Wow, only light was a single garage light and head light. Next video will be you painting by moonlight only. Love your work. You got me back into painting as a hobby... best of luck to you.
Love it brother! ... from cleaning & prep work you've shown us is a good habit to have.👍🏼. doing what you love from home.keep doing what you do, you help us out more than you know.thanks again.👌🏽🔥🔥🔥
You ever sprayed boats mate? Like Gell coat and Xylene Epoxy Paints. It's hard man has loads of hazards and gets solvent entrapment etc if you don't get the thickness perfect.
This has been a very interesting series Gunny, the basecoat looked like it went on well and is very clean. I'm looking forward to your review on the compressor as I'm a Fred in a Shed DIY painter so I'm always looking for a better and quieter compressor, I've had mine nearly 3 years and again it let me down last week so I had to replace both head gaskets and all the fittings on the head as they keep leaking. Looking forward to the next instalment 👌🙏👍 John UK.
They attract insects so no. I'm in Scotland I do boats now, if I'm doing homer spray jobs mid summer on cars/motorbikes/boats what I do is spray diluted deet spray about (sold here as midgey repellent in Army surplus stores) with a water spray bottle. Turn my extractor on for 10mins, push the project back in my garage then paint. If the midgeys are really bad what I do is wet out the garage floor slightly with a deet & water mix but I watch my humidity meter like a hawk till it flashes off and stabilises then I'm good to shoot paint. Just for comparison if I never used deet in the method I just told you then even maybe a Bonnet/hood sized project I would have maybe 15-25 insects in each coat. If I'm using my airflow and inlet fans I need to use a massive oversized Rhino "green growers" scrubber can to stop pollen and midgeys getting spat at the project at 100+mph
@@bigduphusaj162 Hi and thanks for your discussion. I am not a painter so I don't really understand about the problems and that is why I just thought of the bug zapper as a cure.
@@gordonclark7632 yeah mate that's why it's good to ask 👍 lots of people don't ask they claim their way is the best because they done it once as a DIY job. If someone knows the answer due to doing it as a job or whatever, then they won't chip in unless someone asks. See another natural way to keep insects off your freshly laid paint is just pick a day where there is a breeze and do it at a time you know the insects aren't as active. BTW I seen a big Scottish Bee land on my freshly done clear then fly off, it never even left a mark.. I spent about a half hour looking for the marks and there was none🤷♂️ no idea wtf that is all about as it was huge.
Hi Gunny, Love your work. I am about to put down my base coat now in the garage. Thanks for all the great videos and information it has really helped give me the confidence to get out there and paint some shit :)
Thanks for this series, it's super helpful for those of us trying to learn about how much of this we can do at home. Would it be too much to hope for a full project car paint at some point? 🙂
Its actually spray gun cleaner in a spray can and they sell them at paint supply shops everywhere its very common but expensive to do it that way and best used when your in a pinch for time instead of for every use
That PPG Deltron is not cheap. A gallon of Superwhite for my truck is 800 us. I just picked up a Prolite as my other one was a fake ebay one. This one is the real deal like the one you have.
I have to respray my Ford Fiesta, i don't know why if i spray clear over solvent base i can see pigtails but, if i spray clear over well cured clear, it's perfect. Can someone help me?
Tack rags are overrated anyway. Last month I did 9 panels for a competing workshop where the the local (territorial) painter had hid all the tack rags claiming they had run out 🤓 I was forced to use my left hand and compressed air 🤬 After a nice little 5 minute blowing and swiping with bare hands I ended up with virtually spotless results, with mist+ 1 immediate wet coat of uhs clear mind you. With 9 panels in a single booth cycle I rarely achieve this even with a brand new tack rag 😎
I work in a two car garage everyday and paint Bentleys and Ferraris, i just keep everything as clean as possible and use premium products that helps.Welcome too my world its great fun ?
I have had alot of fun painting in my garage over the years on side jobs
Good lookin out for the garage level players. Great. Honest and real. Gunman gettin it done again.
My pro lite is turning up today, I went for the t110 cap. Got a job prepped waiting in the garage for it when it arrives.
Same here 👍🏻
@@Evox2316_ good man.
I've been using the gti Pro (lacquer and base) for about 6 or 7 years so I'm looking forward to comparing the lite to them
Painting without a booth is best to do in the morning as the bugs and wind are usually minimal.
What pressure was you running at the gun?
Thank you ❤️
Thanks for watching 👊

Thanks for doing these Gunny - very helpful for those of us doing this at home.
Gun I bought the same pro lite. The 110 was slow compared to the t20 when I painted my dads ford ranger. Take care my friend
I love the outro; ' Until next time, get out there and paint some shit'' Gunman out... haha
Thanks to that shop that you worked for that teach you how to cut and buff my friend
I was out there tonight polishing
Thanks for your content mate.
hey gunny I did actually see when that bug landed on the car but the base went down pretty well can't wait to see the final finish cheers
I wonder if putting up one of those ultra violet bug zappers to help control a 'crash' landing?

I have been waiting for this video I’m about to paint my Gq Ute today thanks gunman

Nice video Gunny 👍👍i like and enjoy it too 👌🏻
That’s a dope paint suit I might just buy one
Thanks for this series, it's super helpful for those of us trying to learn about how much of this we can do at home. Would it be too much to hope for a full project car paint at some point? 🙂
I have one on the cards
@@TheGunmanChannel Superb. Look forward to that.
Why r u using the 110 cap with the 1.3
Because it's a good combination 😉
How did the extraction fan work, did it clear the overspray well
The real test is when he sprays clear coat. When I spray base it is not as bad as clear coat
Nice one Gunny.
What hp compressor do you use as I’ve been told I need a 6hp which is huge and very expensive could I get away with a 3hp
Yeah, I'm going to be uploading a review on mine soon. It's awesome 3X 1.1hp silent motors.
Hey gunny, what gloves do you use? Most the retail disposable gloves seem to disintegrate in thinners.
spraygunsdirect.co.uk/product/colad-disposable-nitrile-gloves/
Yeah! Something for us DIY guys.
Love this video
What are you spraying before wiping it down with the tack rag?
It's just a wax and grease remover. You can also use alcohol or methylated spirits or anything that dries without leaving a residue
Hello, gunny what do you use to clean your spray gun?
Its actually spray gun cleaner in a spray can and they sell them at paint supply shops everywhere its very common but expensive to do it that way and best used when your in a pinch for time instead of for every use
Does wetting the floor help in preventing dust on paint?
Yes it does but can cause high humidity.
Hey gunny, what's your ratio of thinners to base?
1:1
Nice job!👍💪🏆🍀

Love to watched this
That's the exact gun I bought! Came with 3 tips and 2 aircaps. Only been able to use it one time but seems really good!
Yes me too. Just picked it up from my friend. He used it one time.
