Don't make this rookie mistake 🤦🏽‍♂️ 

Yeah man, this is why i watch you brother. The idea of clear base as a sealer is damn genius my man 😊. Gotta do that in the future, thnaks for that. My prepper has hands like George Foreman man, heaviest hands in prep for sure! So many additional blend panels that have been done that i could possibly save now, Cheers Trigger 🎉

Triggerman appreciate you showing the tricks and the lessons learned. I am old enough to remember Herman, Lurch and Gomer!

Yes we used to use our bare hands wipe off any dust particles,, however we did our hands lightly over the surface

I like the tips and tricks ,you keep it 100 . It’s very educational encouraging. I think the rookie mistake is to much reducer in the clear

Triggerman great video, I am learning a lot from your videos. I appreciate that you show the mistakes and how to correct them, on tv they make it look perfect like no mistakes ever happen. The Munsters is one of my favorite shows. I think you either use a fast or medium reducer instead of the slow for the clear, so its not flowing like it should. Thanks God Bless Triggerman.

😂😂😂😂🤛🏾 I be in my glory moment when I eat so you definitely get a pass plus it came out smooth. Definitely remember the matchstick game too. Your A game is Indisputable Triggerman have a great weekend. 👍🏽🏁🏁🏁another win!

Another great video Triggerman, we all have them rookie moments from time to time and I’m vertically challenged to see I know exactly what you mean when painting those hoods and roofs😂

Trig you need arms like a gibbon to do them hoods 🤣🤣

Triggerman, I remember touch up tricks. Still use them. Enjoying the channel, great information!

Great video! Agreed ambidextrous painting is a great skill to have

Nice work I'm a new subscriber stumbled across your video I'm a shorter painter also we just have to come up with things and go with the flow hood and roof are the enemy for us LOL

😯thanks for the tip your good you lol

Yeah that's what we used to do paper matchstick, in customers would ask how to touch up, we told them matchstick, the torn end..

I use wooden toothpicks for touchups they work great with that pinpoint........

When you first started I seen the pigment in the clear which usually I dont so my opinion was in the reducer.

As far as temp you are spraying in a crossflow door filter booth. I've experienced 115 + temps spraying in a downdraft with a roof intake. The roof intakes really get heated up. Birmingham Alabama here

I'm also vertically challenged, paint my hoods just as you did lol

Hey Trigger Follow up on the Apollo turbine system and 7700 gun for auto paint. Here's what I found out round one. 1.0 tip for base. Had Nason metallic med. blue Jeep color. Laid down base slick but slower. I know Trigger likes fast, but this wasn't fast the way I had the gun set up. Constant consistent air delivery. Low psi high cfm. Got zero dust specs(a first for me) the low psi wasn't stirring up the air and blowing dust around. Metallics even. Nice dull sheen. Smooth. No pops. Slow reducer with the turbine. Clear coat. Hardly any nibs. Got sum texture in areas that i have to cut n buff. Was playing with settings. Couple runs when i moved in too close. Next time prolly not use high solid clear. Try thinner coats. Second round added a splash of slow reducer. Had med activator. Was hot. Needed slow. Final thoughts: I love the clean result. Love the base. Love the low overspray. I don't mind working the paint slower to get results. I need to try a different clear and slow activator. (0.8 tip as recommended) See if I can get less peel. But i'm used to the cut n buff routine. I'm not any kind of video producer, but I do have a short video showing the base coat. 40 seconds maybe. Just a quick walk around the old Jeep. Turbine does have advantages to a garage painter or mobile guy. Got to work out the clear coat so I can buff less. I noticed I had a Lot of paint left and clear. So the material was going on the car. Not a lot of waste. Thumbs up for me and how I have to work. Sorry about the long comment...

I have definitely had that happen, clear was hardening up in the gun for and was spraying all stringy and throwing chucks out into my clear coat, I never mix my clear while doing basecoat any more or stick it in warm water, I mix and spray straight away

Love every video man. Would love to see you use like a 20 gallon compressor with the vevor gun to do a whole car respray.

Awesome 👍👍💲💲💲

These mistakes happen to the best of us TriggerMan so don't go beating yourself up over it brother in fact I'm proud of you for putting the video up as a lot of painters only show us the good stuff but not you man you say it as it is👏👏🙏👍John UK

Yes sir the match stick been there

Nice work

At my work we have ladders that have a little platform at the top and wheels. So you can push them around and then when you stand on them they lock down. Mine be worth getting a 4ft one for tall jobs

Clear is drying up in the gun!

Clear started to harden up? I’ve done that with sealer

Nice recovery- that's why your the TriggerMan

Was it your gun regulator not open all the way versus the hose/dial regulator?

I’m with you on being vertically challenged to, man! Lol! What line of products are you refinishing with?

WELL DANG, What was u eatin Trigga?? 🤷 boooooyy it must've been summn good to make u forget bout da job. 🤣😂. TriggerMan ALWAYS keeps it 💯

This was happen to me with the base coat and another time with bmw black 2, I had painted the rear bumper and after the fender at 30 degrees, the paint was starting to harden in my gun.....

Good tips on being ambidextrous with the gun . You got high humidity in your spot also folks got to factor that in .

Fast reducer on a HOT AZZ day you get dust ! lol

This happened to me , best thing I can say is don’t mix anything until you are ready to spray it

No activator or reducer in a high solid clear💪🏽

What product is the clear base coat? Appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience!

Definitely going to 2000 my cars before last coat knock nubs off thanks for tip bro

That temp is crazy.

Triggerman another great video. wanted to ask you something i have never painter a car but i decided to see if i could do it i made a stupid mistake sprayed base coat instead of mixing reducer i mixed hardener and it's been 3 days the paint dried most of the places but it is still tacie. Any feedback what can i do thanks.

💥👍🏼

I thought the color blender needed the reducer…duly noted!!!

What's ur gun setting and tip?

Added activator twice?

Set to long or not mix right

Had that happen to all slow activation not the same apparently

Video ain't over and still trying to figure it out 😂😂😂

What's wrong? The diffuser on the fluid tip has clear build up. Take a razor blade and clean those slits

Do you guys have Black or white primer?

You bet I know the old matchstick trick bro!

Hmm id say hot in the both and the clear started to set up early

You need some Bootys Collins plate forms shoes you remember him 👍

Reducer instead of activator??

W 400 lv4 #1 forever

I think you mixed the clear wrong or not at all. My best guess

reducer to fast- temps to high

L I K E 👍👍👍👍👍💯💢💯💢💯 🤩🤩🤩

Some clears on them hot days will get thick on you quick

Yea that's me am 6"3 bro 😂😂😂

No reducer

Accidentally put fast activator?too much accelerator?

You forgot to pray to the paint Gods before you started spraying.

Yo TriggerMan, I'm watching this clip for the 1st time and my guess is that you weren't using the rt tip possibly? Nevertheless, I'm staying to the end to find out so don't repeat the mistake. Harlem Ray watching 4ever.

I think your clear was drying on your cup 😂

You didn't put any reducer in the clear 😅omg

No reducer?

You know one time I put everything together in the clear, but didn’t mix it and start spraying manI got me a big old run!!!!!! man

paint with dry wall stilts- ha haa

Glad you changed guns before doing the hood

The best touch up brush is take a cigarette butt, (which I hate!) anyhow, Peel the paper off and cut an 1/8 off with a razor blade, and Maaaaannnn, No BS, Those nasty ass things are only good for 1 thing, and that’s making a DAYUM GOOD TOUCH UP BRUSH…. Try it sometime!!!

Ez dabbers

Before I watch the end ima say you was spraying clear basecoat instead of the actual clearcoat or maybe you mixed the two products together used the clear base with clearcoat hardner or something like that. Edit oh damn I was wrong. Lol bro you ate after you mixed clear? Nah cant do that 😂 still looks good those are the guns I use too not the WS though the LPH I tried the WS went right back to LPH.

I think your air valve on the bottom of the gun was closed some

Sorry to pick on ya but I've painted 50 plus years I can do that in my sleep you should start from the center of the hood to you plus a whole lot more rookie mistakes

WRONG ACTIVATOR

I think the nidel was dretey

Rookie mistake Trigger???????? UNSUBSCRIBE!!!!!!😂😂😂😂. Professionals make mistakes everyday B. We all human. Only thing perfect is the man upstairs. Another great video. Never thought bout using wet bed as a clear sealer👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. Blessings bro

To much hardener

I’ll tell you what’s wrong. You didn’t use the Vevor

How tall is tigger man. Does trigger man have a trigger wife?

It would just be heavy on your dam feet bro

That's what I talking about. Get a gun, get r dunn!!

Gun wasn't clean
