I don't use the uv fillers , since we have the old globe lights not the led stuff , and yes you can go blind from them if you stare into it across the room , i also burnt my arm a couple of times to feel if its dry while the lights where still on . We use uv primer on the smaller jobs or if its going to be painted the same day
Great video on the future of autobody . This game changer and will increase productivity in a shop so much and less stress on a tech. There no waiting around just keep working . The pros out weigh the cons idk only con I can think of is its sounds spendy but it'll pay for itself really quickly
I’m not a body man but I do some nice things here and there, sometimes for other people. You convinced me on the UV but BUT $1000 for the lamp…did I get that right?! I guess it is not in my future. Shock must be the theme of the day? Checked out ‘merch’ and VAT is nearly 20% - that’s shocking to someone in the US. (I know that’s not The Gunman doing that so sit back down….)
@@martinl4565What product are you using? I'm thinking about doing the same 395nm 50watt UV light from ebay or something, those $3800 handheld guns what gunny has are apparently 55watt...
We have used uv filler and primer for the last couple of years. Question, do you find the base coat lays down slightly different on the primer? I’m taking very minimal but on some silvers and pearls you can see a shadow like it’s not covered. We’ve used PPG, glasurit and for cost mipa, they all do it. Seems to me that it’s more sealed and the paint sits more on the surface. Spoke with all the reps and showed them, not much feed back. Here in the uk UV doesn’t seem to be push much.
@@kevinhekers2380 hey guys, in glasurit there is a wet on wet sealer primer coat before base coats are applied, does it still "bleed" through as mentioned? I suspect the wet on wet primer is designed to cover this and leave a good base for grounds and base coating - Im not a painter but did try out the trade for a while thanks
UV fillers are not for me. I’ve had them demo’d and just didn’t see the point. 1. Buy a lamp that’s a fortune to dry it 2. Can only put it on thinly. 3. More expensive. 4. Doesn’t save time really in my eyes. Other options available for same results with 2 pac products. Use good quality fillers and you don’t get pin holes if you know how to mix it right.
You might catch up one day and when you do you'll wish you did years ago. It's a game changer, no shrink back and lightning fast repairs. So what if you have to do 2-3 fills for a deep repair when it takes 15 seconds to dry. Don't be the old sick in the mud who gets left behind.
@@SGSAutomotive you may be surprised, I know some guys from the UK who are all in on UV tech. Nuva fillers are the best on the market and I like the small specular light partly because it's affordable. But it's small, easy to use and can buy rechargeable batteries cheaply, it doesn't require proprietary batteries increasing repair costs. Probably around £500 specular UV, the guy is from Thailand.
Enjoy watching you’re show and learning other techniques👍

Awesome again Gunny

Have a nice weekend Pro Regards from Holland
Thanks, very informative.
Awesome!👌
Hello my friend! I was wondering: Where can I find and buy (To PR, US) your edition of the Devilbiss Gti Pro Lite (Green color) Thank You! Exito!
Unfortunately we don't have any available at the moment. I'm really hoping to get another edition made.
@@TheGunmanChannel Oh Crap! I always wanted the green one (favorite color) but waited too long... / Hope so too

But you can disregard the VAT if you're from the USA.
I am using a 90usd 395nm uv light from ali. Works well with the product I use.

I recall seeing that with one brand we used to use Metalux but not any others
Some uv primers bleed through silvers the lesonal and sikkens don't , they also sand the best in my opinion

And the amount of use I get out of the nuva, it would absolutely work out cheaper, because you use it all. Any word xcess you put back in the tub
Price$?

Did you hear about the youtuber "the triggerman" 🤣
You can just drive the car out of the garage/shed/shop the sun dumps out UV radiation
