    Nice job.
    I had never painted a car or body parts in 30 years and at least 25 cars I've owned. This past week I painted my teenage son's Impreza in an open carport on gravel and dirt ground. I figured out what works for my area (western Colorado). I did 5 and 7 light to medium-wet coats on a whole car, over 4 sessions without fail. Apply and let dry for 15 (minimum) to 20 (maximum) minutes between coats and it works fine for the paints I used. You should spray two small test areas with all environmental/time factors the same before the actual project. For example, if you have an area to spray that takes 10 minutes to paint it, wait and warm-up/shake your next can(s) for 5 minutes and start the next coat. That's a total of 15 minutes. I know up to 20 minutes is also good. But 40 minutes was too long because that induced chemical reactions and severe wrinkling. I painted in the same order/pattern each time I sprayed a section. I had zero runs, spray errors, or reaction defects. The original paint condition was below average. No body rust, but 50% of clear coat was gone and hunter green was faded and rock chips galore.
    Below is the weather, process and paint I used.
    1. Up to 3-mph occasional breeze is okay, anything faster or constant is to be avoided. Clear skies, for light, preferred. 20% to 40% humidity. Temperature between 50F and 72F while spraying. Warmed spray cans in hot water in a bucket. Shake them as much as possible.
    Paints used on sides, nose and rear (3 sections):
    -- Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Gloss Navy Blue 2X Paint + Primer: 1 medium-wet coat.
    -- Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Enamel Gloss Navy Blue: 2 medium-wet coats.
    -- Rust-Oleum Stops Rust Enamel Crystal Clear coat: 2 light coats + 2 medium-wet coats. I think a 5th coat could be applied with no problems.
    Paints used on hood, roof and hatchback (1 section):
    -- Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Gloss Black 2X Paint + Primer: 2 coats.
    -- Rust-Oleum Universal Hammered Black: 3 coats (4th coat optional). ***Color dries gloss dark grey with blackish specs, not solid black.
    2. Sanded car with 100 and 150 grit dry paper by hand, with a scrubby dish sponge as the pad to fold the paper around. First, I sanded high defect/damaged spots...double their original size. Then I sanded vertically and again horizontally (cross hatched) the whole car.
    3. From this point forward you must walk carefully to protect from dirt contamination...do not drag or scuff the ground. Wet the surrounding area to help keep dust out of air. Douse car with hot water and wipe down with rags. Let air dry 30 minutes. Check that all areas are smooth/scuffed well...touch up as needed. Wash with hot water+dish soap and rags/sponge. Rinse well. Dry with microfiber. Air dry 15 minutes. Tape up as necessary. 10 to 15 minutes before paint spraying use a microfiber cloth and lighter fluid or mineral spirits (same thing) to wipe down the section to be painted. Immediately before painting wipe all surface with a tack cloth. As you're spraying move slowly and don't scuff the ground.
    4. Even in the open air you will want to use a painting respirator, but at minimum cover nose and mouth with thick damp cloth or N95/N100 face mask. Clear, tight fitting safety eye glasses work best...the larger goggles reflect light and make wet paint difficult to see clearly. I had to go without eye cover and just squinted my eyes when the paint spray was thick, because goggles distorted the light.
    5. It will take these paint formulas 3+ hours to dry to firm finger touch so leave it alone for 5 hours. I let it dry 24 hours in the carport and then put it in the Sunlight for 2 more days before driving. At 25 to 30 days I'll polish and wax it.
    If you want to see pics drop me your email and I'll send you a couple.

    For bugs and drips/runs, masking tape is your best friend. If you have a bug, just carefully extract the bug with tape without touching the paint. All those years of playing Operation® have really paid off. For drips and runs, wait for the paint to tack up a bit, and the drip will still be wet. Place a strip of tape on the drip (plus a few inches on either side, then immediately remove it SLOWLY. Follow up with new paint.
    For orange peel, use a paint can that is at least 15-20 degrees warmer than your paint booth.

      Won't matter if you don't touch the paint when picking up the bug with tape. The bug itself has touched the paint, creating a mark. You've got to deal with that regardless. I find it's best not to mess with it when it's wet, but rather get rid of it when paint dries and re-coat.

It takes time for the heat to transfer through the can into the paint. The can should be periodically agitated while soaking in the hot water to evenly transfer heat into the paint. Heating the can with propane will just cause an explosion.

    Good video! I just want to mention that I live in Saskatchewan. Its winter now. I use aerosol primers, paints and clearcoats to refinish guitars. I apply all products OUTSIDE, minus 10 deg C or colder. I dont wait for warm weather cuz I could wait 5 months for that to happen. The sub zero temps DO NOT have any effect at all as to ease of working or appearance of finish. My aerosols are pre heated in warm water. Run outside, do the job, run back into the house. Perfection.

    I've always found it difficult to get a good surface condition on a flat panel with a rattle can spraying horizontal. I would always default to handing the part up and paint vertical when I can, with a rattle can especially. You can also use the whole can easier that way. You got very nice results though. Impressive.

    • @MrTheHillfolk

      It helps to keep a hairdryer or heat gun nearby to heat the can and keep pressure up, it will help a little with the spitting when the can gets a little low.
      Or, when it's starting to act up grab a new can and finish the other one off later.

    To reduce orange peel heat up the paint surface of the metal blow dryer etc. Easier then heating the paint and metal holds heat well. You want your ambient room temp low and humidity free but your paint and surface your painting to be warmer to allow for viscosity to smooth the paint.

    • @firstnamelastnameisallowed7943
      @firstnamelastnameisallowed7943 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Heating the panel is a good idea it helps quit a bit. If you take the spray can and turn on your faucet to all the way hot and let it flow over it for around 2 minutes depending on outside temps shaking it few times between it actually gives it a bit more pressure and it makes the paint flow out way better and orange peel is almost gone when u doit that way. Combo with a heated panel like you said and you can get some smooth rattle can jobs!!

      Zoe Sh house painter here again, chasing a wet edge is how you prevent stop/start marks. Thini if this bonnet so you spray from left to right and stop at the halfway mark complete that side then spray right to left so from the other side of the hood to the middle. You'll get one really really Nasty line down middle of good because the edge was dry. All you gotta do is keep spraying a little over lap of your previous spray line and do not stop on anything that isn't a natural stop like the end of a panel where it joins up or the entire section cause you can reach it in an arms span. Hopefully that helps clear some stuff up its 9am Saturday morning here in NZ and I'm up with 2 kids under 2 so forgive any grammatical errors

You obviously can't do speaking with your respirator on while doing it. So as you are editing your final video, voice over a reasonable play-by-play on why you are doing certain strokes, 50-75% layover, and hitting the edges first? This will help the majority of the audience learn something. Just my $0.02.

    I feel like the tiger stripes are going to show a lot if the over spray of one pass is lightly falling on a pass that's already flashing or drying more. I've found if you can keep that "wet edge" (that's what I call it) running in one direction its way better looking then that over spray fogging or misting into an area you've already sprayed. And being at that cooler temp as you mentioned also helps the paint from flashing quicker and allowing it to settle on those areas also causing that problem. I'm by NO WAY a professional painter by any means, just something that's always seemed to work for me and maybe it'll help someone else. Nice video, btw. i found it very helpful!

      Yeah - cool temperatures and keep it all wet ,shooting the final 'money shot' coat all in one session. When it's all wet, the overspray just melts in and doesn't flash.
      The paint will be soft long after it's dry. The curing takes days to weeks , more time you can give it the better. Once it's dry, after a day, I put a space heater on low and some fans to help get the VOC's out and help the curing.

    The clear coat out of a can works also. My side plastic mirror housings where sun damaged and the paint was fading because the clear was missing. I took the mirror housings off, cleaned them, and then wet sanded them. Then I cleaned the mirror housings with paper towels and rubbing alcohol, and them dry. Then I put them on a bent up coat hanger. I gave each mirror housing three coats of black paint for plastic, and three coats of clear coat. I waited for the proper amount of dry time between coats and half the 24 hours before putting them back on and another 36 hours before getting them wet.

    Not judging at all bc looks great for what it is. Just when heard you say light coats then whole hood is covered in first coat😂. Im just use to building up coats maybe first is half or less then 2nd about 75 to 80 percent and third coat full even coverage. Sand and clear. But hey if works for you then nice but your exactly right on the temperature.

      SAMO 6IX true it’ll look dark but a light coat means light. As in you’ll see some of your primer still showing which you spray a coat lol. What he sprayed was a medium coat but either way it came out looking really good for a rattle can paint job.

      I agree. My definition of "light coat" is also very different from this guy's. Of course, I don't stop at 2 or 3 coats, either. I was always taught that the first coat gave subsequent coats "something to grab onto" along with the surface itself: it's hard for second coat to grab onto a completely covered surface.

      That's how to avoid toger striping. Keeping the wet edge. Laying it on, just to, but not quite what I call, "the run stage". If you've sprayed for years, you know what I mean. If a person has sprayed very little, it can be learned in a short time. Practice on cardboard, or on some old piece of metal is even better.

    Orange peel is typically the result of improper painting technique, and is caused by the quick evaporation of thinner, incorrect spray gun setup (e.g., low air pressure or incorrect nozzle), spraying the paint at an angle other than perpendicular, or applying excessive paint.

    Yes I agree his definition of light coat leaves a little bit to be desired. Also he doesn't explain how he stays away from Tiger striping.

    I am pretty sure you are spraying way to far, hence you getting a sand paper looking finish, paint or primer is drying before it hits the bodywork, plus always try and paint at 90 degree.

    • @JamesDguy
      @JamesDguy  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      SteadyOnThatTrigg It don’t have a sand paper feel or look. None of my spray jobs have a rough feel to them even before the wet sanding and adding more layers if I choose to do more layers. I never understand why people get that sand paper feel/look.

    • @rupe53
      @rupe53 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JamesDguy ... if you spray from too far away the paint starts to dry and the airborne vapor eventually settles on the wet paint causing the dull / dry look. This is part of what happens when you spray from one side and switch sides. Always spray in the same direction to avoid that overspray and maintain the wet edge. BTW, I usually do the second coat at 90 degrees to the first coat to help even things out. If it's flat (like a hood) then I can usually go for a third coat coat without fear of runs. Oh, there are times when I work with a fan on low speed placed maybe 10 - 20 feet away. That's just enough of a draft to keep the overspray moving and the bugs away. The other thing I do is pre-shake my cans then set them in a sunny window for an hour or two. Warm paint flows nice, doesn't blush, sets quicker, and has less orange peel. Also no worries of water drops from soaking them in hot water.

      I've sprayed my race cars with rustoleum for years. 50/50 with acetone works great, higher pressure seems to get it to atomize better and dry faster but the over spray is ridiculous, everything gets a coat of whatever color your spraying so Id suggest tarping off the area like a makeshift paint booth. I have a car that was painted 4 years ago that sits out in the elements of northern wisconsin, it still has a gloss finish never waxed or had clear coat applied so those that say it dulls quickly must have did it wrong or used spray cans
