Most comprehensive tutorial on painting iv'e seen on the internet. That includes some of the best out there. Excellent!
Thank you very much means a lot
Absolutely done and spoken superbly.
Hands down, this has got to be one of the best paint video's on TH-cam. I myself have been painting for 30 yrs and this is very informative. This is truly a video you should watch before you decide to dive into painting your rides....
Thank you very much that means a lot
Great Information Video !!! GREAT JOB !!!
The booth berry has spoken!!!! Seriously though you guys are the best. Documenting and discussing this process made what would have been a a long day even longer. Thank you for putting in the time and energy to show the details, share the experience and explain those little details. So many times people who have years of experience don’t remember what’s it’s like to be a beginner. I don’t know how you stayed connected to it but this is no doubt the most comprehensive paint video on TH-cam. Just awesome 🙌🏼
Hahahahahahahahahahaha thanks Phil appreciate your kind words. Sincerely the booth berry 🤣🤣
Nothing like a dirty paint both
no duss...no fuss...
The light got me
As a bodyman of 30yrs, you guys are covering everything 👍 And, in my experience, are giving great advice and suggestions. It takes a lifetime of mistakes and experience to put together in one video what to do and not to do. Thank you for all that your doing to help folks get great results with there paint and bodywork 🙂👍 Awesome job!
Thanks for sharing!
Or your born with a natural talent
@@DynoDieselWagon nobody is born knowing how to paint. Talent needs instruction.
Great tutorial! Most guys would sell this video instead of sharing it so thank you for your time and patience. It really helps me do the best job I can do and love my work too. Keep em coming!
You're very welcome!
As a noob watching videos on TH-cam to learn and experiment, this is BY FAR THE MOST INFORMATIVE VIDEO I’ve seen.
Thanks…I’m inspired
Wow, thanks!
I’m an amateur painter but on my rare projects I get into my TH-cam research and have watched countless hours of painting videos. Your videos give by far give the most useful intelligent information. You’re very knowledgeable and generous with your tips. I can’t believe I’m watching a 2 hr TH-cam video on painting. Thank you for doing this.
Thank you for watching!!!
Best video I've ever seen for paint...top to bottom. Thank you, sir.
Very welcome thank you
At around the 51 minute mark I could really see the straightness of that fender when that blue went down. Beautiful work!
Thank you very much!
This video should be the first and maybe only video we need to paint like a pro. A million thanks for sharing YEARS of learning.
Thank you so much Frank!
I learned a crazy amount of info in this video , poor mans mixer, spray gun light, consistent gun setup, water is not the reducer for waterborne paint..lol
Super helpful video..thanks again!
You"re very welcome
You do a good job at explaining things and you stick to protocol. Nothing is “good enough”. I appreciate that.
Paul
Thank you very much!
You a bad man with that gun
Thank you!!
Best paint video I have ever watched 👍💯
Thank you! Much more coming soon!
This Video is the best with a ton of valuable tips to guid anyone that wants to do it Right thank you!
Anytime glad you liked it!
a video worth watching actually all his videos and it's worth going back and watching them over and over . definitely my go-to guy for all auto body needs. Hands down the best instructional vids you will find on any platform.
Wow thank you so much!
Nice to know craftsmen like you still exist! 👍
Thank you!!!
I have been through this twice now and each time i picked so much more, no doubt I will again. Not only is it educational , but inspirational too. I'm still in bodywork. Wish I wasn't. Can't wait for the rest to follow. I've said before how much time this is for you and appreciate that so much, but the icing on the cake for me is the real time. I follow a few guys on the tube 1 has made me less afraid of the of 2 pack failure, but the booth berry is just unreal to share 25 years of hard grind. Free! Thanks matey
Thank you so much!! Happy to help!
Wow! What a lot of information. I haven't painted a car in almost 30 years. What has gone on in those years is mind blowing. I have watched this twice, trying to get my head around all the new paints, polyester, urethane, water born, primer surfaces/sealers---- Thank you for taking the time to post. I doubt if I will have a chance to use this information but I can still dream. Working on my pickup that has come to it's peak--- I can peak through the rockers, I can peak through the cab corners--- You get it. I live in the rust belt. Thanks again and I now see you have several other posts on painting that I haven't seen.
Thank you many more to come!
I watched because at the beginning of the video ,
I could tell that you are a man that is attention to detail. I’m a Marine 🇺🇸 , We are All Very Attention to Detail . Good job 👍 ❤️
Semper Fi 🇺🇸
Thank you very much! Thank you for your service!!
Wow! Once you put the clear on, the color really pops. Beautiful color 👍 Great job too.
Thank you
Most thorough and informative instructional video I have seen on this subject. I have seen many good videos showing paint jobs etc. but this video was absolutely great explaining how/what to do. Thank you, Sylvesters Customs!!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you
Great information on metallic lay down. I’ve seen other pro painters using this exact routine. But I’ve never seen a car painted in parts that had metallic going down. You’ve got to be pretty darn good to do that and have it end up looking like the entire car was painted all at once. Great video. All in the skill and know how.
Thank you very much
I've been watching paint & body videos for over 5 years and this is good stuff. Once again I'm getting information on this channel that you will not hear anywhere else. Thanks again for a very detailed video!
@@jdimeo1966 it’s all good I will edit. Thanks didn’t want to see you mess up your paint job 👍🏻
Thoughrly enjoyed. 25yrs painting collision work still enjoy watching someone that enjoys and knows what there doing. Just started building my own 30 x 80 shop so I can start restoring and customizing. The quantity over quality just became more than I can stand. Love the vid.
Thank you very much!! Good luck on your shop!
I very much like the direction you are going with your videos. Trying to wade through collision production techniques to high end custom techniques has been quite tricky. I have learned a lot from others but this is the direction I’m wanting to go. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you!
Hey... Nice see you again Eric...😃 Looking forward to whatever...👍✨
Genius explanation! I feel even more confident I learned something about spraying and prepping.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for taking the time to share this with us!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I know this was a lot of work to shoot and edit the video in addition to prep and painting - but thank you very much for this great lesson.
You got it, glad it helps.
im turning 50 this year been painting 30 odd years this was very informative with this never ending quest for a perfect pant job iam constantly looking & listening to anyone willing to show or tell me something ...then i can try it and see if it works for me...
great video once again....
Thank you that’s what it’s all about 🙌🏻
I'm obligated to give you a thumbs up no matter what. I learned more from watching one of your shows then I did from watching years of DIY Auto School 🤣
Much appreciated on the kind words!
DIY Auto School does show how to freak out properly
A very handsome and informative blueberry at that!
Hahahaha thanks!
Good stuff as always man... what a time to be alive to have this info at your fingertips. Answering so many lingering questions that are often muttered under my breath lol. Thanks for taking care of some of my dumb blonde moments.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha glad we’re of help!! Thank you
Excellent video. gives me some confidence for my first show car paint job.
Glad we could help!
By far the most thorough video on painting on utube I've ever seen.
Thank you so much!
This is the best paint tutorial on youtube its everything you're taught in auto body shop just short of hands on
Thank you very much!
Just come across your channel mate, love it!
I've been in the game around 26 years now, my own business for the last 14 years and last 4-5 years just doing high end Resto's, your a good teacher and theres a few things you've shown that I'll be taking on board.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much!
I watched lots of painters on TH-cam but non of them goes to detail as much as you do 👍🏽 GENEROUS
Thank you !! 🙌🏻
Great video buddy, isnt that gun the LS400 not the WS400 ?
Yeah you are probably right 🤣
I've always used sealer on a total respray but normally not on a panel spray. I would definitely use a sealer on an all over restoration spray. Just the way I was taught decades ago but I've seen guys do things I wouldn't dream of and get great looking results. I really dig the way you keep DOPE (Data On Previous Engagements) like a sniper keeps.
Consistency brings confidence! Thank you 🙌🏻
Love the detail you provide. Awesomely done!!!!!
Glad you liked it!
Sylvester you rock.. watched many paint videos and none compare to the in-depth knowledge you share. Thanks so much !!
Thank you!!
I have never sprayed water borne but either way, many tips, lots of information and just a great tutorial. Learning has occurred! Thanks Travis.
Thanks for watching!
Your channel has become overall my goto channel. I save them and go back and rewatch and take notes!!!!
I’m a beginner never spread a car, few motorcycles and bike frames, so each vid is a major learning course. I have a 65 C-10 tore apart, once body work is completed could I spray out each part and then put back together and spray the “last three coats”. I’m not sure/afraid I can get it blended/uniform paint on all panels!! I’m not wanting show circuit quality paint job. It’s going to be a daily/weekend driver
Thx for all your input
Thanks glad they are helpful. Are we talking about paint? Or primer? Primer you can but it won’t be as good as it would be sprayed together.
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS more paint! I’m not so sure I could spray out each individual panel and have a uniform color once I reassemble truck!!
I have it in my brain lay down one or two coats assembled truck then come back over with last coat and then clear???
I really appreciate your videos. I’m building a 67 f100 and you are helping me a lot with my build . Thank you .
Very glad to hear!
Outstanding. Answered many questions I had. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Outstanding!
Thank you!
Larry
Great video. I am in the initial stages of painting the rear panels on my C7 for the second time (total amateur). I really liked the explanation regarding sealer. In the past I have not used sealer - mainly because I didn't know any better. I have been painting in the garage for about 4 years - just my stuff. Liked your take on 25 years of screwups. I'm there with screwups but only 4 years worth! Thanks for taking the time to present this - much appreciated.
Thanks we’re all on a stepping stone of experience. Good luck!
I like how you talked about being calm when painting…. Every paint job I do I get stressed out while I am painting-not sure why. Most of the paint jobs are fine but I definately see lots of areas I can improve upon after watching your videos. I think the biggest takeaway is to paint every job like you’re shooting a candy-I think this breeds good habits. Thanks for sharing!
That’s awesome. I’m glad you got something out of it. Thanks for watching.
The dreaded nerves! The more you care about the vehicle, the worse the nerves are. At least that’s how it is for me.
Truth!
Thank you! Very informative. One of the best instructives videos on YT.
Much appreciated!
Brilliant video! Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Great explanation on painting. Excited to see more
Soon!!
Explaining the arrangement of metallic in the base at 75% overlap at 15psi makes sense. Great work!
Thank you very much
Thank you for taking the time to make these great videos!
My pleasure!
Awesome video with a ton of useful information and experience. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Glad it was helpful! You’re welcome
Thorough and informative. High quality vid thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant presentation! I've been finishing furniture for 35 years and the amount of crossover info is a lot. You presented the details extremely well. Thank you for the time you put in. You've convinced me earlier to go with the ppg vp epoxy hybrid and this video helped fill in some questions I had. Cheers John.
That’s awesome it just streamlines the process. You will love it.
John, That is PPG Vibrance Collection, 2050 DTM, High Build and Epoxy Based that can be sanded.
The first time I saw it on Sylvester's Customs, my first thought was this stuff does everything and must cost at least $25 a quart, right?
Very good explanation and the perfect tutorial into waterborne paint products. I am just joking about the $25 a quart, with stuff this good from PPG it has to be at least $32.50 per quart?
DK, Omaha.
@@deankay4434 I'm expecting it to be at least double your high price. But it looks to be well worth it.
@@mercedesmaintenance.6339 I had just a little fun as they don't come thru the neighborhood playing a song & selling it out the side door!
I have notice some paint gun sales promote internal coating for waterborne paint perhaps anodized. I enjoyed the video and caught the Kommiski reference to "Spay like a robot"! It gets into your head, but true. DK, Omaha.
Never better! Great job!
Thanks again!
Amazing video sir! Wow, that is a sweet Lincoln.
Thank you !!
Glad to see some new video! You make the best paint videos out here

The best detailed explanation’ Continue your videos.
I appreciate that! Thank you
Thank you for info. Great video sir.
My pleasure
That was certainly a learning curve for me greatly appreciated
Thank you!!
I meant to say learning experience thank you
Great info! The EHP is actually cheaper per ounce than DBC but due to the reduction difference it comes out about the same. I like EHP because it lays flatter with better color control. Me and my partner sprayed different panels on a silver car. He sprays with SATA, I spray with Iwata. When the car was assembled, there was no mismatch at all. Downside is humidity is a killer with EHP. I wish PPG would develop a faster reducer. All paint companies bragged on water initially. Then I found out the test market was Southwest with dry heat/no humidity. I still bounce between water and solvent depending on the job. I use degreaser to wetsand any imperfections with EHP dragging the paper in one direction to avoid tearing the color. I'll only use an orientation coat if necessary, usually on lighter metallics or pearls. Not all the time but I tighten up the material about a turn with 12 -15 psi for that coat and only once instead of three. Contrary to PPG, orientation coats do not alter the color like they claim. I've been using the 5700 for quite a while. Great gloss retention and buffs great. Good for leveling painted graphics too. I slow it down as much as possible. Usually the 95 activator and reducer. Flow coating is a waste of time and material. With this 5700, 4-5 coats is plenty to flat sand and buff and still bury tape lines. I notice you don't use any Venturi driers. Do you have any certain set up in your booth for extra air flow? I was at a training facility and they had ceiling fans mounted to the upper plenum. Huge difference. I have a 3M full face mask. It's not air supplied but covers the whole face and takes the regular filters the half face does. Also,check into the spray socks to cover the head.
Wow all amazing info thanks so much for sharing I’ll look into all of that. Nothing special in our old booth I just take the time to let it all fully dry. Takes me a looooong time lol
@@SYLVESTERSCUSTOMS
I was messing around with inventing a heated hand held Venturi drier(patent pending) to battle the summer humidity. We used to fire the burner in the booth in summer to dry the intake air before it to the booth. Made a huge difference. The quads are just a wind tunnel blowing dirt around. Wouldn't recommend. Ceiling fans and heat is where it's at.
Thanks Travis!!! Great information! Looks soooo easy I’m sure I’ll knock it out the park on the first try😂😂😂.
Hey, you never know lol 🤣👌🏻
Very good explaining and take the time to talk about details so even a beginner can understand. I have been painter for 20 + years and agree to all you said. The only thing i can bring to the table is that do not use wooden stick for mixing, especially paint. The wood can absorb some pigments wich maybe not so important on a full respray but when you make a repair it will make better colourmatch. I always use plastic sticks.
Ahhhh great tip I would have never thought of that!! Thank you very much!
I can second this; not for paint though same logic applies. For structural adhesives, anything 2-part. The wood can absorb one product more than the other, throwing off your mix ratios. We only use stainless mixing sticks now.
This is a really good tutorial, well done and thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
That was cool
Great great great you are always the painter I trust to follow
Thank you!
The last coats you did I always been taught in the uk they are a drop coat. And normally I would cris crocs the pattern with high metallic bases so you wouldn’t keep going horizontally. What ever works is good enough that’s just how I was taught. Excellent vid.
Yes drop coat or orientation it’s all the same exactly whatever works 👌🏻
I am hoping to learn enough to paint my f350 crew cab dually! I have great respect for your work, keep it coming I am stoked!
You can do it! Thank you!
thx a million for the invaluable info ,Im sure it would've taken me a century to learn lol, ........great work!
Thank you glad you liked it!
I’ll be painting for the second time ever this answered a lot of my questions love the video well deserved like and subscribe from me.
Biggest question this answered for me was figuring out how you like to spray and then setup the gun to work for you. My first time I setup the gun and kept trying to change how I was spraying. This makes so much more sense to me now trying to keep consistency. Much love man can’t wait to learn more
Awesome to hear!!! Thank you so much
very informative Thanks
You're welcome
