I painted two full exterior Volkswagen polo from the 1990’s using spray cans after watching and learning from your videos. The results were outstanding. Restoration and detailing if anyone wants to have a look.
Hi mate can you put a link to your channel in here? I've searched you but too many vids come up but none seem to be from your account? I'd be happy to have a look as I have a similar plan following Brian's techniques. Thanks
Not a problem now I realised I can just click your profile pic :)
Just found your channel about a week ago because I recently got an offer from my neighbor who flips cars. He saw what I did for my wheels with rattle cans and asked me if I wanted to paint his cars. Now I am buying everything I would need to paint quick flips, starter everything. Harbor freight junk. But we have to start somewhere, and most of the reason I'm willing to sacrifice so much is because you gave me the confidence. I love your videos, and I have already learned so much. You are a great teacher!
Would a video on tools needed for an entry level setup be good? I would probably purchase all of them from links,lol. I really enjoy this channel.
Tekton is great for hand tools. Durablock for sanding blocks, harbor freight da sander will do fine for entry level. Astro pneumatic makes good entry level affordable spray guns/ other air tools you want. Harbor freights body hammers work just fine for basic metal work.
Keep in mind I love this channel as well but expect a lot of Eastwood and kovax sponsorship. Eastwood is hit or miss, and I’ve never tried kovax sandpaper so I can’t speak to it.
Coming soon!
@Paint Society please include an entry level compressor you would recommend. I've been looking for videos on this topic but everyone skips the compressor recommendations. Thanks for being an excellent instructor.
Wonder if paint society has a website for Q and A. I'd like to send pics of my project and recommendations to tackle it. (Truck being used as a truck)
thank you! was surprised at how many videos showed brand new bumpers but wanted a video on prepping an old bumper for paint. this is perfect.
Excellent video straight to the point, easy to follow and educational.
Hi Brian! Great to see you in your newly fitted garage, looking good (and somewhere of your own to do your own filming continuance without needing to worry about usage by others). Thanks for sharing 👍
Definitely. When I filmed this video I felt good again. Definitely has been tough without the garage for the last 8 months or so
I appreciate the way he explains what he's doing and why. Good videos.
Love the garage set up! Wow! Congrats bradah
Thanks Brian. Another great video. Plan on working on my '70 Impala this summer and will revisit this video!
Workshop is coming together nicely Brian.
You're so right about wearing gloves. I've seen countless DIY videos where the content creator immerses his hands in motor oil, transmission fluid, brake cleaner, WD-40, etc. and I'm sitting there cringing. These chemicals all have harmful ingredients that are rapidly absorbed through the skin. I personally wash my hands immediately if I should happen to get anything on them while working in the garage. And I wear gloves. So thank you for this.
Exactly!
More than the cars, our health alwayssss comes first!!!!
I knew how important respiratory equipment is, but was unaware just touching all that was so bad… have touched a fair amount of the clean/dirty oil with my hands.
Thanks for the insight.
so your not supposed to clean your hands with brake cleaner
Ever heard of a mechanic??
Bro just started watching paint videos as I’m working redoing my 2016 Honda Civic and want new fenders side, skirts, and bumpers, but this was great
Thanks for this video. I was able to paint my back bumper as a whole novice and it came out great.
Just what I needed thanks Brian for the time and patience on making these awesome videos brother ✌

you are a good teacher, thanks
We need part two of this!!
Awesome dude! Love your video’s!
Glad you like them!
Brian, your timing was impeccable mate! I'm at this exact stage on my Falcon project here in Australia and was wondering whether i should start by blocking or going straight for the sander. Question has been answered. Great Vid!!
Always always block first
Hi Brian, I'm glad you went with this floor finish vs the marble. IMO a lot better choice...Now I will watch the full video :)
Haha. Yes. I’ll be doing an update on that soon
Dead on time with this one Brian, I have a project coming up pretty much the same!!!!! Thank you!! The garage is looking good.
Thanks man. It felt great to get a video in there
Brilliant . Thanks alot.
currently working on a spoiler of mine, thanks man!
Thank you so much for your videos I be learn so much from all your videos and can’t wait to set up my first paint booth

Nice accord in the background!
Garage looking good 👍
Exhausted from setting it up but almost there ! Thanks man
I can't wait to see the custom inflatable booth!
Great Video…again!😃
Looks like Florida backyard. Nice garage.
I understand the garage is still in progress, but would like to see videos documenting that process. Choice of finishes, types of equipment you looking at getting and reasons why. Also color schemes for painted surfaces,because part of painting cars at home is getting your home setup right or as best as what will fit into budget. Love the channel.
Hi. Yes. I have all the footage still and waiting for the whole garage to be finish before that video is edited
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I plant to tackle the prep work on my S2000 Amuse FRP parts
I clicked like without even watching this because I know it’s going to be good! Always good on this channel
Thanks Brian!
You're the best!
Hello Brian thanks for all the videos. Idea for future videos: Compare different types of paints and how they work (different brands of paint, how they are mixed, how they turn out, cost vs durability, which work best with budget gun, mid-range or top end spray guns). I'm doing my first base/clear paint job and finding relevant info about this topic is difficult. And the paint makers I'm looking at have sites that are way too complicated. I've got a recommendation to use PPG or Sikkens.
Your videos turned me into a great painter I'm still so so on filler lol but man thanks a million
look good thanks
Great instructor/video! I WONDERED why u were spraying so close until u indicated it was windy. Easy for an amateur like me to get runs. Thanks again for using tools for the average person. I'm not in the process of painting, just find your videos very interesting. 👍
I'm not here all the time so I don't know what you use all the time but I was like..
Eastwood baby!!!
Great video and great point on the cost. It's extremely costly to do a entire car with these. This product is great for one time use just to get one panel nice for someone with limited resources or tools
Couldn’t agree more and these cans have double to nestle $50. Insane !
Yea it's wild. If you were to do a actually restoration which requires a nice 2-3 coats of primer fill and block, you would blow 40-60 a panel just on primer using this stuff 😂😂😂😂😂😂 but like we both said great for small one time repairs
Awsome❤
Please do a similar video where the paint is OK and only the clearcoat needs to be re-done Like, the spoiler on my MIata had some spots with deteriorating clearcoat. I thought I could compound down to a layer of clear that was still good, but ended up picking up some paint color on my pad and stopped. The paint looks fine, so I think I just need to re-clear. Should I just wet-sand the whole spoiler with 600, mask it off from the rest of the car, then spray it with a can of 2K clear?
You’ll need to primer if the clearcoat is bad. No way around it.
@@PaintSociety Oh dang, ok. Is the issue that the new clear won't stick to the scuffed-up old clear? Or does the final result not look good because of the old clear being scratched and the new clear not perfectly filling in the scratches? Or something else?
Thanks for the video! I recently painted a fiberglass front bumper cover using your techniques, and it didn't come out as well as I had hoped. All my fault, of course. There were a lot of imperfections in the primer it came with, so the paint really didn't go on evenly, and some of the "blemishes" are still visible. (Note: I've also painted a spoiler, rear bumper covers, and two side rocker panels, and they all came out great, because I prepped properly first!). So, I want to redo the front panel. Should I just sand it down to the base coat, smoothing out the imperfections, and re spray and re-clear coat?
Thanks, again!
Enjoy all ur videos im learning alot feeling confident on my secont time spraying a car. One question is if im going over a paint job with regular primer to block out. Would i need to put epoxy sealer before my basecoat this epoxy sealer seems intimidating to me
dont overthink it!! jeez thats why im here to learn all i can and in doing so im overwelmed with info and im overthinking!!
DUDE . . LOVE the music in the 5 to 6 minute area . . . I gotta know the music . . . Rock on lil brother . . XCLNT TRAINING vid . .

Great video! Thank you! Question tho, did you use a body filler/kit at that light spot 10:04?
This is a lot more learnable than some of the other videos I’ve watched. I’ve been trying my darnedest to get a decent job from rattle can colour shift paint with unsatisfactory results. The whole panel gets ruined by a few wrinkled areas. After so many attempts I’ve stripped it down to original paint. I needed to address some rock chips so now I’m ready for colour coat. Even though I haven’t sanded past the original coat is it advisable to prime again or just go ahead with the colour coat. I’ve used both Tremclad and 2k gloss black for the base coat. This time I’m using the 2k gloss black for the first coat. Hopefully no wrinkles. Then the colour shift. The problem is that when I’ve laid down clear coats, the next day I will find some wrinkled spots. This is so frustrating. It invades my dreams. Have you any advice you could pass on to help me with this? I would really appreciate it.
Nice video
Brian: What does high build primer mean? Is it a thick coating? Why a thicker coating then a one K? When do you use high build and when the opposite? Appreciate your time and videos!❤
I’ll be answering this in detail on my next video.
I started watching your tutorials last summer.
Since it's getting nicer out I'm back on research for spay gun purchase, I saw the $200.00 Iwata 1.3 and am wondering about the kit that converts it to a 1.8 or 2.0.
Brian, I have some new (metal) panels that had EDP coating on it. I sprayed epoxy primer and am now wondering if I need to spray a urethane primer as well or if the epoxy primer is enough before spraying base coat. Since the panels are new, they're perfectly straight and won't need blocking.
That 7gen Accord Coupe in the background looking clean!! Been watching your channel trying to apply everything from your videos to my 06 Accord Coupe with a full HFP kit. Still in the body work phase but your videos have helped me a lot Brian and I thank you for that!!
That’s awesome. Mine is an original 05 with the conversion
I have the 03-05 kit on mine that I had to make some modifications to the front lip for it to fit properly, but it’s fitted now. Mine’s also a Nighthawk Black Pearl.
Hi Brian. Thanks for another great video. On previous video you have said you like the primer to land in a P320 scratch. Is there a specific reason you only sanding up to P220 before primer on this video?
Hi Brian, my g35 aluminium hood paint peeled off in the front. What kind of stuff should i use? Thank you I appreciate your answer.
This could be useful for my brother.
His 1986 VW T3 Bluestar has failing clear coat on 80% of the roof plus 4 large square patches where the paint has either turned white (bus is metallic blue) or come away from some dodgy repairs.
He originally wanted it painted then laughed at the quotes so bought himself a roll of gloss black wrap to cover the whole roof. Temporary fix for a few years.
I wonder if he could get a decent finish? His previous DIY painting job was his VW bay window camper where he rattle canned the white door tops. Came out really good all be it a lot less area to paint than a roof.
Hey brother love your videos but I have a question. I bought a new hood for my daughter's BMW 328i and it came primered black, I bought the factory paint from paint direct but do I have to scuff that new primered hood with fine grit sand paper before I primer and paint the new hood and if so what grit sand paper do you recommend?
Hey Brian I am looking into the rupes Skorpio III sander. Would you recommend the 3mm or 6mm orbit sander?
Brian! Speaking of entry level tools, im doing my first body/paint related job on my car this weekend. i have a 3m 6100 dual cartridge respirator with p100 and ov cartridges. do you think that will protect me while grinding sanding priming and painting?
Would this be the same procedure for a new Harwood fiberglass hood that is factory gel coated?
Would u do this whole process for a after market hood that comes in blk already or would u just scuff with scotch tag and paint it? Or do I have to primer it any help would be gladly appreciated
Hello Brian I have a 2002 BMW 530i in titanium silber color. Can you recommend what type of paint, sealer,clear and where to purchase. Thanks to you I’m going to DYI it in a home garage. I live in Houston,Texas. Thanks man your content is very inspiring and concise, thanks for sharing your experience!
Do you have to get into the paint or can you do sand the clearcoat of the original surface and prime over that??
Recommend compressor for paint ??
Hi! Great videos! Any more videos on this C5 Corvette coming? I have one that I will be painting at least the hood on soon!
This summer I’ll be finishing the car yes
Are you spraying so close to the hood because of the wind? What do you recommend? Thank you!
Hey Brian I have a question for you. I am going to repaint 2014 fusion with a few door dings to fix and some rock chipping on hood and bumper cover the clear coat is delaminated in some spots. The question is do I need to take the clear coat completely off the whole car or just in the delaminated spots. Can I spray base coat over sanded (with 400) and sealed clear coat? Thanks Love you work
Would be neat to see you do a video on motorcycle fairings! Curious how it would go doing their ABS fairings (Aftermarket) or stock (not sure the material totally)
Congratulations 🎉Great fan,🎖💫

@paintsociety is it necessary to prime over existing paint without any rust or scratches? Can i just take off the clear coat and then repaint with top voat?
Just what I was looking for. I have an ‘89 Toyota pickup- guessing that’s metal 😆. Would you suggest different grit for that?
Can you use the high build on spot repairs to feather (rather than an entire panel)? Also how thick can you go with this stuff?
I have a 02 chevy Avalanche the hood needs painting can you do a video on how to DIY please and what do I needs to buy
What grit sandpaper should i use to sand the primer before applying base coat?
I would recomemd Festool autoclean and esc 5mm throw sander. And 3m clean sand sanding blocks for your next vac systen brother
Hello, just painted some exhaust tips, but used non-high heat primer by mistake. I did apply 5 coats of high heat paint over it. Insides were painted too. Am I facing any danger here? Thanks for your help 👍🏼
nice
If this was a metal hood with exposed bare metal and filler, would an etch primer be recommended over those areas prior to filler primer over the entire hood?
Hey brain,
My question is have you ever sprayed water Bourne paints before??
Do you prefer solvent paint or water Bourne paints and what are the pros and cons between these two types of paints
Could you use standard degreaser instead of paint prep?
Now how would the process be for metal panels? I plan on painting my dashboard and window garnish moldings from my 1952 Chevy Styleline Deluxe.
Congratulations 🎉Great fan,🎖💫

where im from, the paint prep spray is a lot more expensive and its quite hard to find. Would it be okay for my case to just go through more sand paper than usual instead? Will it negatively impact the prep? prior to sanding i wash the surface with dishsoap + water instead.
Im wanting to do the top of my wifes honda pilot, the tilting of the can and it running out of material and sputtering has me worried, any ideas? maybe drive it up on ramps?
Where can you buy good quality paint online. Do I need to mix it myself or can you find paint ready to spray? Looking to paint a 2019 ford mustang magnetic metallic (J7).
hey man! love your video's. How would you go about painting a spoiler, if i just place it on top of a stand, it would be hard to get paint on the bottom, cuz the gun would be spraying up, and i dont think that would work too well
I have painting rigs for this. I use a stand like the multi flex and it has studs they screw into the holes.
what size spray can are they? 200ml? and how many did you use for the bonnet ?
Brian, thanks for the great video! What rattle can primer would you use for a metal hood?
Also do I need to take the old paint all the way to bare metal. The paint is 3 years old it needs color correction. The primer is showing through the paint.
Epoxy
Do a respray on a plastic bumper cover please!
Good evening Brian have a question for you when I lay down my paint it peel off or raise up what is it and what can I do to stop that?
Great Content! Can we get a spec and review of that Eastwood compressor?
Yes, soon
Could you use a orbital polisher when dry sanding or do you need to start with the block? I suppose for the cross-hatching?
3:33, he explains it right here why he starts with the block. Hope that helps
Brian, once again, a great video lesson. Thank you. The paint on the hood of my 2008 Tacoma has chipped off the first 8 inches from the front of my hood. Your technique from this video would not work because the paint is also chipping off areas on the rest of the truck. The factory covered metal has that gray sealer exposed and in some areas the metal has begun to rust. For that type of tired paint will sanding down to bare metal with 80 grit be the better way to go? Then seal it with self etch primer or epoxy, before applying sandable primer, be the way to approach the refinish?
Do they have primer 'sealant' available in an aerosol can?
Can you do a video on how to this on a pure metal panel? I have a classic car I want to paint myself and want to make sure I paint it right.
Brian… you know what would be cool? A video series with a noob taking a car and prepping and repainting it. I’d probably ask questions people would be interested in too since I’m not a body man or professional painter by trade. And I’m not far from you. I think it would be cool
