In younger years we'd paint our cars with what we called the 100 dollar paint job. A gallon of tremclad on sale, any old sand paper will do that's on sale, grab a gallon of varsol and give 'er. Well, in the end at least it was all one color. We'd all be back slapping each other saying oh ya that's really cool.....lol.

My Dad use to do that Use the Tremclad then add in Reducer to thin it out so that it could spray through the spray nozzle he painted his old Chevelle SS $11 paint job and it came out So Shinny like a Mirror, he didn't use a garage he did it on a very hot Sunny Day in the backyard, I remember with in 1 hour it was totally Dried to touch.

Swank. Nice job, Hermano. I don't give a flying blank about the orange peel if it's one tenth the cost of a cheap pro job and it's keeping the rust (and bored troopers) away. That's 1800 bucks worth of shocks and bushings and tires and a carb and bearings and filters and brakes... Besides a lot of orange peel is nowhere near as embarrassing as "Authentic Patina" (Nausea).

Humidifier?
@PandorasFolly7 күн бұрын
@@ikonik6286 yeah. Wetting down a floor keeps you from kicking up any dust and makes the paint job smoother. Most basic thing you can do is prepare your space the night before get everything ready and then soak the floor. Then first thing when you are ready to pain soak the floor again. Gently though. The humidifier reduces static by alot, that and the water being absorbed by airborne particles helps the particles fall out of the air. Start it up the night before as well. The fog machine does the same thing but on turbo and will get rid of anything left over.

Paint is ok just the compressor and the gun needed a little tweaking and a slower thinner would have of helped a lot but it does not forgive drips, if it has enough clear and get wet sanded and buffed it can be turned into a show finish. Anyways all these little first time mistakes are tuition for the next time, truck looks amazing and most importantly it didn't cost much.

@@wickedgunguys8144 i know it was painted very accurately without the need to go over and over again or overspray it so to create drips, but some people rather use and suggest slow thinner/reducer especially if you are not familiar with it so to give it the time to sit evenly and cover by its self, but in my experience so far i paint cars outside i prefer to use something that depending on the weather gets the paint on it to dry quickly enough to be just wet so the overlap merges the paint that is being sprayed to the one that is already sprayed, if i can't touch it in 2 minutes anything more than that without painting in a paint booth has done more harm than good in my cases. Btw if you want even cheaper paint and can get ahold of nitro lacquer you can use that to paint a car, you can mix it pearl, metals etc as normally and create an awesome paint job, and it fills imperfections by its self and is 1/3 of the car paint price at least in Europe, but i strongly suggest to use a clear coat. Used it to paint cars for many years but without a clear it fades faster than enamel under the sun.
