I watch your videos for hours. My dad was a great painter like you. I was his prepper. And just as he was going to have me start painting he passed away. I watch your videos for the advice and tips. I prep 400 hr pay periods by myself. And now he's gone I don't wanna prep for no other painter. I wanna paint. He left me his tekna pro lite and his iwata supernova. Thank you for you great videos.
This is my opinion in relation to the time on your videos. When you show a full job it eliminates the assumption of the time it takes and the work process. So its great to get the reality of the job itself so that amateurs such as myself don't get frustrated thinking why is it so hard and long to complete a task that came off so easy after watching very short edited videos. I like to see when you correct mistakes because its impossible not to get any, and knowing the technique, when to use it, and what not to worry about is what determines real skill. So occasionally a long video on a specific topics is great so no stress. I have a friend that introduced me to your videos and he messes up to much because he doesn't fully understand the process and now he gave up. I am far better now so I can easily follow your work but before it was above my level since some approaches for beginners aren't included. thanks alot
Another big thank you from northern Ireland, your video's are magic , if you want a 57 year old apprentice I'm your man, always learning from you, cheers mate.
I can't thank you enough for this video. I recently got into a fender bender and had to reshape and repaint my rear bumper, including bumper end caps, and your clear coat video enabled me to get my clear coat looking like glass for the first time in my life. Every other time it always had orange peel and this time it's nearly flawless, and I even did it in my garage with the door open! I followed your 1/3 hardener, 10% acetone formula @ 2bar and it sprayed on perfectly with 2 coats, 4 minutes in between coats. Thank you thank you! Only issue now is my bumper looks better than the rest of my truck!
@@TheGunmanChannel ciao sono di Milano e sono un tuo fans ,sono verniciatore ,sto comprando una devilbiss GTI prolife per trasparente ( clear ) mi sai dire che ugelli usi ( esempio 1.2/1.3/1.4.....) dimmi il kit giusto ..grazie un saluto dell'Italia.
When you are trying to teach as you are doing, I don't think there is such a thing as a too long video. Love your vids, learning a lot, keep them coming !
Thanks for your video! I have done some paintjobs on my old beetle for several years. I stepped up a bit and now also did a fender, door, door paintjob on my black magic metallic Golf. I went well. I get several hints from your videos. That helped me a for do a descent job.
Gunman thanks for your videos you brought back my motivation to get back into this job and be positive and knock out good quality jobs for awile was getting tired of this trade but watching your videos brought back my inspiration to knock out quality jobs and take pride in the work keep up the awesome jobs !!
Well done, your a credit to us Painters, you made a nice job of that car. One of my last jobs before I left the trade was to repaint a brand new Astin Martin, which when It was in the showroom looked like the colour was uneven, Massive job but rewarding to know you can be trusted with a 100K super car. In the UK almost every body shop now uses water based paints, I see you used solvent base in this video, I prefer this too. I left the motor trade soon after I was only given 6 1/2 hrs on an insurance job to repaint two bumper bars a new wing and two door skins and repair the rear 1/4 panel. how could they expect you to earn you wages doing something like that.... Keep the video's coming they are very good
I love all your vids btw, just subscribed! Im a painter as of the past 16 years. Still learning everyday. Can u do a video on wetbeds and blending pearls and hard to blend colors etc?
great educational video man, appreciate your time, posting and sharing it. Very useful, I'm finishing up my DIY car project and preparing it to paint. Great job man!
My kids watch these videos with Play-Doh and slime called satisfying videos will this is my version of that these videos are not too long and is completely satisfying to watch you complete these jobs and see how you do it you are a gift to a lot of painters like myself that are good but not great thank you for everything you do keep it up man
Nice Mr. Gunman! Cheers from Griffin Georgia in the States. I am learning to paint at Fifty years old, retiring from Fire Dept soon and have always wanted to paint. Adding on to my garage and putting in a Paint Booth. Been practicing with House of Kolor and some flakes, having a Blast! Watching and learning, thanks Mate!
Novice when it comes to painting a whole car and I appreciate the editing and getting right into the job. Shooting the basecoat is new to me. Thanks and I'll be looking at your other videos.
NOT too long. As long as you keep the info coming, We're paying attention. A lot of videos keep you riveted for much longer. Ed Kafka has one that comes to mind, he is flaming a tank, and you never get bored, when it's over, you're disappointed. I think that one is about 40 minutes. You do a fine job of narration while you work. Informative and well done! Maybe subtitle or overdub the section with bad audio (@ 7:20) Keep em coming, Thanks, Scott
I thought I had this metallic spray painting down pat, then I painted the bonnet, and now have wicked mottling. I figured I didn't allow the base metallic to dry off and put very heavy coats of clear down. Been following this channel, and bought the devilbiss GPI. Keep up the great videos mate!
Mate you are very quick with the gun. Lovely skill to watch. I like it how you include all the footage so we know how it is done. If the others don't like it they can always use the fast forward button
Actually, he's spraying very slowly but that's the HVLP gun that restricts how much you can put on. In the old days, they used a suction feed gun and you would spray three times as fast...you had to because you were pounding on the paint and if you slowed up ,you would get runs.
I love your work lots of detail about psi temp and mixtures love it keep doing what your doing wish you were in the us to paint my corvette your work comes out flawless like diamond's 👌
Gunman this my first time watching your videos I just wanted to know (if you already didn't do one on it) if you could make a video on how to actually use the gun to spray for a first timer?
Great vid's mate.. learned a lot from them, you explain a lot more then most other vid's., you make it look so bloody easy,,lol cheer's from Belfast n,i
Well done beautiful finishing and also nice application mate. You are good man. I like to watch other people and their technique because there is always room for to improve. I'm car painter as my self.
Don't wanna be a jerk and I do car paint jobs sometimes but trust me - if you wanna paint car good you can't go cheap. Good job is never cheap and cheap job is never good. Painting car DIY style you saving on labor only. You need good compressor at least 30 Gal (100-120 L) and good gun. Everything else you can go cheap. Painting is 10% of work. 90% is preparation a surface.
I have been watching few of your videos over the past 2 weeks. I have to say it is pretty handy to have the painter themself comment on the skills and technique used on each car. I hope your business gets a positive effect from the videos myou've uploaded so you can assure your customers how you handled the job. Really enjoying watching your videos whenever I feel like watching and listening. I did do work expirence as a panel beater for 2 weeks - and went back for 2 weeks on holidays for more work.
A good video for me as I live in Western Australia; particularly about the temperature and how it affects the paint. I had ideal conditions yesterday for the primer but it is raining today and with no booth so painting is off..It was usefull to see your paint style and I shall try to replicate that when spray colour.
I'm in refinishing/ collision school right now, but we haven't had any booth time yet. This is an excellent video explaining what I've learned so far in the classroom! I like how you explained the blend reducer, I've been curious how that works. Great video!! Thanks for posting this!
VERY nice !!! ( 11:55 ) you mentioned nice orange peel ) ??? No one wants orange peel ? Also , can regular reducer be used to as the ''' blending reducer '' ? Actually never tried that '' blending technique ! Thanks so much for superb video !!
hi you're spraying is flawless . always wanted to learn to spray like a professional. really appreciate all the hard work you put into your videos. and explaining how to do this etc in the most comprehensive way. hats off to you. I've subscribed. I bought a couple of sprayguns of ebay. but they are absolutely crap. my fault they where cheap. but after seeing your video on spray guns I've decided to purchase the deVilbiss gti. thanks again for all your hard work. be nice to know you're name.
cheers gunman the use of diffrent air caps is some thing I will look in to (was not aware there was a choice ) wish i had 35 deg to spray in here in NZ. that would make life real easy LoL Great tutorial as always
Great man, thanks for your feedback and make sure you check out some of my more recent videos, I think they are better than this video and there are some pretty cool ones coming soon too. Thanks again and pleased to meet you Carlos.
The Gunman I’ve been watching some of newer vids and I’m hooked !! I learned so much already. Great views with head cam too. Helps you get a feel for the speed and distance etc. Thanks again mate 👍🏻

Great job mate, takes me back to my painting days. Everything on point
I learn a lot from your videos. All it takes is confidence and patience and you can easily do good work.
This is a really GOOD video. Not too long at all! It is very instructive for people who want to learn how to blend repairs in the color coat.
Thanks for your video! I have done some paintjobs on my old beetle for several years. I stepped up a bit and now also did a fender, door, door paintjob on my black magic metallic Golf. I went well. I get several hints from your videos. That helped me a for do a descent job.
Always plenty of detail and very informative. Keep up the great work!
Your the best man,I have been a mechanical auto repair owner for many years,Just took up spraying as a hobby you have helped me a lot thank you

It's bullshit hey, they are starting to do the same shit here in Australia.
You're my favorite painter to watch on TH-cam. Upload more vids! :)
it's not too long I like watching paint jobs getting done that's how we learn from each other great job..
Thanks Desi, check out my newer videos I think I've got a lot better at my video making lately.
I love all your vids btw, just subscribed! Im a painter as of the past 16 years. Still learning everyday. Can u do a video on wetbeds and blending pearls and hard to blend colors etc?
Joy to watch every move of a pro. Looks like the paint job has renewed the car.

This is my first video to reach 100,000 views on TH-cam, check it out if you missed it.
hey man, do you scrub the base color before applying the clear coat?
fishbonedotcom No, sometimes I use a tack cloth gently
+The Gunman is is so because the metallic bits can shift ?
Ednamole Qwe No it's mainly if the metallic starts drying as you're applying and goes dusty on blend areas
The Gunman how come you never use sealer?
Dont be worried about the length of the video longer they are the more I can learn from you . Amazing work man . The k you for doing this
Thanks again for watching man, I value your feedback too cheers.

WOW gunman over a mil. Great job. I was terrible at making videos. But getting better now. More metal work stuff now. less paint.
Mate you are very quick with the gun. Lovely skill to watch. I like it how you include all the footage so we know how it is done. If the others don't like it they can always use the fast forward button

Brother, you talk about your videos being too long, man I can literally watch you paint cars for hours on end! Great videos! Keep up the good work!

Informative video, well done! Video length not an issue.

I'll make a video like that for you.
