I learned to paint and how to weld by working for free for a few months. I weld professionally now, and that experience was definitely worth the time even though I wasn't making anything.
Just a word of encouragement, make more videos. You've got some skills, you obviously research and are willing to learn and get better. Garage diyers like myself absorb grassroots content like this where the creator is really grinding, trying to progress solidly along. There's 1000's of pros with booths, mega $ tools, and I watch them as well. But seeing competent dudes like yourself using HF and doing it in his backyard gives rooks like us hope to be able to do something very well. Good luck my man, and put out more content.
This is a Real one! Dude thank you so much, not only for the body work tips but for having such a great attitude and getting me back on track painting my dodge 1500 in my driveway. The haters had me doubting myself. After seeing another like minded individual doing what the talkers say you can't do, i'm once again ready to handle it. p.s. that shot of the wincheld with the (I think its a) registration sticker on 4 - 20 was i'll AF
Appreciate this video series my friend. I'm just now considering investing in a small side business doing just this same thing. I have painted two of my cars and the experience alone is worth it to me. It's not always dollars and cents. Knowledge is priceless. I've even set it up to where I'll be spraying a few cars for free. Friends and family members but still. Great video
Great content bro! I have a 91 GMC Sierra stepside that I'm building up. I came across your video and gave me more confidence to spray my own truck. You got my sub and 👍
I’ve always wanted one of the SS454s since they came out with em but I was in the military at the time and they were out of my pay grade at the time and by time I got out and making good money, they weren’t in production anymore. Still hoping I can find one around one day but sure wish I coulda had a new one tho
This is exactly what I’m doing now I got all the body work just about done . Starting with no experience I can say I have patience to do this . After my truck is done I have my dads I want to do as well so maybe that’ll help me get my feet wet . Thanks for the video bro definitely a confidence booster for people like me wanting to start 💯
Great video and best of luck with you side hustle Funnily enough I have been ‘filling and sanding’ today on my daughters old Land Rover that is now mine! Just completed the metal work now attempting to make it look ‘pretty’. Looking forwards to your next video you got a subscriber..
Great job. I am looking at painting my truck. I think we maybe around the corner. I recognize the gas station you stopped at in the part 2 video (Dixie Farm). Like the Texas Tech sign as well...✌️👆
eveything looks good man.... 2 big things to help you in your future... as you stated ... body filler is extremly porous...you should never ...ever apply filler to bare metal.. when you washed that truck .. the water can cause corrosion on the raw metal under the filler giving you problems in the future.... also I am gonna assume you applied a 2K primer on the truck over the bare metal... another big no no.. for the best long term paint job... epoxy prime all bare metal ... you will have a much better result.... keep up the good work ... 🤘
Funny thing is that back in the 70s & 80s we all were taught to strip the area down to bare metal and then do our mud work on the bare metal. There’s still a lot of cars running around and sitting in garages today with 80s paint jobs on them that still look decent today and there’s a lot more that have been crushed, mostly due to improper or lack of care and preventative maintenance, not whether filler was done on top of bare metal or epoxy. With the progression of time tho comes the change in materials we use. Back in the day we weren’t using epoxies for anything other than topcoats which was few and far between cause the stuff was expensive (Imron, it was a polyurethane enamel I believe and it was mainly used for semi-trucks & aircraft) almost all primer was lacquer primer back then and it did the job if you used it correctly but times have changed today. I guess the point I’m making here is that even tho I agree with you completely as far as spraying the truck in a good couple coats of epoxy before you do your mud work, if there’s one or two little spots that you need to work and break thru to the metal, don’t worry about it. Do your mud work and then prime & block then top coat and chances are extremely high that the repair will still outlive the useful life of the vehicle in todays times but if your doing a complete new respray, then go ahead and sand it down first, then spray the complete body in 2-3 good, wet coats of epoxy and then proceed to do your mud work on top of the epoxy for the best longevity. Try and get your primer coat as smooth as possible tho to cause it’s a bitch to sand if you get runs or orange peel. Anyways, sorry this got long, carry on brother!!
@@1982MCI a lot has changed since then... body shop classes were teaching to repair rust with fiber glass over metal.... 🤦♂️.. we now see how that works 🤣🤣🤣 time shows that these practices are not correct...
3m says on their website it's preferred to apply direct to metal. Also, a guy on TH-cam, can't remember his channel, did an adhesion test with bare metal vs over primer/paint with bondo as well, both were great.
@JaRuuizz 3m has had tons of issues with there platinum filler... adhesion is not the issue.. it's the corrosion that forms between filler and bare metal do to how porous the filler is. There are multiple people who have proven over the years that it is not good to apply over bare metal.
Thanks for the follow bro!! Love to hear your starting the journey. You got this. One tip I would give you is to make sure you read the tds for every product you use. I made the mistake of following general steps online but every paint product has a specific tds and it shows you exactly how to use it. Tds stands for technical data sheet. You can Google this for any product. I hope this helps and good luck!!
Brother, I'm so glad I found your channel! This is the style of video I've been searching for a long time. Are you on the east coast? I have 2 old school Impalas I wanted painted
Good evening, are you taking on more jobs? If so, I've got an Evo 8 and wanting to rock "cosmic orange." Hope this message finds you well bud, take care.
What’s up bro. After I finished all of the body/filler work, I got a da sander and used 220 grit on the entire truck. That’s a good grit for high build primer.
250$ is fine to get going, the equipment is yours and you will get better and better at it. plus you can paint your own cars to flip or whatever. worthy investment
You can sand the original paint down until you get to a good layer of paint. If you have any rust, I would sand just that area down to the metal. Hope this helps!
What’s up bro! Thanks for watching. So primer is okay to shoot in the open because if you get debris in it while painting, you can sand it out. Your going to sand the entire truck after this step so it’s okay. Hope this helps and good luck!
hey man Ive been doing paint jobs like this for the neighbors and friends, etc. Im looking to create a legit side hustle with advertising. Any idea of how to market this? obviously my whole thing is that im way cheaper than a bodyshop but do about 95% as good as one. honestly with cut and buffing i can get to that 100%. just wondering how i should explain this to potential customers. thank you!
Your honesty and dedication is obvious. You are teaching others to start
from nothing. This is awesome. Proud of you
Thank you 🙏 hopefully people like to see the climb. Not everyone is a millionaire!
I would not ever apologize for making $250. Somebody thought enough of your skills to pay you to do something. I love the video.

Whenever you get on the fender above the wheel do a mit roll and it will come out flawless every time about 15 mi before you spray
Good job all things considered there’s always a learning curve just do it practice makes perfect 👍👍👍
I have had excellent results using Windex for a final prep cleaning !

Nice work ‼️🔥Chevy Gang 💪🏽👍🏾

Saw this video brother and im an subscriber now brother, keep hustling!!
Thank you 🙏
Brother, I'm so glad I found your channel! This is the style of video I've been searching for a long time. Are you on the east coast? I have 2 old school Impalas I wanted painted
Great content and great work 👍
What size compressor do you use and specs if possible?
Thanks
Thank you bro 🤙 the compressor i use is the Huskey 60 gallon from home depot
I love good doggies like yours we have four
Bro you have Skills 👍 you only going to get better. 💯
Thank you so much bro 🙏 I appreciate it!
Good evening, are you taking on more jobs? If so, I've got an Evo 8 and wanting to rock "cosmic orange." Hope this message finds you well bud, take care.
What was that tool you used to put the rod thru the body to pop out the dents ?
Where you located? Have a ton of vehicles to paint.
Pasadena tx 🤙🤙
Did you spray the solvent based cleaner on before or after using that emery cloth stuff? (Before the primer.)
Hey bro what did you sand the whole truck with ? After putting filler to the dents
What’s up bro. After I finished all of the body/filler work, I got a da sander and used 220 grit on the entire truck. That’s a good grit for high build primer.
@@nextcoat thank you bro good explanation video , one more question did you use 80 grit to get to bare metal where the dents were at ?
Yes! 80 grit is good. Make sure to keep the da sander flat. You got this 🤙
@@nextcoat thank you bro keep up the amazing content 🙌
Thank you 🙏
Love your video so helpful bro
Man, thank you bro 🤙
Hey u should look into doing paintless dent removal. Could probably save a gppd amount of.time on the job
Would it be best you lay down on floor a big tarp so that no dust kicks up when spraying? Idk just saying
How long did it take you to do this project? Or at least how long did it take you to do everything in THIS video?
(About to watch part 2!)
Hey bro how big is your air compressor i enjoy your videos it motivates me to paint my 2000 silverqdo short bed single cab
Thank you bro 🤙 my compressor is 60 gallons bro
Which mask filter do u use when spraying 2K paint?
What size compressor are you running for ur DA sander and paint guns?
250$ is fine to get going, the equipment is yours and you will get better and better at it. plus you can paint your own cars to flip or whatever. worthy investment
Also Big Props to tu Papa!
Nice man🤟🏾🤟🏾
Thank you Again bro!! 😢
What kind of compressor did you use and paint?
saw ur video bro keep it up , and where are you located bro ?
Man thank you so much bro 🤙 I’m in Pasadena tx!
Do I need to get my cab to bare metal ? Or can I sand original paint to a certain amount ? It’s a 68 c10
You can sand the original paint down until you get to a good layer of paint. If you have any rust, I would sand just that area down to the metal. Hope this helps!
Your what makes america great feller
Thank you so much for this 🙏🙏🙏
I have a 2011 chevy Silverado need repaint. How can I reach out to you?

Your welcome bro. Thanks for the support 🙏🙏
Good job bro
Where you located? If you close to me I’d want to talk bout doing my truck
In southern cal....can i get a price if youre nearby on an OBS truck?
I’m in Houston 😬
How can i purchase me one of those sanding blocks?
Online or a local paint shop!
What compressor do you use???
What compressor are you running
I prefer rage gold but damn it jumped in price lately
Everything is so expensive 😩
I was told that it’s not good to bondo over painted area because of future bonding issues?
You sand it before applying the bondo so that it can properly adhere. You don't just put bondo over unsanded paint but that's not what he did here
What type of solvent based cleaner did you put in the sprayer
I got the Roberlo cleaner!
man.. My white C1500 looks like trash. All peeling I need to do this
Where did you get the tent from that you painted the OBS ?
I got it at harbor freight!
Where do you get your paint from ?
Finish master 🤙
what compressor do you have
The truck is so dope I just bought a 🥳 1991 OBS CHEVY SHORT BED 350 Motor ‼️ HMU 🤙🏽 🤟🏽 CC WHERE DID YOU GET THE SS WHEELS ?
This isn’t my truck bro, I painted it for a guy
Your close to Houston. Paint my truck! Please
Hey man, I have a question. Why didn’t you close off your paint booth? Wouldn’t that cause dirt and debris to get in there with the wind?
You don’t have to close the booth when shooting primer. If you get dirt or debris in it, you will eventually sand it out in the next step.
What’s up bro! Thanks for watching. So primer is okay to shoot in the open because if you get debris in it while painting, you can sand it out. Your going to sand the entire truck after this step so it’s okay. Hope this helps and good luck!
Primer all over the tires
Bro you could be the younger brother of Shawn Reyes Island Audit you look just like him. Look up Long Island audit
