 👌👊👍🏻

Great looking outcome. Very professional. It will only get more streamlined as you go. A promising start one might say. Stay safe, Cheers 👍🏽🙂

Nice of you to take us on the road with ya, I can live the dream through you 🤣🤣 Van looks great with all the gfx on 👍👍 So hard getting a painting job round here 😣

That looked an absolutely brill finish. Learning curve top man ...

Great job for your first time out. Keep up the great work and good luck 👊

Hi Grant. Thanks for letting us all in, on your first outdoor experience. I don't think many others would. But your a "Warts and All" type of guy. Great Job and see you in the next one. 👍👍👍👍

Cracking result considering the conditions you were working in and on! How you managed to obtain that standard was fantastic. Onto the next! ✊🚗👍

Smashing job mate, u make it look easy, always a interesting watch, keep up the good work 👍

Superb.👌🏻. Great honest video. Look forward to seeing loads more👍🏻

Great video and impressive job, sure your smash this new venture. Don't under estimate how far doing those little extras can generate repeat and word and mouth business. Quality painters aren't easy to find.

That's a bloody good colour match Grant. Nice finish. Top job bud. Good luck in your new venture

brilliant job,the lighting and extractor fan seems much 😀 ,i put an old non fluffy curtain i buy from hospice shops round wheels,these dont flap in the wind,if you ever need to get those number plates off then some good mole grips fasten up on the plastic round the corroded screws and can be usually removed with no issues,great content👍 thanks for doing these i appreciate them as much as everyone

Nice job and bet you will come across more cars like this. We you will have the draw the line, on how far you go.

Smashed it Grant Another great job Always doesn’t turn out the way you want Learning curve working mobile Many more great jobs to come Love your channel ❤️👍

Excellent job matey, I'm sure you will make a good living from the smart repairs. Top man.👍🙂

Well done on your first day grant. Your going to smash it mate. 💪

Nice one grant 👊 top Job mate the speed will come in time mate your just a perfectionist with what you do Onwards and upwards 👍

Well done mate ! So strange not to see you in the booth ! Looking forward to more videos

Brilliant job Grant as always. There’s nothing you could do about them problems. You just went with it, Top Man 👍

Great job you deserve a break hope all goes well in the new venture

First job on the new venture is always going to be scary fella but to be fair you took it in your stride and got it nicely done, I will say that it was cheap and being your a good hearted bloke and went the extra mile for them speaks volumes. Take care mate.

What a legend of a first car out on the road 😛 really good job and colour match. Can’t wait for more.

Hello Grant,first job and mobile and you done brilliant work on that Agila to how it was,I used to own one in red and it's still going 😀.

Like you said pal… swings and roundabouts . It all works out in the end . No point getting stressed over it . It is what it is👍

Hi grant , first day is always going to be trial and error, as you said , you have to take the good with the bad . Brilliant first look at life on the road , things will get better and less challenging . Keep ure head up , better jobs are just round the corner and we will see u blasting through ure work and we will be saying more of your cheery self . Keep up the good work , remember , the rear view mirror is for looking at the past and the front windscreen is for looking at the future of opertunities . Stay safe and keep well big chap 💪💪💪💪👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻💙💙💙💙

Great video with great results, was you pleased with your new paint mixing system, the match looked so good..

Corner is now best part of the car, well done for being so conscientious. It's a learning process to work on driveways, treat the first few jobs as getting paid to learn again! Managing customer expectations vs assessing the job on the quote is a bit different to being in a workshop. Stick to your prices though, you don't negotiate with Tesco for your weekly shop do you? Then again everyone needs to put food on the table. Great to see the first job, keep up the great work.

Having been a building engineer for just shy of 30 years I set up on my own recently, like you first job nightmare and had a few since but overall it’s great spent a fortune on kit and insurance and best bit of it cost 26 quid - good luck, subscribed I can’t do bodywork to save my life so watching you do these repairs outside is amazing.

Lovely finish on the paint work Grant, Remember price quoted is subject to striping.👍

Congratulations on the first job brother 💪 take the rough with the smooth & it’ll balance out in the end. Top class job 👍

Top work matey,that looked champion 👍👍👍

You picked a belter for your first one...are you no a bit worried about the overspray coming back onto your van tho...Cracking job big man.💪💪💪

Spot on! This content is gonna be good!

Looks like you did a cracking job for the budget. You can understand someone wanting to add a bit of value and prepare for a sale without major restoration. As you say, if you walk away, what will you fit in the time gap. Brave man doing the shorts outside. I like my skinny pins all jeansed up come rain or shine

Love the new content Grant, job looked mint and I'm sure she was well happy with it. Where did you get the metal magnets from they seem a great idea. Look forward to the next video 👊👊👊👊👌👌👌👌

Glad too see your happy now grant smash out those smart repairs jobs a good’ un.. and you always go above and beyond top man 👍🏻

Cracking job Grant onwards & upwards m8 👌🏽👍🏽👍🏽👊🏼

Thumbs up from me Grant thanks for sharing your first day at new school like you say will be swings and roundabouts good luck matey

So happy for you grant.. man just wants to crack on 👍🏻❤️

Smashed it Grant . First one and the nerves out the way.

under the conditions and the car itself. it's hard to polish a turd but you did it so cracking job.

I’m so pleased for you mate! Mobile is the way forward

Cracking job that Grant. That rear quarter is the best looking part of the car now

I guess the first job was always going to be a bit daunting, having to leave the cosy workshop and perform outside one's natural habitat 😂. But seriously, considering state of car and original paint the job came out first class. The colour match was pretty good too. Happy customers spread the word among their friends so you should get plenty of jobs lining up 👍👍

Cracking job, it's all new to you, keep it up.

Great vid mate.....A tip, put a large ground sheet down. If you spill paint on the clients driveway. They will not be happy, and you will be spending hours getting it off. I know been there done that, I now always put aground sheet down. Yes that job should have been $300 all day long. Swings and round about mate. You will love being a mobile painter, it took me 5 years to see the light. Very little overheads...Cheers NZ

Really good to see your first mobile job Grant 👍,like you said,you might come across quite a few jobs like this one you'll have to know when to draw the line on things like that of you might end up doing more than you bargained for ,so don't be selling your self short buddy 👍👊

Best part of the car now mate. Proper job.

Top Quality Job, what an advert for a true honest tradesman, 100% Quality

Good job Grant - baptism of fire that one!. That's a case of the old dog you don't worry about too much and it comes out near perfect!!!. At least the booth extraction is good doing mobile!!. Shame you can't fit a retractable awning to the side of your van you could pull out and fit sides to, or another alternative is an inflatable booth, but would probably waste too much time using that - roll on summer!.

good luck grant with new business onward and up wards grant hope to see you down here in southend soon may need you soon cheers davey southend

Well done fella the new era begins

Adjusting to the weather elements is gonna be challenge Grant ..I’m sure you’ll master it in time. Your kindness with the job was noted..however mate you need to make decent living you’ve put a lot into this venture. Best of luck 👍

I definitely get a paint shop organised for winter mate, maybe do a customer pick up thing, or have a good 6 mths and have winter off.

Haha cracking job mate...got the birds singing for you as well.

Hi Grant you done a good job on the car as it was day one on your new business project I am pleased for you grant all the best to you and your family 😎🔧👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧

You'll find your feet and at the end of the day if the customer's happy that's all that matters! Just a couple of things I noticed and it's no criticism, I just wouldn't want a scam artisit to try their luck!... Get a sign to notify the public that you're working or get a "mind the cable type sign" . You're obviously insured but could help if there's a claim. Lastly, I'd use your company name over the customer reg plates, just to protect the customer and yourself (against fraud etc). Looking forward to the next vid!

Full marks for filming on your first day. I couldn’t be bothered😆 I’d imagine jobs like that will be pretty common and like you say, hopefully there will be the odd easy one thrown in now and again.

Cracking job Grant 👍 yes you did more than necessary but wouldn't expect you to do anything less, as another comment said word will get around and jobs may come in because of that. Best of luck to you 👍👍👍

Great 1st job bud .looked really well. I'm sure you'll doing really well in your new venture.

Wow it seems really strange to see you out in the open air working, although one consistency is your end result, as always it is excellent, good luck with your new mobile business, hope it works well for you sweetheart😊.

What a peach to start you off, the bumper is worth twice the rest of the car now, it came out mint 👍

Superb job Grant really impressed, I think 🤔 you could do with a mobile tent as you know what the British weather is like best regards matey mark from Billericay 🇬🇧😃👍

Nice one Grant it looks fantastic shame you're not in my area the wife's car needs some paint 👍👍

Well done Grant it's just how things go mate i have the same problem with the carpet and upholstery cleaning you think oh it will only be xyz time.. Cracking job anyway looking forward to the next one. From Richard

Hi Grant … it’s great to see someone at work who likes perfection , love it …. I know what you mean about jobs taking longer but there’s no way you’d have done it not to your standard!! All the best , I hope it’s a successful venture for you. Respect .

Great job grant you’ll be fine you just need to get into a routine well done

Great job Grant 👍

Recommendation & a learning experience. All good 👍

that turned out really even going that extra mile counts a lot u never know she might tell other people so you might get more work

Well done grant great job on that 👍

Nice one Grant, you seem to have enjoyed it and it ended up a first class finish. How far do you travel? I’ve got a rear quarter that needs sorting in Romford

Just put it down to being a new start up you sometimes need to do more for less but once your name is going about as being the mobile painter to go for it will pay off. Did you get the fuse sorted for the 12v socket.

Looks spot on 👍👍

I bet the auto trader photos will be all of that corner 😂

Great job , enjoyed the vidio👍

Cracking blend in grant thumbs up m8

I'm flabbergasted mate excellent job 👌👌👌👊👊👊

Hi grant these new style videos are going to be great One question what u do about overspray going on other cars close by the colour was ok but the laquer overspray was loads Might be something to think about Really enjoyed the video mate top fella

It's gonna work out ok, you've got the determination and skills to make it work What's happened to the booth, a lot of money went into building that workshop have you walked away from it all and transfered the lease and the whole contents

Nice work grant all the best with your new venture.

your trouble grant is your generous heart but its a great start so carry on regardless

Thanks for your first smart repair video,obviously you've noticed a few more bits wrong with the bumper so how did you price the job was it by photo or seeing it first in person?yes þhink the next few days are showers so you'll need your gazebo I reacon,as you are a professional and soooo good at what you do will it start to annoy you that you can only do what your payed for like in this case you would have wanted to obviously do the whole bumper but they couldn't afford that?look forward to this journey with you,cheers

Loving your work. Body shop quality even though you are now doing smart repairs. Hope that wasn’t the wife’s hairdryer 😂😂. Onwards and upwards 😀

Grant most corners are £180-£200, it’s easier if you bag it from the front wouldn’t use paper as if the wind gets behind it may hit the painted area. Great job don’t know if you have sides for the gazebo ??? But you will need 1

Well done dude 🙌 👌

Smashed it as usual Grant, so chuffed it's gone the right way for you, hopefully more in control and ultimately more money in your pocket at the end of the week without the horrendous overheads
