Multiple FAILS on the Cheap Jaguar Paint Job! (It Looks Outrageous) 

Your damn lucky you didnt snap the lugnuts right off by standing on the rachet. Get a good 4-way or a breaker bar and the right socket. That adapter was good to maybe 75 ft lbs. Your wheels are torqued to 100 + ftlbs.

@@randythompson4006 Snapped one off just the other day... good advice Randy!

but then the price was 500 for a full car not 2000 euros in Ireland. 😂😂😂👍🏼

Owner did the same thing. Didn’t bother to tape the paint while sanding the headlights

Christa Bianchi yup

😂😂😂😂😂

😂

That might be gimmick infringement, "The team" might have their legal goofs send Sam the letter saying they own the car

XD

FireAndGasoline 😂

I laughed my ass off if Papa Smurf was driving and all the smurfs pile out of it

It's also known as Ford blue.

Eugene Krabs It’s...smurfing blue

Naw u need a reality check that paint is great for 500

Thankyou car looks grate for 500

Looks dam good for under 500

Glass Elevator I agree.

Nah...red to match the calipers. Then take a can of red and spray all up in there where the trans cooler is.

agreed if anything let the company do it at the same time that they repaint your bumper.

Glass elevator I love your videos

IcantSignIn your joking right? Maybe the intercooler would match the calipers but the entire grill RED?!!?! That ridiculous that'd look like a fucking child's Hotwheels. Mate show me one car with a res grill and blue paint lmao

too late the wrench is dicked.

So how is one supposed to torque lh threads?

Or don't be cheap/lazy .. take it to Discount Tire and let them handle it for a few $$ ..

atty garland u sound stupid

lol

Nah fam... Krispey kreme

Brembo sticker adds another 4-8 horsepower to the car though

mipmipmipmipmip But a Dominos sticker would add another 4-8 scoops of salt

Nailed it!

isn’t this car from the time when Ford owned both Jaguar and Volvo? It would make a Polestar blue Jag kinda legit

Samcrac kick ass

Those wheels look really good Sam! A chameleon effect!

Good luck with your clear coat peeling in 18 months XD

Samcrac So this is the NEW "Food delivery" vehicle Bro!

Quality workmanship right there. How could they even let that go out like that.

It could have been because of poor lighting in the spray booth. The bigger question is why wasn't it found and fixed before giving it back.

Daniel Ruskin you get what you pay for

Zajaka what do you mean you can't have 20 mills of paint on a part lol

I had a factory GM car come with thin paint on one of the corners, it would not take a shine. GM quality.

Thats what came to my mind as well when I saw it, the car went full Eifel65.

8362/10 best

Am I the only person who remembers this from JerryRigEverything? It was on durability testing the Blue HTC Ultra

lol

Ya know HTC U Ultra from Zack !

For that price I'd rather do it in my yard...

For 500 you can't beat it

Agreed, it’s not bad for the cost. Some of these people in the comments seem to think you’ll get a perfect show car paint job for sub 500 bucks.

I agree that the paintjob itself is pretty good. And I doubt I could really do better in that department. But I know if I spent 500$ on paint, fresh spray tips and some plastic sheet... Well I could probably match that quality, and the car wouldn't have nasty overspray and poor line work.

Meeker Extreme everyone always says wraps, have you looked at the price of a full car wrap? It’s much more expensive than a cheap paint job, it’s several thousand dollars. And plastidip to me is a terrible choice in most cases and it’ll still cost about the same and you have to do it yourself, if you want to pay someone to do it it’ll cost more than this paint job by a factor of 2 at least. Most people looking at this car from a few feet away and just glancing at it will not see any of the imperfections and literally all of them he can fix with a bit of thinner and a rag.

P Kuudsk Stevie wonder said two thumbs down

Djrulez203 hahaha good one

rekt

He should just put their logo on all his cars lol

Anthony A lol that would be funny.

this comment needs upvoting!!!

Just don't use the Gulf logo because that is actually copyright protected for this purpose

one could say...They Blue it all.

Were the seats a reference to Rob's BMW? LOL

just wipe it with thinner. simple fix

Or any auto parts store have under coting in cans

don;t put anything on the intercooler lol

why? because 500bucks that's why

pat mac That doesn't excuse it at all I don't care if it was 500 bucks or not that's part of taping everything off when you Paint something

You don't care? Funny how that works, they also don't care.

it wasn't $500, that was the quote he didn't go with. I'm pretty sure this was $295

lol for 500 bucks its like macco do all the prep and send it to them taped up if you dont want it sprayed everywhere. Cuz they just doing it as fast as they possibly can.

Saleh Essawi Not sure if you can get a different shop to do better for 500 bucks tho...

Jakub Kraus i understand your perspective but I would rather save up some extra money (of course it will take a longer time) for a better paint job because the way I see it he just lost 500 bucks.

Pretty good for $500.

I've heard stories of macco painting across wheels and tires

mipmipmipmipmip The honesty helps too. I'd rather know what I'm paying for.

Don't give their lawyers any ideas.... LoL

K-Mart is red? Lol Blue Light Special?

I was thinking Domino's blue... -ducks-

Thumbs up for kmart

dapz325 Yeah I agree. A lot of people don't like this colour, but black trim would really set it off.

dapz325 yes definetly

That would make this car look a lot better

I would do exactly as you suggest and paint the front and rear bumpers black as well. Those heavy bumpers don't blend well with the curve of the hood. May as well visually differentiate the bumpers as what they are, bumpers. Offset it with white painted wheels to lighten it up on its stance and give it an athletic look. The pillars and roof black would make it look a bit like a convertible, which is always a nice look anyway.

Details wrapped in carbon fiber

100% next time I'm at the Harbor....

FYI even AvE had great things to say about this one... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jqWypTAG4Hw.html If I was in the market I would check it out fo' sho'

Yeah, I was about to comment that the Chicago electric impacts from harbor freight are pretty nice and then I saw that huge air compressor in the background. :)

get some impact sockets.

black would be nice for contrast

Which would make it like every other car. I think it's accidentally unique. ;)

Actually, if the mesh can be easily separated from the so that it could be painted, I think it'd look great painted to match the wheels.

brian5o if it was chrome I wouldn't be surprised if it just falls off

oh that’d be nice indeed

Some scumbag mechanics do this. Supposedly it's a trick to ensure you have to employ their services. Though I'd never visit such a shop again.

My family (at least mom and dad) always tell them to hand tighten them. What could be like a 10 minute wheel change somewhere turns into an hour+ of waiting on a service vehicle or rollback or something. Total BS.

I've discover shit like this before. Learned a long time ago to add a length(4-6ft) of pipe over the wrench. Adds enough leverage to pop the lugs loose. Has always worked for me.

John Thomas that’s all that matters!!

Winn Dixie You Canadian ?

Georgie Mac he is not smart enough to listen to people that actually know

Heh! AvE couldn't have said it better himself. ru-vid.com

W. Bush Holy hell. I never realized that AvE really stood for anything. That url just blew my mind.

Killa Namikaze Masking is still prep work so...

CarPhonix CarAudio I can name a good eye doctor for you to visit.

fillg lol I hear older folks talk about that place, I can imagine

I'm old enough to remember ".....29.95, no ups, no extras!"

fillg lmoa Earl scheib is still around in my hood here in SD. They're shamefully shitty

dayyuu HAha yup people always talk shit about that place in the car Facebook groups

fillg : Growing up on Youngstown, Ohio. We had a Earl Scheibs & another paint your car chain called : The Auto Painter's. Having bought my first car at 13 ( paper route & cutting grass $$) I bought a 69 Road Runner for $700.00. After ditching all the 70's " goodness" - Garter belt hung from the mirror, air shocks with big old Cragar SS rims, playboy bunny with a light on the rearend etc.I braze in new sheet metal patches and plenty of bondo, put Magnum 500 14' rims, cranked down the torsion bar and dropped the air shocks. Buying a set of used black bucket seats and back seats from a parts car 69 Charger. Put on a incorrect for the year flat black spoiler off a guy at the bars duster twister. Plenty of weekend and night time sanding, I took it to Earl Scheib for the $99.95 paint job in Tor Red- which they ended up having to repaint it twice as well- also they had to repaint the 2 flat black hood stripes as well. But I must say for the money at the time and me doing ALL the prep work- pulling grille/ headlight/ taillights, bumpers, door handles etc and going over all the weather strip with lacquer thinner and taping off 75% of the car by myself. It truly came out nice. Spent a year managing the local Auto Painter's location. Who used Western Color system Acrylic Enamel with hardener. Which I mixed per the body tag or came up with a custom color I mixed, or what the customer picked from "the book". We had a strict policy of having the customers clean their car as much as possible before bringing it in to be painted. Dry sanded with 180 then 320 on a "jitterbug" sander. Pre- detailed and checked over with a florescent light bar behind me to see any un sanded places, where it might not have been feather edged correctly sanded and primed, wet sanded and blocked. You must got one he'll of a deal for $500.00. Considering our base paint job started out a $350.00/ door jamba, under the trunk and hood was extra, so was stepping up to sealer before paint or having Urethane paint sprayed. No surprise it was done in 1 day. As an average we painted 5-6 cars a day. I even had my 73 RS camaro painted at E.S. BUT I purchased my own paint in Higher Orange from the body shop store and they still charged me $99.95 but had a real real nice paint job. Over spray is to be expected then cleaned up later. I personally would have went with a Red or Burgundy- with metallic- Acrylic Enamel. Interesting to see what the Jaguar turns out like. Just think the blue is more for a Mustang or Camaro.

No. You are drunk again...

Yes

Hugh Jafro Hey! If they have metric bolts that were the correct grade, diameter, thread pitch, and length, what's the deal?! 😂

😂😂😂

As long as they are Grade 8 hex flange bolts, it doesn't matter where he got the bolts from.

Almost everything in Home Depot is from China. You really trust Chinese factory's to adhere to ASTM, SAE and ISO specifications?

Bolt grade has nothing to do with tolerances. You can have a high grade bolt with shit threading and shit hex, allen or torx specs.

Ohhhh god! This all for content lady. The guy is obviously living a life of leisure

Yeah Brendan and possibly eating more pizza than he can handle. Happy days.

Shh don't give dominos another reason to go after him!

with red calipers and "silver" wheels.

Pedro Borges he should put pizza rims on it hahahaha

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Why is this paint job ok? I mean, even for this price, weren't it clear that one had to deliver a perfect job of taping and covering? They could've done it easily without more efforts. I'd never sell a person a paint job like that.

Project FD e

Looks like something a 16 year old fob would pick.

I bet a $500 paint job he's waiting to get over the lawsuit and it's getting a dominos decal job

be nice Robert.

Until you're 10 feet away.

This paint shops main business are car dealers wanting to spiff up a back row special so he can get and extra $1000 out it.

Dead ass i got my paint job done in tj for like 800 tops nd it came out way better than this

That is EXACTLY what they told me; mostly dealers getting the cheap jobs.

Exactly

Brenda L yeah he did the the prep on it he could have taped it off

Yes, I have been following Sam's site for several months I saw his prep work. I'm just saying: He got what he paid for "A Paint job". Nothing more.

Meeker Extreme what I don't understand is he's good at putting cars back together why didn't you just take the bumper off like you're supposed to and take the grill out and all that

aserta by the time he got it back it was too late.

He'd end up making a worse problem.

Thinner eats the clear coat, it’s too aggressive. Especially because it’s only been a few days since the clear coat was sprayed, it needs weeks to “breathe out” and harden. If anything he should just wait a few days and go over it with a very fine sandpaper (1500grit) and polish it out to remove the haze marring

respectfully.... horrible idea. it would be a disaster.

nah it was within recoat window itll be fine as far as sticking

@@sethrosenthal most paints can be recoated within a 24 hr period without sanding

Chris Yeah, hit the intercooler again so the air is blocked. Smh

bboysfanatic uhhhhh, a light coating to cover up the blue is perfectly fine.

I've had overspray like that before, usually the fender liners are dirty and/or greasy enough that just a quick spray from a pressure sprayer or a quick trip to the car wash will clean the overspray right off! Just be careful of the fresh paint on the car!

Chris how still does that wool have to stay?

Chris Yes paint effects performance, yes double paint effects performance x2 . He should let it soak in some purple power to remove the paint or something more powerful like carb cleaner . Rest of your comment is correct . Cheers
