Killer work brotha! Love AND appreciate the tutorial. Not alot of custom painterz willing to share n spread the knowledge so for a journeyman custom painter like myself, the tips n tricks are GREATLY appreciated! Subscribed n lookin forward to more from ya brotha’ !!
Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙏🏻 I’m definitely no pro; but I know I’ve come a long ways since the start and definitely enjoy helping others from the mistakes I’ve had. I’m definitely gonna put together some more; it looks like there’s more interest in the “how to” of the paint work than I thought! Thanks again brotha! 👊🏼
Right on Dan! Looks like quite a few people want more tutorials on the lowrider paint. I’ll definitely take the time to create and share if it’ll help our lowrider folks out! I watch just about all of your stuff too man! Keep it up bro 👊🏼
Awesome! I’m super glad you came across it! Thanks for the feedback on the time. It would definitely look great on a softail! Thanks for taking the time to comment 🙏🏻
You’re welcome! I’m dropping one on taping and making jobs symmetrical this Saturday morning! 👊🏼 I’ll definitely keep um’ coming as long as people want them!
@ I did the backing plates on my 66 Chevy caprice video is on my channel should check it out when you have a chance. I’m planing on doing the roof and trunk on it next. Any tips and tricks would help out a lot also color combos. Thank you in advance for the help!
Thank you 🙏🏻 I hesitated on making a detailed step by step because I wasn’t sure there would be much of an interest. I guess I was way off; I’ll start doing some more for everyone now. Keep your content coming; I watch just about all of them when I have time. 👊🏼
Thanks again brotha! 👊🏼 I’ll keep making them; gonna go over some of the other stuff soon. Like the taping out the patterns; and keep them symmetrical 👍🏼
For smaller projects you ought to get a air brush for your shading. Would not over spray as much on the outer shading lines that are only taped on the inside. Hope that makes sense. Lol Just my opinion. I've been painting smaller projects for a long time. Came out nice though. Love the magenta. 👌👍
Yeah, I started out using my airbrush; between the two LPH80’s and the airbrush it was just taking to long. But I agree, the airbrush is definitely nice for smaller projects. Thanks! I definitely love the magenta, my daughter definitely loves it! Haha
Yeah, I feel ya there! I’ve seen a lot of pattern work I wouldn’t want on my ride. I think I finally feel confident enough to put some work in on my Impala 👊🏼
Hahahaha! They’re affordable; little piece of lowrider art for the wall that most people can afford. At least I think that’s why; I’ve seen a lot of people starting to do those folding chairs too. Appreciate you taking the time to drop a comment brotha! 👊🏼
@@vencilldavid I was a professional wrestler for 18 years and I used to jump off folding chairs and do crazy moves with them..... Sure wish I had one back then lol 😂😂😂
The first few I did took me between 20-25 hours. I bought a second Anest LPH80; so I wouldn’t need to keep changing between the shading and regular color paint. It’s saved me a lot of time; and of course I’ve just gotten much faster. In total hours; it takes me from start to finish around 15 hours each now. That’s split up between the flaking, sanding/taping, water drops drying overnight and then I can get it all painted the last day. Thanks for commenting, I hope that helps 👊🏼
Of course! I’ll show that in a coming video. I’m sure a lot of people would like to see how to get the pattern even from side to side too 👊🏼 thanks for taking the time to comment
The paint is sitting on the outside of the the water drop; so when it drys, the paint is basically just laying there on the object. So when you lightly mist that first coat of innercoat clear on it “locks” them into place 👊🏼 hope that helps; thanks for commenting 🙏🏻
