I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THE MUSIC IN THIS VIDEO
Kendrick Lamar - LOVE. ft. Zacari
• Kendrick Lamar - LOVE....
Aimless - Let Me Tell You About Her
• let me tell you about her
Idk why people are throwing shade on this video, I think y’all did an amazing job they turned out real neat.
Thank you very much!
Video is fine. The music is terrible and annoying.
@@watto1964 Music IS not the point of the video, and just because someone has different music taste then you doesn’t make a video, that they took time to make, “fine”. People need to start waking up on the right side of bed. 😂
There's literally 1 negative comment lmao its youtube, let people have their opinions
@@archer6726 lmao it’s a video about painting aluminum wheels not the music.
Awesome thanks...going to try this on my Tundra
Finished product looks really clean! Cant wait to give it a shot on the civ and hopefully choose a color that doesnt make her look like a shitbox 😅
😂
May I ask what material and paint did you use, how much was the total cost, I think you did an excellent job
Yup I am about ready to paint the 96 Grand Cherokee Laredo oxidized wheels myself, heck I painted a 77 BMW pax door and it matched original paint
Looks really good I'm gonna do my fake bbs rs wheels soon lol thanks for the vid👍
Nice job
How long do you have to wait to paint the rims after you put the primer on? Nice video btw, hope you reply.. its been 3 years xD
Looks awesome! How did it hold with time?
No mention of the type of paint and primer used?
Just wondering if plasti-dip or painting is better. I have brand new aluminum rims and want to go black.
Plasti dip doesn’t last at all and I personally hate the look
@@EastCoastGarage saving me from loads of useless work 😂
Thanks helped a lot
Hey! I painted the rims with primer silver color turned out amazing when i painted with gloss black the color didnt stick it turned out weird and it looked matt black and when i would touch it with finger the coulor would rub off anyone know why it was after 2 day the color rubbed off with finger
Since the video was aired, April 2019, how is the paint holding up?
Idk why you have to spray back. Can you spray front while on the car? No taking wheels off?
need to take it off so you don't spray the brakes
song selection dope
Use aluminum brightener
How many can of primer and paint did you use for the set of wheels?
How many cans of clear. Primer and base coat did you use
Noah Buchan I used about 2-3 cans of primer 3-4 cans of paint and 1-2 cans of clear coat. Completely depends on your wheel size and how much surface area you will be covering.
How long did it hold up cause I was gonna think about doing that
You didn’t take the wheel weight off. When you balance the wheel again there will be a unpainted spot
RSH21 you are correct however we only painted the back of the wheels so that at a glance the back matched. Removing these weights after painting doesn’t leave enough unpainted area to really worry. We just got new tires not too long ago and didn’t even notice where the old weights were
@@EastCoastGarage just because you didn't notice doesn't mean its not there if your going to paint a rim why would you not paint the whole thing if you were going to cut corners you should have left out the sticky notes on the tires the paint will stick to that rubber for like 45 seconds
@@nickvalencia4160 what is the point in throwing shade for how he painted his own wheels? if people are that concerned about making sure their weights are painted, they'll probably do it. no reason to put buddy on blast because he didn't do it
@@micku9909 the point is there is a right way and a wrong way of doing it and if you are going to make an instructional video you should do it the right way
@@nickvalencia4160 understood
Nice
What brand of primer & paint did you use, how many of ea for ea rim?
What sand paper number did you use?
He mentioned 400 grid
Looks good but personally the song just ruined it, especially when you tried to talk over it. No music when you're giving instructions, better yet no music at all!
yo what clear coat did you use?
But what about a Midwest winter?? Will it peel?? Or flake off?
I am not too familiar with a mid west winter but I have only expereinced chipping when I get new tires put on. Besdies that it holds really well to the wheel, just ensure proper sanding
Can I get the brand of products you used??
Great fuckin video my boy
thank you so much!
Nice.. but I never people paint the back of the rim.. is there a reason?
Just so it didn’t look like a low quality job upon closer look
Wats the name of that tool you used to tighten up the tire? What size and does it fit a 2011 335i coupe?
It's a torque wrench. It's adjustable and it will click (some beep) when the nuts are tightened to spec. It's just a fancy ratchet and yes, it will fit your car because, like any other ratchet, you can put any socket on it provided the drive size is the same. (3/8", 1/2"drive) unless you're not in the US. Idk what drive sizes there are in metric...( never thought about that one detail) but they have torque wrenches in Newton Meters As well as inch pounds and foot pounds.
(My wife watched me type that and asked what language it was...lol)
Content is really good but music sucks. Can not hear you well.
did you use the gloss black duplicolor spray paint?
Yes
Wait are you suppose to sand it because other videos i see people sanding the wheel
We sanded the wheel at the start
@@EastCoastGarage what grit of sand paper nice video btw
@@hypethevipe5724 thanks man I would recommend getting a kit starting anywhere from 80 and getting all the way to 800
How long you let the paint dry b4 washing
Boo Young I would recommend waiting atleast 2 days before washing and even then I wouldn’t scrub the wheels whatsoever
Thanks East Coast Garage nice video
What product name did you use thanks
Duplicoloe for the paint and then you can grab the wheel cleaner from our online store!!
What paint did you use?
I was wondering the same thingz what brand his products were..
Unless you have a closed garage good luck with clear coat because it will be a total disaster with dust unless you have a totally closed environment
What kinda.
stop the terrible music. otherwise decent video. lacks some info but overall gives someone with experience an idea of how to
Have to work with copyright free music. Sucks but
Your Music is cool, it's not offensive or nothing, It's your video, your choice of music. NowToNy Marty should go.
I like your music. It’s not distracting at all. Looks good I’m doing the same thing to my car ❤
What brand of paint is it?!
Duplicolor
@@EastCoastGarage for primer paint and clear?
@@DangItsXan yes
Would have been better without the crappy music.
Such stupid music
Um...thats not a "wheel well"... just....sayin.
Nice job
