I'm in bodywork 45 years and I always maintain that no matter how good you think you are , you never stop learning.
Great video and informative approach.
Thanks for sharing.
Couldn’t agree more. Thank you🙌🏻
Absolutely!
You are so right, been in it for 35 years. It changes yearly.
Being self taught and back in the day so to speak, late 70's - 90 I was at the Pebble Beach quality of work. I would have really liked to have some instruction on the craft. You did an excellent job on the instruction and explanation with the end goal in mind. Even tho I became a highly skilled craftsman in the auto body repair and restoration field I made most of the mistakes you talked about. Different times back then, no 2K primers in the 70"s at least to my knowledge but then I grew up in a small town where a guy wouldn't have heard about it. This is the first time I came across one of your vids and will return for sure. I'm 62 now and body is shot to hell, one thing I can't stress enough to the young guys is that you're not superman. Keep kneeling on that concrete without pads and see how you feel in 30 yrs. Be safety minded, I've seen a lot of shit over the years and things you think could never happen can. Deep down I would still like to paint just one more, basecoat was just coming in as I was going out. HVLP tech was just coming in also, with most shops being scared of them. I was a rep for Mattson HVLP spray guns and often worked with Roy Mattson who was a true pioneer in the development of the HVLP gun. For me at the end I was stuck in the middle of it all but my Binks no. 7 and Centari with a clear was like glass. Man, I still love the smell of that Centari , sorry so long, now for that subscribe button, thank you for your efforts. Rock On !!
Thank you very much. Sounds like some awesome stories.
I am not far behind you. Third generation in the trade and now am sensitized to the paints and isocyanates. Most aches and pains are treated with advil. Nothing worse and not being able to breathe. My reactions follow me home lasting for a couple hours. Nasal sprays and inhalers just aren’t cutting it now I need to move on. Not even a mask can prevent the exposure. I absorb the chemicals through my skin. Just life I suppose.
@@billbeckett1021 There are things to help. I have COPD. Their Holistic methods available. You tube natural ways to detox lungs, kidneys liver and subscribe to the ones you feel are helpful. Then keep going back and look for a continuity between them. I am 68.5. I now weigh the same 165-70 as I did when on swim team in high school. Blood pressure has leveled out stomach problems diminished and improving over this last year. Just with over the counter. Vitamins and personal behavioral changes i.e., everything in moderation. Not pushing anything just making good use of my You Tube during the B>S> IN the LAND.
@@billbeckett1021 sorry to hear about that Bill, I hope your condition improves. The trueth of the 2K spraying is that you need an exterior air supply...the mask cannot filter out all the isocyanates and most 3M masks on ebay are not even 3M they are counterfeit so how do we know if they are really working. I pointed it out to 3M in the UK and they agreed they were not 3M products. Wear covering from head to toe and even wear gloves. Use an Oil-less compressor for an air feed going to a good filtration system and use blue hose which is medical quality from the filter to the mask and has no silicone or rubber in it. You should also have two oil free compressors in case one fails and both feeding into the same Y junction.
Please listen to this man. Isocynates must be respected. Supplied air is the ONLY way anyone should spray iso. Just a respirator mask is NOT enough!
This guy makes things really easy to understand. A natural teacher.
Thank you very much
I highly recommend watching Sylvester customs videos he explains everything in detail and dosent half step or take shortcuts
Thank you so much mike
You took the words right out of my mouth
I learned more from this video than I have in 6 months of working in a body shop
Very glad to hear!! Thanks for watching!
I started as a painters helper when I was 15 I am 60 now and retired I did it all custom cars accident work restorations and I worked for some of the best people out there
The most comprehensive bodywork tutorial I've seen. Thank you!
Thank you Chris, appreciate it.
Well I've been doing this off and on for 40 plus years and this is the best explanation I've ever seen.
Great to share your knowledge with us.😊
Thank you for watching and the great comment. Hope you stay with us for future content.
thank you !!! you made my day sir !!!
Really enjoy the walk through! I’ve been body working for years and always love learning new ways! Thank you ,it shows your a good teacher. Have a good one
Thank you!!
Hands down, this is the best TH-cam video ever! I've watched all of them on this curriculum. All the information is correct, well spoken, and is spot on. This guy is a great instructor. I outta know, I've got over 45 years in the trade!:)👍👍
Amazing compliment from someone with 45 years in. Thank you for checking us out. Hope you come back and watch some of our new videos.
Wow! I felt like I had a pretty good understanding of the basics of bodywork, but I learn a TON from your video that will make me better and make doing it much easier!
Very glad to hear 🙌🏻
Easily one of the best body work videos out there. Disciplined and super clean work. Outstanding. Gary
Thank you Gary.
I haven't really done bodywork in several years but you never quit learning this stuff and it is hard as hell to get a car super straight. You are showing the way to do it some of which I have never seen but it takes years of experience to get really good at it. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!
Thank you for the incredibly detailed and common sense lesson. The way you present it makes it very easy to understand. It has inspired me to get cracking on my next project!
That’s awesome, stay tuned more videos coming to help you on that project.
I have always been a bit rough with body work. I’m not a panel beater but after watching this I can see where I can improve a lot. Thanks this is a great video.
You’re welcome, more videos on there way.
I’ve done collision repair for 25yrs. This fella is EXACLY right!
I've gotten pretty good at bodywork throughout the years. Now after watching this video there is no doubt I will be faster and more accurate. Thanks for the tips
You got it, thanks for watching!!
Another video that's answers all my questions from the past 5 years in one video. I just couldn't find this level of quality info from other youtubers or on forums, even when trying to piece it together. You're providing priceless info here. I hope you continue to do so. Would love to see a series on how you spray paint for show-car finishes too i.e gun settings/technique tips. Thanks again for making me excited about my hobby again because i finally found answeRS!
Thank you!! We will be continuing these in depth tutorials on every step as each project progresses.
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS really glad to hear that! By the way, do you know of any alternatives to VP2050? I can’t get it here in the U.K. it seems.
Agreed 🏴
Wow, wow!!! This the most intuitive bodywork video I’ve seen on TH-cam. Thank you 🙏🏿. Your tone and body language is perfect for my absorption. You’re a natural teacher.
Thank you for the compliment. Hope you come back and watch more as we release them.
In a couple of weeks I will be starting a restomod on a 1950 Chevrolet panel delivery truck. I have enough experience to be dangerous. I have been watching a lot of TH-cam videos and yours is the first to explain blocking and step by step through paint. Thanks for the info and help. Looking forward to more videos.
Thank you very much. Glad they are helping you. We will have one drop every Friday 👍🏻
I've been doing body work for 40 years this man knows what he's talking about
Thank you!!
Every minute of this video was so helpful! I didn't think I needed a 50 minute how to haha. I wish I had seen this before starting on my project
Right on glad you enjoyed it
Probably the best demonstration video I've ever seen. You're a very good teacher. I've been doing this for a long time and you taught me some good stuff.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow, this is the best video on body filler I have ever seen. I've read countless books magazines watch videos and I still learned something almost every minute or two from this video. Do yourself a favor and watch this whole thing carefully.
Glad it was helpful!
Stop watching the short videos, take the time and watch this. This has been the single best filler video i I have seen. I watched it the night before and the next day I restarted 3 days of work and finished in 3 hours. I now have new hope for my daunting projects. Don't think you can master it the first time, it takes time and practice but this will save you the strain on your elbows and wrist in the long run.
So glad to hear!!
You my friend have the best body work video on TH-cam hands down! You’re a true pro! Dude wow... you’re on Point! Ty for taking the time and sharing to teach us. Hats off to you! Big THANK YOU! The word needs more ppl like you! Great delivery! Great EVERYTHING THANK YOU!!
Thank you very much for the kind words! 🙌🏻
Can't thank you enough for your timely tips. I'm an old retired fart trying my hand at bodywork and your videos are just what I needed. With each video I can see where I was doing it wrong. I don't mind doing things 3 or 4 times if I'm learning and not repeating mistakes. Chuck @ Temecula Valley Paint is a gem. Thx again. KW
That’s awesome glad they help you. Chuck is the best!!
I just found your channel and im hooked. Im currently in school taking autobody collision and refinishing. Never knew this was my passion til I caught the bug. Thank you for your knowledge and passion to teach us
Awesome!! Thank you for watching!
Very refreshing to finally find an autobody-related video on YT that isn't full of hack "tips". Good stuff.
Thank you
Thank you so much for a fantastic tutorial. This is exactly what I need to learn. I am now In fourth year of my trade work. My filler work is so frustrating that no matter how hard I work on it I still see either ripples or imperfections. But I can honestly say that you corrected me at lot of places. I am sure when I put your tutorials into practice i am going to improve my filler work. I will keep you posted. Thanks again.
Very glad you enjoyed them 👍🏻
A light touch and good guide coat with epoxy primer i can build it up to where I can massage a panel straight quite qwickly
As others have said, great video and you are spot on! I'm not a pro as you are, just an extreme hobbiest I suppose and I picked up a lot of good hints. Never been a fan of the cheese grater, you showed me how it should be done! And agree with you on the powder guide coat, great stuff, doesn't clog your paper. Thanks for your time, great job.
I'm no expert but will be prepping and spraying my car this summer, so right now I'm watching loads of TH-cam videos so I can learn as much as I can before I start. This one popped up as a recommendation, and of all the videos I've seen so far (and there have been lots!), this is by far the best explanation of the way to avoid the filler edge expanding further and further by making over-corrections, and to how avoid the over-filing/over-sanding cycle. Great work, I've subscribed and will be checking out the rest of your videos.
Thank you very much for subscribing we will be putting out some more videos here very soon on the next steps as well as some of the metal work stages and a lot more how to use to help the guys like yourself glad you enjoyed it
Been doing this for over 40 years now and I can tell you that he’s doing it the right and best way... Many thanks...👍
Thank you very much!
This is a very well detailed explanation. He is very good at teaching others. Some are very good at doing the work but not good at showing or teaching others. Thanks for taking time we need people to get involved in this trade. Great Job!!!
Thank you so much
very good. I have been doing bodywork for almost 50 years. you did an awesome job explaining it
Thank you very much appreciate it
Hey I found this video in my frustration in waiting another few years on my "Someday I'm gonna learn..." project. I am an absolute beginner, and this video is just what I need to kickstart my process. 2nd owner 1959 Karmann Ghia Cabriolet, my Dad passed and now I'm 64 and l need to get this done. You are inspirational in your manner and I will keep coming back to your channel. Thanks and stay strong.
Thank you very much for the kind words we will be teaching so much more soon. Thank you for watching 🙌🏻
One of the best tutorial videos I've seen on bodywork 👍
That was the best hour I have ever spent watching a video! You are an incredible teacher and I thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you!!
Just came across your channel and have to say I’m so glad I did, I’m working on an old Holden ute here in Australia and your videos will definitely help me along the way, by far the most informative and easy to follow and understand video I’ve watched so far, well done mate can’t wait to see more, definitely subscribed and 👍👍
Thank you very much. More to come soon.
Subscribe guys.. this man will turn you into a pro.. he's giving you ALL the tips and none of the bullshit.. listen to everything, some of this stuff can take you years and heartache to figure out.. can't wait for the next one
I’m a first time restorer of an MGB in the UK, and I’m 75 years old!! So I’ve been researching like hell on the latest methods. I settled on epoxy primer a while ago and filling afterwards so I got that bit right!
Awesome!!
hands down 1 of the better videos I've seen, lots of knowledge and straight to the point👍👍👍
Thank you very much!!!
Hey Trevor, just a big shout out to you for the first class video. Appreciate you taking the time to show us your amazing skills and show us how it's done right! Keep them coming Bro!
Thank you! It’s travis 👍🏻
Amazing video!!!! Your an amazing and patient teacher. Not like all those other videos that skips steps just to make a video and get likes. I learned more in this hour then i did for a year on the job lol. Wish I had an amazing teacher like you to learn from on the floor. Great job. Looking forward to seeing ALL your vids!!!!!
Thank you very much for the kind words
Love your attention to detail which is the difference between “good” and “great”. Thank you.
Appreciate it, Thanks for watching!
Wow finally an awesome how to channel on body work! Love how you explain each step. Very interested in more
Thank you very much. There will be way more tutorials coming soon 👊🏻👍🏻
Not a fan of bad Chad method ???ha,ha,ha
@@futureliner 🤣🤣🤣 no he seems like a hack lol
Great vid! Answered some more questions we had. Loved that ending! 🤘🏼
🤣🤣🤣🤣 damn jack!!!
100% best on TH-cam and 100% the exact rute I'm taking. Thanks for your knowledge man
Thank you for the compliment greatly appreciated we are still learning with every car
Again, The best video on using filler I've ever seen. Thanks!!!
Thank you very much
A good video , Thank you for all the pointers . I love doing body and paint work . I feel it is the most satisfying form of art that I have found . I really like the pencil mark tip . I can see how this would be a big help in letting you know that you've gone far enough .
You will be surprised how much work that pencil will save you. Come back and let us know how it works for you.
Great video and thank you for taking your time to explain stuff I learned the hard way with using sharpie markers I did a candy blue paint job and once it was out in the sun for awhile I could see black circles in the candy blue paint it was a bad bad day lol I only use pencil from now own
Good thing you weren’t drawing graphic pictures with sharpie 🤣
I didn’t get bored and fast forward any part. It was very critically detailed. I’m anxious for my next project when we get out of the deep freeze.
Absolutely the best video I've ever watched on the correct way to do body work
Thanks for watching!
Great info. Everyone always mixes way more than they need. What a waste of money. Or they try to use what they mix and then they spend way more time to remove all the extra! But so far so good on the training. Many good points especially for beginners. Always cover can to keep the filler from drying out even faster. As a body man who use to do 8 hours per day of body work, you don’t want to let this filler still be on your car overnight. That’s a nightmare! Also temp changes change everything about the process.
It takes time to master the art. So don’t get frustrated- just keep trying to do a better job the next time. And think about what you are doing so you can self correct. The key to working filler is to start working it while it’s just setting up. It’s a huge difference compared to allowing it to harden for a half hour or more. If you take lunch and come back…it’s already too late! You can work it but it’s going to be a much tougher job to do. With any skill be prepared to research, learn and watch others doing the same skill set. What works for you may be a bit different from what you see others doing. But if you follow this guys tips you are better off. Most people do not like doing bodywork because it’s labor -intensive…or so they think. but it’s really not bad if you’re doing it correctly.
Damn. I'm a complete beginner and out of about 100 bodywork videos, this one is by far the most informative one! I appreciate y your information and guidance
Thank you very much
Fantastic straight forward explanation. I love my Linear Blocks.
I been keeping a look out for tips and tricks the last 3 years as I've been trying to learn body work as a hobby and this is the best video I've seen so far (weighing body filler & hardner, pencil outline, etc.) I don't know of anybody sharing these type of real world applications. A++
Thank you very much. Next video will be up hopefully this week thx for watching
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS Subsribed...I'm ready. :-)
Flat areas have always been difficult for me, I always think they a flush and fine only to find they are low by a few thousandths, enough to really jump out after being painted. Enjoyed and hopefully learned from the video. However I am only a DIY guy that likes to work in my own cars.
We get the message, but have you actually measured the "few" thousandths to know it was a just few. And how many are a few?
$40k-$80k for body and paint is how it should be with the thousands in materials and hundreds if not thousands of man hours invested. I did restoration for 10 years before I went to general collision work because nobody wants to pay, when it’s all said and done it feels like your making $10hr. People go to a couple car shows and see some nice classic cars and remember when they were in high school and had their chevelle or something. They want another one and don’t realize that $100k is nothing for a quality classic. So they go buy some bucket out of a field that has been looked over and passed by for the last 40 years because of it condition, and think that they can get a full restoration for $20k. They don’t have a clue what stuff costs. They don’t realize that the body and paint is 40k, that custom chassis with tubular arms, coil overs, rack N pinion, boxed and gusseted, and 4 linked is 10k. That 9 inch rear is 5k, their big brakes on all 4 3k, that 600hp LS and built trans $15k, 5k for wheels and tires, 10k in interior. It all adds up and they have no idea the hours involved and what things actually cost. To top it off they think they can drop off a wrecked rusted turd and get it back in a couple of weeks fully restored and ready for their first car show.
@John Doe
Exactly!
But then, after polishing the turd, they STILL don't have what they had back in the day...
There's just "something" about the experience of driving a car that's as close to "factory stock" as it can be.
My folks had a restoration business back through the 80s and 90s... I grew up working for Dad.
He's still kicking, but retired down in Daytona Beach now. He still does car maintenance and motorcycle projects for friends till this day.
I guess I'm getting old, too... The prices mom n dad charged back then, are a DAMN SIGHT different than they are today!
But one thing has never changed... Someone could dump X amount into a car, thinking they were gonna double or triple it when they eventually sell it.... Which we all know USUALLY never happens, even today.
Cheers!
Hate to say it but they also think Biden didn't steal the election. People aren't to smart.
With all that you included I wouldn’t touch that for less than 150,000
You forgot the Taxes 😞
@@johnfairchild3421 150k is right on. The shops that are actually making money and doing good are charging these numbers.
The absolute best video that I have ever seen pertaining to this particular subject! Thank you, Sir!
Thank you very much!
Half way through this and already learned so many great tips its by far the best explanation video ive seen. Instead of just doing it, he explains what hes doing it and why you should do it that way. Got a sub and a like from me
Thank you for watching and subscribing. We have more videos in the works. Hope you keep watching.
Great video I’m currently working on a 1967 gto its my first attempt at bodywork so far its going good I’ve made a few mistakes along the way but have been able to correct them i did take the body down to bare metal and then sprayed epoxy primer then I did the filler work over it. And blocked with 40 grit and 80 grit with the linear blocks there awesome!! the thing i wish now I didn’t do was the poly primer its s lot work to sand and I’m not sure i like the product. i’m going to block it down with 80 grit with the linear blocks and spray the whole car with tamco 5310 DTM do you think this would be a better substrate to work from then using the evercoat poly and a urethane primer ( the Eastwood) method well anyway thanks for your time take care
I personally don’t have any experience with tamco so I’m not sure. We use all ppg products. I’m personally not a fan of polyester we use vp2050 it’s a one size fits all epoxy/high build primer.
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS thanks for the reply in your opinion theres no real harm leaving the poly primer that I already sprayed and go ahead and prep it for a DTM primer like you mentioned and continue blocking the body till ready to seal and paint. Thank you for your time
@@jamespowers8142 Yeah most use polyester primer you should be fine doing that
GREAT CHANNEL. JUST CAME ACROSS IT....AND BOY HAVE I BEEN MAKING SOME MISTAKES. YOU GOT ME FOR GOOD.....
KEEP IT UP.
Wow. I cannot stress the detail you are providing. I have done body work on a lot of cars, but you are sending me to next detail level and teaching me some techniques that I have not seen. This will help me on the 68 Corvette I am restoring. Great vids, keep em coming.
Thank you!! Glad they are helping ya out👍🏻
this video exemplifies how a craft is turned into an ART -
Your taking chances with pencil lead as well. Using it in body work, it's a graphite lubricant powder that's being scratched off the pencil lead on to the surface your drawing on. It has no chemical fusion bond with paint, and lack of adhesion if you don't sand it all the way off. Your creating issues with top coats not adhering to the physical pencil line, as well it's creating a barrier to what's below the line...
@@gary24752 your working on it with your eyeballs, your identifying it with your eyeballs, then why not fill it with your eye balls, why does it have to be identified with any physical mark, your working it start to finish anyway why bring contamination into the mix period. Anything other than paint and fillers, should not hit the surface period by rights. Graphite, markers, dust, grease pencils, hand oils their all contaminates even paints are contaminantes if you spray on top to heavy, and then you have separtion and bleed to a certain point. Flashing is where all this is controlled and skills of an individual laying paint ! They chemically bond through fusion that's the reason for using two part compounds to control bleed through from curing processes that require a mechanical bound vs chemical solvent fusion bonds. Your good I just had a problem with graphite being used. I'm sure you guys turn out great results. Graphite is real detrimental to extreme hot areas of jet engines it causes cracks to develope right along a line that's drawn everytime. It embeds into pores in metal through heat expansion and cold contraction cycles until the metal separates creating cracks. But unrelated to what your doing but it does concentrate heat.
Per the manufacturer of the filler do not use a graphite pencil as it will contaminate the surface. They said to use a sharpy.
I will sometimes use simply a piece of tape where a hidden low is in my mud.....very easy just to remove real quick and mud.
Great job teaching the concepts!! Many TRY and teach, MANY simply don't know how!! Again, thank you!
I appreciate the kind words
I've watched 100s of bodywork videos at this point, and I found this to be one of the best in terms of clear and concise information. I really enjoyed watching. Thank you for posting, you've got a new subscriber 😁
Wow, thank you!
great video, no stupid music, no bs...just straight to the point !
I have learned more watching your videos than any others. Very detailed. Love it!
Thank you very much!
Very nicely done. I am very grateful that you are able to set time aside for us. It certainly helps me to understand the process and how important accuracy is.
That’s awesome we appreciate the comment. Stoked to help
No matter how many times I REwatch your videos, I learn something new each time. Thx for sharing 💪👊
Love it!!! That’s the goal learn something then go try it realize there’s more to it go through the struggle and rewatch it …… over and over till you perfect it
Thanx for such an informative video. I worked as a auto painter back in the late 70s ( lacquer paint days) and left the industry to go into aviation. Now that I am retired, I have had the time to work on my hot rods. Your video helped me get up to speed on the modern products and how they are used. I also picked up some techniques that I had not seen before.
Right on! That’s awesome
Love the channel guy's as a bodyshop owner Love what you y'all do.
A TRUE Master.. Beautifully detailed in explanation and valued outcome.. Your presentation covered the most important.."the WHY". Hugely appreciated.. Thank you

Very glad to hear!! Thank you we’re all still learning 🙌🏻
I like the pencil idea, so I tried it and it works thank you. I've never tried to go this far with body work so I'm giving it my best shot. Thank you
Awesome very glad to hear!!

Fantastic video! Everything explained and demonstrated in great detail. Thanks for doing this!!!
Thank you!
I wish I had known the pencil method 20 years ago..you sir are The Man!
From the body filler manufacture. Do not use a pencil. Use a sharpy to prevent contaminating the surface as you would with a pencil.
OMG that was amazing. I have never seen such meticulous body work! I am just a hack that does minimal work on non show cars at home garage, but this was very enlightening on how to achieve better surfaces. Thanks
Glad you liked it! Thank you
Another thank you for taking the time to do these videos. I find myself going back and re-watching your videos. I never was a fast learner, but at 85 I've gotten even worse about remembering.
Thanks for watching!

Watching for the second time, great tips!!! Thank you.
