I was a painter for 30 years and I’m very impressed. You take more of the proper steps then a lot of shops that are out there.
"Ain't It The Truth".... And the car painters I've met, Don't Look Like Sarah!! If they did, the line to get our car painted would be Huge.
Agreed
@@Chiroman527 🤣 hahahahaha true
"This is the last day in the vlog I promise" you say that as if its a bad thing for us. We love it
Agreed 👍
My name is Dennis to 😅😅
The attention to detail you have is mind boggling. Nice touch making the peace symbol with the tape over the engine bay
You put your heart and soul in your cars Sarah. This is what makes your videos so worth seeing!. Doing a great job.
Whoever gets this car is gonna be so stoked. The amount of work and detail you are putting into this project is ridiculous. Can't wait till it's done. Great video.
And every step of it is documented. Can't ask for better than that
Im not saying you are over the top OCD paint prepping,but yes you are very very thorough and the best paint job is mostly the prep so we know you’re getting a great paint job and you are the smartest and best looking mechanical specialist I’ve ever seen,top shelf Sarah!
Don’t ever change, Sarah! There is no other CZcamsr that I would rather watch.
Sarah, you really don’t need to apologize for being yourself. We know how you are and we are good with that. It’s why we watch you, plus you are fun!
Sarah is one hard working lady.Superwoman well done.
I don’t even like Volkswagens but I want that Volkswagen it’s gonna be better than the factory did. You’re doing doing a great job
Working on cars is always a "learn as you go" process. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride Sarah.
Man that bug's going to be in better shape than it was straight out of the factory. Another excellent Sarah build. Love it!
The winner of Ragnar is getting such a detailed rebuild!!
Awesome!!
Before you go any further do a tape test on various areas using your masking tape and rip it off to check adhesion. You don't want to do body work and find out that your epoxy is not adhered. Not many people have the patients to do a proper job, they think paint hides bad work and it does to a point until it flies off. Excellent work !!!
I love the commitment to safety. That air fed hood is so legit.
The Peace-Sign at 8:27 was a nice '69 touch.
That's a hard working woman. Thanks for sharing with us. :)
Sarah, I watch lots of vehicle restoration You Tubes and honestly your work is on par with Chip Foose, Counts Customs and Motor Car Garage. But you do all the work yourself. I can’t believe how much of yourself you put into your work. You are an inspiration. Your videos make my day. Thank you.
Ragnar is going to be one special car, but I’d expect no less. Is so nice having the guys next door has worked out so well for you
Hi Bob. The guys next door have a you tube channel. I think it's called U-wrench. It's very informative.
@@waynegouin939 yes. They have great content.
We all knew Bare Metal Resto was coming. We are not disappointed. The attention to getting the work right shows in the results and the time taken. Ragnar's new evolution is going to be a whole new life, and it's starting with the best care possible.
Great progress. I can see that you are putting heart into this project and I know you will not disappoint. The end result is going to be beautiful.
Sarah lives in the magic realm where it rains and hails one day and is 110 deg the next. It kinda suits her. Beautiful, if not obsessive, work on the Vdub. I wouldn't really expect anything else. She is amazing.
Obsessive.
Your New England work ethic really shines thru on your projects.
Love how you go to far, way farther than you planned. My daughter loves the beetle and can’t wait to see it finished
First shot of the new respirator hood in pristine white: Nuns In Space, a blockbuster coming to a theater near you.
My goodness woman! I am beginning to think you are the very definition of the word “tenacious”.
Here in the U.K we have just suffered temperatures in the 90’s. You beaver away on a daily basis in heat we can only imagine.
More power to your elbow dear! X
Painting is an art and I think you did a very good job figuring out what was wrong and then correcting it.
"They absolutely destroy your whistle-biscuit with a quickness." That has the be the best sentence I have heard this year. Thank you.
As I recall, the cars were originally dipped in paint…took minutes. I think we now know why they were dipped. You’re doing a fantastic job‼️‼️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Another above and beyond love it, You have to be the hardest working CZcamsr especially in that heat,wishing you much success, Hope the winner of your VW Bug appreciates the work you have in on it.
love Sarah's goofy sense of humour
You should also mention all the awesome work Fred is doing to the Focus, I'm really liking those videos on his channel!
In 1985 and on, I had a yellow 1969 1600cc VW bug. great memories in that car with friends . loved it.
Gotta love the tucson weather, over hundred one minute, hailing the next. Very nice job, keep it up!!
That is a crazy amount of prep work but like you mentioned in your notes a good paint job rests on how good the prep job is. I'm finding all that work and painting methods that you are showing very informative. Thank you for sharing all of this. Have a good one and have fun take care
Damn. So much work. It’s constantly amazing watching you tackle such a huge variety of automotive projects and challenges.
Great job. I have a Ford van to paint white right now. Love to see relatable content.
Excited to see a VW getting so much love! EXCELLENT work!
Whoever wins this car is going to be so stoked, after all the work going into it, it's going to be a jewel.
The hail reminds me I'm out of Jiffy Pop.
I'm impressed. Great job. You never cut corners. You have to be the hardest working person on youtube. Thank you for your time.
Sarah, I'm always so impressed with your focus to detail (probably because I'm so ADD I'd probably get halfway through and walk away to chase that lizard in the tree) . Also, you said you forgot to stir the paint... I think once it hits 103+, you are allowed to forget a few things! Keep up the great work/videos.
I also love, love!! peeling of masking paper...its the BIG reveal thats so grand
Sarah,
Repeat after me: “Paint products are to be stirred and otherwise mixed thoroughly. Varnish is to be stirred slowly and with great deliberation to avoid any hint of an air bubble.” Lucretia Borgia
Keep the aspidistra flying!

Hi my name is Steve my dad was killed in the Air Force in 1964 and I just love watching you stuff because I'm not a Freakazoid or anything like that but I just love the Air Force I wish you well thank you for serving our country
2:51 / 16:45: so a old school way of sanding inside of the vents is this. Get metal cloth hangers. You need to measure about 3-4 ½ inches. Cut the metal hangers. Bend the tip part a believe 1 ½ inch. Then get sandpaper and cut long strips. Place front and back sand paper. Making sure the grit do the papers are facing up to sand the metal vents. Pinch the bent hook on the metal hanger in the middle of the sandpapers. After you have a lot of these done. Place the metal homemade sandpaper strips in a drill. Lock them down in the drill. And place the sandpaper in the vent groves carefully. Then apply power and let the sandpaper do its magic.
I was in my late teens in the late 70s. Dad and I would buy late model wrecked cars and fix them up. Dad had enough air pressure to paint a panel on a car but not enough to paint an entire car. But we had a friend who owned a body shop who would paint an entire car for us for $100-150 (remember, 1979 dollars) IF we brought it in ready to paint (primered & all taped up) and supplied the paint. Couldn't beat that deal with a stick and he was the best painter in northeast Neb. Dad was a good painter too, but part of his success was the prep work we did beforehand.
Heavy rain and hail is relaxing to listen to!
Awesome Job Sarah. We love the content. Love your intros.
Sarah -n Tuned the Queen of Detailing!
CAR PAINT 90% Preparation, 10% Application. Sarah, you are doing great.
i so love your humor such confidence when saying, i love watching you all the time, your are such a beautiful soul need more like you !!!!
Ah yes, I was just thinking that thought ... a beautiful soul. True, true
Sarah, the more I watch this channel, the more impressed I am with you. You are an amazing person with extreme attention to detail and it shows when you are done. These cars and Grams Ranger are better than they were when they left the factory. I love your sense of humor. Even 6 sanding videos would be interesting just to hear your comments and see what trouble the Penguins get into.
This bug project is thoroughly enjoyable to watch
Your attention to detail is, as always, impressive. This is going to be one of the cleanest looking Beetles around I would bet.
You definitely deserve a nice cold after all that time in the paint booth. Stay cool!
PS Love the bg music while doing the montages, especially one of the other recent beetle vids was a kind of 1960's surf rock vibe, definitely fits.
New nothing about the unmixed epoxy until you mentioned it, but your quick thinking and hard work saved the job. Your work ethic and professionalism always has a way of overcoming any speed bumps along the way. Good video content and the epoxy looked top notch IMO. ✅
Omg Sarah you kill me 😂 seriously though, prepping for painting is indeed a major pain in the ass!
Those clouds are called mammatus. They are pockets of cold sinking air.
Какой в этот раз многообразный сюжет получился!)) В одном видео столько всего, и космонавт, и град на беззащитные машины, и Джейсон Момоа на умняке что то по железу определял!)) Что то давно не было видно nice dog and sister. Удивила сухая футболка в +40° девушки не потеют так. Ждём с нетерпением last video.))
This is being 'thorough' on another scale! Sure would put some professional body shops to shame! I thought this wasn't going to be a full on restoration Sarah, yeah right?
Yupp, you were lucky getting the Bronco inside ...or perhaps it was positive Karma huh! Love your spirit, you always manage to make me chuckle. Great choice of music btw, any chance you could list the pieces that you used. 👍😎
I agree, her music choices are always ,as they say, " On point ".
The "Time-lapse Dance" while painting the engine cover, EPIC! 🤩
Sarah you are the hardest working lady I've seen , there is a new name for quality its called Sarah
Hail typically doesn't cause vehicle damage until it gets closer to an inch in diameter. If you're driving in it, maybe a bit smaller on the new cars.
Sarah, I am soooo impressed with your dedication to moving the camera to just the right spot for each scene. I love the reveal of you in the car removing the paper from the windscreen! I know how much work it is to constantly move the camera for the best angle, and yet you just keep honing your craft. To do as much content as you do with as much technical skill, not only working on cars, but filming and editing is simply astounding and I'm sure that your almost 1/2 MILLION subscribers appreciate it as much as I do!
I only have 2 years body shop experience. So thank you for teaching me more. Its one of my favorite things to do.
1:50 "Disassemble"--Sarah-n-Tuned. "No disassemble"--Number Five.
I love the detail you go into and the fact you don't hide what goes wrong it's a teachable moment for you and the viewers. That car will look amazing when finished.
Back in the 70's my Dad worked in Togo, Africa and my Mum and I used to visit him during the summers. Most of the cars were Toyotas and Ford Escorts and most of them were bright white in colour. Unfortunately they rusted pretty quickly due to the humid, salty air which showed through the white paint. There was a whole industry of painting over the rust for dealers who sold used cars. Usually to unsuspecting foreigners.
The fast forward painty dance was ace!
You are so entertaining it makes this seem easy and we all know it's not. I love watching you. I'm glad you got the Bronco in before the hail storm. Ragnar is going to be awesome. I can't to see the finished product. Love all your vids. Keep them coming.
Sarah your the only model mechanic in the world!!!!
When I have to bike in the afternoon heat sometimes I fill a camelback halfway with water, freeze it while it's laying flat and then fill the rest with water. Then I have ice water to drink and actual ice against my back for a while. Don't know if you can fit a camelback in your paint suit or not, but it's definitely one way to keep cool!
Love your show -- especially the witty intro 's -- this VW Bettle is going to look superb -- can't wait to see her finished -- slightly bulging mag wheels will add some muscle power to the looks ???
You are absolutely correct, madam, prep makes the paint job. So glad you gave yourself the mixing lesson on primer n not paint!🙎♀I'm following Fred too so I'll see the body work on Ragnar same as on the Focus!
Beside your knowledge and experience and picky about your job doing you are so fun to work with you honestly keep up a good work as always
Sarah…… it takes as long as it takes….. I sanded, prepped, sanded some more, oh and I sanded again…. Painted my VDub Jetta MK1 GLI (and I didn’t change the color!)……. IT TOOK 4EVER! … but and again, you’re authentic and STAY THAT WAY, because it takes as long as it takes! You can’t rush art end of story and I love your “next day” segways anyways so …. Stop making excuses for something which doesn’t need one excuse to begin with!
I remember the hail when I lived in Tucson. We used to have iceball fights afterwarrds.
"You wore out my Whistle Bisket ! " ...She said that. 😇😁
Nice work. Cleanliness is close to godliness in paint prep. When you think you have it clean enough, go over it a couple more times.
When you (eventually) get to the motor you need to rig some sort of button or switch in the dash to put it into 'schport` mode! Even if it doesn't do anything it would be a nice & unique Sarah upgrade.
Better yet -- BEV conversion.
When you stuck your head through the paper, "Here's Johnny" a la Jack Nicholson in The Shining. I laugh so hard when you amuse yourself.
Manufacturers for sure use different grade steel depending on the price point they are aiming at. My VW Eos was parked right next to a Subaru Impreza in a hail storm and the Subaru was trashed afterward and the Eos had 3 dings that the PDR guy removed easily. BTW, love your work! 🙂
Hey Sarah...How are you? You Make Videos that make Cars Fun to Work on. You give a newb like me Hope. Have Fun With Ragnar!
Wow, very nice beetle I love it! I know this car would do very well on our Jamaican roads.❤
The louvers, or vents you were using the little biscuit on, try doing that by hand with folded up 80 grit sandpaper. I've had to do it that way numerous times when I was an autobody/painter. Also I am so glad that you wore a paint suit and respirator while spraying epoxy primer. I learned the hard way that inhaling epoxy primer gives you a migraine headache, and asthma symptoms which lead to a small yet very painful heart attack. Yup, happened to me 30 some years and since then I will not spray paint anything without a respirator on. As coughing up epoxy primer from your lungs is painful and disgusting.
Wow....hope you recovered okay!
@@betteheadbettehead4800 I recovered just fine, but I can't use epoxy primer anymore.
Even in a well ventilated paint boothe, I get sick from just the smell of it. But it's the best stuff to use on bare metal. Because you can put body fillers over it and it will stay on the vehicle.
@@davidbruin4381 Your experience reminds me of this: I worked for years as an industrial chemist and one part of the building had isocyanate research. They're used to make rigid foam such as the foam that goes inside refrigerator doors. There were warning signs posted everywhere because isocyanates could make some people go into severe respiratory distress. The problem is, one doesn't know until exposed to the chemicals. Serious stuff!! I'm glad you're okay!
@@betteheadbettehead4800 I had that happen to me over 30yrs ago and just the smell of epoxy primer will trigger an asthma type of response to it. And it doesn't have to be epoxy primer, it's anything that smells like it.
Sometimes memory sucks.
Whole new appreciation for when I go to the local paint/body dude
Lol you and the other half of the world are getting our Aussie summers we had a few years ago when we had the fires . Since then we have had cold summers and our winters cold aswel . We love 40c i used to work at olympic dam at roxby downs and it used to be over 50c and dry . Now thats hot . Just drink lots of water .
Making great progress... wish I could travel to the future and binge watch all episodes...
Borrow or buy a couple of those panel stands for your own workshop so as to not have to work on the ground when prepping doors, fenders, hoods etc... so handy for prep and assemble, adding trim, sanding, buffing etc... working on the ground is not a good idea, for both the panels and your back...
Those cheap plastic folding saw horses make for good fender and panel stands too.
Oooo, Iwata spray gun...I've been using their airbrushes for years, very reliable.
Canada says "Hi!" right back at you too. From Ottawa, Ontario.
Sarah is a certified metalhead in more ways than ☝️
I can't belive how much work she is putting into this thing, it really makes me appreciate paint and body work!
we all know your attention to detail, but when you were taping around the corner and it didnt lay "right" so you took up that bit of tape to redo it was SO SARAH!
when you were painting, I saw that you had the air backpack, I hope that kept you a little bit cooler! we dont want to see you Fall out in the paint booth! :)
I really envy whoever gets Ragnar, that is going to be one SWEET Machine!
well done sarah, you never disappoint. keep up the excellent work.
It's so relaxing seeing you work.
Your can-do attitude inspiers me to dare fix things on my own car by myself and thereby save money on repair-bills! Thanks!
I had a used '69, same white color that you are going for. Mine had red seats and door cards. Great car.
Insane prep for the epoxy especially in that heat! This paint job should look good for decades to come. Love your content !
Sarah, always mix your paint! It's always a great day when you learn something new. Great vids.
Last time I was this early was 9 months before my daughter was born!
Epoxy is very definitely affected by the heat, several brands of epoxy even have different "hardeners (Activators)" that one uses based on the ambient temperature, some will never harden below 40ºF, others will have too short a "pot life" above 100ºF.
