Don’t worry about repetitive videos those of us trying to learn soak it all in and pick up something new from each video!
Yeah I have had many comments like that. I guess I forget people are still learning
That refresh was SO satisfying and therapeutic for me
Awesome video! I like it when someone takes the time to explain how to do things! Looks like you take pride in your work and it shows!
Always glad when people find utility in my vids
Good info! Would love to see a Evo x valve cover in the near future on how you remove baffles and how you put them back on and go through the whole coating process.
Drill out the rivers then tap the holes and put screws in
For anyone who reads the comments 2040 black diamond coal slag from tractor supply is what I use it works great and is only 9$ for 50lbs. Great video man!
Seems pretty well available. More expensive than green diamond and I'm told it's dusty but seems to be a good option for those with limited access
Seeing it go from 999 to 1k was satisfying
Hahaa right?
AGREED
Congratulations that is a big milestone. It takes dedication to make it ti 1k subs esp when running a business and trying to upload videos. Keep up the great videos
Thanks I appreciate it! Gonna keep pushing em out!
@@UnknownCoatings What do you charge for valve covers?
@@RTPCustoms they start at 100 and go up from there
Just Fantastic Learning lots of new thinks just Watching how you doing things congratulations 1.02k 🇬🇧👍
Thanks. Glad you guys are finding these videos helpful!
YEEEEES! Well done my friend! Keep'm comin!
Always
Love the labels on your old powder gun, lol
Just a lil shout out to a bunch of failed powder coaters in a group :)
Now I love it lol
Awesome work
Congratulations brother!!
Thanks man!
Hello from MontreaI, I would like to thank you for your tips.....I've coated my FIRST WHEEL today. Even if I have done few hundred parts in the last 2 years. Never did aluminum wheels before, Damn I was nervous, even more than a first sexual encounter. Man I'm proud, made them in mirror High Gloss Phantom White.
Nice! Congrats!
So I did my first video and put your page in the description but it’s not blue color and you can’t click on it to bring the person to your page. What am I doing wrong?
Well done 1.02K subscribers fantastic color, in your next upload could you show how them powder coating bottles work are they under pressure or do they have a venturi tube ?.
I will try to include that in one of the upcoming vids for sure!
Did you outgas the valve cover before spraying? Faraday area coverage was great!
Always outgas!
Can you powder coat steel valve covers & wheels? How about cast iron engine parts? Will it work on aluminum covers with epoxy filler or silver solder? Thank you for showing us newbies how to do a pro job.
I did my whole procharger system took the procharger apart and did the whole kit illusion cherry I think it’s called and I had to add another item to it’s called clear vision. It’s a metallic colour hoping it turns out bomb it’s high gloss so
yeah all illusion colors require a clear, its called a dormant candy
I'm assuming the cover is aluminum or some metal that cannot be magnetized? Are you hot flocking it and if so at what temp do you recommend so that there is not alot of powder build up and therforedoes not run when heated in the oven? Thx. Another great video.
Yes these covers are aluminum. And I don't hot flock
I am a big fan
If you can't get green diamond. Black diamond fine coal slag from tractor supply. $10 for a 50lb bag and works great on aluminum
heard its INCREDIBLY dusty though
@@UnknownCoatings definitely is lol. But cheap and reusable. Well at least i reuse it in my garage on rusty parts then i get rid of it
Sorry if you've answered this before..but what did you use in the beginning to sand the edges? Thanks in advance man
just a DA sander. 80 grit.
Very Nice! Why dont you use a primer?
primer for powder isnt the same use as for paint.
What grit do you use with your DA? Looked effortless
80 grit
Well done on the subscribers! What model of system are you using
Hs02. But to be fair from everything I have seen, my system is a bit of a freak. More details in episode 23 as well
Unknown Coatings oh i see ill go have a look at that thanks
Hello,what kind of masking tape do you use there?
Amber high temp tape
What grit do you use to take care of the cast marks and make it smooth enough for powder?
I use 80 grit discs
Unknown Coatings as always thanks
Unknown Coatings as always thanks
I like your style. Where are you located?
Oops just checked the details. I’m in Wisconsin looking to get some wheels done.
yeah im in utah! Thanks for the kind words!
No commercials as of now but that usually changes when you “monetize” your videos. I think you have to set up an account with ad share or whatever it’s called to get paid. And it doesn’t matter how many times you do the same part, It’s good to see everything a few times cause every part/color is different.
Yeah they had me setup for monetizing but I dunno how it works. Not super worried about it
"20 year old gun" - internet HAHAHAHAHAHAH GETS ME EVERY EPISODE
hey i am did my first parts for someone and i was origionally going to use a primes cause it sticks better and is stronger but this was my seconed time using it and cant get a color to stick over it i am using a eastwood gun and i know my ground is good and i am using the low volt selection for it and still cant figure it out do you have any ideas
The east wood gun is not strong enough and ur not suppose to let it cure all the way that will give u problems as well
Primer isn't needed in the powder world. Not for general application
Only time I use it is to fill small pinholes and it can be sanded easily but most of the time never use it as well
I was only using it because this was going on a motorcycle gas cap and would like the durability
@@evaneyeball7953 gonna be totally honest with u it doesnt make a huge difference at all if u have a good coat that's fully sealed it will last a lifetime
yup there are commericals
What grit used for the DA sander?
80
Where do you get your powder from
Prismatic, APP, IFS,
YES...You have adds wail your video is playing.
i know they do now lol.
How does the illusion KNOW what to do?!?!
Telepathy
What is your gun model
Hypersmooth 02
Unknown Coatings I’m having issues with my PCS-1000. It keeps spitting up chunks and I need to shack the hopper every now and then because the powder slows down. How do you like yours? Do u regrets the buy or have any issues with it like I’m having? How easy is it to operate?
Unknown Coatings how do you like the hyper smooth 02? Would you suggest it? So you have an issue with it shooting clumps? Do you have any issues with it not staying at the stream u are shooting at and have to shake the hopper or line to get it to come out? I’m seriously thinking about turning my PCS back in and grabbing one like yours. How do u feel about yours? Any issues u deal with?
What’s the color name
I also have a small coating business i run from home HuskeyKustomCoatings.com and your videos have been a big help since i've only been doing this for a couple of years part time and have recently started full time since i was layed of my job due to Covid19. Thanks
Nice glad to hear it!
I like the repetitive , doesn't bother me
Good to hear!
You still get payed on monetized videos if the viewer has premium
Well I'm just saying I don't know if my vids already had ad's on them as just being part of TH-cam.
Unknown Coatings I haven’t seen any yet but will in a few days when you get everything figured out!!!
