I'm here thanks to Hemmings Motor News and as others have said, not into this particular style or color, but, dayum, watched you do your magic from start to finish - excellent work! Your presumably years of experience and tons of patience is admirable. Keep up the great work, I'm sure your customers appreciate it VERY much!
@@jasontoneydesignz3068 I've always wanted to be able to paint a car on my own, albeit scaled down (I have a 58 Ford Fairlane) but, between lack of time and money, yeah, once I retire I'll reconsider it lol. I get the basic idea of laying down the paint, but seeing the depth you achieved is beyond epic level imho
@@MikeT-TheRetiredColonel you can do it. Just take your time and learn the basics. Once you learn the basics start with a small model car and work your way up from there. You’ll be glad you did it in the end. Good luck on getting the 58 Fairlane done.
MAN words cant say what i want to say here writing this so you man are the MICHELANGELO OF THE CUSTOM PAINT WORK WOW ISNT PRAISE ENOUGH around the rear window the foging you give it so so much depth 3 D effect AMAZING LOOKING FORWARD TO WATCHING MORE OF YOUR VIDS THANKS FOR THE NO NONSENSE NO MUSIC NO TALK JUST THE WORK IN HAND T Y

Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
wow thats cool , i think ill start small to try and see how i get on , we dont have any stuff like this in london England but hell it would go down amazing
Thank you 🙏, There will be a few more step by step videos by the end of the year once i can release them. Start with small speed shapes and then skateboard blanks to cars. You will do well just take your time and understand painting from start to finish.
Thank you 🙏, It did take years to get to this level but it is possible for just about anyone to get to this level with the proper dedication and time. Don’t give up if you plan on doing this kind of work.
@@smithjohn3080 I only blocked between the first two coats to keep the work as flat as possible. Being that its water base there no reason to sand between coats if each layer is done in 24 hours of each other.
Thank you 🙏 It’s all depends on where you go and who you know but $2,000 in paint (ruff estimate) and $2000-$75000 in labor. It all depends on conditions of the car , dent repair, and prep , plus shop labor. It takes years to decades for most to put it all together and that also has its price but is worth it in the end.

I’m a retired painter now but in todays money it would cost a minimum of $8,000 to beyond. Materials alone would be $2500 in clear coat, candy paint, reducers, tape, time, paper, and shop labor. The original Idea i had for this car had to be reduced because of the shop the car was at. I had gold leaf planned and pinstripes but never got to do it because of budget and time restrictions. I now only build cars for myself and will be releasing videos of those projects soon.
@@sll-tt6bj The shops that do this kind of work are always looking for help. Start with a collision shop to learn the basics of painting. There are also classes you can take all round the world to learn these techniques. Ill be posting more videos soon as a series of How to’s.

Use to see all those custom painted cars in auto shows at the War Memorial back in the 1970's. It is impressive work to say the least but most of the cars were downright gaudy...way overdone. SOOO much metalflake. Very cool on motorcycle tanks and helmets but not so much cars. Not loving this one here either.
