Spray Painting Clear Coat At Home

- In this video we're up to the clear coat stage on the repair and paint procedure of my Corolla Tailgate, we're painting in my garage. I wasn't happy with the first coat of clear so I decided to sand it back and flow coat it.

Spraying at home one of the mistakes is to positioning the panels oblique and horizontal , panels on vertical les nibs in the clear coat,apart for the roof , I'm wiping the panel between each basecoat with the sticky cloth , before starting to spray make sure you have an full wet floor and wait for dust to settle down 10-15 minutes, preferably nothing on the walls around the spray area and wet walls preferably, try to move slowly , works pretty well , sorry for my broken English x
I'm sure when you get your extraction fan it will help alot more . I'm looking forward to the installation and review of the fan. Great work from the UK. 👍
hey i must say everytime I look at your videos I learn something new keep up the good work and that tail Gate looks really good cheers man
true I have learned a lot from gunny. I have same idea here I use a 24 inch barn fan way over kill for the little area he has. I also run 2 air purifiers to get rid of the suspended dust. I just put in a gas radiant tube heater forced air furnace absolute no no. And I use a pro-lite with 110 cap unless its really thick clear a plus gun works better.
I've tried a lot of clears and finally went back to Sherwin-Williams Finish 1 Clear, FC720 Overall clear or FC710 spot repair (great for wheels). They both use the same hardeners. Lays down nice, hard to run and quick set up time. I don't think I'll ever try another clear coat. You can smash this stuff on and not worry about running it unless your hand gets stuck in one spot and you keep the trigger open. If Sherwin-Williams ever gets a wheel coat color match system or wants to work on one with me, I'll go full SW.
Not sure why I ever tried and wasted my money trying so called "better" clears. Absolutely love the Finish 1 clear coat.
Nice job gunny - not trying to teach a man of your skills anything, but I've found that spraying in those sort of conditions a mini gun works better for the smaller jobs as you aren't blowing such a large volume of air about and consequently not raising so much dust to get in the finish.
Thanks Gunny.
Glad to see even the Pro's get those little nibs and contamination as well.
No matter how hard I try at home, I still get them........bastards!
When I sprayed my Ford GTP in blueprint blue I just ended up giving it a few more coats of clear so I had that
bit extra to sand out and polish.
I like the whole DIY in a shed at home idea Mate.....I reckon a heap of us can relate to it.
I need to get one of those infrared setups though
Your a Legend Mate
So smart with heating the clear. Every video I'm learning new tips from you.
Every day is a school day watching gunny
Had covid twice now, first was early march 2020, then again this year early march. It takes a while to feel 100% again but choke down some vitamins or even just a multi and it helps clear your head a bit if you feel tired or foggy.
As for sandpapers, we used 4cr and mirka before. 4cr is cheap garbage and mirka leaves deep scratches with the block that the even orbital sometimes struggles to remove for some reason. The price of the mirka ones shot up here recently tho so we switched to kovax and i really like them, although i remember you said a while ago they've dropped in quality a bit, but it's better than the cheap papers we used so i can't complain, haha.
Anyway, hope you get back to 100% soon. Have a nice weekend, gunny
Thanks for doing this. All my paint work is done at home and I find these videos extremely useful.
I got so sick of the amount of nibs I was getting at home I invested in one of the inflatable spray booth's and find they work pretty good nice to see a home painting video. Cheers Gunny
Love the home videos since many of us are true diy without a booth.
Hi mate, with winter in Melbourne approaching, you need to be aware that the metal roof will attract condensation which can drip onto your new paint..you can probably guess how I know this... a good solution is to get one of those 'wedding tent' things on line which are around 3m x 6m and cost around $100 - they keep the drips off.
I like Mirka sandpaper, their abranet and abralon stuff is great
Good to see your little buddy on patrol. I use PPG Omni high solid clear, cheap and buffs okay.
Awesome video and work! Greetings from USA , that was one thing I noticed after being cured of covid was feeling tired all the time for like a month straight. I’d be exhausted after painting all day! Glad your back at it in the paint shop.
The gun cleaner looks great, I can't seem to find it available in the UK though. Thanks for doing these home gamer videos. I've picked up lots of useful tips for some of my upcoming garage paint jobs.
see my comments above about the 3M 26689. I've been in touch with a supplier in the USA but works out at over £20 a can because of the shipping.
@@bumblebeeprojects5232 I'm wondering if IPONE a motorbike chain cleaner would be any good. Seems the uk doesn't have much options.
Really nice finish for a home garage paint job there Gunny as it looks like doesn't really need anything doing to it but it's hard to tell in the video 🤔
I use a lot of 3M products but I've just got a couple of boxes (p320 & P400) of the Quartz 150mm sanding discs from Chris at Spray Guns Direct and I have to say they do cut very well, using a P400 I get just over one wing (fender) per disc but I still finish it off with a 3M P600 blue foam backed disc which are expensive but leave a great finish.
Hope you are soon back to full health mate as covid can take a while to get over so take it easy 🙏👍 John UK.
Great clip helps a lot indeed.pity your not in Syd that would be great
Well done gunman,well done 👏
Hell yea brother. Definitely with you on the sand papper game. Its true you use way more of it, 3m all the way 👊
I'm in Wisconsin USA I buy that 3m gun cleaner at no joke harbor freight for $6.99 a can. Also buy it from autobody paint supply for the same price. The only reason I go to harbor freight is for the 3 m gun cleaner. I buy all they have on the shelves .
Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦.
Maybe try and vaccum the majority of the dust off then air blow. To minimize the dust. Also I bet when you open and close the door it drops dust from the ceiling . Try leaving the door a bit open.
Problems I have had in a garage spray booth.
Hands down, wiping the panel with a clean micro fiber cloth with water as the final wipe, brings down that static electricity, especially on flat panels, dramatically reduces the dirt, lint,etc. Helped me.a bunch in the garage.
Great instructions mate, this is exactly how I paint my builds and yeah...lots of polishing with the buffer and the rupes system... :)
Hey, another great video. I'm a diy guy so love the at home videos. I was also tired for awhile after recovering from covid. I had the original, when covid first came around before all the variants, and it kicked my butt for longer than I thought it would. Good luck and keep up the great content.
When you pour from a full container/tin of liquid, like the DTT, turn the can 180° so that the outlet is on the highest point, then hold the cup up to the outlet instead of leaving it on the bench. Your spillage and loss will be almost nil. Do same with fuel cans etc, and hold funnel against opening. Tip from an old dude.
I always do, I'm more than familiar with the method. But these PPG cans are terribly designed. When full you can't avoid spillage. And the hardener cans have the hole in the middle of the can, not much you can do there but get the pouring lids.
Killer match bro
Looks like you had a very interested apprentice.
Great work mate like always well done
Awesome for normal garage people like me!
I painted a bumper at home don't ask how but it was cleaner than some jobs at work
I’m curious why you don’t wear eye protection. I’m not a painter but going to attempt the repair on my truck. It looks like that stuff would bother them.
Thats something to think about in regards to the sandpaper. I have noticed the cheaper paper I have been buying doesnt last long. So maybe spending a bit more on name brand paper is worth it, even working at home. Might even save money in the long run? Or cost not much more at the least. But even at home, need to be efficient
3M purple sandpaper, I think it will save you money. Give it a try.
Great work always killing it!🤘 got a suggestion for another gun review here have you tried the Iwata Kiwami4? If not might be a fun review cheers 👊
Hey Gunny, have you thought about starting an affiliate program so your viewers can buy the darty prep products. Cheers.
Please could you list the grits you used in each stage of the sanding before you cleared it again? Or was it 800 orbital, wet and dry and then what looks like a foam backed disk for the last bit around the edges?
My tip for garage painting is when you are ready to spray stop and come back the next day. The air will be calmer and you get very few nibs.
Like these home videos 👍
Gunny have you used the Mirka Golden Finish system? Man it works nice.
Not sure if y'all have Harbor Freight over there but they have the disposable cups for $8 with the built in strainer I've been using the past year way cheaper than the name brand cups for the at home booth people
Love it Gunman, thank you! Just wondering how big your compressor is that you use at home?
Before I tweaked my spray booth, I was getting the clear cloud burning my eyes and gluing my feet to even a wet floor. I had to start wearing a full face mask and doubling the exhaust.
Hello from the uk
I watch your videos often and was wondering if you could recommend a gun for painting rc turbine jets ?
Was thinking a SRI or DV1s as most the parts are relatively small
Hope you can help
Ollie
Morning mate just curious what guns you'd rate in a bodyshop.
I've got pro lites but wanting to upgrade all my guns to some newer and better guns.
Currently using spies and glasurite and I'm stuck between use of sticking with devilbiss and getting dv1s all round or getting the sata 5500 and phaser?
When painting at home, I'll go down to my local paint supplier and order the paint based on the factory color code. Given aging will change the paint, the factory color won't match exactly. Can I ask my paint supplier to do a color match to get closer? I'm hoping not to have to blend into adjacent panels. Is that unrealistic?
Iooks really good for a home shop job. What compressor are you using?
I LOVE the 3M spray gun cleaner in a can
Sadly, I’ve been trying for days to get that 3M gun cleaner in the UK, we can’t buy it here and 3M UK refuse to stock it!! Got quoted £240 shipping for some from USA which is ridiculous
See if you can find some CRC Brakleen or something like that
@@TheGunmanChannel No worries Bud, just looks a lot easier with that stuff and less waste. I will stick with thinners for now. As you said in the vid, ideal for us home hobby painters.
Hello a question for you when you’re painting like this are you use it a fan to suck out the spray dust please send me a ancer thanks regards Adrian
IBM used to have have a marketing slogan "no one ever got fired for choosing IBM" I suspect using 3M is the same.
Hey brother do you get any neighbors complaining about paint at home about the smell Gunny thanks brother cheers
Always my fear. I’m too considerate haha
Thanks for putting the time to make these vids 👍. What fan would you recommend to use at home ?
Cheers
Hi Gunny. Watching from Edmonton, Canada. May I ask the gun setting and pressure for clearcoat please and thanks.
Is that where Jesse Stewart is from? I've been digging his music lately.
Clear settings, half turn in on fan, full fluid and 25psi. Good luck mate
I know how to paint but the problem is the unsuitable workshop and the dust.....
I would love to buy a gunman paint suit but they are way too small
How long did you wait before sanding with the orbital?
Tip: instead of $9 gun cleaner, use $3 CRC brakleen. Works great!
I had that idea but they didn't have it at Bunnings 😝
If only brakleen cost 3 dollars.
@@Neishy4AGTE $2.98 at Lowe's
@@1221Ralph it's more expensive than the gun cleaner here in Australia, I had a look.
Harbor freight has the 3m gun cleaner for like $5 with their 20% coupon (sometimes)
Dust, or water from your air system?
Is that mask enough for 2k ? I always read that 2K requires an air fed system because of Isos. (Ironically those systems cost about 2k) -
All you need for fresh air is the correct filtration. These charcoal filters are enough for 2k but fresh air is recommended.
What is the electric sander you used?
Here's a link, it's a ripper. spraygunsdirect.co.uk/product/flex-sander-ore-5-150-ec-set/ I actually did a review on it too.
How large is your home compressor ??
Any compressor review coming up?
After I do the front end of my mate's car I'll have more of an idea how it goes on bigger jobs, so I'll do it after that.
@@TheGunmanChannel fantastic
Is there a alternative to the 3M Gun Cleaner as its not available in the UK nor can it be imported from USA.. Thanks
See if you can find some brake cleaner.
@@TheGunmanChannel found a supplier in USA who is willing to post it out. If brake cleaner is as good as the 3m Gun Cleaner, will go with that as its a fraction of the price and also seems to not have as much volatile harsh substances in it. Thanks Gunny
Hey mate I just sprayed my bonnet and when I did the clear coat I got dull patches can this be fixed or do I sand it back down and start again ?
Try polishing. It's hard to say without seeing.
I’ll take a photo in the morning
What is the name and where can I get your plastic cuter??
Colad magnetic foil cutter spraygunsdirect.co.uk/product/colad-magnetic-foil-cutter/
My mate does all the prep work on his cars in his garage and then just rents a spray booth for half a day or however long he needs it to do the final painting.
In your garage you’re never going to get a dust free finish , that impossible!
Could say the same for a paint booth as well.
Удачи тибе
3M spray gun cleaner at Harbor Freight $6.99.
Why is it that when I spray it is really glossy , then when it dries it has orange peel?????
Try waiting longer between coats. That usually happens when you go too quickly. It's called solvent boil, you're not allowing the gasses to release between coats, they get trapped under the surface and pop, that gives the faded look. But there's good news, it will usually polish up. Sand it with 2,000 then 3,000 then polish.
@@TheGunmanChannel I am waiting 20mins between coats. I've had solvent pop before when I applied 2 x heavy coats in a row. It appeared within 20mins. Since then I learnt to only apply one heavy coat at the end. It looks great for a couple of hours, then the next day, orange peel. Maybe my hardener is too slow as the temperature was about 21 degrees 🤔
