Well done my man...before I give my thoughts...let me just say first and foremost( for everyone else)in the world of auto body we’re held to certain parameters such as insurance non payment for necessary items,it’s a customer self-pay, the boss doesn’t get it,mostly monetary....but the way I like to do a lot of these repairs is to just straight up zone paint the side....and I’m sure you would agree...it gives a much nicer result...it sucks that painters who actually care like us can’t always dictate how we paint a car...but w a color like this you still managed to make an invisible transition and beautiful paint job.... everyone take note of this and follow through w what he’s saying...he is no imposter...and genuinely wants to help...nice job dude
Thanks so much and yes so many times I’ll take one for the team and just go down the whole side. Just makes things much easier. I know I can blend this color so I had confidence but you hit the nail on the head with this comment.
Every day stuff for you guys who do this all the time, but to those of us who don’t know how to paint this looks like pure magic!
Nice way to start off a Saturday, with a cup of coffee and Paint Society on the screen!
Enjoy your weekend Brian.
SUV came out nice!
Hell yes!
Man I really appreciate your videos, I am getting ready to paint my first vehicle in a few short weeks and I've been watching your videos for advice and expertise and I've gotta tell ya my confidence is growing every day as I watch you go in detail about what to do and what to avoid and how to correct mistakes. Thank you! Keep the videos coming!
Another great video! Clear base is a game changer for edges. 👌🏼
Thanks for taking the time to teach us Brian, very well explained. Look forward to more 👍
Hey beautiful job! Painter here for 8 years, in the trade for 10 from NJ. I've never used basecoat colorless but you really want to make me try. We have it in our system (Standox solvent) I've just never used it because I'm so used to just blending without it, yes silvers too but that blend edge can work it's way down the panel lol. My blends are pretty solid but for some reason it never clicked to me that it would be so much easier to blend into a wet bed. I'll give it a shot, seems really logical to put it on in between coats also to obtain a wet bed blending surface each time.
also and maybe more importantly I just wanted to say thanks for the videos. I've recently felt a bit unenthusiastic about painting and the grind but I've been watching youtube videos of painters and watching others do what I do, most of which the same, but something reignited in me. It helped me find the passion for this trade again. Watching videos in this trade is actually like working at a new shop for a moment. You pick up on things like you would if say you switched the shop at which you work at and its extremely valuable! Thanks for the passion re-ignition
how do you do it? do you spray clearcoat down first for a wet bed, then the base or do you just start with the base?
I just subbed yesterday and watched your blending videos. You have the best ones out there! Thanks for spending the time to read and answer questions. I’ll post another comment on my questions.
Welcome!
This dude answered every question, like explained 10 things that I never knew, but you have to really hear what he's saying. I had to rewatch 5 times to totally get what he's saying. The wet clear bed at the sides, to prevent halo, makes so much sense.
Have watched a few of your videos now Brian and I've got to say your tutorial breakdown is awesomely explained and shown in each and every video you post.
Hobby Painter myself in Germany I like how you explained things and compared to women. With black it is too easy to blend. Silver is way more complicated. Fear is always man´s biggest enemy... Thanks a lot :)
The most important thing I have learned so far is to be in charge, thanks Brian I have really done this since watching your tutorials thanks as always,yourchannel honestly is great
It’s so true! As soon as you let the car get the upper hand. You’re done!!
I also appreciate you sharing your knowledge, a lot! I'm restoring a 74 Alfa GTV and using a midnight green pearl. I am by no means an expert and had one section I wasn't happy with and needed to blend that uhO into the rest of the car. The details you included as well as what to use (the clear base, etc) saved my fanny and I now have my best paint yet. Many thanks!
Dude u are the best. I painted my whole truck in my backyard watching you and it's a head Turnner. Thank you bro .
Love your channel man , I’m not a painter but your info is very inspiring !!!
Just painted my dodge 3500 bright silver a few weeks ago, then had a tire come apart and right up the side of the door and got part of the fender as well, I was wondering how to address this, and this video pretty much answered all the questions I had on how to get the paint to blend and how to use a blending agent. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Brian you make it look so easy and after your help I’ve found it is easy the one most valuable lesson I’ve gotten is don’t rush it!
Thank you guys so mush you have Taught me many lessons and made me a much much better painter
There are so many poor tutorials out there with bad results passed off as a great job. Brian, this the one stop shop for the right info on how to do the job properly. #1 by far.
I am professional painter but watching your videos ,I love people that helping people , you are one of them , thanks for all that effort and time . Keep up the good work 👍👍👍
Thanks for staying humble. I love that about the veteran painters.
Awesome video, thank you for taking time and explaining every little step your doing, especially with the clear base that was used for blending because I had heard that method before but wasnt confident about doing it the way it was quickly explained. Now i feel like I can do it. You couldnt be more right about having confidence that you can do it, i was scared to do my first paint job on hood of my "new to me 2016 audi a6" the rest of it is in pristine condition. Thanks to your videos i was able to base and clear my hood. Didnt come out like your paint jobs but i am very happy for my 1st time and with some wet sanding and compound to get rid of orange peel its gonna look really good for a beginner. Your videos are the best on here.
I like how you explain things in every videos you've made. easy peassy...thanks bryan...keep up the good work.have a great day
I’m glad I found this Chanel. I started doing small repairs and this channel helped me a lot.not need to go to a class room when you found peoples like this.just great 👍
thanks brian i have never done any cars ive done mower this year im going to see a 02 blazer extreme and ive learned from you by watching your videos so when im done ill post it im just trying to mix paints.
Beautiful video man, tomorrow i have silver toyota coming in and I am empowerd by watching this video and has mademe confident to face metallic silver. Thank you so much!! People like you make life easy to live.

"This is what works for me. If there's a way that you do it, leave a comment below so I can learn from you". Wow, what a humble guy! I love your channel and have learned a lot. Thank you:)
Thank you!!!
Great video Brian. Great explanation on the clear base. You do a great job! Love watching your videos. Keep them coming. Again thanks for taking the time to teach us.
Welcome Dave!
Awesome job great explaining on the coverage of it all ...Thank you .
Thanks for all these advices!! Especially on metallic Colours. I’ve been improving on my paint jobs . Thanks once again. 🤓👍
Good breakdown of the blending process. Just getting into painting and trying to grasp all the info i can, Thanks!
Thanks so much for trying to simplify things and for transferring knowledge with ease. I'm looking forward to the new video
this one definitely turned out better than the lexus you blended recently great job
Awesome video.. love the anti-static gun part lol. Ur blends are on point! Even for a painter with over 20yrs experience I still enjoy ur videos. Thanks for sharing
Juan always a pleasure when you comment on my videos. Thank you!
Thanks for the tutorial. Using your blending technique from another video I got an amazing result.
But instead of using base coat blender I used the normal clear coat and a slow reducer while spraying in a garage with 42 degree Celsius temperature outside.
Many thanks for sharing the knowledge.
Oh wow. Glad it worked out !
Greetings from Sweden to a very good silver blending job 👍
Great job Bryan, I can tell you that I learned something new every time watching your channel.💪
I was like you once ,this was happening to me. at the end of my work day my eyes felt like they had dirt in them even with safety glasses. it took a long time to get use to my full face respirator helmet . like your work, good videos
I gotta find a better option for myself. You’re right.
You are a beast sir, that blend is awesome. I have a blend coming up in a few days chevy blue granite metallic I'm gonna try this method love the way you spray. Thanks for the tips.
Great video as always. Learning tons from you. Thanks Brian!
Hello Brian this might be a duplicate comment, but if it is, you deserve it twice anyways. Obviously your work is fantastic, but you are an absolutely wonderful teacher. I mean that’s why I said, everything I have done my entire life including build my business from the ground up and feed a family of six with it, I have done self taught. The hardest of all those things is change. Your videos have taken me from $3500 car work to work acceptable on a $20,000 car. Thank you so much
Nice Job!! love the way you do the blend.
Hi Brian after looking at this video Im more confident in the booth working with the blender product. Thanks your videos are awesome!
I am going to paint my silver cts after a t bone repair and i know i never could have even tried to do this without your help. Thanks for these video's
Yo PS, I know its a old video but you explain everything so well. Been following all your videos and was able to get the knowledge to knock out a silver paint job. Your videos and teaching given the confidence to do an RV next. Thank you for the knowledge transfer. Have a pleasant day. Cheers.
Love this guy's attitude.
Such a great teacher at the top of your game. Watching from Cornwall uk 👍

Really awesome video as always buddy! Keep killing it!

You are doing a very cool job worth watching and applying
You make the best paint videos man. Glad I found your channel
4:37 is exactly what happen to me when I painted a bumper cover with a metallic! The metallic flakes were sitting in the some of the 600grit sand scratches on the bumper. Thank you for the tip to use a 800 grit before painting 🙌🏽🤙🏽
Very good demonstration
you do an awesome job. Thanks for all the tips.
I want to thank you that clear base is what I was always missing the wording was what I couldn't understand with other videos this video really summed up what I was doing wrong thank you again
Your a good teacher. Appreciate your time making these vids. Topman.
Very much helped out & thank you for explaining the clear base for me better, tried to understand but now I do, thank you so much again & keep up the awesome work brother! Amazing job with the videos🙌🏼
Kurtis I’m glad the video helped you!
Excellent explanation of blending process 👍
Thank you for the nice video.
Lots of good tips and info,
Keep up the good work.
Hi Brian , thanks for all the great videos !! Have learned a lot from you. I’m a DIYer and working to fix some body damage to a silver metallic car, so this one hit home. Man … blending that paint without the proper equipment is tough, even if the paint is a decent match spray cans just can’t spray it very smoothly. 2nd attempt will be with a spray gun. I won’t be able to buy that sun gun though (very expensive), and I can see how that would be super useful . I couldn’t tell how bad the paint transition was until I was out in the sun !
Great job!
Brian love your content on blending silver I've always dreaded silver or any light Metallic to do a blend . I have one coming in that is silver and it's a blend .
Hope you use this video to help!
I amazingly admire and respect your courageous, determined, humble, fun excellent work, and am sure your coworkers do the same as well, thank you sir🎩✌❤
Thanks Sam!

BRIAN THE GREAT 🤗🤗
Another blending wonderful job great job as always. God bless you God bless your family. have a wonderful weekend 🤗🤗🤗🤗👍👍
Thanks so much!
Great tips thanks brian
Can I suggest that during your edit you state what is in the gun? You did this in the prior video, it really helps especially since you cut in with the next shot with something else in the gun. Like at 12:00 you are doing clear base, but then at 12:11 you go to base coat. If someone didn’t understand the process you could only kinda tell by looking at the cup. I could see someone thinking you’re laying down clear base in that area. This is all new technique for most of us.
Absolutely will do on the next video.
@@PaintSociety I was gonna mention this too lol.
I had to rewind the video a couple times in some parts cause it threw me off , so then I had to look at your cups and then it when it made sense as I saw the clear base and then a darker cup with basecoat.
Brian, I think some people don't understand about clear base blender is that not all basecoat systems have the clear blender. So in that case, I heard guys using basecoat binder which also sprays clear to achieve the same effect. Great job as always.
Works the same way I hear. Even if it the blender doesn’t come in through system they can still get away with using one from another system. Thanks for for commenting on the video with great advice!
Great video.
this is your most informative video
Awesome job brother 👍👍👍
Great content, Brian 😊 My advice for viewers is to check this pressure everytime, especially when painting silver. Keep it up 😉
I agree !
nice job thank you for posting
negative is a new word for loser,,,i always try to be positive,,,but im positive when i make a mistake, no one can beat it,im positive of it,,,,but putting all of that behind me ,the internet is a learning network for me,,,ive been playing around cars most of my life, i am self train, but since i have been watching your videos ,damm my paint jobs are starting to exstight me,,,i have learned a few things from you ,and i havent watched all your videos yet,,and im still learning from ya,,,yes keep the videos comeing,,,,,short cuts no, doing it the right way is always the way, and the right way im getting it from you,thank you,,,,,thank you for shareing your wisedom. i believe even alittle bet of knowledge can go along way....i know because your helping me alot
So glad that I can help you with your painting! Keep watching and learning and stay positive. It only gets easier!
My Accord is going into the insurance bodyshop next week.. Its Albaster silver.. With a carpark dent and scuff to my wing. I just hope to God they do a good a job as you do and I get it back all matching and not mismatched.. I love the car and if it comes back poorly done I will be gutted to say the least.. My car had hardly a mark on it before some old lady bumped it with her 2020 BMW convertible.. At least she gave me her details for the insurance.. Great work by the way. 😎👍👏
Good luck!
That's my 1st time I've subscribed anyone... chapeau bas ! ;) ... looking forward to learning from you more & more ;) Greg
Welcome!
I gotta say you brian is bad azz. Great work great videos!!!
That was some good explanation!
Very well explained.
The car looks fantastic. I'm trying correct a clear coat problem on the hood of my car. I think I may have to use 3000 wet and hopefully that will hide the border of the old and new. Thanks again. Cheers, Chris.
Great stuff, you’re truly are a gifted teacher!
