I used to spray Rhino Linings, as cheap insurance against sweat contamination, I bought a cheap pack of tube socks to put on my arms while I sprayed liners. Sure made a difference in the quality of my liners, and I also used this method for painting cars, saves a lot of time by keeping sweat from dripping onto the paint surface.
That's a great tip! For me, I've had trouble in the past with tennis wrist bands letting go of lint into my paint.... socks may be different, and maybe if they were washed a couple times it may get rid of anything that is loose.... for me, taping wipe-towels ( bodyshop lint free towels) on my wrists solves that, but I've never tried tube socks. Thanks for the note!!! Be well!!
Thanks for sharing and teaching us Kevin. It is much appreciated! My ‘66 Mustang will be much nicer to drive once I do my best work using your advice. It can’t get much worse than it is right now!
Awesome tips! Kevin and others if you want a treat I saw a vid today of a young guy painting his mustang OUTSIDE (with Eastwood Single Stage) and I feel he did it proud especially for his first paintjob. His channel is very small it's Nevo's Resto's. Check 'er out. I'll bet he loves driving it cause he did it himself.
Have you ever painted an 80's Corvette? Nothing sticks to the surface on those things. I scuffed the heck out of one with limited success (see video). Most fillers won't stick. Even the adhesive on Dynomat won't stick. I should have tried an adhesion promoter, but hindsight is 20/20. What do you recommend? How about a video on painting this material? It isn't fiberglass or plastic it is some mutant of the two. Even the factory paint bubbled. HELP!
As a complete newbie that has been over informed and overwhelmed with information, I would love to see someone go over the basics. When should I use epoxy primer as apposed to self etching? Does that change the next step in the process? What is the next step in the process? When does filler need to be applied? Is there a painting for dummies because I am referring to the absolute basics?
Bryan, go to my FB group PAINTUCATION U and apply for membership. I totally understand your overwhelm, that's why I have this group and that's why I've been training people for 23 years. The truth is, there's more than one correct way to do some of these things, and it depends on your individual situation... ( equipment, experience, work area, etc) I'd love for you to enroll in one of my Paintucation training courses, but that's your decision. I have been walking newbies through the process with great success for many years and I'd love to help!. Kevin.
Mr Tetz i fully enjoy all of your videos. I first watched you w Eastwood. I have a quick question i am hoping you can assists with. My question relates to " flow coating". Im doing a three stage paint job; base; pearl and clear. I understand the procedure to flow coat. What my question is, should i also flow coat the pearl layer? Thank you; Ray H
Ray, I would not float coat the Pearl layer, when you send your first session it's possible that you can disturb the pattern and the distribution of the flakes and micah's, causing a splotchy look. I would let that one lie, then go straight to your clear coats. And do your flow coating on the top layer.
@@paintucation great thank you for letting me know. Im looking forward to more of your videos from you although I don't do Facebook so I will have to keep checking TH-cam.. have a great weekend

I'll have to check that out! We gotta keep new blood coming into this trade! I hope he was practicing good safety... that's really important!
My favorite paint guy!
You sir, deserve wayyyy more subscribers. Great content for the shade tree hot rodder to the professional guys.
I’d be happy with a mediocre paint job at home. Thanks for the content.
