Very good, simple to follow, and informational. I bought 3 paint products (base paint, pearl paint and some medium reducer) to paint a small area on my wife's SUV. The paint vendor was very vague about what to mix and how much. You video made it all very easy to understand, and why the ratio are what they are. Thank you very much!

@Mechaniclyfe
3 жыл бұрын
Depending , you can use either epoxy or self etch to bare metal. With some epoxy primers you can go straight to Basecoat, but there is a window to be able to do that, after that window it must be sanded Before applying Basecoat. High build primer can be used for Body panels that had body work done. If the panel is nice and flat with no dents, you could even use a sealer before applying Basecoat or sand and apply Basecoat right on top of the original paint as long as the paint wasn’t peeling .again depends on surface and body work needed.
