LMAO... looks so easy on TH-cam until someone actually breaks it down step by step and shows you what a major pain in the ass it is! My next one will be solid color lol
@@SendItJonBoats For sure! You did an amazing job. But I'm honest enough with myself to know that I don't have the mental endurance to take this on and finish with my sanity intact! Keep up the good work. Love your videos.
I never had a boat before until i saw one of your videos, and i discovered happiness... Now i got 2, outboard and mud buddy. I'm such a happy scooter ...
Nobody that I’ve seen is this professional in both video production and boat building. Very inspiring I’ve been dreamihg up a jon build with pods and a predator kit I would love an addition to my bass boat
Recapitulating: 1, first paint base. 2, We apply first base of Stikers. 3, second paint base. 4, We apply second layer of Stikers. 5, Third and last paint base. 6, Remove all stikers. Is it right?
Great work in doing a very in-depth explanation. But this is way more work than necessary. From my experience, it's best to start with the lightest color and work to the darkest for a real deep camo look. I guess I should consider doing a video of how I camo paint stuff. It's been a while, but looks the most legit.
Wasn't going for a real deep camo look, I was going for something close to Mossy Oak Bottomland. You can put the colors on in whatever order you want so long as it looks the way you want it too... and this looks exactly how I wanted it to look.
Thank you, I kinda mentioned it randomly thoughout the video, but it ended up being 2 quarts of tan, 2 quarts of green, 2 quarts of black, and 1 quart of matte clear coat.
Forgot to answer the other question, I had the stencils made at a local vinyl shop. FInd a t shirt or vinyl company near you and they should be able to make you some.
Great video series. Thanks! I used one hit wonder on your Rec and it worked like a dream. I mixed the activator/hardener in the base coat and it’s super tough. Think I still need to spray clear coat on it? I bought semi gloss accidentally so I’m hesitant to spray it and make it to shiny.
Thanks Kaden... tons of work but it was worth it. Wait till you see the next video with the gator glide and the whole boat painted.... looks freakin swwweetttt!!!!
@@Rwseigworth Gator glide video is coming soon... The motor video I can't wait for either. It's going to be nuts. Hope to get out on the water and do some speed testing in the next few weeks.
What size compressor are you using to do the paint job with? Love your work and the thought you put into every video that you put out for us guys and followers. I kinda like the paint job when it was just the base color black and the bark yellow with the yellow pirate flags. It really stood out to me. Thanks brother for all the time you spend away from your family for this group of people. You should have put the send it JonBoat logo on the boat somewhere. That’s your call sign of excellence.
Thanks BigBoyBob, I really appreciate that... which is exactly why I make these videos. I enjoy showing people what I do for a living, and I also enjoy makin videos that are entertaining to watch. I actually did like it too when I had the stencils over the black base paint, it looked cool. My shop has a 7.5hp 80 gallon compressor that I use for the paint booth and sand blasting, I have another compressor to run other air tools, and the activator sprayguns I use for dipping. Its a whole system with refrigerated air dryer, cooling loops, and 5 stage filtration. I am probably going to put my logo on the inside of the boat before I finish it and probably on the trailer as well.
I have never heard of that... you mean use denatured alcohol, just spray some over the stencils then blow it off? Sounds like a winner, I will have to try that. Would have saved me a ton of time.
@@SendItJonBoats isopropyl alcohol yeah it gets under the sticky and they pretty much just fall off, we use it for the hot glue that we use for our dent pulling tools
@@Gunsmith-oj9gk oh cool, I am going to try that. I do a ton of stencil work on hydro dipping and cerakote so that will work out great. I will let ya know how it turns out.
That sounds like it should work just fine.. The only thing I would be concerned about is that doing this style paint, you would be applying the alchohol to a paint that hasn't had a clear coat applied yet. Y'all don't think this would affect the paint? I just got all of my stickers made and I am about to do my boat, so I would love an easier way to remove the 128,942,103 stickers that will be on my boat.
@@darussteverson1562 Thats a good point, but also worth experimenting with. I know dentured alcohol does not remove the paint as bad as other types of alcohol so I may try it and see.
Awesome work on the boat, nice to see someone as detail oriented as me! I have a question totally unrelated to the boat though. Where did you get that camo hoodie you are wearing? I would like to have some made for my business as well. Thanks!
If you use the same gun for paint that you do clear you run the risk of colored paint going into your clear coat and messing up the clear. Most people don't clean their spray guns good enough between uses and having paint flakes in your clear will contaminate it. If you can clean really well inbetween uses you can get away with using one gun... but I di this for a living so I do not take any chances. You can do the gator glide before or after, it does not matter.
As a average person wanting to paint a boat what would be a decent size/brand of air compressor to be able to paint/clear coat a boat ? I have a 16x44 I’m going to paint but finding a good budget air compressor is turning out to be rocket surgery.
Air compressor and budget do not belong in the same sentence! LOL Best bet is to search marketplace and craigslist and get as big as you can afford, dont get anything less than 60 gallon two stage
How much of each color did you end up using I plan on doing this to my new boat but I’m doing it as budget as possible paint I don’t want to skimp on paint but I’d prefer not to buy to much paint
Ok so after a year of sending it, how’s the paint? I’m getting ready to do a saltwater center console and like the color options for the metallic of OHW
Ok where can we get stencils, i also want to incorporate some LSU AND Fleur-de-lis into my camo patten , also putting float tubes a nd my custom logos, 16X48 jon boateaux, sw la here , will probably go back with steering wheel out board
Send it! How much of each color did it take for the boat? I’m about to tackle this endeavor and was wondering if the half pint would be enough. 1648 as well. It seemed you didn’t use much paint at all.
I will tell you, but it is super top secret G-14 classified. Just kidding... it is an old body timers body shop trick I learned many years ago. Naptha is the primary chemical in white camp fuel, the stuff use in camping lanterns. The brand I like best is Crown White Gas, sold at walmart.
Hey all this one hit wonder paint says specifically designed for hydrographic applications and says you have to dip it after applying the paint. This is still good and lasts for boats etc if you do no dipping? I don’t know anything about hydro dipping no idea what any of that means
I use it as regular paint all the time for a living, and it works great. I have painted quite a few boats with it any its held up, no dipping required.
Thanks, I went over that in the video series, and I can't remember off the top of my head the exact measurements, but I did make sure to mention how much I used in each video... it was about a quart and a half per color,, 3 colors, plus a quart for clear coat.
Dang…i watched all 3 videos and i loved everything except the fact that you didn’t put in any footage of peeling off the stencils. Why not? Such a big conclusion to the work and it was left out. I was excited to see the layers peel off and see the designs come to life. Oh well.
Probably after christmas. Once I get the trailer done in the next week or two, I will be doing some speed testing with the pods and different mud motor combs to see how it does. Then I have to announce what crazy motor build I got going on behind the scenes... and then it will be interior time.
The boat was too long and wouldnt fit in the paint booth... trust me I would have much rather been in the paint booth! LOL. I hope I can upgrade this year and get a bigger building so I can fit a bigger booth in there so it will be easier to paint boats.
This series of videos has given me all the information I need to make an informed decision to paint my Jon boat one solid color.

LOL.... I need to get some more unicorn footage soon. Maybe when we take the boat out again I will.
That is the sickest jonboat I have EVER seen.. nothing even close.
Thank you! I appreciate that!
Love the Jolly Roger flags on the side. Great camo job also. You do great work watch all your hydro dip videos.
Thanks Tony! Got many more cool paint jobs to come. The paint on project pocket rocket is going to be insane.
Dude thats a slick paint job🎯 ✌️

How strong are those pods ? Could you step on them ? Great job on the boat. The paint is awsome, thank you
Sure can, I got a video about the pods and I stand on them in the video.

I always use a clear coat but if you mixed the hardner with the paint then it should be fine just like that.
Love the hard work

Exactly what color paints did u use?
dark beige, black, and the green color was custom mix
So cold out. That’s t shirt and shorts temps
Too cold for me bro! I got that swamp blood and it needs to stay warm!
What vinyl did you use for your stencil? I didn't see it in your description. although I should have my wife look maybe she can find it. lol
Avery Denison SF-231 high heat, same stuff we use for cerakote.
Great video mate, have you ever tried alcohol and a blow gun to take the stencils off? So fast and works great

Any idea what brand?
@@christophercooper1789 It was some no name brand, but I search for mossy oak hoodies and they called it a "retro camo" hoodie.
Man this is a bad ass paint job! Gotta question at the end of the video, what is that song and who is the artist?
Thanks Dave, I buy the music from epidemicsounds.com. That song is called Greasy Boots by Eludant.
Preciate it man!
@@davedoughty410 no problem, anytime
You pointed out you use a designated gun for clear coat, why?

2 quarts of each color is a safe amount on this boat. 1648. For a full one color paint job I usually buy a gallon.
Ok so after a year of sending it, how’s the paint? I’m getting ready to do a saltwater center console and like the color options for the metallic of OHW
Still holding up just fine. I paint boats all the time with OHW and it works great

I had them custom made, it was very expensive,

How or where did you get those stencils?
Is the clear coat necessary? What's the risk of not applying it?
yes it is necessary becuase this is a 2 stage paint. The clear coat protects the paint.
How much does this whole project cost to set up to include paint guns and the gator Glide to finish it up?
Not really sure, I will add it all up and do a video. Good idea.
Hey man, you ever come up with a total cost for going this route?
Can I use the red metallic and add flake to the paint before shooting it?
If you want you can OHW sells metallic paints so you don't have to mix the flake in.
