Ik your just learning man but for future reference you shouldn't make heavy passes on the first coat...dust it on let it flash dry for about 5-10 minutes depending on the mix ratio and then cone back and lay that heavy coat 👌🏼
Thanks for the tips! sorry for late response, ill be doing another video soon painting my camaro ill try dust passes bro! :D
If you lay a metallic or pearl ex colorshift it will give it a slightly different look after the clear. Nothing wrong with they way he did it. Try it next time on a couple pieces of plastic on the side just lightly dust or fog coat one and lay one wet and then put clear over both then take a look at them in some light you will see the difference.
Wow dude you seem like the rookie here it all depends on temp humidity and cure time you seem to know it all yet very little. Keep on chin wiggling ya chirper!
Who else came into the comments to see how many trolls and know it alls put their opinions in ? 😅. For what it is bud you did a decent job. Work horse is never going to be a show car. 🤷♂️
Haters gonna Hate
Definitely push out the bigger dents from behind if possible so you aren't caking filler on. And block sand for a smooth finish. Using a DA sander will leave waves. It's not a big deal on an old truck though honestly everything you did was fine. The stuff I and everyone else is telling you only matters if you want a high quality finish. A few waves won't hurt anything on an old work truck that you just want to make look better
Not that it matters now but to anyone using body filler. Bondo is the worst brand possible to use if you're putting it directly to bare metal. It is acidic, and it will cause rust eventually. And that looks like a floor or wood type sander, isn't it? Also, it wouldn't have rusted if you use etching primer on the bare metal instead of gray filler primer. Filler primer is used after all your body work and sanding is done before you lay your base coat to help fill In imperfections from body work and any sanding marks.
Hey brother small tip for body filler is to put guide coat on the body filler. When you sand it the guide coat will show you your low spots.
Great job!👍🏽
A lil bondo on them dings and dents would have made a world of difference!!!! But for an outdoor paint job it turned out halfway decent
Thank you yeah you really can see the dents once the clear goes on. im going to be taking my time on next one i paint.
Looks great brotha
This is amazing! You may not be a body guy but I would pay you to paint my truck any day!
Random suggestion. Have you thought about doing a sunburst yellow and burnt orange.
It will be like the sunset.
Thanks! And that sounds like a cool color i wonder how it would look.
Should have took the extra time and fixed the dents
Fam you can not fill in softball sizes dents with body filler!
Awesome did good job for your first time.
Did a Great job im about to start painting myself
Do it its so much fun, ill admit sanding sucks haha. but practice makes perfect!
Great info and tips on what you used.. You know Alot to say it was your first time.. I see a pro in the making 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾.. Gear head, Painter Life💙!!
I apprecaite that. Ive been painting few things since this video just havent uploaded in a while. had to take a break.
Yo that's a lot work, you learned a lot. Looks good. Stick with it.
Brother you gotta speak up and have some confidence about you. As my dad always told me, say it with your chest little dude
How many gallons of paint and clear did you use? I have the same truck but a long bed
i used about half gallon black and quart of clear i reccomend 2-3 coats of clear i did only one coat.
Hands Down!!!
That’s F’N Sweeeet
Man that old still ram really shows off the color shifting very cool
Its a slammer dude he just got some paint and went for it give credit where credit it due
hey man, super awesome video! I think you gave me the courage to paint my BRZ haha. One question, how much were the materials and tools?
My compressor was $180 at harbor freight, spray gun was $80 clear coat was $110 black paint was $120 sand paper and degreasers around $50
Guys I think he’s not a body guy 🤓
Yeah.. but it looks better that 85% of the 2nd gens out there
I don’t know, he didn’t say he wasn’t a body guy or not. And he didn’t say if he cared about those dents or not .
Beautiful Color change bro I think I might do the same color for my 03 Acura cl type S 👍 it came out beautiful.
Always spray a sealer right before painting your color. Just an FYI
Oh my goodness. Everything you’ve done so far is wrong on bodywork. So you do need to research that. Perhaps you don’t care how the body surface looks, but it would help your paint job at the end if it were flat and uniform versus All dinged up still.
I’m just amazed that you’re young and you’re out there. Trying to do this stuff because most people don’t have the energy and they’re too lazy to even try. So I appreciate your efforts bro.
Please always add a disclaimer to your videos and let people know that you’re not a pro and you’re just doing your own thing. They do not have to copy it nor do they have to insult you. However, compliments are always welcome. For your effort you deserve a compliment! :)
Keep a pair of tweezers on you just for those bugs and random pieces of hair that make their way into your paint
So you mixed the pearls with the clear coat....was the last clear coat layer just clear or with pearls to? Ta
Yes I mixed the pearls with clear, normally u would mix with binder coat but clear works fine. And I didn’t add another coat of just clear I’ll do it in next project. I would recommend another coat of just clear.
@@Boosted_Kevhey have a ?
@@davidtumbs9478 whats up?
Personally, I think that's a wrong color choice for a ram vehicle. A quality solid color compliment thoes contours better to me.
I respect your learning and you did a good first attempt however you might change the title of your video to :
How I painted my truck with color shift instead of presenting it as a tutorial.
You went through all that trouble to fix some dents, why not fix the hole in the front fender… it would have only took 10 more minutes time ?
If you say that truck was used for moving old concrete one more time .... 👀
looks dope bro great job 👍🏾 what kind of compressor are you using? i trying to get a decent setup for painting a car at home
its a harbor freight compressor its 21 gallon and i think 125 psi. I bought a new compressor which ill be making new video when i paint my camaro a colorshift pearl im in process now of painting it and editing video.
@@Boosted_Kev thanks and im looking forward to seeing the new vid ✌🏾
It looks great but I would of done the grill and upgrade the bumper to the fiberglass bumper with the fogs in it and some clear lights would make it look dope AF...but it deff came out good I love it.
But on another note when I kept watching the video when you started laying the pearl down I grinned so fcking hard when I seen that color flip😂😂👌🏼
Get ready painting the camaro color shift ill make sure to zoom into the pearls in slow mo for you :D. And now ive been so busy with other stuff havent had much time to make video's so much new stuff i have to update you all with! Also have a new car to reveal which ill be using for drifting :D
@@Boosted_Kev I gotcha I'm in the process of cutting a buffing my truck rn after 6month lol, I've got RL-71 color shifting pearl from DIPYOURCAR over a white base‼️ subtle but hits hard in low light conditions
Everyone has their acceptable look and results I suppose. But the video shouldn't be titled how to. Because this is actually a good how to not. You need to sand it down with the da. Then grind those dents out to the metal and push or pull them out as much as possible. Then spray a epoxy or etching primer before you apply mud. Then use a sanding block to smooth it out before primer. Then use a sanding block again over the entire truck. Usually another coat of primer and block once more. Lay your sealer, then black base. Especially outside, you should stop. Let it dry, the next day wet sand lightly. Then light coat of black, then your clear. Truck would look brand new. I'm sorry, but I guarantee that truck starts to bubble in a year.
Very nice.. Question.. Can I sand the clearcoat to remove orange peel once its ready to sand and then buff or will that mess up the pearls? Thanks!
yes id reccomend at least 2-3 coats of clear then wet sand and buff it, it will come out like glass.
Take the grill out...lol.
Take the tail lights out...lol.
Never mind...lol. My Bad.
Good job man! If you get the body work worked out better you could be making some good side money!
Fam you not supposed to use Lacquer thinner on urethane paint!
How many grams of pearl did you use ?
Another good tip I could recommend is not using regular bondo, but bondo with glass reinforced filler, or 3M Bondo 261 Lightweight Car Body Filler,
Evercoat 156 Lightweight Car Body Filler. All work well, they’ll be less likely to crack during season temperature changes, rough roads, just over all tends to last way longer. Looks amazing though. Don’t take any of this as criticism just friendly tip because you have the potential to be a good auto body professional. 👍🏼
Tape and mask up the jams so over spray doesn't go inside the truck.
Not using bumper and huge dent here on cab, got it
aye yo...that music track💯👍who is it playing???? im the begining...
its part of the youtube free music
What paint did you use
Silver/black/white flip... that's what I want
Question is, are you a body guy?
That nice man love it
great job.shes a looker.
Looks great, went to go price it out and the company is out of business already.... too bad the product looks great
they sell on ebay , i found them this week i have this color on my watching page it is CX37. i want to paint one of my cars or trucks this color.
Just did my 05 Yukon
I like your music enjoy
Last 5 minutes is pearls
You did good
Just came across your video. You did a great job 👍🏽 Truck looks good. New sub
Thanks Ive gotten alot better since i just havent posted in a min. been burnt out
@@Boosted_Kev I know the feeling
It takes a lot of time to record and edit videos. 👍🏽
Came out nice
Looks good man..
You alive?
I believe your suppose to spray it with intercoat clear then clear coat after...it still came out nice
Yes you are right, you can use intercoat clear then clear coat but at the time i only had clear coat but like you said came out good. i had alot of fun doing this.
Where did you get your directions? Trying to paint my motorcycle. First time using this product. Can't figure out what to mix with or how much
I mix into my clear and i add pearls till i get the effect i want then i spray it. this entire truck took about 50 grams
I use trans star Lv500 blending clear with all my dry pearls/flakes . Sprays just like base coat .
Way cool
We’re did you buy that color shift pearl at what is it called so I can ask my paint shops here thank you
I use you a clam clear base coat and it didn't come out well I need to use it and clear like I've been using it it comes out perfect every time I'm pissed on the messed up paint job
How did you remove the rear window trim for tape
I taped over it.
Looks awesome man I wish you would have put some time into body work to show off your work but we all know how much fun that is lol
This looks sweet! Nice job man 👍👍
Thank you
How much is this color in a gallon? They sell this stuff by grams right? So it’ll be a little over 20 grams?
My dumbass didnt wanna pay for a sander. Resulted in me sanding from sun up to sun down. not again
How many layers did you use for primer, base, color shift, and clear coat (did you use another gallon of the same clear coat used for color shift) trying to do it myself
really should've taped off or taken off those door handles. Other than that, pretty cool.
How long did it take you to complete
3 days mabe longer if i had fix all the dents
Nice job bro! Keep going!
Thank you man! i appreciate it! im working on painting my camaro now! so another video soon to follow
So will the clear fill i the orange peel and smooth it out?
Damn good job
Thank you still learning im not great at body work.
this was a great video
Thank you! thanks for watching :)
What gun and compressor did you use?
Harbor freight 21 gal compressor and harbor freight purple gun

Beauty full colour
Thank you!
Sir mujhebi colour chaheye please kahase milega
Did you put a clear over the pearls?
How much powder did you use total? Wanting to find out how much I need for a 2008 tahoe. I have 100 grams already
Put in 50 shake like a mofo.test on bumber want more put rest in
Usually 50 gr to gal
What pearl did you use this color is sick?
Dope bro
thanks im still learning gonna keep practicing, painting my camaro,and honda next all different colorshift
Did you use all 75 grams or how many quarts of color did you spray
50 grams of didspade pearl
Your second coat was it a clear coat only or did you add more pigment? What color pigment you use?
didspade colorshift pearl and i used 50 grams
Did you use the blue iris powder? If not which one did you use
it is CX37 you can get it on ebay
Awesome 👍
How much clear did you use and how much black base did you use am just trying to see how much on everything I would need
i used about half gallon black half clear
OK thanks so much for replying man and looks good
@@coreyowens346 Thank you! Id reccommend laying like 2 coats of clear that way you can wet sand and buff and get a mirror finish :D on this truck it has 2 coats of black base, and 2 coats of the pearl mixed with clear coat, you can also mix the pearls with a divider paint its like matte clear then you spray clear over top. but im happy how mine came out.
How long did it take you total time
2-3 days total would take longer if i took out more dents. but its not to bad
How much color shift pearl did you use?
50 grams of pearl
@@Boosted_Kev Thank you for the information 😁
What do you mean by burn through while sanding?
Is it bad if the metal is showing?
That way you can turn the truck back into the original cavas to work with?
How many jars of the didspade colorshift did you need to fully coat the truck?
I'm trying to paint the exact type of truck and your video is extremely helpful 😁
I used a total of 50 grams of didspade pearls, which is 2 jars. and about half gallon of clear i still have half gallon clear left so i could spray it again. And by burn thru i mean while your sanding you dont wanna keep going down to baremetal youll have to use primer on all metal areas because if you spray just paint it will flake off later.
@@Boosted_Kev did you mix both jars in the half gallon ?
You left out the part about the sanding of the primer and some of the more intricate details about the painting process. I'd love to have seen and learn more about the sanding processes
You got it ill show that process on my camaro im painting next! i did sand the primer as well with 320 grit then wiped it down and sprayed.

Those aren't dents. They add character to the truck.
