I appreciate this video so much man. I've been an auto tech for years and, now I'm taking on fixing a deer incident on my own car. I have never done body work or mixed paint before and this helped me so much.
Teaching is a science and you my friend, have it down to a tee. I am a hardcore diagnostician. Done everything from electrical, mechanical, engine swaps, AC you name it. I purchased a vehicle from an auction and did everything else but the bodywork. I was a bit antsy until I watched your video. Thanks and Happy 4th!!!
Very good, simple to follow, and informational. I bought 3 paint products (base paint, pearl paint and some medium reducer) to paint a small area on my wife's SUV. The paint vendor was very vague about what to mix and how much. You video made it all very easy to understand, and why the ratio are what they are. Thank you very much!
Awesome Video, I was so confused about this part, thank you for shedding some light for me. Can you please do one on sealer and epoxy. the way you explain makes it easy to comprehend. Thank you in advance
THanks that was helpful. We were trying to work out the Wanda mixing stick which has slightly different markings. We needed to make the paint to 4 :1:10%
Have been repairing/spraying for 30 odd years and always used a measure stick, then used the drip test ! your vid makes it all clear now what I should have done !!! thanks
Thank you so much I’ve recently got a new job and they have me painting wasn’t in the job description but I really enjoy it so much so that I bought a project car that I’m going to try paint myself always struggled with the mixing side of things ended up too strong or too thick but you’ve just explained everything so perfectly I understand it all so very much now and it’s because of you thank you so much !!!!!
Thank you so much for this teaching video. Your details were very much appreciated. Asking folks at the paint store you will not always get the correct guidance I learned a lot. Carry On Sir!
Thank you for clearing out the mixing additives. Some people on here get to caught up on showing work but not focusing on the fundamentals ‼️ you covered everything perfectly.
Thank u I appreciate you taking time away from your personal life. I took a auto introduction class 20 years ago & used that trade for few years in hobby life but then had to get a McDonald's job bc as a young convicted felon was all I could get. Now in my mid 40s still not doing financially well so I am buying a project & don't remember how to paint. Back then there was no TH-cam university.
Thanks very much for the well organized video; everything is just perfect about this excellent lesson. Job Well Done! I have learned a lot, thanks Bro.
After mixing the paint, is there a certain amount of time you need to wait before you start spraying or can you spray right away, or does it all depend on the particular paint/reducer/hardener you're using?
You have no idea how helpful this was, took me about a week to finally find what I needed to know!

Hello Mr. I have a mistake . I mix the pain 3 part of reducer 1 part of the pain .I already finish pain job . Is big problem?
Thanks 👍
You’re welcome ☺️
Simply clear. Great 💪👍
Hope it helped 🙏🏻👍🏻
@@Mechaniclyfe of course it helped me to clear all matters with mixing cups.. great
🔥🔥🔥
thank you so much.
No worries
Thanks. Newbie needing this simple explanation! Only way better...different colored water...food coloring? Meh, but still good.
If I could go back in time I would for sure have used food coloring , either way the lesson is the same
After mixing the paint, is there a certain amount of time you need to wait before you start spraying or can you spray right away, or does it all depend on the particular paint/reducer/hardener you're using?
You can spray right away after proper mixing and stirring.

I love the video thank you so much for making it
Your very welcome
I have a question. I have a 2:1 base coat and reducer. No activator.
Do I not need to apply clear coat after ?
It would be wise to, clear coat acts as a protection for the paint to resist fading scratching etc
Helpfull video good job man.
Thank you glad it helped
@@Mechaniclyfe
What I like is your humility.
Lack of miserliness
@@Mechaniclyfe
I speak right.
@@Mechaniclyfe
Good luck for you.
