How long did u wait in between the base to intercoat pearl and then the clear and what did u adjust ur air pressure to when u sprayed ur second coat of clear
Thank you for everything you do. I ordered the ghost blue today and was talking with Jeff and Cindy I gave you a great shout out and how I was very impressed with what you do. I'm 56 I had 5 heart attack and 3 strokes and Nov had bypass surgery and 3 types of arthritis. This is my first time doing it but going to do my best.
When I'm done beating stage 4 cancer I plan on buying a kit car and doing the body work myself and this gives me inspiration. No excuses on my part been talking about doing that for years and its time I do it!
I have a jar of this pigment for other projects, and for what I'm using it for, it looks GREAT!!!!! I'm very impressed with how it looks in automotive paint.
That was a lot of great info packed into a short amount of time. Thanks for including the orange peel and how to fix as well. Too many videos show only a perfect job every time. I'm trying to learn not watch paint porn , y'all. Keep up the good work!
Bro I can't believe why you do not have much more subscribers because your channel is so addictive, I love all this color testing would love to see this in a maroon or red, I belive it will give that black cherry look. Love this color. Thanks for all the effort you go through. Cheers from South Africa
Last week I ordered enough Aoi Hi Blue for 2 gallons. Mixed it 100g per gallon, sprayed a test panel and it is way lighter than expected. I messaged Eye Candy and they say I can order a black pearl and add it to the Aoi Hi Blue to make it darker. So I did. I wish I'd seen this yesterday! 😞 I think your technique is spot on!
Thanks bro that's exactly what I needed to see. I'm going to use eye candy red rose over the black. I want it to be a little red like u did with this blue. Thanks again
I believe both fenders are awesome! Solid 10 on both! I want a different effect, so I am thinking about a white primer sealer with a medium blue, so it’s a brighter blue instead of a dark.
Like to see the darker stuff. Both are amazing how they come out. Would love to see the same thing in a brown, like root beer, the color of a glass of root beer, dark,dark with a hint of brown with all the metal flakes!
I watched a guy use the darkest brown basecoat he could find, topped that with a mix of gold & copper metal flake, and then covered it with root beer candy. It sounds like the type of finish you're talking about. It looked nearly black in the shade, but in direct sunlight, it was amazing.
Hi. very good job and thank you for all these inspiration. can you do something even more darker. i'd love to see a Mix aof dark blue and purple pigment. Thank you you're doing great.
Absolutely love this color might actually use it on my truck .... Could u possibly try like a graphite grey on Black ?would like to see how that comes out
PLEASE!! Could you shoot the ZAFFER blue pearl pigment over gray and silver. Gray is so popular now, a reduced pigment pearl would look really cool, then just a little silver at the bottom rocker of the fender like you do normally when shooting two base colors. Also in my humble opinion, pearls should always be reduced pigment like you did here. It came out RAD! When its subtle, its a more dramatic effect. When someone walks past it and only the radiused areas where it catches the sun or light is making the pear visible, people (like myself) go whoa, it has pearl! Thanks!! Keep up the rad videos!!
Id like to see something like that but close to a brandy wine Candy if possible amazing job I'm trying to figure out a good color for my 81c10 hope it turns out half as good as your test fenders thank you for everything you do awesome job GT
It looks like you are using a satin paint instead of a gloss paint. The final product is very nice and would be a wonderful combination for a street vehicle. I wonder what you would have for a vehicle like a 4x4 that is used in the woods and wants to be less noticeable when it is parked. That would require it to be painted in either a monotone or a conservative color like a muted green and hoow you would do it.
Dude this came out really nice! Do you think you could do this same technique but with a teal pigment? Also, maybe just mixing a small amount of pigment into the clearcoat instead of using an intercoat? I think that would be interesting to see!
In one of his videos he actually takes a rattle can and sprays it into the spray gun cup and then shoot it onto the fender. If you’re buying the quarts of rust oleum you would have to reduce it I’m not sure on the ratio of that but you can do it.
I've been looking for a deep, deep green to paint my Crown Vic. This technique might work, I can dial it in with a test panel. A straight up base with tinted clear over it, then final clear. Thanks!
That’s a beautiful color. Quick question I thought you did another one and at night it looked almost pure black can you please refresh my memory, I believe you actually showed it at night.
Hey Bruh, RU-vid recommended your channel, I hit the thumbnail and the rest is history!!!! I love your vids also the teaching/explaining all methods! I haven’t seen all videos yet but, have you done any full candy paint on the whole exterior of a car? From your New York people peace!
I prefer the deep colors. I would love to see a black cherry, black in shade and just a hint of red in sun. what I have found with eye candy pigs is that the sparkles in many colors are multi color sparkles. I would love to just get red sparkles in the red pigment. I used dark cherry and lots of green and blue sparkles in it. Can you find us just a red with red sparkles?
Brilliant work, as usual, a question please, if i have a black car and i want just a purple pearl/tint but want to retain the main black colour, how do i go about doing that, thanks for all your content it is very informative
Could you do a video where you spray the pearl with light coats and then with super heavy coats, maybe even run it a little bit so we can see how it reacts? I want to pearl clear my car but I'm worried about getting stripes or mottling
The clear on my old black Canyon has totally failed and after 20 years I'm tired of the boring black. I like this but would consider using even less of the "Nokon Blue". You will hear from me soon, thanks!
That color looks sick. I was just talking to Jeff on the phone yesterday about your channel,he absolutely loves it and loves the work that you’re doing as do I. How does the color look in the dark does it looks legit black?
I love the way it came out. This might be my color. Can i do the black base and put the pigment in the clear and not the intercoat? Will I get the same effect?
Thanks for the video explaining this so well. I’m a new fan and this is my first time trying to do a paint job on my 06 Toyota Corolla the factory color is Dark Pearl Blue 8P4. I am restoring the roof and the hood and have Rustoleum navy blue enamel as the base coat. I noticed that it looked too blue and flat under bright outdoor lighting at night. I think that by adding the pearl clearcoat it will give just the look I envisioned! Can I add a black pearl clearcoat to achieve a similar effect, or should I always paint the base coat black?
Edit; came back to say the end color looked amazing. That High Teck spray pattern looked like it was coming out of rattle can. First product I’ve seen you use that I don’t really like… Thanks for testing it so I know to avoid.
I didn't want to leave a link to the high teck till I knew it was a good product I can recommend to people. Unfortunately, I'm not fully satisfied with the results I'm getting, and I think a can of rustoleum would've done better
@@GTsPerformance I agree: a regular can of Rustoleum seems to perform as good or better than that stuff. You testing all these products is a great benefit to us all.
Always wondered what it would look like with a blue color like the zaffre and clear coat it with a dark blue pearl like the nokon. Would it change the color alot or just a little sparkle of dark blue?
