Nice paint job. One question. What is that at the end of the wooden mix stick that you used to mix the silver paint with? Is there a purpose for that? Just curious?
Walking the whole side and drawing straight lines. Real talent. If you have never painted a car before. You will never understand the talent you are watching here.
Man Gritt you just gave me a vision. My godmother has the same car sitting in the yard and I never thought about getting it and laying some paint down on that thang. We use to call it ugly when we were kids not knowing that thang was a sleeper!! You did that
Hey,I have been a pro bodyman and painter for 40+ yearand I gotta tell you that is the MOST BEAUTIFUL freakin paint job/color I have ever seen .much respect
No positive air ventilation all that overspray hanging in the air that car will have to be cut and buffed a shit ton of times. All the waves in the panels that can be seen in the lights in the walk around either show shitty body work or way to heavy with the clear. If you think this is the most beautiful id hate to see what you think is the worst. Plus what about no door jams no gaps no underside of hood or decklid. 😂😂
33 yrs painter here, looks excellent with the room ur spraying, I recommend fans to get the overspray out , if u spray that good , imagine if u could actually see the panel without all the overspray when ur painting. Excellent job sir
Until you open a door, hood or trunk and see the lines. Man I've seen much nicer jobs come out of a house garage, dont let the quality of the paint itself fool you on the low quality of the user. Also go back and watch as they pan across the body, things got waves like the Pacific.
I am not a fan of the outrageous paint jobs. This is more to my style and it is absolutely Stunning!!! You showed just how talented you are as a painter who can do it all. My hat is off to you sir.
I see so many ppl talking about how bad of a job this and that, safety gear this and that, I do agree with safety but why come in here and comment so negative, just drop some gems off on what he can do for safety and health, and better paint jobs, should be constructive criticism not destructive, and I looked at some of the really negative guys talking and they don't have not one post on their own page, come on ppl, help the dude out, guarantee he will listen to helpful advice giving as suggestions rather than bashing, matter of fact post some of your own projects on your page...
All the people leaving negative comments are just jealous haters bro. They probably drive some piece of crap bucket of bolts that doesn't even look 10% as good as this so they bash others to make themselves feel good. Just remember if you got hate on you for no reason you're doing good for yourself.😄
I've been an automotive painter since 1974 and can say you did a great job. No runs, drips or orange peel. my only negative comment would be, you really need a paint suite lol. Keep up the good work !
@montyklaus7223 professional spraypainters don't spray chemicals with shorts on,there's a reason why spraypainters wear tyvek suits,gloves along with respirators. People forget skin is the largest organ in the human body,it is like a sponge when it comes to substances.
You are extremely talented. I have an Old 74 Cutlass Oldsmobile that I want to fix up and paint, but i don't know if I can do it from a wheelchair. What do you think?
The guy has more talent in one finger than all the haters on here have living in this guys shadow. They need to pick up their purple Harbor Freight guns and " Get out there and paint some shit" as "The Gunman" says.
We all have different techniques! Myself I like the first coat to be a dusting. For bonding my following coats better! But this guys results look great, bet it’s even better outside! Every painter knows to show them outside’ lights show everything! Knowing your area is a must! I can lay down beautiful clean paint in Indiana,spray in mourning! With dew in mourning,no dust in air,bugs aren’t out until? 9-10 in mourning. So here,be spraying by 7,and wet the floor a little! Sprayed in Arizona, didn’t turn out as good! Guy was afraid of overspray in his garage,too many fans dryed paint out too fast! So I’d rather have overspray,last coat I’d give it a few extra minutes and reduce more to melt that last coat! Just suggestions, nice looking car!
Beautiful work Brother. Look after your body and brain. I sprayed for 20 years and after cleaning my gun out one day I felt something going up my optic nerve and into my brain. After that I had a 5 second memory and had to write down my conversations so I could remember what I was talking about. Thinners melts paint and also brain cells. Take care and look after yourself. Wear a suit and invest in a stellar extractor fan. 😇
I keep painting at home with 2k and hardly ever wear a mask,lately iv been out of breath n getting worried, I know it's a bit late but iv brought a decent mask,why do we take chances with health, nice job, looks great
True Gritt, your paint skills are great. If you need paint suits, masks, paint materials, ventilation, let me know as my friend owns S.P.I. coatings and other Vets in business. Wet your floor as a suggestion to inhibit dust particles. I am in Atlanta and willing to lend a hand. C.J. w/ A.R.T. Atlanta.
I would be dancing to if I could paint that good, but he was probably pretty high off of all the fumes could probably use a few more fans on that paint booth😅
Let’s get it Cattt!! 😂 🙌🏽 Top level painter on the grind right here! Much respect bro, keep spraying them bangers! 🎨 Might be my fav youve painted that I’ve seen so far 👍🏽
Lol. Mavrick was one of Fords worst nightmares. Reason why it was built only for a couple years. Heck the pinto was built longer. That car you could buy for $50 just a cpl years old.
@@edgemonsiteworksllc3369 I didn't say anything about it being good out of the factory, selling good or not, etc. That being said, it wasn't a bad car so I don't really know where you get that. It was built for 7 yrs vs the Pinto's 10. The Pinto was a bit more efficient with a hatchback and got updates whereas they didn't put a lot of umph into marketing the Maverick. The Maverick is basically a mini old school Mustang whereas the Pinto wasn't, even though it did share underpinnings with the Mustang II (also not a bad car). And $50 for a 2 yr old car? Show me where the man with the Maverick touched you. 🤣
WOW you made that look easy. That looks awesome. That color would look great on a 1947 Chevy pickup that I’ve been working on for a while. Thanks for sharing !
Gotta get some proper PPE brother, the solvents in paint will leech through your skin and eventually cause nerve damage. Damn good job on this paint job.
Brilliant job, Get a kick ass fan, get/make a duct for it, at back of booth duct the dirty air thru a huge p-trap, make it yourself out of 6 or 8 inch pvc thick wall pipes, with a inspection hatch, put water and some dishwasher liquid, soapy is better to draw the excess overspray from the bubbles and periodic replacement of the dirty water. This saves using rock wool or fibreglass clouds to clean the dirty air. The front door will get 2 2foot by 2 foot holes, a steel or aluminium frame wire mesh, a couple of rods to keep the filter material rigid, think of that paper that car air filters are made of, or perhaps sponges, but definitely keep insects and dust out. EVERY SINGLE gap in your booth must be sealed air tight, I even use metal shelves and framing to hang a suspended ceiling from rafters, plus silicone to seal the roof. Lighting needs glass covers so that the overspray can be scraped off periodically with a razor sharp blade, plastic covers suck. Lots and lots of fluorescent lights or leds on every wall and ceiling. The ultimate luxury is a very thin puddle covering the entire floor, just don't splash around when you spray. Then you need rugby boots or Japanese wood sandals. People would mock you initially and afterwards they would all start doing it !
I agree he would benefit if he had proper ventilation not only for his health but his artwork in my opinion this man was born with a gift I would hire him in a minute!
Great finish on the car. But for his health a water slide filter would be a good idea. Don't want to damage his lungs 🫁 for his art. Love the colours and glaze.
Bro is hammering on the clear! That color is unreal, like from another planet. Jaw dropping, beautiful. Maybe an air fed full face mask, before you start having issues would be a thing. If you're shooting anything that's "2K" you need better air - it works like lead poisoning, where at first it's all cool, but the exposure is adding up every time, and it doesn't go away, until one day bam! You got issues. I'd hate to see anything get in the way of that talent, your work is smooth.
2k here in the UK is now apparently all water based now. Not sure what it is in the US. Its about 1/2 as durable too. It syill contains isocyanes though so still need proper masks but its solvent free.
