- Today we're painting the 1985 Fiero GT with a $39 HVLP paint gun and Nason single stage urethane. The trick to spraying paint with a cheap HVLP paint gun and getting no orange peel is to spray at full pressure... the more pressure you spray at the flatter the paint lays ✅

Looking good. We usually wet the floors first to catch and keep the dust from floating around. But its a free paint job like you said.
Lay it on . When your paint dries it should look like the paints still wet ! Thumbs-up Jolene 👍 Chad 👍 Aidyn and Jim. Super nice paint job Chad. Great content 👌
Couldn’t have said it better my self 👍👍👍👍
Great people, great job
I like how he has his welder and plasma cutter in the paint booth and his mixing bench on the other side of the shop. Those bugs like the smell of paint- it brings out every spider and insect around.
That red color looks very familiar. It reminds me of Carasel Red on Pontiac GTO/The Judge models. I hope the owner likes his paint job. Red oxidizes really fast and fads if you don't take care of it. I like it! Don't you just hate it when bugs land on the first coat of paint. "FRUSTRATING!" LookIng good, Chad!👍
There’s a Jackson Pollock painting I saw at MOMA that has a cigarette butt stuck in the paint along the edge. Obviously Jackson was smoking and painting at the time...so it was handy I guess.
Anyway, the painting is virtually priceless - hundreds of millions - or more. Probably even more because of the J. P. DNA or whatever. Anyway, Chad, don’t sweat the small stuff! A couple of genuine Nova Scotia bugs ups the value of this Fiero. Enjoyed the video. Good work Jolene!
Chad is really a motiving, get-it-done and talented builder! After years of low-budget builds and garage paint jobs I still am amazed by his skill and energy. Awesome!
I would have hosed down the booth with water to keep the dirt and dust down and I would have started painting on the roof to the deck lid then down a side to the hood then down the other side.
If don't know what your looking at, you will miss alot of his skill. He's constantly judging on the thickness and coverage the whole time he paints, just like painting a canvas. Beautiful!
Start on the roof allowing overspray to land and be melted by the first wet coat. Doing the roof after the hood allows the overspray to land on the semi dry hood, causing peel or texture.
Looking forward to seeing it running down the road great work you two make a great team 👍
great track
I am just starting out painting and am trying to figure out what to buy as far as paints, clears and tints. Every time I think I have it figured out, I discover that the "paint job" I just watched was a temporary, peelable paint. I would love to paint my car in candy green permanently (after many practice runs on scrap pieces) but am getting so frustrated with the convergence of regular paint and peelable paint. What exactly makes a peelable paint peelable?
I thought Chad painted lots of cars before...😮😮😮 no wax and grease remover, no tac cloth, no wet floor, blew the car off before painting, stirred up the dust... but nothing some wet sanding and buffing won't remove.. idk, just my thoughts 😕.. still love the channel 🎉🎉🎉
I like this guy as a painter myself . Just no B's and to the point .
Great job
Sweet paint job!!! She's red again boys!
Just few hours and this fiero will be ready, good job!
I noticed you mix 4 to 1 basecoat+thinner? Shouldn't be 1to 1? Thax
If you use a shaker?How do you get th micro air bubbles out of urethane. I use 2 filters
What kind of epoxy do you use. Is it in the primer.. I'm getting my car sanded down and primer is next. What should I use when I'm on a tight budget..
Yes a low cost paint gun will work with a solid color however if you want to have nice metallic even coating you need a good high money gun.
Awesome RED one faster nice always watching
Cheers🍺🍻🍺🍻 KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸😎👍
It’s Friiday !!
If your painting a whole car sometimes it helps to have some reducer in another gun so when you come around and it’s dry you just mist some reducer over it to melt it in
我才想第一道就噴那麽溼，怎麼可能沒蠟點👍
Looking good how does that nason single stage with clear hardener polish? I know you guys mention you never polish but I’d imagine your polishing nibs out at least?
Badchat you're a good painter I wish I could be there and take some get some tips from you you're good thank you for sending the video
Looks amazing Chad
Nice job Bad Chad you and yr Beautiful queen there are amazing. I luv watching all your content. Good job on this car man for real.💪🏼 Free job well done
THE ONE WE HAVE BEEN ALL WAITING FOR THANKS CHAD AND JOLENE
What are you doing narrow fan shooting in cracks I love it I'm gonna try that I down nobody that's trying
his patience and skill and experience just all ran into each other on this car,its beautiful,take a bow CHAD,your overlap and patience is paying off
Would love to see it dry and out in the sunlight
Awesome....
Love ur channel. Do you make builds for folks like me.Let me know.
Got a chuckle outta "30 minutes later" 😁
the reason his results are so dramatic is the million dollar climate controlled paint room leftover paint $50 paint gun pressure regulator for consistency, superior lighting but seriously, like another comment i will say it again how the hell does he do it jolene i love your welding capabilities
Chads intensity and concentration while paint or doing anything for that matter is awesome. Giving 100% is the only way he rolls and this 'freebie' job is as good as any out there. Thank you, take care and peace out.
It ain't the quality of the paint gun that matters, it's the quality of the person pulling the trigger. Bullseye, Chad!
You can do it any way you want, yes you can, but I always do the unders and overs first that way you never have to change the gun settings during the wotk.
Really appreciate the honesty. I get all the same feelings you were expressing.... forgetting some details... getting nervous... stuff like that. Most people on the tube just act like a pro even though they are not. Lol. Good show!
If you aren’t a little nervous, you probably don’t care about the work you are about to do.
I agree. As a hobby, I've painted around 20 cars over the years. Always nervous when getting ready to spray. I painted my first car in 1979, in my driveway. People are so lucky to have TH-cam now. You can learn anything you want, including how to paint a car. I built a very nice paint booth 30 years ago, but I haven't painted in 15 years, mostly due to the cost of good quality paint and materials...Cheers to Bad Chad for making these videos.
Hi Chad and Jolene, when you say you use high pressure to paint, what pressure is that?
Wondering same question
@@rallygem same here, what's the pressure?
Chad, how much paint did you need to do the three coats, and what pressure do you spray at ? Enjoy it immensely, great job.
The urethane looks great if applied well. I had a 68' charger back in the eighties that was painted with urethane single stage in dark metallic green and it looked like a new car when it was done and after watching how well your 39 dollar paint gun worked it has inspired me to try one myself.
Hi Chad Jolene, it’s JR. I don’t know if you use a tack rag before every paint job but I’ve been painting cars for over 30 years and I can tell you it really makes a difference. That’s all, I just want to help if I can. You both keep up the good work and I’ll see you on the next video. Bye-bye
A tac rag is a must, rags and prep sol take most of it off put there is still a decent amount of shit left after that usually
yeah and after that i used to spray a coat of 666 before sealer and final paint..😅
@BabyPiggy He's said before he uses windex to clean the surface and that's it. It works for him. Most of the paint jobs I see him do are good but he doesn't go overboard on putting in tons of unnecessary hours if the project doesn't warrant that. It's a Fiero for godsakes. They were marketed as a poor man's vette. They used a chevette suspension. lol.
Blow, tac & Static for the win as Robbie Layton says.
@@85square actually no there isnt....if u use the proper care from the start to final prep then the dirt and residue should be gone. Also a clean environment is a must with a single stage. With a base coat clear coat if u get some dirt, dust or bugs u can fix it before the clear. If its a single stage all u have is the prep and environment element that will dictate the outcome amd what level of painter u are..
I paint ppg single stage everyday with a ppg base / clear overall paint job about 3times a week. Probably over 900 53ft 8 axle trailers and semi trucks.. from plain jane to 7 or 8 different candy colors (tri stage).. so i am still in training
What a great paint job, Chad! Looking like a jewel now! And thank you, Jolene, for recording it for posterity! Take care.😊
Tim is gonna have a sweet looking car for sure! Thanks Chad and Jolene! Love the channel!
You should repaint your paint booth white again white looks dingy You’ll see a lot better job if you do that I’m just saying it’s a thought
So it looks like it only took 2 quarts to paint the single stage? I’m prepping to paint my own so I just wanna know what paint kit to buy. Love the Vids Chad. 🤙🏻
Really looks great ! There's nothing like painting a car to get your day going ! What color is the wing going to be ? I hope you have enough paint for it if it's going to be red !
Thanks for the great video guys ,that’s going to look nice when it’s all said and done ,and I reckon your going to be glad to see the arse end of it when it leaves ,your a bloody master of your art mate ,Cheers from down under.
CHAD,,A COUPLE ,,SUGGESTIONS,, From a guy thats painted over 10k cars/trucks i my carreer,, 1st ALWAYS NOT JUST DUST WITH AIR,,USE A TACK RAG OR TACK CLOTH,its a sticky cloth that u litely go from top to bottom inc masking paper,,USE GRAVITY ,,TOP TO BOTTOM,, 2nd try to Ground Car,,especially a plastic car like Fiero ,,Static builds up every time you wipe car n even blowing air over panels creates , a static charge that u want to neutralize , So to attract less Dirt n Dust ,,3rd LESS IS MORE,,Figure out how to pattern job,,meaning take the least # of passes around painted areas,,(EX Fiero is short car so U can probably reach over hood from front ,,Always reach away from yourself n work back toward outside,,On a longer car You'd have to Paint Rt 1/2 then Lft 1/2, and work back to outside n continue across top of fender to bottom,,Don't worry about little tails of fender or 1/4 panels,, Paint them When U Paint the Doors,get to mid point and then extend your reach to catch n paint lower fenders n rear fenders,,AGAIN LESS IS MORE,,U WILL MAKE LESS PASSES AND GET MORE MATERIAL ON CAR WITH LESS OVER LAPP ,,AND MINIMIZE CHANCE OF RUNNING PNT ,,BUT EVENLY FLOW COAT ALL AREAS THE SAME ,, ON A SHORT REAR CAR ,,STAND AT REAR,,N WORK FROM REAR WINDOW BACK ACROSS REAR LID SIDE TO SIDE ,,PAINT IT LIKE A BOX ,,STAY 8-10 INCHES OR HANDS BREATH AT 90 degrees to panel u r spraying,,Then go to outside of Side 1/4 Pnl n start at top front to rear all way to bottom of main face ,,n give it 1 spray arch around wheel,,Again less is More ,,THEN STOP,,,STOP,, WALK AROUND ,,JOB LOOK,,FROM DIFF ANGLES ,,TO SEE,,DRY SPOTS,, DIRT,, BUGS ,,ETC,, IF U GET BIG DIRT OR BUGS,, MAKE A REVERSE STICKY TAPE CONE ,, n walk around and carefully dab into just barely touching imperfection to pull it Out of Wet Panel,,don't worry do it wet in first or second coat,,it will flow out ,,Don't Blow more Paint,,Again Less Is More ,,LET IT FLOW,,,WAIT LIKE U SAID CHAD ,,UNTIL U CAN TOUCH N GET NO PAINT ,,USUALLY 20-30mins depending on Temperature n Atmosphere,,On rainy days u get less evaporation,,Meaning U n diff directions eed to Let it Dry more,, Dry Hot Days it will dry quicker ,,,3 COATS OF SINGLE STAGE,,should be quite enough,,AGAIN CAT WALK JOB N LOOK AT 45degree angels to see all
Yesir tack rags are a game changer. I never painted single stage but I'm a paint er of 7 years base and clear . I'm interested in trying single .
You need to make a video and show Chad.
I would love this dude to make a video ❤❤❤
Wow
A lot of good knowledge gleaned only from experience except here! Thank you so much!
Does Chad work out he 's looking quite buff . What 's your secret ?
Hard work 😉
I love you chad but it’s time to shave that head my brother
The paint look good ! Can't wait to see it all together , I bet it is really going to pop . Great job Chad & Jolene ! All that with a 39 dollar gun ?
What is his regulator set at?
A cheap gun can spray a soild color....lets see how well it does with metallics thats the true test of a gun. Also how well can it blend
That's a long walk to re-fill the gun. Better you take the paint into the booth. Great colour and nice pressure..!!
Thanks Jolene and Chad for all the videos. What can I say you can do it however you want but this is how I do it Lol 😊 your the best 👍
You should really start letting jolene cut your hair bub.
I wait up at night to watch Chad at work, well worth the wait, watching from Devon in the UK
56th! RAD BAD CHAD! YIPPIE! BOY HOWDY! YIKES! Roger in Pierre South Dakota USA
Looking good & getting it done! Chad, tell us what "Full pressure" means. Can't mean full compressor pressure, can it??? 150-175 PSI straight from compressor, no regulator? REALLY???? Thnx
Looking forward to you laying down paint. Can’t wait to see it all back together and shiny
Love watching and learning. Thanks for the hard work you two. Very satisfying to watch
You seem lost painting that
He had to stop to take a deep breath of acitone every few minutes and then go back and do touch up on most of the car? I bet overspray is gonna be a bitch
Oh you silly goose. He did fine. Couple of Armchair fabricators
Just wondering if you disassemble that cheap ass spray gun and clean it out before you start spraying. I myself have way more expensive spray guns. I wouldn’t even think about using a harbor freight junk.
Good luck
The ventilation system in the paint shop still works, it's immortal. It just makes a little noise, like they are grinding stones. 😁
Great job guys. 👍
Greetings from Switzerland
You don't notice those noises slowly getting louder over the years.
Happened to me recently when our clothes washer threw its bearings. I only realised afterwards that for the last couple of months we'd had to shut the laundry door it got so loud. I'm an engineer and should definitely have known better the new one is all but silent, like it should be 🤦🏻♂️
@@prdoohan Yes, you are right, with daily habit you do not notice that the noises increase. It happened to me too with the car's exhaust pipe rusting slowly. 😅
hi chaddie boy like to see people do it themselves...but h v l p its all in the name...low pressure if you turn the pressure down you wont hose so much paint on but a very good effort i painted a model a with a £15 spray gun and it looked mint....so it can be done for no money...if you get plenty of paint on and it looks rough flat it back with 1500 wet polish it up a week later....billy
like the tape idea to remove a speck cool
I LOVE WATCHING YOU PAINT BAD CHAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS LIKE WATCHING A FAMOUS ARTIST AT HIS/HER CRAFT, IF THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Chad n Jolene…. Really enjoyed this journey on Tim’s car, can’t wait to see his face…😎🤙
Enjoy your upcoming vacation. Hope you come back. Love your daily video peak into your life and your wonderful philosophy on life.
You can definitely tell the difference from one of your free paint jobs compared to a paying customer
Nice spray gun work as you always kept a wet edge. TCP global sold a 3 gun package for around a hundred bucks. My neighbor who had a body shop years ago restored his 1913 Studebaker used one and the paint is flawless. Its more the operator than the equipment. And I produced cleaner paint jobs in a garage than a spray booth. Good job Chad
Chad- great show- great job- as usual ! What pressure you are shooting this with?
thanks, ct
Nice paint job Chad and jolene it's really going to look nice when it's finished. I would paint the spoiler black to match the other bits of black on the car it would make it stand out more. But that's just my opinion. Keep up the great work the both of you 👍 👏
The car already looks much better with the red paint on it. I can't wait to see it with the silver and black accent. Chad and Jolene are awesome.
It’s red now lol
That's that NASON single stage nasty stuff. We use that at my shop man when you spray white your dam eyelids, eyebrows, everything is white 🐻❄️ lol shiney paint. Nice Job Chad 💪🏼🤙🏼
What a treat watching the whole process unfold. Thanks Chad and Jolene
What pressure is at the gun while triggered, or on air.... not static psi. Ty
Today is the payoff as we get to see color. Thanks Chad and Jolene
The paint job looks really good Chad! The color really pops! I enjoyed watching you spray every pass but I hate to say it again paint Elvis! The colors for Elvis and your patterns embody a classic late 50's early 60's customs. I can't wait to see those colors sprayed it is almost hypnotizing watching each pass. Excellent painting Chad.
I've never seen anyone mix and then shoot paint without disposable gloves without get paint on their hands .
Brilliant bit of skill Chad on gun & jolene on camera👍👍👍👍🇬🇧manchester england 🇬🇧
Personally I'd set up a small table in there so you don't have to keep going in and out ti refill...but that's just me...
That paint job reminds me off back in the 70s when i was kid painting cars for cash on the side to go partying. I could n't get away with it now !!! Well done Chad its nice to help a friend out. Tack rag or microfibre would help keep the dust with a little water on the floor but hey ho it looks ok.
It mite be a cheap gun!! BUT THATS SKILL!!
Hello Chad & Jolene and Aidyn. I hope that you all have a great day today. . Its Friday. The Fiero is looking great. Who is going to be building the motor for Jolenes car?
Good to see how nice it comes out using inexpensive tools
Hey man, I think you should start the hood and the roof from the side, not from the middle. When you reach the middle, you walk fast to the other side and repeat from the same place while it's still wet
Son, you’re talented. Great job.
Hi from south Texas
Great job!! I know it's a freebie. But family is priceless .Wait till you see Jolene Father's face .Sometimes that's the only payment you need to see the look in there face. I have paint my daughters cars and it was always worth it to me to look what u have done for someone else .Keep up the good work teaching everyone how to do things always enjoy watching. showing love from Texas
Looks great, I have one of those elcheapo guns and turning the pressure up worked awesome last time, thaks for the advice but painting outside wasnt exactly ideal but thats what I had and the car came out ok.
Chad, YOU R AN AMAZING GUY , BUT NOT A PAINTER !!!
I truly wish I had seen your methods for body work and painting before I painted my pickup several years ago! No doubt in my mind it would have been a better finished project! Best wishes Chad! Kevin
wow! no tack-coat
Love the red color! Looking good,Tim should be very pleased, I sure would be. Thanks for sharing, great job to you both!!
Tim has 50 something cars this is probably the best one!
Does Chad have like 90psi at the gun?
single stage is sprayed: 2 an a half coats, 2 medium coats( the paint should be taky in between coats). the half coat is a pulled back mist coat usually for organizing the metallics. this is done directly after the panel is 2nd coated. lov all yur vids
