Blending Old & New Lacquer Paint For A Perfectly Sh*tty Paint Job!!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- The 1932 Ford Roadster is practically road ready, but there are a few things left on the punch list. The one major item left is the paint on the areas that needed rust repair, and the passenger door. The car is painted with old lacquer paint and any new paint will require some work to help match whats existing. Matt and Steve get to work painting the interior first with some Eastwood Rust Encapsulator on all of the new floor panels. After some careful masking, Matt gets to work spraying some primer, and then some black lacquer. Once the paint has cured, Matt gets to work aging the new paint to blend with the old!! We think the results are amazing, let us know what you think in the comments below!!

Congratulations , a great save ! Not going for a showroom floor finish was the way to go !
I would love to see a car get complete repaint with the goal of looking like someone who completed a black lacquer repaint. Not a Roadster Show winner, just a few teenagers spriaying their hot rod for the first time back in the day. I understand what you're doing to this car. The reason I ask is I have a Model A body with ancient green paint.
Hey Matt, I really appreciate the respect you've shown for the people who built this '32 roadster back in the day. Thanks for bringing it back to life! In the end, we're really only caretakers of these old cars. Down the road, someone else will likely own the roadster. Here's hoping that future owner will respect the car, those who built it, and those who saved it from the crusher and preserved it.
Thank you Bob!
Results were successful Matt the Patina matches perfectly but, I got to admit is was heart wrenching to watch. LOL !!
I would love to see one of the 32's done in a nice period correct paint job! Great work Matt
It's a 32 roadster. Anything said after that is superfluous. It looks great no matter what you do. All the best, Mart from England.
Best comment!
Pppppppp
It just keeps getting better.
Car looks great. Glad there is no snow so you can enjoy it alittle
Since everything else is so era perfect, I would love to see a Era-perfect “Black and decker” home drive way respray.
Because this is really coming along well.
And I love ever part of it!
Great car. Kind of the Holy Grail for me ( Baskerville and all that). I can’t believe how solid the driver’s door sounds.
Another great episode. Great job. Loving the car.
Driveway dirt abrasive. Very clever.😊
First off you're doing what my dad would have been doing decades ago. A 32 Ford with the original Hot rod look. That car is closing in 100 years old. It's great to see somebody that is this into them. You're trying something new with the paint. Back in the day I think it's safe to say they didn't have TH-cam and Google or about your fancy tools. Hey you are replicating what could have been if it had been stored a little nicer as you said. It boggles my mind that these cars are still out there and more so guys like yourself you are still working with them. Shiny and pretty is great. But what is great is a 32 Ford roadster that you can drive down the road and if it gets a rockchip it's an improvement because that new paint just blended in that much better! To sum it up in a simple term. How cool is that!
Thanks for watching!
You did a great job. 👍
Jonathan Stone from Henderson Nevada great job. I to own that some day
A lot of older cars have mismatched panels as time passes due to repairs done years ago. I think it looks fine. Maybe a little flattening agent in the mix would get you closer to the faded original paint? Either way it looks great.
Nothing like lacquer. I pulled my '28 out of a barn where it sat under hay and poop for almost 60 years. Wash with Dawn, hand rub it with compound, buffed it out with glaze. All except 1 spot in the rear quarter, you can literally shave in the reflection in the gloss. Mirror finish 🤙
That’s awesome!
Crappy Shitty Paint job actually makes car look great. Nice video.
Love the durt idea 💡 on the damp paint.
What a beautiful car!!!!!!!!!!!
That's got a little sophistication going on there. Maybe some wire wheels??? I'm looking forward to seeing what it looks like with the top on.
Can’t wait for the latest wire wheel fad to pass…40 Ford wheels for the win!
We took wire wheels off. It’s now wearing the same wheels as it had in the 50’s
A fantastic job Matt, iron trap garage custom painting secrets, I can see a new book coming out??
I particularly liked the bucket of stones and rag shake technique, AWESOME!!🚀
Ive had great results lettimg the lacquer actually dry (5-7 days) then wet sanding the two together old and new. It blends well then buff it and if you want "sh1tty" dont wax it, a few months of sunny driving and it all naturally hazes together and gets a great natural look. Lacquer is high attention required paint (lots of rubbing) so it doesnt take long without wax for it to haze
I put a ceramic sealer/wax on it to avoid immediate hazing.
@@IronTrapGarage i hear ya but if you buff it then let it all haze on purpose then buffed it back down together it really blends well. Turned out nice from what i can see though. Awesome car
Good morning glad to see im not the only idiot trying to match shitty paint today
good job mat
Nice job looks great So glad your bringing these cars back to life
Looking awesome 👍💯 Thanks for sharing Matt
Looks great, from where I'm sitting. Nice job on the paint aging; as you said, perfection is not the object
of the exercise.
Maybe linseed oil now on everything? Might help it all blend. I do it to my A-V8 every year.
Perfecto-primo...Does the job. Thanks for sharing.
Matt you sure could use a paint booth so the paint wouldn't settle on the other cars in the shop ! Maybe that could be a project later on !
I'm sure there's a shitty paint booth somewhere for shitty paint jobs. Enjoy
All the cars in the shop now are project cars it doesn’t much matter about or are covered. But yep someday would love a dedicated booth. One thing at a time.
It’s very difficult to paint when the body is cold . You have to put on light coats especially the first one. That will reduce runs and sags 😂😂 when you blend paint always mask further away from the blend and lift the edge of the tape to eliminate hard lines 😎👍
Looks great! That is an awesome car! She's a keeper Matt!
Ok Matt I know its none of my Business but what is that car under the tarp by the Garage door.
Free-T. Been doing some changes to it in between videos.
@@IronTrapGarage Awesome can't wait to see what your cooking up for it.
Hi from Australia
Great save on the roadster. I love that car !!
I've always kinda liked fenderless cars more then fendered, but this thing is just way to cool! By far my fav! Great job ITG!
It looks much better. This is my favorite car in your fleet! I was hoping you would paint the rust spot at the bottom of the driver`s fender though.
I would at lease touch up the fenders to match just a thought.
Looks great.
Looks Awesome Matt Nice job
Good morning from Southern Butler County, Pa. I hope that you have a great day today.
Great job! I think you've done the old car proud!
Looks great and it certainly has come a long way!!
What a great transformation looks awesome !!
How about a boiled linseed oil top coat to even out the sheen??
Or I bet you could do some cool old school hand lettering on the doors and it would point the focus on something cool… pinstripe it???
Full fenders just work for me. Nicely done.
Wow! Looks great! I was pretty doubtful re the shitified paint, but it's sure coming along. Can't wait to see the hood on her, and the top!! Sure the upholstery is gonna look epic! DeLorean would be super psyched, I'm sure!
Scotch bright and flat sealer after !!!
looks real good from my house! certainly an improvement but why not do the driver fender?
You must leave some really, really crappy places including rusted out places, to get the crappiest award! :)
Awesome score to begin with and now the Roadster really lookin' the way it should.
Definitely going to be one sweet ride when done.
We all love that car "Great job" and thanks for keeping with the servivor look! And it dosn't look like all the fake patina cars. That has to be your best find so far.
Thanks Lee!
Looks very cool.
This car's story would make a great montage adding what you know of it's history and a slow progression from the old tire shop on the lift to today.....
Just sayin'.... Great job!
We will be doing a wrap up time lapse video when the project is done!
Looking good Matt, bonus is two new words to my vocab....."shitify" and "shitification." Excellent!
That car deserves to be painted like jack had it
This is how Jack had it.. just aged a little bit. Wasn’t perfect in the photos we have when he had it..
Ha. I love shiny paint. But. To do THAT .. everything has to come UP. Which at times, destroys all of the fun of something cool. The wallet !!! Even making a '32 Ford "perfectly sh*tty" isn't at all cheap. Let's face it. Part of the beauty here, is doing a great job to match up an old beater roadster .. to enjoy life .. HERE IN THE NOW. Nothing more FUN than THAT.
Matt it looks great !
and you used PPE !!!!!!
Very nice
Morning Matt, glad you made this video, we plan on doing the same thing to our 30 A Coupe...I think the black paint is a little bit better on our car..Matt, can you tell us the brand of lacquer paint you used? Thank you for your videos Matt, you know that I have used a good portion of your ideas..
“Restoration Shop” Jet Black lacquer. Sprayed nicely. I got their medium temp thinner/reducer.
@@IronTrapGarage thank you Matt!!
You know what they say. Perfect is the enemy of good. Or in this case, good enough! It looks great to me.
So you don't like nice painted hot rods. 😒 well to each his own . Cool 32
I kinda get what Matt is doing but after watching the video, I just had to go out to the garage and give my shiny black, steel '32 roadster a hug. I guess it's the way I've always been, a paint and body man since I left school in the mid 60's, right up to retirement age.
To each his own.
I have painted shiny cars too… you guys don’t understand the “survivor “ car thing and that’s ok.
it ain't a survivor if you repair rust, put new panels/floors, etc and blend paint and all the rest... it is just a half-assed restored car
4:23 - I learned that same trick from my Drafting Teacher back in HS. "A little lint from your clothing makes lifting the tape back off much easier."
Yep my buddy Mike that painted the Free-T taught me that !
Dirt buffing. Hum, that's a new one.
One trick I use to dull paint is rubbing with aluminum oxide.
Beautiful 32..
well done guys! 💪
Matt, when building floors, what do you consider when choosing between steel pans to wooden. 1929 A. Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I love it. You keep inspiring me to new depths.
While I mostly work on muscle cars on my channel, your your channel has probably been one of the most influential on mine bar none.
Keep up the great work!!! Everything you do inspires me to think differently about what I do.
Thank you so much!
Awesome as always. I love you trying to maintain history and not sandblast and paint everything. Old paint is great !!!! Patina Rules !!!!!! That car is so bad ass 👌
Thanks for watching Jesse!
That 32 is John DeLorean cool.
Nice antiquing on the touch-up. It has to be difficult to match new paint with 91 year old aged paint.
good job man 💪
Great video and awesome deuce
Sand a whole car down with thousand grit then spray a light coat of Rust-Oleum black lacquer in a can it would look nice that way that's my two cents .
It would look like you painted over a worn, flaking paint job. I want it to look old not like I was trying to do a maaco special for my used car lot.
Good work. Tried to order some Rust Encapsulator this evening, order form @ Eastwood says out of stock till April. Looks like I'll wait. Awesome before and after shot at the end. Sweet.
Looking good 👍
Matt, you really have mastered the art of shytifing 😂😂😂. Great video to watch 👍 car looks awesome
Matt, ya got some loser A hole trying to scam people in comments section
Hey Matt, you can see the red through the black, not being a wise guy but look at your vido...youhave dne a fabulous job on that roadster
Perfectly Shitty! This is your car there are many like it but this one is yours as long as it looks good to you no one should be disappointed!
Don’t tape paper down along edges that need fogging…so overspray can sneak under the loose paper, to blend it better.
I used foam tape that allows the the paint to roll underneath and the untaped for the last coat to let it even further get underneath.
Love it. Any news on the car at the Gilmore?
Honestly yous did a great job on that car but to me it really deserves a nice paint job on it
Matt sir you did a better job with the paint than I would've ! I for some reason get runs in my paint ! But thankfully all of my paint is hidden around my house ! 😆 🤣 😂 oh well part of my house was built in 1890 so I only live here anyways ! When I die whoever gets it will probably tear it down sadly !
Pooparific job Matt! Looking good? Well beauty is in the eye of... Can't wait for the unfinished looking Roadster.
"Shitty sheen" is definitely a thing. Have you ever heard the story about Shinola?
Looks awesome Matt !!!
Matt using wide tape . Tape the bottom edge then roll tape back on itself this will give you a soft edge to blend 8:49
I used round foam tape for the edges that do the same. I also pulled the tape back and allowed paint to dust in. Problem is the old paint was so dead it wouldn’t match up. I’m sure my skill isn’t up to par either. But I did attempt to allow the paint to have a soft edge with the foam tape made for doing just that
Nice job as always. Curious did the Columbia shift for you during your test drive?
We didn’t take it up to highway speeds to test it on the road.
Sure looking forward to that!
Matt I know you're the money man but I would like to see Steve, one time, drive a car on it's maiden start up and drive down the road.
Yes you must pay him, but it appears he does a lot. Give him his 15 minutes of fame.
Sorry but one of the best feelings in the planet is to drive a survivor for the first drive. I do so much work and spend so much money it’s one of the few perks of being the “boss” especially this car.
Perfectly perfect love it iron trap. How much$
This isn’t a for sale ad.
Looks good, maybe try spraying satin black, might be easier to make look shitty😳
Matt, next time add a couple drops of white paint to the black and blend about six inches into the quarter.
Where do you get lacquer paint
Looking good!
Anyone could scuff and paint a car to make it look shiny again, but you lose so much of the car's patina and character in the process. It takes a trained eye and a unique set of skills to achieve a "Perfectly Sh*tty" appearance. Not overly restored, but not looking too shabby either. Nicely done, Matt!
Hey Matt,
The shitification seems to be working.
At least as seen on the video.
That Red you applied first looks really bright.
I wonder if a Red oxide primer would work in place of the bright red.
Anyway, looking good.
Work Safe, Be Well
Stay Warm
1950’s red oxide primer wasn’t freaking bright ORANGE. Was actually more brownish.
The is “red oxide” primer as ordered from Kirker. Only red oxide lacquer primer I could find.
Nothing like masking of a car for a paint job
Maybe a light coat of flat clear over the new black would tone the sheen down?
I dont know if your tryinng to save work or time. But the work you put in blending could just be put into spraying the whole car with new black laqure and letting time and the sun tone down the shine. Its counter intuitive. But like you said at least the bare metal is painted now. I couldnt stand the pressure of worring and fuss about aging I would just paint the whole thing to save the constant labor of aging of new paint. Just let it age it self. It will go shitty on its own very quickly. Going shitty has never been a problem for me. Just how I see it. It would be easier to spray the whole thing then let go shitty on its own it would happen soon enough. Spray it all then use some fine steel wool on the whole thing to knock off the shine.
Obviously you don't understand the meaning of a "survivor"
@@terry3665 i think you dont...and from the bitter comments maybe matt doesnt either, a survivor is as it has SURVIVED. it can have extremely minor things done but metal work and fake patina is not a survivor. Dont everyone get yer panties in a bunch, i think the car looks neat and i do get what matts doing. I just wish he could do it from a less defensive and bitter place. He gets that way on the hamb as well and honestly ya cant please everyone! So why try
