I just love the humble way Kyle acts when explaining how to do things, like anyone of us could do what he does. Spoiler Alert: Most of us cannot do the amazing things you see on this channel😂😅

@LifeofBliss Год назад

Anything is possible... if you believe in yourself!! And lots of practice...

@handymadness Год назад

It’s all about persistence.

@OHMAudioChannel Год назад

Water and wood glue is absolutely my favorite way to prep MDF for paint, and it’s cheaper than sanding sealer.

@LifeofBliss Год назад

Absolutely. Pretty disappointed I took so long to start doing it! There some high gloss builds I've done in the past that would have benefitted from it

@marcminor7049 Год назад

I like in the middle of your video when you remind everyone to stay hydrated,your drink of choice “Liquid Death!” Definitely got a chuckle out of me with that. Lol

@LifeofBliss Год назад

😅 thanks Marc. It was so dang hot when I was down there working, figured it was a funny little break in the video

@bjmarchives 7 месяцев назад

Now I only know automotive but I think lacquer primer would be good to lay down (and sand flat) before final paint is applied.

@LifeofBliss 7 месяцев назад

Per Upol (Raptor Liner) it can be applied directly on wood as well as several other surfaces without primer. Makes a good bond. I will say I've moved these around a few times with a dolly with no issues. Even bumped a cherry picker into the dual 21 box, it scratches the paint off the cherry picker 😂

Hey what do you do for a living?

I work in the Healthcare industry. I enjoy working with my hands though, this stuff is my hobby

@chevron916 Год назад

Thanks for the informative vid. You had mentioned that you made ~6 passes of the diluted glue over each seam. Did you wait for the glue to dry between each pass?

@LifeofBliss Год назад

Ah, excellent question. I did not wait for it to completely dry. I just waiting until it was tacky. It was pretty warm that day too, so it dried fairly quickly, but I was able to cover everything with 5 or 6 coats in about 30-45 min I'd say.

@LifeofBliss Год назад

I'd give it a good 3+ hours to dry before sanding btw. Just make sure it's completely dry before that

Great video but where's part 2? I'm on that stage as well

@LifeofBliss Год назад

Been pretty busy lately... I'm finishing up an edit on a 42u theater rack then I'll be doing the painting and install video on these. Hopefully next week sometime. Spoiler, if you are willing and able to spray vs roll, Raptor liner is much better than duratex...

@miscreant1739 Год назад

@@LifeofBliss Thanks for the great video. I'm about to do 4 of the evo 24" cabs - do you think the 6-quart raptor kit would be enough for the rough finish like you did? Too much/no enough?

@LifeofBliss Год назад

I think 6 should be sufficient. I did 2 full cover coats on the 3 boxes I did, and the dual cabs are bigger than the 24 box. Did that with 8. And second thought... I'd grab 8. You'd hate to run out or not quite get the last box done. Figure 1 quart per box per coat

@miscreant1739 Год назад

@@LifeofBliss Love the vids, thanks for taking the time to respond - I'll grab 8!
