Alll that work , then rattle cans??
Good lesson mario 🇯🇲 Jamaica to the world 👍🏿
You are so easy to follow. It’s like automotive Sesame Street, thank you for explaining everything you do🤘🏼
This guy has to be a virgo, perfectionist down to a T, but it's amazing I love it, so helpful.
I HAVN'T PAINTED A CAR FOR YEARS, BUT I DID LEARN, NO ONE TOLD ME THAT HUGE SECRET, THEY MAKE A RETARDER TO SLOW THE FLASH OVER TIME, SO NO ORANGE PEEL.
ANOTHER THING I LEARNED WAS TO USE MINWAX CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER BASE CLEAR. IT'S VERY CHEAP AND LOOKS GREAT AND LASTS IN THE WEATHER. WORKS GREAT ON BOATS. TRY IT, YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID.
PS: WHERE DO YOU FIND $350 ACURAS.
Ok
One of the problems I have run in to Paint cans that came with the tall blue fan spray valves, do not work with krylon sprayers, you were right a compressor spaying would have been about thd same cost, and much faster too.
Dude, YOU WON!!! The worst work I have seen. You need to watch other youtubers how to spray clear coat. While you are at it, watch more videos here BEFORE you post such work!
