They call it Soul Red Metallic for a reason. You must leave a piece of your soul in every paint job to get it correct. Definitely Not for the faint of heart or amateur. Beautiful work.
Incredible work man. As an owner with this exact paint I am scared shitless of damage because there aren't enough people like yourself with this attention to detail.
....I STARE at that color when I see it parked somewhere...the most glorious red on the market so deep that if you don't hold onto the ground you'll fall into it!!!
As a Miata owner, with many friends with Soul Red, the matching of paint after collision work has been very “hit or miss” . You seem to have a process that works! That outcome looks fabulous! I’ll be sure to send a link to the Miata community!
Excellent job! The 2 happiest days of my life were the day my wife bought a Mazda with 46V and the day I sold it! I read after I got rid of it that Mazda had some paint issues with it chipping, not sure if that is true but the hood was so full of rock chips that I almost repainted the front clip.
They're beautiful, but unfortunately you give up some durability with pretty much any 3-stage paint. That includes pearl whites. They're a little easier to chip and more likely to fade if it's a color in the red family. Also, Im sorry to say your wife may be a tailgater. That's the most common reason for excessive rock chips in the front bumper and hood. Driving too close to veihcles in front of you. Especially semi trucks. No offense, just relaying the facts. Im sure your wife is a lovely person.
@@edjackson4389tailgating or not the rock chips are inevitable. I own a 22 MX-5, it’s my daily and being from Colorado means a ton of elevation changes. I swear I will be in the far right lane going the speed limit and a semi 100 feet a way in the far left will throw a random rock chip on my hood with the winding roads like I-70 and I-76 here. Throw that in with so much traffic and everyone blowing by you going 90. 15k miles in and I’ll probably have to get a respray soon if I don’t end up wrapping it instead
Painted my 2000 s10 race truck this color used matrix mpb lv with Ag-40 euro clear...my father in law has been painting since the early 80s and it kicked our ass... super tricky color. Walked out the entire truck like a candy paint job.and it still acted funny. Over all great paint job but completely different look then the mazda cars look.
Casually interested in auto paint but never gone past rattle cans (YET!). I’ve always loved that Mazda red (not the car) and wondered what was up with that paint. Now I know! Thoroughly enjoyed the process, skill, and extra steps. Subscribed and plan to watch more vids!
We had an MX-5 in Soul Red. Magnificent color. I was always afraid that it would get damaged and need a repaint because I KNEW it would be almost impossible to get it back to factory perfection.
I was very happy that Brian from Paint Society did a video where he kind of helped a little on the red Ferrari project where He introduced you to his people on his channel. I was happy seeing the work that you did on that and seeing some of the custom work you’re doing like on this car. I must say you’re a fabulous painter and really take pride in your work. I really respect that!
Always looking great man. Back to the days when this color first launch, its a night mare to spray. In our paint system, its not tinted clear for the candy, its just binder with concentrate red which makes it alittle easier to spray. But man, u do a great job with any paint system. 👍👍. Btw, appreciate if you can teach how to do a soft edge masking on your knees. I tried alot of times and it just didn't turn out straight enough the edge 😅
Great work bro! Autobody painter of 24yrs here PPG for life! Envirobase is great product no complaints its great for collision work. I still go back to dbc for overall jobs . Keep up great work brother!
this was new to me. the candy is in the clear. always was in the belief that candy was layed after a base and then clear..... life is too short to learn new stuff :D
Cool video buddy on our system it’s the normal base then tinted mid coat then clear coat havnt don’t one for a few years now but the first one I did was pretty exciting to do.people say how scary that copper base looks on the normal candy panels lol 😂 great tips for us all buddy and quality as usual 👍👍👍
when i first saw that color on the street i was Blown away Mazda throws that on their cars, best red out there without being custom... id love to throw that down on my project vw squareback
Absolutely beautiful job Kandy Man! I have a soul red mazda, and as nice as it is, I wouldn't get it again, chips too easy. Just today a car in front of me kicked up road debris and it hit my pass door and chipped it. I'm not happy.
i would never buy this color. i've heard for some accidents, insurance will total the car- the paint is that expensive and difficult to correctly lay down. this thing had a ding on 1/4 of the door, and half of the car ending up getting painted !
I'm curious why there's a difference between ppg and Sherwin on this color. My system calls for a black sealer. And use the black sealer and number of base coats to determine how dark you color will be. And I am definitely a fan of the darkest 46v. I painted my Abarth this color when 46v first came out. It looks great but I added a little copper over my base, just a drop coat. Unfortunately it made it brighter, and I regret it, although it does looks amazing. As a custom painter I like to make my cars have that unique color. My dream job besides painting custom cars custom colors and designs would be to create colors for manufacturers that want to venture into flashy colors.
Beautiful colour and a beautiful finish on the 46V Kandy Man you make it look so easy, I've done this colour once and it came out fine but for some reason the mid coat isn't a true candy in my scheme but it's a basecoat binder with a couple of transparent tinters to get the candy effect, came out looking nice though👌🙏👍John UK
@@HackMasterBlaster I use PPG Deltron (solvent based) and most candies I fix use tinted clear basecoat as the candy layer. Only a few colors are the exception. This Mazda 46V and Fords RR, and few others use the tinted clearcoat method he's demonstrating in this video. So, you never really know til you pull up the formula. As beautiful as they are I despise these colors. Insurance companies rarely pay enough to compensate for the extra labor and material cost associated with these candies.
great work. I've heard these are a royal pain, you did a super job. that's the only way to be, top quality, there's enough hackers in the world- in every industry. Thanks !
My paint manufacturers formula for this has the candy mixed in the clear base like a pearl tricoat. I couldn't get it to look right until I started putting the last bit into my first coat of clear and finishing like this. I hope this might help someone
Hy. I have a question for u man, i love these color and your work is excellent. My question is that when u are spraying these colors u use the same colors just more coats or do u use different colors in each coat? I am a nooby in these kind of thing but i want to paint my car like this.
Amazing job. Very impressive blending. I have a guitar I would like to paint like this. How could a regular Joe like myself acquire the materials you used for this paint job?
I love this color Mazda 46V soulred metalic, May I know what is your base color (orange silver color) before candy color. Thanks. I have paint this color but it is very difficult to get the right color. It usually view color from the side does not match good. Thanks.
God I love that color. Hey you did it in 2 stages. i thought it was 3 layers? An light absorbing flake layer, a fine aluminum flake layer and then the pigment layer.
New subscriber here binge watching all your stuff, I use glasurit 90 line waterborne paint they really make this color so easy to spray and match sprays like any tri coat I would love to see you and paint society colab and try out the product and give it a review
Nice work, I paint this quite well using tinted clear. Shade used is key and percentage of tint/clear. Have you painted 51k rhodium white yet? 😨 this is my new nemesis 😅
Im panel painting quarter to rear door. Was just a gate and bumper job , came out decent, door closed onto quarter as prepper took the car out 😂😂😢😢😢😢 did it once and its to bright red, redo 😭
I don’t know anything about painting, where is like the best place to learn it online? I’m an apprentice body repair tech, but keen to learn things about painting too
Hi, Kandy Man, I really like your work on painting this car with 46V Soul Red Crystal. I'm also working on this color in Indonesia but I'm having difficulty, sometimes the first layer isn't dark enough, I add the next layer and it will be darker. Is it true that this color uses paste? Thanks.
Glad to know this, I do Candy paint jobs like this as well but I've gotten a lot of criticism that it's not the correct process. It's reassuring to know that someone with your experience and knowledge does it like that too. I've been told you have to panel paint candy jobs but I have never had an issue painting them they way you did👍
Hi i am a collegue from Italy. I Will repair some colore on my wife's mx5 last week.it Will be my First time. I saw your well video ,i have Palini brand and i have tu colorate clear me to,and i have a question for you.

Incredible work man. As an owner with this exact paint I am scared shitless of damage because there aren't enough people like yourself with this attention to detail.

And if you can find the right person, will the insurance cover the additional required cost to get it right?
Every time I see this beautiful color on a Mazda I lose my mind! Absolutely stunning color 🙌🏽
...me too...
We saw it for the first time at night, and it was dirty. And even dirty in the dark it was gleaming.
Yeah, it's incredible!
You are more than the kandy man you are the kandy master. 👍👍👍
Appreciate the support 👊
I work at Mazda Toyota Manufacturing in Alabama. That Soul Red Crystal looks good at all times. Day, night, dawn, or dusk. Frickin beautiful.
Yes it does 👍

This is by far the best red on a production car of the last decade. I want someone to spray some guitar bodies in it for me.

I have to say your level of detail is impeccable.. You’re 100% an excellent car painter.. I can see why they call you The Candyman!!
Thank you
been spraying candys for a while and man, that was a tricky blend but you executed it so well. Excellent work.
We had an MX-5 in Soul Red. Magnificent color. I was always afraid that it would get damaged and need a repaint because I KNEW it would be almost impossible to get it back to factory perfection.
Clears tend to fade when more coats are sprayed is something different with tinted clear. I never sprayed this kind of color.

I wanted to hate on how you sprayed your clear, but that came out sweet. 2021 clear is superb.
👍
Phenomenal work. And you really want "mind... blown!" with this color, look at it in bright sun through polarized sunglasses!
Great job! I just wish there is somebody as good as you in the Philippines that can do the 46v. Thats just awesome!

Hardest to paint??? You made it look simple!! You are an artist.. great job. Thank you
Appreciate it 👊
Well now I know why they call you the candyman . Your color matching candies. Nice
this was new to me. the candy is in the clear. always was in the belief that candy was layed after a base and then clear..... life is too short to learn new stuff :D
👊👊
thats how I done for a few 3 stage. maybe candy colors you mix the pearl with clear then clear without the pearl. Im I,right?
Awesome job Kandy man. I’ve always done the clear blend before the kandy. Either way still looks amazing!
Appreciate it Juan 👊
Master paint job... 🎉🎉🎉😊
Thanks for the support 👍

When I restored my Nissan 180SX, I had it painted this color. Absolutely stunning. Expensive, but worth it!
Much respect. Nothing beats experience.
yes, lose that blend on the high, convex spots over the wheel wells! helps a ton
Silkkens red sealer definitely helps this color process as well as fords RR...... The Acura NSX is a nice little color as well
Great artistry, your results are fantastic. Good to watch, thanks
Fantastic explanation of what you needed to do and a beautiful result.
Damn, you made that look easy! Thank you for the pro tips Brother!
Really awesome result🙏
Thanks a lot
Beautiful job. That red is SICK!
Respect from Texas.
Thanks!
Great work. My 2016 CX-5 is still oem color, no accidents. Best color of the world.
👍

I have a Mazda 3 Sedan in this color and truly I say, this color truly turns heads 😎 I love it!!!!
I totally agree!

In ultra BC8 it’s a clear basecoat with a red toner. Usually water based systems will use tinted clear not so much with solvent.

A+ man. Incredible technique and explanation as well. New to the channel and I'm glad I found it. Cheers
Thank you glad to hear
Awesome👍✅️
Beautiful paint job.
Super good mate 👍
Thank you 👍
Great work! What technique do you use to avoid mottling in the candy stage?
Dv1 gun is great help overlap and walk the panels
Why not run the base along the entire side (accept the top)? Beautiful work.

Salmon pink
Lovely work to see.
Blending Candy has to be painful when it doesn't work. I've seen you do it and I'm still not convinced it can be done.
God I love that color. Hey you did it in 2 stages. i thought it was 3 layers? An light absorbing flake layer, a fine aluminum flake layer and then the pigment layer.
Yes this is a 3stage
I definitely learned something today! Amazing!

Both difficult

What tip and psi did you spray your clear? Noticed you used the dv1 🥳
1.2 c2 cap 22 psi

No just turn up the heat a little
Great job!
Why no 6 inch paper in jams instead of all that tape?
Not a fan always rips and has OVERSPRAY
