Awesome work.. straight glass finish without a buff that's all of our goals at the end of every job. I have the euro spray gun it's pretty decent. As long as it's clean after every job, it will work great for a long time.. well done, maybe in a few more weeks, I will start my shop for the booth.
I recently became an automotive painter at a body shop in Portland Maine, without having any prior schooling or training. Had a unique opportunity to learn from a body tech who used to be a painter and be fast tracked to take over as the sole full time painter for our shop in February . I have to say that without your videos and constant rewatches of them I would not be where I am already. You’re amazing for helping the enthusiast and the young people in the industry.
Great job and great advice. I am a retired painter and it’s nice to see someone doing it right. I see so many “painters “ doing things the wrong way on TH-cam. You’re not that guy!
I just painted my first black car since I did a complete respray on a brand new Mercury Cougar for a dealership back in the early 80's that came in with acid rain damage. Thanks to your channel I laid a super smooth finish. As for the Cougar...well ford set the bar pretty low back then so no comment.
I'm old school (siphon gun) use a Binx #7 . Been soaking up all the info I can get from you on every video you post on shooting with gravity fed guns. To me you are the GOAT! Thank you.
Nothing wrong with old school. Those old Binks and Sharpe spay guns turned out plenty of fantastic paint jobs. I have adapted to the new stuff and it is nice. But paint is still only as good as what is under it.
Brian, I really appreciate you sharing your wealth of knowledge with us. I've been a DIY painter for many years but you offer so many tips and trips that I've noticed an improvement already after watching just a few of your videos, Thank you!
Found you a few months ago. I cannot say thank you enough. You have lined out all the info needed to pull off fantastic results for a confident novience. Cheers!!
Brian one of the best take aways for me on this vid is not to freak out spraying base when you see some sand scratches. I’m used to single stage and it covers a lot of sins! I’m breaking my truck into sections and on the first one I freaked out stopped the show and wet sanded my hood after two coats of base then came back the next day applied a third and coat then two coats of clear. My hood did come out like glass very excited! I set up my pro lite with a 1.2 and T110 cap. Thank you for your knowledge!
Brian, you are a real master of your trade and an excellent teacher, too. I was a body shop painter way back in 1970 using acrylic lacquers and enamels and I find your videos to be quite fascinating as well as the advances in the technology. Kudos! Keep it up!
Love your channel, I have been watching you for a long time. I’m 💯 percent veteran and now that I had both of my leg surgery and getting better can’t wait to buy a spray gun and try doing it myself as a hobby. At 62 and always wanted to learn it and now getting strong can’t wait. I hope , I can get some advice on what I need for a setup. Thank you for your videos.
I have been watching Paint Society for over a year and the lessons, tips, product reviews, gave me the confidence to do more. So I just painted my 1st full car in urethane base/clear last week. But I really learn a lot by doing it; like watching a video on how to swim you, learn by getting into the water! But it would I would have never jumped into the water in the first place without Paint Society's videos. (and BTW the job came out OK, Not good-- not bad-- but much better than how the car looked before.)
“Having a spray booth does not grant you the right to think you’re gonna have a clean job” I wish that was plastered on billboards across America.. definitely top 3 misconceptions about painting
You're videos have helped me with 3 car paint jobs done under a carport, each turning out epic, after cutting and polishing. I'm about to clear a carbon fiber fender for a Honda, and watching this video helped me clear out the cobwebs! I'm also floored that the Lexus ES300H did not come with a metallic paint job! My Lexus GS400 still has a beautiful 25 year old pearl white factory paint job, with rainbow sparkles in between the base coat and clear. I repainted the bumper and hood: base, pearls, clear, and each turned out ok on the 3rd attempt. Too much air flow, dust and bugs!
@@PaintSociety Brian, you can't even imagine how many Pro's, and especially DIY's you've helped over the years! "Finishing work" must be perfect, and it takes dozens of paint jobs to begin to learn how to get it right, but we have to do it right on the first job. And when we do, we owe a lot to you Brother!
I wanted to say thank you for all if your videos and time you put into these Videos. Ive been a subscriber for over a yr and because of you i just painted my 2020 Infiniti qx80 Sonic blue and it came out Beautifully. And i owe it all to you and Trigger Man!!! Thank yall so much
Love my DV1-B Basecoat gun. No gun out there lays metallics or pearls like the DV1-B. Tell you another really awsome gun that does almost as good at base but does better than the DV1-C clear gun at clear is that Ani 200 Black Skull Edition i have been playing wìth that comes with digital manometer guage and 3 air caps, one for clear, a WB for base, and an hvlp cap. Brilliant spray gun
Amazing painter love your channel brother, would love to no more about your journey as a painter brother, I’m a apprentice in Australia just trying to make it, haven’t got my chance to really work at a good shop with a good tradesman until recently I moved to a shop now I’m getting a chance to paint more, but my problem is I either spray dry or to wet and get runs, happy I found your channel sir and I am learning so much from your wealth of knowledge once again thank you you are appreciated
Good gravy.. I need to seriously invest in a decent gun. I think I've gotten carpal tunnel from sanding all the orange peel from this fricken rustoleum turbo. Tried to go the cheep route, now paying for it. Literally and physically. Thank you for all your videos. Informative and humbling...
I just painted some trim for my cabinets in my garage full of sawdust and drywall dust using a plastic $50 paint gun/compressor powered by a motor that sounds like a cheap vacuum and it came out great.
Very nice job. I really like the detail you put into your videos. I’ve only been watching for about two months now but I have already seen a couple of things that I need to improve on and one you mentioned in this video is patience 🤷🏼♂️. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. It really does help
Thanks for showing us how to set up the guns. always wanted to learn how. blind in one eye. What do you think about those Luma lights? They go on your spraygun .I thank that’s what they call it. Looks good . No Fish eyes
Good morning Brian Congratulations on your Son. Been watching your channel for awhile. Paint my first job metal fence post s. I used a 3m gun that a buddy gave. Super easy to clean just like you said. I bought the Astro gun you recommended. Will use it to paint a Cj-5 jeep I have.
Great technique. Its only paint. I cant get my head around spraying my 69 bug dark bright teal with the fenders on. Whats the chances the metallic 16:38 might match after all?
You are my school master Brian, your videos have been a tremendous help eversince I started spraying. How do I benefit from one of those demo guns though? Keep up the excellent work bro, it's really a blessing watching your videos.
You should do a vidoe on how to help keep work cleaner in a cross draft booth om sparying in one and im having some work come out dirty but at my last shop i sprayed in a down draft booth and rarely had dirt problems
Great work and Tips Brian love the work as I always say prep prep &clean before paint.Cheers from Phil in Sydney hope one day I might be lucky and win that gun cheers to your new baby again.
Aide Memoire 1. Double base coat flash off time if you do not have a paint booth - be patient. Patience can avoid solvent pop 2. First clear coat goes on dry(er) to avoid runs 3. Have referred to previous video of how to adjust fan to optimum setting when psi gauge gives a little jump (by 1 or 2 psi). I set my fluid at 2.5 turns out for my clear coat rather than that described at 4:50 but then set the fan as shown from 05:40. Worked better than i had so far managed 👍 th-cam.com/video/twDXW3yd2_4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qvTFTiyCCiGf6Hhj 4. Anti static - used tumble dryer sheets 5. Read the product sheet 6. Heat product to circa 25c (maybe more) 7. Patience
That DV1 atomization is incredible. That gun is on my list of spray guns I want to try. It helps that you are a talented, knowledgeable painter as well. Keep up the awesome videos! 👏
That’s a sweet paint job there! Really liked how that clear laid nice and flat n shiny. Could you please let me know what primer, paint, and clear guns you would recommend? I have done a bit of shooting paint back years ago. Kind of out of touch with the good stuff is anymore. I have a black Chevy truck that needs total fresh job. Also have a street bike that I want to do a candy red on. Awesome vids on your channel dude!
I have been watching this channel for a few months Now. N finally feeling like I wanna comment and share some if my experiences. I have been using some of ur trick and they have been working great. I see you have so many paint guns. I am getting started n I have 2. A base n clear. 😢I'd love to have that many guns to shoot with. 😊
Love your Channel man! As a used car dealer in clearwater, I started to learning how to paint small stuff or touch up small scratches cause of you. #Keepupthegoodwork
Hi Brian. Congrats for son😊. I'm from Poland and watch all your videos. Great content,learned a lot. Thanks for all the knowledge you are giving us. Would like to ask for some help. I need to buy a gun for primer,especially for epoxy and dont know what to choose. Thanks and best wishes from Europe 😊
Great video Brian ,very clean,is that static gun worth it? I like that new dv1 base gun,and yes patients is key to a nice paint job and a good cleaning
Just curious as to why you don't release the fluid trigger on each pass to prevent paint buildup, chance of runs and wasted paint? I was taught by the book at a paint and body school 45 years ago and a lot has changed over the years but technique has stayed the same. I enjoyed watching your video but it bothers me to see painters spray that way. God bless
I love watching your videos I always learn something new. I am a hobby painter but I am definitely better from applying what I've learned from your channel. I'd love to see all your paint guns, I betbyour collection is huge! Did I hear you correctly when you said your giving one away? How do I apply if it's not too late?
Hello Brian! Was wondering if a gallon of primer, gallon of base, and gallon of clear is enough to paint my 2005 honda civic coupe. Thanks for your videos they really help me.
Brian after watching your videos for months, im now doing my paint project on my car. I hope everything goes well at the end. But one question Brian, my primer is very dusty after the aplication and why is that?
Great video Brian! I see that you went over the same areas on the car on the 2nd coat of clear and really layed it on heavy. I'm doing a matte clear currently. Is that advisable for all clearcoats? Thanks again!!
Brian have you tested many Low Pressure guns? I'm wondering if these might be a better fit for garage DIY'ers with smaller compressors and worse ventelation environments. If overspray/ atomization is reduced and there is less airborne paint, maybe this will yield better results?
I’m doing a restoration job which includes complete bar metal and epoxy primer the car. Im wanting to do base and clear on the panels but could I use single stage in the door jambs and areas not seen as much. Underside of trunk and hood etc.
So I own a Devilbiss Tekna Pro Lite. Spraying clear and base with trigger depressed what should base and clear be roughly at for psi? Also i noticed when you were setting gun up for clear you pulled trigger all the way back and then turned knob in till it just started to advance trigger and stopped there. Do u fully pull trigger all the way open when spraying clear with the optimal psi. Love your videos! So much valuable information. Keep it up!
What was the trick with gun setting, paint mix ratio or application process.for that ultra glass finish off the gun. What thinner % do you use compared to TDS on the clear coat? Great channel by the way. Thank you.
Can you tell me where to buy microfiber cloth to wipe down the car, tape to use and the plastic sheets you use to cover the car? Thanks for a great channel
Hi brain what is that 100 gun you tried and liked it had 3 tips and you used the 1.3 and like it very MUTCH I can't seem to find that video so please let me know I believe it was also low pressure too thank you brain I don't want any fish eyes thanks. Any thing on the Binks MG1????
Love your videos. 2 questions, how would you go about dealing with nibs on a metallic or pearl paint? Sand it and spray another coat of base over it or..? Also, just as a super rough idea, what would you charge to respray a 2006 Subaru STi in factory World Rally Blue Mica (Code 02C)? I'm considering it and wondering a ballpark figure that I would be looking at. Thanks in advance!
Great video. I’ve been watching your TH-cam channel for a while trying to understand how automotive finishes work and how to apply them. How can I apply to win one of your demo guns used in your videos? Thanks
your first coat looks 10x better than my finished coat and with me trying to get a good finish. It always looks peely and chunky and dry even though i put it on wet because sometimes it sags
Hey Brian, would love to get a static gun... will any of them work for paint? I have an old sharps hvlp but it's suction fed. Use an older Sagola gravity fed mostly. Looking to buy a dedicated clear gun as well as basecost gun. Can you recommend a couple? Thanks Dusty.
First coat is not thin at all lol also theres so many things that have influence on paint yob, from clearcoat, humidity, temerature airflow hardners, reducer and also depend what clear u use spraygun, nozle and so on. I work this for more than 35 yrs, also i was tehnical support for standox more than 12 yrs in that time i saw everything, from topp bodyshops wiyh poorvresults to the barns with super results. Bottom line is its aways about guys whi do the yob. This is good for some people who start to work
Seeing you're video's over 2 years and last month I sprayed my car. Don't over think it. it's just paint. It was my motivation to do it. Thanks a lot.
Thank you!
Its all about the prep and finish.
Did the same on my third project now
Awesome work.. straight glass finish without a buff that's all of our goals at the end of every job.
I have the euro spray gun it's pretty decent. As long as it's clean after every job, it will work great for a long time.. well done, maybe in a few more weeks, I will start my shop for the booth.

Throw him some bucks!!
There is any vaccancy bro❤
If you're able to do the job, make sure they pay you accordingly. They may try to low ball citing your lack if formal training.
@@Matt-kt9nmyessir what he said
My daughter is getting ready for auto collision repair at our local tech school. I told her to start watching your channel.
I'm always amazed to see clear coat being sprayed on that heavily and not running at all
Yes I’m amazed also in Montana you can’t get away with that unless you wait for summer without a spray booth.
Great job and great advice. I am a retired painter and it’s nice to see someone doing it right. I see so many “painters “ doing things the wrong way on TH-cam. You’re not that guy!
Curious on psi as well
I just painted my first black car since I did a complete respray on a brand new Mercury Cougar for a dealership back in the early 80's that came in with acid rain damage. Thanks to your channel I laid a super smooth finish. As for the Cougar...well ford set the bar pretty low back then so no comment.

Kandy man has tons of knowledge in this field so I am always watching his videos.
Hey brother man I love your videos an they help me out a lot I’m just starting to paint for my shop and you’re really my only teacher lol
Thank you, sir for all the advice. It saved me a few thousand dollars and a month of sanding.
Your son was just born and your back to posting great videos? Dude.... You're incredible!!!
He has been so good that i had some down time to post 😇
You mean you didn’t get the 90 days off to bond with him ? Lol

Good gravy.. I need to seriously invest in a decent gun. I think I've gotten carpal tunnel from sanding all the orange peel from this fricken rustoleum turbo. Tried to go the cheep route, now paying for it. Literally and physically. Thank you for all your videos. Informative and humbling...

Looks good . No Fish eyes
Good morning Brian
Congratulations on your Son.
Been watching your channel for awhile. Paint my first job metal fence post s. I used a 3m gun that a buddy gave. Super easy to clean just like you said.
I bought the Astro gun you recommended. Will use it to paint a Cj-5 jeep I have.
Great technique. Its only paint. I cant get my head around spraying my 69 bug dark bright teal with the fenders on. Whats the chances the metallic 16:38 might match after all?
I would love one of those spray guns. I use my devilbiss tekna base coat for everything.
You are my school master Brian, your videos have been a tremendous help eversince I started spraying. How do I benefit from one of those demo guns though? Keep up the excellent work bro, it's really a blessing watching your videos.

thanks for having these great videos, you explain everything great, fixing to paint my 95 GMC truck and if it turns out good then my 2008 Saturn Sky

Thank you Brian! I have leaned a ton of knowledge and great tips from you! Keep up the great work man!

Hello Brian! Was wondering if a gallon of primer, gallon of base, and gallon of clear is enough to paint my 2005 honda civic coupe. Thanks for your videos they really help me.
That thing turned into a mirror! Great job!
WHAT a paint job!!
Brian after watching your videos for months, im now doing my paint project on my car. I hope everything goes well at the end. But one question Brian, my primer is very dusty after the aplication and why is that?
DV1 for base and WS400 for clear is currently the best setup on the market for me :-)
been watching for sometime now looking to paint my own truck with your tips thanks
Great video Brian! I see that you went over the same areas on the car on the 2nd coat of clear and really layed it on heavy. I'm doing a matte clear currently. Is that advisable for all clearcoats? Thanks again!!
Brian have you tested many Low Pressure guns? I'm wondering if these might be a better fit for garage DIY'ers with smaller compressors and worse ventelation environments. If overspray/ atomization is reduced and there is less airborne paint, maybe this will yield better results?
I’m doing a restoration job which includes complete bar metal and epoxy primer the car. Im wanting to do base and clear on the panels but could I use single stage in the door jambs and areas not seen as much. Underside of trunk and hood etc.
Do you use solvent paint? We use waterborne Axalta and we pretty much put the base on in one heavy coat.
So I own a Devilbiss Tekna Pro Lite. Spraying clear and base with trigger depressed what should base and clear be roughly at for psi? Also i noticed when you were setting gun up for clear you pulled trigger all the way back and then turned knob in till it just started to advance trigger and stopped there. Do u fully pull trigger all the way open when spraying clear with the optimal psi. Love your videos! So much valuable information. Keep it up!
How much air pressure are you useing. Sounds like a fighter jet taking off. Looks great
Im new to automotive painting love your videos
I over thank it😅 but I was still able to get my car painted thanks to your videos 👍
What brand of clear coat are you using?
What was the trick with gun setting, paint mix ratio or application process.for that ultra glass finish off the gun. What thinner % do you use compared to TDS on the clear coat? Great channel by the way. Thank you.
Your videos helped me get where I am today! Thank you so much!!
Can you tell me where to buy microfiber cloth to wipe down the car, tape to use and the plastic sheets you use to cover the car? Thanks for a great channel
Hey great video as always. Wondering what set up you used on the WS400?
Quick question I know you did a video a while back about the prices of paint guns could you tell me what's the best gun for 100 bucks that I can get
Hi brain what is that 100 gun you tried and liked it had 3 tips and you used the 1.3 and like it very MUTCH I can't seem to find that video so please let me know I believe it was also low pressure too thank you brain I don't want any fish eyes thanks.
Any thing on the Binks MG1????
Love your videos. 2 questions, how would you go about dealing with nibs on a metallic or pearl paint? Sand it and spray another coat of base over it or..? Also, just as a super rough idea, what would you charge to respray a 2006 Subaru STi in factory World Rally Blue Mica (Code 02C)? I'm considering it and wondering a ballpark figure that I would be looking at. Thanks in advance!
Is there a diffrence between 2:1 vs 4:1 clear on how it lays on panels?
Love all the tips, fun to see you work !!!
Great video. I’ve been watching your TH-cam channel for a while trying to understand how automotive finishes work and how to apply them. How can I apply to win one of your demo guns used in your videos? Thanks
Awesome job I'm learning more and more with every episode
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR MASTER CLASS IN THIS VIDEO, I AM LEARNING FROM YOUR EXPERIENCES AND GUIDANCE. GREETINGS FROM LIMA PERU
your first coat looks 10x better than my finished coat and with me trying to get a good finish. It always looks peely and chunky and dry even though i put it on wet because sometimes it sags
What brand is ur gun? And what are ur gun settings

Hi Brian, what ratios did you mix the clear at? Did you thin it a bit more than 10%?
the green flooring in your booth you wetted with something ? the green stuff you called pig mat ? where do i get it
Hey Brian, would love to get a static gun... will any of them work for paint? I have an old sharps hvlp but it's suction fed. Use an older Sagola gravity fed mostly. Looking to buy a dedicated clear gun as well as basecost gun. Can you recommend a couple? Thanks Dusty.
Hi like the video, what kid of mask (respirator) are you using? Best regards Zoran
Awesome job mate it looks so mint Thank you!!!!
How do you go about giving away the spray guns after demo? Getting ready to spray my 74 Nova in a metallic gray and could really use an awesome gun 😁.
This turned out so nice Thanks for sharing.
Hey Brian just a quick question here do you use a hvlp or lvlp and which is best?
Is there any difference between a wet coat and dry coat other than speed and distance from surface?
Great training, as always. Thanks!
You said to let your 1st coat of clear coat heat up for a bit, do you bake your booth? If so how long and how hot?
Or do you just turn the booth temp up while it’s in spray mode.
Hey Brian, what clearcoat are you using? i see you listed links for some of the products you use but none of the paint items.
wow those guns are amazing brother
First coat is not thin at all lol also theres so many things that have influence on paint yob, from clearcoat, humidity, temerature airflow hardners, reducer and also depend what clear u use spraygun, nozle and so on. I work this for more than 35 yrs, also i was tehnical support for standox more than 12 yrs in that time i saw everything, from topp bodyshops wiyh poorvresults to the barns with super results. Bottom line is its aways about guys whi do the yob. This is good for some people who start to work
Is it possible to look over your comment and edit it, because there’s a lot of typos, and I’m trying to understand what you’re saying.
