GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!!
Thanks for the update. She looks awesome!
Yep. You answered my questions on rustoleum bases. What your telling me is, Use all your clear paint up.
After the base n pearl goes down. That way its thick enuff to cut n buff. Your old truck looks fine.
Paid $3k for a 93 Chevy truck 100 years ago. Have $6k in R and R every rolling piece on it. Now a $1000 paint job and I will be happy. Beats a 2025 Silverado by $40k. Thanks
What a difference! Question; What kind of 'cut & buff' *job* would require a D.A. sander over doing it by hand?
I wouldn't say the job requires one way or the other it's just you don't want to risk taking too much material off and you can still cut and buff it and get your shine back but the level of clear coat left might be lacking and a year later it starts cracking so you just have to know what you're working with there's little gauges you can buy as well that tell you the thickness of the material
Looking good! Thanks for the update. Time to enjoy using the truck for its intended purpose, work. Cheers! 😎👍🛻🏁🏁
Perfect timing. I need to do the same and haven’t had much luck. Thanks!
That looks a whole lot better for sure! I think though if it had been me since I had to re-sand it anyway I would have just put one or two additional coats of clear on it. Medium to heavy
Awesome. I actually got a buffer for free in great condition. When Im finished doing chemotherapy I plan on getting a project car and doing my own paint job using the things i have learned from you and GT's channel. He does Rustoleum paintjobs too. I did do this many years ago cutting and buffing. I failed at it but i still got a good shine out of it but next time for sure I wanna do it right with the 2k Clear and so on. i used rustoleum clear out of the can and it was terrible back in the day.
Would u say 4 coats of clear then 800 grit 1500 2000 then 3000?
Yeah you would have to check the can on the clear you use and make sure you have enough mil thickness they also make a little gauge You can put on it to measure the thickness of the material on the panel but typically four coats is plenty enough clear to do a good amount of cutting and buffing
Looking good Jonathan! Great video Brother
Nicely played
Nice job
This happened to me the last couple paint jobs I did. I think I had too much air vs material. Didn’t atomize correctly and I had the gun too far away and moving too fast. I should have had re cleared it.
Another great one also 1 question so you said you start with 1000g is that the heavyest you always start with?😊
If you need anything more aggressive then you might as well wet sand back down and re-clear it but you can work your way up from 800 grit just depends on how long you wanna be sanding lol thanks for watching!
Nice work!
It looks good from here! Just curious, at this point, could you top coat it again with clear?
Yep if your not satisfied you can re-clear it thanks for watching!
It the paint gun. I need to buy another paint gun! 😂😂😂
Lol always something to blame things on 🤣😎👍

Well, I'm going to be the party pooper here- I couldn't leave anything like that. AAMOF, I just stripped the top of a 28y/o clothes drier that I replaced the motor and some bearings in that had damaged enamel on top: I cleaned it up, sprayed it and some of it wrinkled on me, some parts were perfect but the bad areas were about half as bad as your orange peel, so I decided to chemically strip the whole thing and re-spray the entire thing, and this is something that literally maybe 4 other people will see in my laundry room, IT DOESN'T MATTER, but I wanted to do it right (I'm glad I did it, I used Rustoleum appliance enamel and it came out perfect, it literally looks brand new)
Yeah, your shop truck looks better than what it started as and will protect the body of the truck for a while, but honestly, that orange peel looks terrible, even after the cut and buff on the tailgate it doesn't look much better (and paint jobs typically look much better in video). I couldn't drive something that looked like that, it's worse than faded and pealing paint (which shows age and wear, not really something someone did to it), where this looks like it was done by someone who doesn't know what they were doing if it gets left- please don't take it that I'm saying that you don't know what you're doing, that's just the impression that leaving this gives, a worse impression than if you never messed with it.
I've wondered about your fender spray outs, clearly I watch them all because they do show the effect, but typically you have some fairly heavy orange peel on them and I have wondered if you could cut and buff them to a good hobby car finish (something not perfect but good enough that you'd be proud of it at the local car show).
I for one would love to see you put the effort into flowcoating this, as well as seeing what it takes to get a few of your fender spray outs to look glassy smooth (probably good practice before attacking the truck). I think it would be good for both you and your audience.
You should of started with 800 and you wouldn't of gave up so fast talking about your not trying to get it perfect. If you weren't trying to get it perfect why even do it. If your trying to grow a business u would really want to get it as perfect as possible. It's just a shop truck but it's actually a big example of what you do
No I didn't give up on it at all I was getting in the danger zone of the clear coat thickness and I didn't wanna take too much off it's better at this point to just flow coat after all the work that's gone into it than take the clear coat down to nothing just to get a perfect looking finish temporarily but thanks for watching!
I'm not trying to bash you at all brotha please don't take it as that. I like and have watched a lot of ur videos. You put a lot of work into that truck and it could look a whole lot better if got it all out.
@jeffsimpson7840 no offense taken my man yeah we're not done yet I just figure my work would be better spent flow coating it
@@WHITLEYAUTOWORKS your probably right. I'll be waiting for the next video
