I'm wondering if the orange paint color was purposely chosen to compliment the expected 'orange peel'. If so, this was a genius move in presenting this quick paint job technique!
Not trying to win a car show just make it decent on a budget see same comment in every video like this but it works you must be a auto body guy with a nice wet sand and 2x clear and a little harder these paint jobs can be just a good you can get orange peel shooting it also
@@brooklyn7392 If all you want to do is cover it with paint, the Civic was already there. What these guys did accomplished their goal but if the paint was thinned and sanded between coats, it would look amazing.
I did this on a 03 Crown Vic with peeling paint, I used a foam brush, did 3 coats (make sure you have a 4 day weekend, takes about 18 hours to dry properly) after that I wet sanded it with 800 grit then 1000 grit sand paper to cut down on the orange peel, then a spray on gloss coat followed by a buff and wax. Turned out very well
Add hardener dry faster you can use the same catalyst or hardener the pros use would have saved you a lot of time also a little acetone to thin it just a little not much though or you will get runs
This how they did it in the old days before spray equipment. Rolled and sanded using oil based paints up to 7-8 times for the high end cars! You get a much more solid paint job than the modern way, but it's many hours of labour. Once finished properly it will be very smooth with no orange peel etc.
@@G_STYLINThe paints were activated with a catalyst and not left to air dry; single stage paints used a chemical reaction in order to harden almost immediately into a very durable shell-like enamel.
Yep, this is what they did before spray painting booths and you can get a really good finish. But it will take ages. You need to apply quite a few coats, sanding each one then finally polish it, lacquer then sand and polish again. That will give an amazing paint job with no orange peel or anything. It will also be much tougher than a normal spray job especially if you use an oil based paint.
Don’t threat them. Keep it up guys. I have an old Honda CRV I’m looking to paint by myself. It’s not worth a $2,000 paint job. . I might just take a crack at it.
The paint job looked good considering it was rolled on. This concept is great for making a vehicle look presentable again on a very low budget. Your video would have been much better if you cut the garbage music and just spoke to us about the process, and tips on the best techniques.
I think the car looks great, I noticed the Scotch bright pad was the one designed for automotive paint prep. That's just FYI for the negative comments. The pads can be purchased at most parts houses and they won't shed like the green kitchen grade will. I like your tire shop too, It's clean.
Mark Davis the finish is horrible, will most likely chip off after time, the trim pieces are painted. This is a hack job, I've done better with spray cans
@LoversPosse Absolutely. It's holding up Big time. Rustoleum Farm 🚜 and Implement Paint worked 💪 great and I sanded but didn't even prime the bare metal. Didn't clear coat because that's the first thing that fails on a paint job
this is what people dont understand... this isnt paintjob for anything above 1k worth of car its for piece of junk thats rusted out and has 5 different color panels on it.
I like this process,a lot cleaner than using spray,however it can be better after a good sanding to get rid of the Orange peel,ive seen it done with Rustoleum paint and it turns out great.
Straight away beautiful job well done. Kindly tell me what and what you added to the paint to make it glossy, or I should just go ahead and use my glossy paint ? Should I add any wax content, am planning to paint my bought - car this week... then what is the roller size ? THANK YOU !
Lots of haters in here, fun project, but I agree that the stock, glossy white was probably way better and durable than that 'orange peel'. I suspect there will be nicks and peels and white reveals all over by the weekend. Monochromatic effect and white wheels was cool, but not road worthy. I'd have been okay with a completely paint wasted beater, that didn't look too bad, initially.
As I watched other videos on how to paint a car DIY. You need to sand paper it then put primer sand paper it then put base coat then sand paper it then last clear coat. Please correct me If I am wrong.
This is an oil-based paint that doesn't require a primer, also known as top coat. What they did wrong was not putting another thin layer of coat, and before that, they had to wet sand the first thick coat. An oil-based paint doesn't require clear coat. The paint job could be to heavy for three coats of paint, and could start too crack within a few months. Even if they did all that right, this type of job doesn't last more than a year on the car as it starts to crack, and on the sun especially.
Too bad you guys never heard of " roll & tip ". If you follow up behind the roller with a fine bristle paint brush it eliminates all those tiny air bubbles... it's an old yacht painting trick. Lots of YT videos here on the process.
Same, I spray-painted my truck black after sanding each fender down individually. Took quite a bit of time, wish I saw this first, I would have tried it.
Thin the paint and roller in ONE direction, overlap by 50%, and use a VERY light tough (weight of the roller ONLY). Finally, go SLOW MAX 1" / second. Four coats, then finish with 800, then 1500 grit, buff with cutting paste. Cant tell it wasnt sprayed.
Brilliant job on a budget. There will always be those people who'll say that it's garbage. They are what they are. However, opinions vary, and considering the cost and the ability to do the work yourself then it's definitely job well done.
Hi, I have a 1999 Nissan Lec PS and needs the whole body to paint with color maroon. Please help me what to do step by step, the materials. I don't want it to paint with rattle can but with roller brush only. Because we are renting a row townhouses, the neighbors might smell the evaporation of the rattle can and might get angry at us. Thank you for your help. Roland
I guess the lousy music was more important for us to hear than what was being said. You get what you pay for. Thanks for the free video! I rolled my Maui Cruiser when I was 18. If you do it rite people can't tell. It looks like a matt finish. This car looked presentable for sure, just make sure you have 100% coverage.
I am not a professional, like most people commenting, but I believe the best use for this type of paint job would be a worse looking vehicle, like a early 90s Ford Ranger with different colored body panels that was purchased by a 16 year old for $500, and a different color new paint, like white.
Just spend the next 2 weeks color sanding it! And then reapply after 3 months as its gonna fade. I've seen really good results if you thin the paint like 90% and paint about 10 coats and color sand the thick paint. If you got a garage, it may last a few years.
hint: take a wide (damp/dry) soft brush - and long stroke over the rolled wet layer. and /also : multiple coats. Most of the work is already done w the masking and sanding!
I had an old Dodge pickup that was still on the road at 26 years. I used heavy equipment (bulldozers etc.) self priming paint, and rolled on a coat every spring. It was a good finish, it would have been better if I thinned it, but I went with one coat of full strength paint because I wanted to save time and get good coverage fast. I know guys that roll and tip their boats when painting and they get a great finish.
Haters gonna hate. Ignore the negativity. I like how it turned out. I'm trying to freshen up my car, too. Doesn't have to be perfect. Just better than the holes in the paint from tree wax dripping onto it.
question: i have an all black 98 chevy. i been doing a lot of research on roll painting a car with rustoleum or duplicolor. I honestly don't want to sand down the truck, so is it possible not to sand my truck down because im wanting to give a glossy look
This is why Japanese car enthusiasts have a reputation for doing crap work lol. You painted over the rust hole in the quarter lol. Damn guys at least do a cheap job right.
What's up with all these stupid comments? Come on guys, you got a 1999 Honda worth mo more than $2000, you sure don't want a $5k paint job on it. You can take it to Maaco and pay $300 - $500 for paint job which is not better than painting a car with tampons. So yea why not do it yourself for $50. Great job.
I would've not mask that car , Use the scuff pad and use a hose, some ajax cleaning power and wet scuff it...It would've wash and sand down at the same time lol
To be fair, I've seen more expensive paint jobs come out worse. This might be how i do my new beater build.. i wonder if adding a filler primer, plus clear would help. 🤔 but I'll probably just do as you did lol.
Did a pretty good job honestly. I would have liked to see a better colour chosen. Y'all should have also tried harder in not painting over the trims and logo. Overall great video! How has the paint held up?
You know what? when you don't have much money this a great way to do it. Anybody who is looking down on it, tough, but I don't like wasting money at all.
Dude you had me, I thought this was legit right up until the end..... You guys you got me. Protip, always read the comments before watching, you guys wasted 7min 22 seconds of my time, but the editing was decent enough.
Use oil paint with a conditioner in it to make it relax flat. Way to much orange peel. It takes as much time to do a job wrong as it has to do it right. Good video From Sacramento

Man I hope nobody spent any money at a studio making that terrible music . It's the worst I've ever heard by a long shot
I think the music ( especially the first track ) is just as hooptie as rolling bright orange paint on a Civic😂
But who could resist free hummus? :p
@@germanbini FREE HUMMUS LMAO
I couldn’t finish watching. I hate silent movies and had to mute this.
Ohh Man that's Too Funny😂
When I saw the title I was really skeptical! But when I waited and saw the finish at the end... My skepticism was correct.
Did you paint your car yet?
@@inzane3229 actually, yes.
@@rwtfallenjf25132 is there some way i can contact you? I really really want to do this us really skeptical myself...
@@inzane3229 my original comment was sarcasm. Do not paint your car with a roller. Use a pneumatic spray gun.

No
@@jdamqueen he's right! That's why pain jobs were far more superior back then in durability
Why using oil paint rather than water?

Dude literally drags the tape and sheets through the wet paint xD

You can get it better by wet Sanding and polish it after

LMFAO
Thanks, I learned how to sand paint. And paint flames on my doors with hummus.
Such an underrated comment 😂
Interesting. But why not fix that rust spot (7:05) on the driver's side rear quarter panel before painting?
I think its just to show how you can polish a turd and sometimes that's all you want
That music was bad and overwhelming.
They glued on orange peals as paint
Randizle Peregoy that paint jobs give a new meaning to orange peeling
Wow the car came out nice , you can change the color every year .
Don’t threat them. Keep it up guys. I have an old Honda CRV I’m looking to paint by myself. It’s not worth a $2,000 paint job. . I might just take a crack at it.

Mark Davis awesome!! thank u for the feedback!
Mark Davis the finish is horrible, will most likely chip off after time, the trim pieces are painted. This is a hack job, I've done better with spray cans
I used Rust-oleum implement paint because it’s great for hoods since it can handle 200 degrees, a 4 inch foam roller kept orange peel down
holding up good? thinking of painting my van, any tips + products
@LoversPosse Absolutely. It's holding up Big time. Rustoleum Farm 🚜 and Implement Paint worked 💪 great and I sanded but didn't even prime the bare metal. Didn't clear coat because that's the first thing that fails on a paint job
@ thank you!
What about clearing it to protect the paint!? You guys def gave me an idea to try out!
This car ain't worth spray paint so rolling it was a great bet
Thats why I'm here. Spray paint would be worth more than my car.
@@tommyslavic898 Same lmao. Paid £400 for my car that doesnt even have clearcoat. An orangepeely paint job's better than rust
Yeah this paint looks easy to remove.
this is what people dont understand... this isnt paintjob for anything above 1k worth of car its for piece of junk thats rusted out and has 5 different color panels on it.
I just want my truck one color. I'm just going to beat the hell out of it anyways. I'm using oil based tractor and implement enamel.
The Oregon peel is spot on guys 👌🏻
yall should show how to wallpaper a car
Yes! Maybe that flock Indian restaurant look.

Kindly tell me what and what you added to the paint to make it glossy, or I should just go ahead and use my glossy paint ?
Should I add any wax content, am planning to paint my bought - car this week... then what is the roller size ?
THANK YOU !
you can apply atleast 4 coats then sand it down to look like it has been spray painted then do the clear coat
I did this. For what I spent I'm extremely happy with it
Yes it's possible to do a fairly good job on an old vehicle Andy Weesman.
But didn't happen in this case...
Schöne Arbeit, Tolle Farbe, nur den Rost am linken hinteren Kotflügel hätta man vorher schpachteln und schleifen sollen ??
This video is currently being studied by all the top scientists. Your techniques swill help humanity for years to come.

Hahahaha
A little over 7 minutes I will never be able to get back :(

Same, I spray-painted my truck black after sanding each fender down individually. Took quite a bit of time, wish I saw this first, I would have tried it.
i have used rollers for years to paint my older trucks always looks good .
You guys did an awesome and creative job! (no sarcasm)
Great job man! Some curtains and a couple of pictures and it's ready for open house! Well open car! Walmart has a great deal on mini blinds. 😉
This video would've been amazing if they sanded to a near flat finish and then polished out the sanding marks. Would've been an incredible finish.
Prep + paint = A1 job
Paint job is bad ass!!!!!! Is that oil based? Gloss?
Thin the paint and roller in ONE direction, overlap by 50%, and use a VERY light tough (weight of the roller ONLY). Finally, go SLOW MAX 1" / second. Four coats, then finish with 800, then 1500 grit, buff with cutting paste. Cant tell it wasnt sprayed.
The orange peel effect is pretty big. Did you heat the the metal before or after?
I see more dislikes than likes what their to not like about the paint job they did an amazingly great job smh haters these days
I'm amazed a roller did that. Not to shabby.
It's cause the music

At least if it turns out awful you can just gun it to 88 and travel back in time to undo it.
Can you please tell the Name of the Color or paint?
Is it a normal paint or just special for car?
is that a automotive laquer?
So you end up with a cab?
No sanding after? No clear? No buffing?

Use oil paint with a conditioner in it to make it relax flat. Way to much orange peel. It takes as much time to do a job wrong as it has to do it right. Good video From Sacramento
i thought multiple coats - and top clear coat- and perhaps dry brushing - to smooth out..
How wrong would be to wet-sand the paint with an equivalent grade sandpaper?
This is perfect when you live in your car.
That sponge is not taking off the clearcoat, it is just makes it matt by scratching. Which is still ok prep for roller or brush painting
What the name of the pads you bought
U can wet sand with 1500 then a polish will make it look sprayed and perfect
Make sure to cut the music when trying to explain something and give a closer look to see the final work
Where did you get the pain at?
This might be good for when there is an BOLO for a grey 99 honda civic......otherwise I'd pass
