How to Spray BASE COAT and CLEAR COAT at Home With (Professional) Results

In this video I show how I prepare and spray this 1960 Chevrolet impala hood for show car paint. This is a home-built booth that my buddy Jerry built from scratch. The booth is made from wood 2x4s and plywood. This 1960 impala is going to be sprayed back to the original color which is roman red in a base coat clear coat. Ill list the base coat below that we used in this video. My buddy Kenith supplied this X prime color. Ill link his YouTube channel below, shoot him a comment if interested in the paint and make sure to subscribe to his channel. If you have any questions shoot me a comment and make sure to like and subscribe.

I know you said you’re using a 1.3 fluid tip what air cap do you like for base and clear? I’ve always sprayed single stage and used 1.4.

Thank you for your professionalism, I like your way of painting, but can I kindly call you how to set the gun, the pressure and the amount of paint. Thank you

Do you increase the air on clear coat and why is that ?

[ogreunderbridge]

Slight problem at my location. Tack rags are not usual to come by at my retailers. Only one of my local online´s I know carries them and they often come short in supply. What would be second best alternatives for last dust clean ?

This is a great video thanks for the tips! How long are you usually waiting for the base to dry before clear?

If I was to paint my car, orange and then put a coat of hot red WA130x pull me over red paint on top of that orange do you think that might possibly give the red just a little bit of an orange tint to it?

What happens when you get a ruff finish is there a fix

What kind of paint gun is that I never saw a black one

[JohnnyWilliams-xr]

How come you don't wet sand in between coats

[jaredwike]

Looks good! What was the flash time between last red coat and first clear coat?

[DentFreeImagePeterVega]

Great job and explanation!
What is the temperature range of the DCX61 hardner?
I am waiting for the temperature to be around 70 to 75 to spray a VW van project using PPG 2021 clear with the DCX8 medium hardener.
I’m new to this and hope it doesn’t dry too fast for my slow speed.
I will first spray the bolt on panels and at another day spray the body.
Will be using inflatable booth.
Thanks for the help!

What kind of spray gun do you use sir? I’m wanting to paint my 72 Chevy c10 and a rookie novice so any ideas or tips please share them with me . I don’t want it to look like a backyard science project when I’m done
