    Yep more like this please. Clear and to the point. I have heard once before about the mix and sit , but told not to bother. Thanks for clearing that up. It makes perfect sense to do so.

    I painted my first car 35 years ago, this epoxy has certainly changed the game

    looks nice i do use isopropyl alcohol for a final wipe down using white or light colored rags until the rags stay clean no more grime coming off as advised from watching other posts

      That will work too, but I do not find it necessary at this stage. To each their own, this is at the end of the day just want I do and find works for me.
      I find introducing any wash/solvents will increases the chances of little fluff balls being caught up in the keyed up surface when being applied/removed with rags/cloths.

    I'm happy you mentioned mixing the epotec 15 mins or so in advance to begin the chemical reaction. Glad im not the only one, but I wonder why the TDS doesn't call for it? Great vid, keep them coming.

    • @TheRestoShed
      @TheRestoShed  Před rokem +2

      Not sure why the TDS doesn’t mention it, but I suppose it probably doesn’t warrant it in their testing facilities.
      Thanks for watching

    A stretch bungee cord and add a hook to the panel holder base so you have proper mil thickness. Just my 2cents.

    Great video, do you have any product recommendations for weld through primer (or any to stay away from)?

    • @TheRestoShed
      @TheRestoShed  Před rokem +3

      I prefer to use Upol #2 on MIG plug welds. But it is important to only use it on the overlapped seams, it is NOT a primer and cannot be painted over.

      Hiya Shane not sure where you are but in the UK Halfords do a weld through primer that I've seen on a channel called Dave's Garage he's restoring a MK1 escort and he tested various weld through primers this cane out on top as the best he had a piece of scrap metal that's been sitting outside for over a year and has no rust under the coating at all unlike other products he tested hope it helps?

    Thanks for the effort you put in for these videos!
    Interesting that you rub the phosphoric coating off before epoxy, Howard from Astill Design has a video with PPG & they say to leave it on under the epoxy.
    Obviously your method will be fine because you’re spraying it straight away but interesting all the same. 👍

      Thanks for watching.
      I use a different epoxy to Howard although both are (now) PPG branded.
      Personally I’ve had catastrophic delamination issues in the past following the same process show albeit less the sanding of the phosphate coating before epoxying (as had many other when I questioned what I’d done wrong!)
      So now I just do a panel at a time and get it in epoxy ASAP after abrading the surface.

    Sweet,back on the You Tube horse mate. With some handy tips for hackers,such as myself.
    How long could you leave 2k in the gun for with catastrophic situations.
    Cheers

      Really depends on what paint you’re spraying, you’ll have to check the ‘pot life’ in the technical data sheet.
