Color pusher? Is that kinda like “the first ones free”? 🤣 Kidding! I’m thinking round two will be much better. Going to use a lot more red and work from there. We’ll see what kind of happy accident I can come up with. 😜
Appreciate that more than you know! 🙌🏼 My “artistic” side left the building a long time ago! 😜 Maybe the second attempt won’t be so “muddy”. Way too much brown in the first attempt. 🤦🏼♂️
Hey Troy, I think 8:3:2 looks close albeit the truck color is a ‘faded’ version of what it once was.. If the truck maroon color is original paint aren’t the paint codes stamped in the VIN or decal somewhere. I used to own a 1979 F250 and it was stamped on the underside of the hood
@@troysgarage Ah I see..well that’s the fun part I guess. I’ve been following the build on the truck - great work btw..😁 I only wish I had kept my 79’. My picture of it is the thumbnail of my page
Keep an eye out for tomorrow's video. I redid the test with a better starting point. Hint - a LOT more red then adding blue until we get the perfect match. Full spectrum Red to Blue mixing. Anyone looking for a particular shade of maroon should what tomorrow's video! We NAIL it!!!
Search ebay for Dark Canyon Maroon Gallon Kit Single Stage ACRYLIC ENAMEL Car Auto Paint Kit ........ $103. Enough to do the whole truck I've used these kits with great results
That would take away MOST of the fun though!!! haha, this is a great option no doubt. At this point I'm pretty committed to getting this mix right! Watch for a followup video tomorrow morning. Pretty sure we've got a winning mix! I am going to check out the color "Dark Canyon Maroon" though. See how close it is to what we've made. Thanks for the tip!
I randomly found ur series and have spent the past day and a half watching it all and I want ur truck.
My son won’t even sell it to me! I highly doubt he’d sell it to you. 🤷🏼♂️ 😜
As a kid I worked out a textile plant I was a color pusher. Way less black one drop in the upper colors, maybe. Go get em Bob Ross

Add more red!! Also, I wouldn't do black at all. My painting teacher always told us not to mix black with our colors because it makes them muddy.

@@troysgarage Haha mixing paint is a daunting task. Good luck!!
@@troysgarage That may have sounded sarcastic, but I actually meant it.
Hahaha, I only speak sarcasm so it still made sense to me! 😜🤣

They look more maroon in the video than in real life. 🤔
Wait..... aren’t dogs color blind? 😜

Yeah it is, but I’m too cheap to pay for the “real paint”. Plus this is actually kinda fun, although a little stressful! 😅
