Thank you! We’re glad you found the video helpful! You will still need to sand the whole panel in order to get proper adhesion for the blender but you don’t need to sand all the clear off, just a light scuff with 600 grit will work great, making sure there are no shiny spots. This specific blender is not for using on top of fresh clear. There is a different blending agent that is used to blend fresh clear coat into existing clear coat, but that is typically used when doing small, spot blends.

General Paint, our paint supplier, is an OEM paint line, so it has pretty much any OEM color you would need. This clear is recommended for high production shops. It’s not really cost effective for large projects, it’s made to get vehicles or parts out of the booth and ready to deliver as fast as possible, without sacrificing quality.

No, you can’t spray color directly over it, you will need a primer or sealer. It would be like spraying your color directly over body filler.

Thank you! 🙏🏻

For the price, they’re not too bad. If you’re looking for an inexpensive gun, the best replica gun we’ve sprayed so far is the Avalon WLS400. Unless you’ve used an Iwata LPH400 for a long time, you probably wouldn’t notice the difference between the performance of the Avalon and the Iwata.

@@autopaintplusid4197 I have the Iwata Wider4 and some how I have damage the nozzle so im looking for new gun. I did order the x-2020 (85USD including shipping) Its an updated version of the SK-2020 you use in the video. I have seen the Avalon WLS400 and the split nozzle design looks cool and maybe I was just stupid that I wanted to give this gun a try

I have the air green awesome I love it

We show multiple angles of the door at the end of the video 👍🏻

I would recommend going to your nearest automotive paint store and see if they have what you need! Sadly we can’t ship out of our area.

It’s a high build polyester primer, it’s not going to lay out like clear coat. It’s meant to give you a thick consistent layer for you to easily block out any imperfections, so you’ll be sanding that orange peel down anyway.

The primer is a just a 1K sealer, the color is from GenRock put in a Spray Max can, the clear is a 2K Glamour Clear from Spray Max, and the Spot Blender is also from Spray Max.

This isn’t meant to replace primer, it’s meant to replace glazing putty. Instead of doing a skim coat with a spreader you do it with a gun. It has a lot of the same properties as feather fill but this product has better film build and it sands far better than feather fill does.

The fan pattern shouldn’t change, you may need to adjust your fluid a little bit though.

It mixes 2:1 with reducer 👍🏻

There are a few possible reasons it would do that. Incorrect air pressure, wrong size fluid tip, incorrect reduction ratio, etc. Check your air pressure, tip size, and your fluid adjustment knob. If it’s non of those, it’s most likely a reduction or application issue. Hope that helps!

Much appreciated! It’s been a fun process learning how to operate this equipment.

We usually use thinner when we have a lot of adjusting to do, like a new gun out of the box or after disassembling the gun. You’ll need to do minor adjustments when you put your paint in the gun as well.

@@autopaintplusid4197 thank you, really informative content 👏

You want to do the main body work with a standard filler first and get everything reasonably straight then follow it with the spray filler. It’s like using a glazing putty, just more effective than trying to spread it evenly with a spreader.

@@autopaintplusid4197 Thank you! That makes more sense to me now. I'm working this thing slowly lol!

No, it’s like clear base coat. It gives you a “wet bed” for your metallics to lay more evenly when doing a blend.

I think you misunderstood what this product is. This is body filler. But instead of spreading a coat of filler by hand, which will be uneven no matter how hard you try, you are spraying it through your gun to ensure even coverage over the entire surface. This isn’t changing the body work process, just how you apply you products.

We’re glad you enjoyed the video! Acetone will work ok but it evaporates really quickly. We recommend a virgin lacquer thinner to clean your gun after spraying. Good luck!

Not quite, it has a much higher build than a high build primer and sands nicer. It would be similar to doing a skim coat with glazing putty, but instead of spreading it your spraying it. That way you end up with an even amount on the panel.

Yep! There are a couple ways to do it but that’s probably the most common.

One of the more better more proper techniques is about 30% base paint if its not a metallic. Metallics U go a little heavier. If U have an average cheapo gun usually 2 coats is norm and look for oppies misses can come back to bite ya. There are problematic areas when mirrors are left in place as well as where wheel arches stand out notably some of the Fords Hyundai cars got them wheel arch areas that make ya back yourself up some so the gun doesn't give U any mercy as you back away from the panel to readjust your body. This stuff is perfect to make sure you got some color already in the areas. Some times if there is still paint on the panel or car I just concentrate on the worked areas and those sunken areas by the wheel arches is all I do with the stuff and that will save U time & money in the material if U pick up the habit of noticing there are only certain areas that really require this product. Otherwise U can even tint cheap primers too. This stuff also has thickness a body to it as to fill pores and slight sanding marks. Painting a whole panel is one thing but not necessary where there is still the same color present. I mainly use this stuff where I put the body work or got down to bare metal or I got areas where the clear coat peeled up & sanded a heavier. That is what this product is for as opposed to doing whole panels and bumper covers. I mean if its a totally new bumper cover no body work I will just tint a cheap primer sealer it saves cash and comes out fine. It is where body work is right smack in the middle of the original paint is where this product is intended to be used.

Sadly we can’t ship outside our designated boundaries but there are a lot of auto paint stores that sell similar products! I would look around your area and see if there are any near you!

It will fill small chips, dings, and scratches but you’ll still want to make sure you block those areas well to make sure there are no low spots.

Most of that will shrink back when it dries, but it’s a high build primer, you can sand it out.
