Hi garagenoise, thanks for posting this video. It is by far the most informative one I’ve found yet! I just finished sanding my 84 blazer with 320. Do I have to primer the whole thing if I am going to paint it the same color? I am going to use ‘hot rod flatz’ in the buckskin tan color that matches the factory color almost exactly. Thanks in advance for your help and this awesome video!

@GarageNoise 11 месяцев назад

@@xjx7893 no, not necessarily. It depends, if you sanding for adhision purposes than no you don't have to primer the whole vehicle. If your not going to primer some areas I would recommend sanding with 600 before paint. Of course you want to primer over body filler work or any bare metal. Appreciate your question and support!

@xjx7893 11 месяцев назад

@garagenoise thank you so much for the info. This will be a huge help for me. I will hit the areas that won’t need primer with 600 and finish all the primered spots with 320. I really appreciate your help and videos. They are super helpful.

I'm converting a cargo van to a camper and want to paint the interior of the doors of my Ram Promaster van, in order to change the color. These are very small areas, just around the windows of the rear cargo doors and the side sliding door. The existing factory paint is in excellent condition. I'm going to use cans of Rustoleum spray paint (made for metal); there is no visible rust, just a few superficial scratches. Do I need to sand and/ or prime first? If primer is necessary, can you tell me what type of primer I should use? I'd be so grateful if you could offer a suggestion- I'm doing this on my own and know nothing about auto body painting.

Some darker streaks on the edge of the doors, I should've gone all the way across rather than panel by panel (now I know how to improve my technique). 2 or 3 drips from my gun leaking. Basecoat went down good, my finishing on the clear is a little rough though. Not as glossy as I want it and surface is a little grippy when I run a fiber cloth over it (washed the car 2-3 weeks later and the drying towel was gripping). I used acrylic and I know that that's very soft paint. I was wondering when I could wet sand to give it a smoother finish? Or if I can even wet sand acrylic?

I just subd and you definitely know your craft. So, to anyone out there, I have a 2005 Malibu, and the paint is pretty good on 3/4 of the car. The hood, left front fender and halfway down the driver's side has really worn paint, the fender is showing black through the paint. This car only has 70k original miles and runs well. It was owned by a lovely elderly woman who is now in a retirement home. I've heard that you can get original color spray cans at the parts store. Am I wasting time trying color match it in my driveway? Not trying to be cheap, just don't have much of a budget! If this is the route I go, do I need to prime the whole thing?

@robertvaldez7012 Год назад

Excellent videos. My 01 Silverado the clear coat is gone on all the tops were the sun beats down on them.Only edges are flaky and chalky. Do I have to sand off all the clear coat or just feather the edges. What about the clear on the side of fenders,doors, and bed do I scuff them with 320 for primer.

@GarageNoise Год назад

Feather edge clear is good, Then primer. 320 is good before primer on sides.

@RC.56 Год назад

Looks satisfying…. I’m just trying my first paint job. Ecoat parts, but hood had a ding on an edge, so I sanded to metal, put body filler, sanded with 80, the 150, and sprayed rattle primer on it…. 10min later, another light coat of prime…. Then tried to sand it and all went to shit. Repeated the steps 3 times, learned that wet sanding didn’t gouge the primer and filler.

@GarageNoise Год назад

Spray can 1k primer takes forever to dry. My advice is to use 2k primer. If you use 1k primer then paint it with base coat and then clearcoat your paint will react and wrinkle up and cause more headaches then it's worth. Thank's for watching appreciate the support!

@RC.56 Год назад

@@GarageNoise My plan is to spray sealer that I already bought. I wasn’t going to use any primer at all, but had that small repair. I hope sealer will suffice, the base, and clear.

@GarageNoise Год назад

@@RC.56 it may be ok. I'm assuming its a 1k sealer? It would be better if it's 2k sealer. If your paint was breaking down from the sun the only issue you might have with just sealer is over time baking in the sun could cause your new paint to soak into and shrink into that old paint . I would recommend at the least a 2k sealer a 2k primer is better yet . Just a heads up. You might totally get away with just sealing it before paint there's alot of factors. Hope it all works out well!

Yes, pretty much. I don't like to primer over 180 with 2k urethane primer.

@YourLockerzPal 3 года назад

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I have a question, I am painting over old paint, I’m reading online that you should leave the car at 180 and not 320 so the high build can grab better? I have some bondo spots too would you recommend leaving that at 180 and the rest of the car still at 320? Or the entire car with bondo at 180? Thanks

@GarageNoise 3 года назад

You can primer over the 180 and probably be fine. The reason I don't recommend that is because primer shrinks, even 2k primer . When it shrinks ,it can shrink into the 180 scratches and those can be visible in your finished product. Check the technical data sheet on the primer your using it should have a recommendation.

Self etching primer is a chemical bond with metal and i suppose it just doesn't bond to filler well cause it not recommended .welcome to the channel And the community!

I had to feather some chips out that went to bare metal, duplicolor primer caused the feathered edge of old paint to lift. What primer is needed?

@GarageNoise 3 года назад

Dupli color I believe is lacquer. This will sometimes lift paint. 2k urethane primer should solve that or sometimes if you dust on the duplicolor and gradually build the primer you can sometimes keep it from lifting.

My truck is in pretty decent shape I want to do a color change what grit do you recommend clear coat and everything is intact what should I do before primer

@GarageNoise 3 года назад

Depends on condition of your Current paint. If your paint is in good shape , meaning it's not peeling of chalky from sun than you can sand it with 400 and paint over that. You may want to seal it before you apply color depending on how drastic the color change is.

@JayLupe 3 года назад

@@GarageNoise ive heard of people saying "apply a seal".. what is a seal? And why is it necessary?

@GarageNoise 3 года назад

@@JayLupe Good question a sealer is something applied just before you paint it does a few things it creates one uniform color so it's easier to cover with less paint. It seals the surface creating a barrier between the surface and the paint. Why is this necessary because new paint can have a bad reaction to old paint . What is sealer it is basically thin primer. There are different types of sealer . 1k sealer meaning it drys on it's own or catalyzed 2k primer in this case a harden is added to force the primer to cure and harden over the surface. Is it necessary that depends on the surface your painting. I hope this helps!

@danparsons5996 2 года назад

@@GarageNoise Hey mate, do you mean 2k prime and then additionally seal (thin prime) it, as well? I'm repainting my truck - paint is quite good. I'm sanding back with 400 and then I'm guessing prime, seal and paint. is this correct? Also, it's my first time painting in a booth with spray gun, do you think it's better for me to do 2k base coat and then 2k clear? Or 2k top coat and call it day? Cheers!

@GarageNoise 2 года назад

@@danparsons5996 Are you changing color? If paint is in good condition you may not need to prime or seal. Is it a clearcoat you are sanding? If it is and it's in good condition 400 the color (basecoat ) and clear. If you changing color you might want to seal so you have better coverage.

@67polara Год назад

I thought your primer fan was very narrow instead of wide. I'd guess you are using less air pressure to avoid a ton of overspray and you have the time. Not sure. My devilbiss FLG-3 has a 2.2 tip and it can 'dial down' the fluid when needed too.

@GarageNoise Год назад

Yes lower air pressure and because of that I was spaying alot closer to the panel to get the primer to flow out. Appreciate the support!

@heatherhendricks9449 Год назад

What did u wipe the truck down with before primer?

@GarageNoise Год назад

I would use a water based cleaner like spray away glass cleaner or isopropyl alcohol with a low flash point like 70%. You have to be careful with wax and Grease remover with fiberglass. Appreciate the support!

Ok ,so I just tried sanding my car with 80 grit hart sandpaper and it's taking FOREVER!!!! My car has been painted once over the original paint.So could it be because the thickness of the aftermarket Clearcoat? Yours just seems to be going really quick!! I am using a 12V plug it orbital standard sander.could that be the problem?I also don't have an air compressor that big to be sufficient enough for a high powered sander.Any tips? Material or sander you would recommend that is a plug in.I would appreciate any tips or help.Thank you in advance sir!!

@GarageNoise 2 года назад

I have a question, is your sandpaper gumming up? So after you sand for five minutes with a fresh sheet of paper look at the sandpaper, is there pieces of paint stuck to the paper? My sander is electric but it's pricey like $600. Also what brand of sandpaper are you using?

@jesseborja9805 2 года назад

@@GarageNoise it doesn't really gum up.I use a 20 dollar hyper tough orbital sander from Walmart because I'm a broke parent lol.Also, I am using a soft pad on it so I can hit the edges,but it seems to barely scuff it.I take off more from using a block sander by hand sanding it in 10 minutes compared to 30 minutes with the electrical one.Im also using a Walmart brand sand paper by hartz.I guess, in this case, you get what you pay for judging off your 600 dollar sander lol

@GarageNoise 2 года назад

Are you taking it down to bare metal? It's possible it could be the sander. More likely the sand paper you might try getting some good 80 grit from 3m . I think it's most likely the sander.

@jesseborja9805 2 года назад

What will be a decent air compressor size to run tools , and paint ??. I don’t have 220 v in my garage , so got to be 110 v unit , maybe from Harbor freight . Thanks for any input .

@GarageNoise 2 года назад

I can look into it but the focus when choosing a compressor is the highest cmfs production you can. I'm comfortable with around 15cmf production for an overall paint job. You can paint with less but you may have air fluctuations when you paint wich makes it more difficult. It might be hard to get 15 cfm from 120 but get as high as you can.

@zanaga1901 3 года назад

If no bare on vehicle do I need to put primer or a epoxy primer and sealer and if I am painting a vehicle another color do I need a primer. I don't have bare metal on my truck so would think primer is not necessary but the last time put primer on the vehicle but I don't think I should of but it was on just smaller spots on vehicle just wanted to blend the spots in I know I will need a reducer which have at home because painting my vehicle another color later in the year but as far as using a primer I don't think I will need.

@GarageNoise 3 года назад

If you don't have bare metal don't use epoxy primer. If you paint is in good condition you may not need primer. If your doing a color change I would recommend sealer or 2k urethane primer. Hope this helps, thanks for watching!
