Great job! I do own a compressor (a noisy one...) a a spray gun. I'm considering trying out my luck painting! Meanwhile, I have made it a ritual of watching your videos whilst having a beer. Got to stay true to the cause...

@MackieBass 3 года назад

Good man! Well, cheers to you good sir!

@kenlizzio7096 3 года назад

Great job again. Love the turntable plinth. So simple, but gives great access to all areas.

@MackieBass 3 года назад

Agreed! Took me too long to get one, I wish I bought one years ago :)

I'm doing a triumph tank in the summer, want to add some gold pin stripe but I know for a fact I can't do it with a brush ha so I'll cheat and spray the tank gold first,if that doesn't go well I'll start over and spray the gold last ;)

Awesome, keep them coming! I have some painting coming up so this all great stuff. Still not sure about stepping up to a proper gun but I really need to make that leap of faith!

@MackieBass 3 года назад

Go for it. Its really not that complicated, and it does make it cheaper in the long run.

@MotoMirius 3 года назад

@@MackieBass Do you have any recommended suppliers, or do you just go for the best deal?

@MackieBass 3 года назад

Well, not really. Put it this way - I own the expensive Iwata, and not so expensive Fast Mover (premuim range) I don't see a difference in the outcome of paint job. I stick with the LVLP guns to go with the small compressor and reduce overspray. Other than that - go practice :)

@@MackieBass how much do you? Is it generally sheeting do you have ventilation as well as I saw you use 2k

@daveco1270 2 года назад

Looks great. Why did you only do that grey 1/8th inch line on the back of the tank, from the knee pad backwards? I'd assume you'd put that line anywhere the blue and white meet ...as long as it's visible with badges and tank pads on.

@MackieBass Год назад

Not visible. Covered by the badges and the seat.

@@JohnSmith-ih1ic cool. Use red oxide primer. This way if you go through the black it will look like rust already. Nice one.

nice job! how to do handle with dust in your shop?would be great to see to spraying itself ;)

@MackieBass 3 года назад

I keep it clean, or at least I try to. It's doable :)

@daveco1270 2 года назад

How long do you have to let the white coat dry before putting the tape on it for the next step?

@MackieBass Год назад

24hrs I'd say...depending on paint and drying conditions

Yeah man, it's perfect for spraying smaller items like motorcycle parts.

@cbrblade2705 3 года назад

spot on!, If you wouldnt mind could i ask you for some advice on respraying a side panel?, I have replacement panels, for my blackbird, but there not the right colour, there in really good shape though, no chips or scratches, just that there a dark silver, and i need them to be light silver. i was thinking of just rubbing them down with some grey scotch brite to key them, and making sure i take the shine off the top clear coat, then i am wondering if i should use a adhesive promoter instead of a plastic primer, then just spray my colour coats, let site for a few days to flash off, then light grey scotch brite blow it off, panel wipe it, then 2k clear gloss coat. any advice you could give would be great.. Thank you.

@MackieBass 3 года назад

Mate, you nailed it. Read it back and it is exactly what I'd do. Seems like you know what you're doing. Good luck :)

@cbrblade2705 3 года назад

@@MackieBass cheers mate, its the pointers you have always givin in your vids that have made my last spray jobs solid, devils in the detail. stay safe mate, great vids as usual.

@crumblymal8479 3 года назад

Another great job man just curious about the sanding block would ya always use a block as apposed to just your fingers for rubbing on the round edges or maybe that's a daft question ?. this does not mean I am goin to have a go by any means i'd rather have a drink and watch ha : D

@MackieBass 3 года назад

I like using small cork block, it helps reduce the imprefections even on the corners. Never use fingers, unless it;s a very small area. Sometimes I like using hard foam, or even scotch pad as a backup support for sand paper. Whatever works for you - works :)

@JohnnyHatesVB 3 года назад

Great work as always mate! What happened to the particularly heavy metal you usually go for? Think you need to whack on some Lee Scratch Perry if you're committing to the divergence!

@MackieBass 3 года назад

hehe, i thought I'd be adventarous for a change... I won't do it too often, I promise :)
