- In this video I get the truck painted "dead rat flat black" which is an Eastwood color and I love it. A lot of work went into this and this was my first time painting a vehicle!! I think the results are pretty good!! Also, show all the products I used and the true cost of a backyard paint job! Hope you enjoy the video.
Great job!! I have done something similar on 2 trucks, just recently a 1973 K10. Same deal welding holes and sanding. I used SPI black epoxy primer on it. 4 coats on the truck and 4 to 5 coats on the underside and frame. Then I sprayed black Fluid Film on the whole underside and inside all the body panels. It's a lot of work and money. You did a great job of really explaining the process for someone who might want to tackle this. I did it outside as well and just a warning to anyone watch for overspray. It can ruin your day if your not careful. Again great video !!
Thank you!! JD
I always love your style!!! I love the very real list of supplies. No fancy spread sheet.
Thank you John!!! Always appreciate your feedback Sir! JD
Great work and like you said it’s a perfect paint that your not spending thousands on and worry about scratching it and You can enjoy the truck more !
I agree!! I will enjoy this truck a lot more since it's not "perfect." She will be nice and reliable by the time I'm done but I love the rugged look of the flat black with a few dings and dents in it!! JD
I have painted many old work trucks to try to make them look decent ! It takes a lot of time and patience to get all the wavy gravys out of them . Do what makes you happy 😜
Thank you Sir!! JD
I rattle caned a truck a few years ago that had a great body.After a day I took green Scotch pads and lightly dragged them front to back like sand paper and it turned out great.
I was tempted to rattle can it but I chose not to! JD
Awesome Awesome Awesome. You’re spot on with the price. I painted my 85 white k10 in my garage and I probably spent $1500 on paint and supplies. The little things really add up. I raptorlined inside bed white and it came out great. Highly recommend! Thanks for the great content! CZcams White k10 2” lift and throw in a like for me! Cheers!
Thank you Sir! How did you get to $1500?? Just curious. I plan to line x the bed as I had this done to my Jeep tub and was very happy with the results. How has the raptor lining held up? Thank you for the feedback and comment!! JD
@@JDOffline bought same supplies as you but Urechem instead. Bought a 200$ gun and I went base coat/clear. Had to buy epoxy as well as I had bare metal spots. Then add the 100 for high build. It all just added up quick. I sprayed the raptorliner 3 days ago so no results yet. But, the reviews are really good. 140$ for that short bed is just enough. 4 quarts
@@joshuakeith8710 It does add up quickly!! Let me know how that raptor liner holds up. Once I get my truck reassembled I'm taking it to Line x to have it sprayed on the bed and bed rails. I'll dig into the raptor liner a little more though before I do!
@@JDOffline I’m not sure anything would beat line-x. That stuff is indestructible.
@@joshuakeith8710 I used it quite a bit on my jeep (tub, bumpers etc) and it has held up well. Check it out on my channel, my jeep build!! JD
Those orbital air sanders are awesome
Yes they are awesome and honestly this one was a cheapy from amazon and it held up well and sanded the whole truck. Thanks for checking out the video. JD
Just finished the video today. Matt is kinda like a superhero!! And wife of the year has been locked up by Kelly and we are only six days in to the new year.
You should see me in my cape!
Agreed Sir!! Wife of the year goes to Kelli!
And the paint job looks great!!! Well done sir!!
Thanks John! When are you painting your Jeep??
@@JDOffline I hope to have some movement on the jeep over the next few months. Fingers crossed.
looks awesome! excited to see whats next!
Thank you Mel. I've had some weather set backs and had Covid last week but the next video should come out this week. Thanks for checking out the channel. JD
Never a dull moment on this truck build, glad you were able to catch/extinguish that welding fire before any major damage. The truck is looking great with that dead rat black (I got a kick out of that paint name).
Thanks Jay, once I get this thing back together I'll be able to drive it and then will return to the Camaro build!! Dead Rat Flat Black!! JD
you did a really good job for your first time
Thank you Jacob, we really put a lot into the prep and I did a lot of study and homework before attempting this. I was really happy with the result. I hope the hood and fenders (still to paint) turn out as good! JD
I think you and the family did a great job.
The fire 💔😢. Glad it was contained.
That is about average price for paint supplies. Depending on the vehicle, I'm between 500 and 1500 for supplies. I'll probably be around 2000 for Frankie 😖. It's so dang long!
Thanks. I agree and just wanted to show the real cost of painting. So many videos say you can do it for $99 or $50 and that's just not true. I'm glad I had the help of the family for sure, I don't think I would have finished on the same time line. We need a Frankie update!! JD
Good enough for who it’s for I always say. Looks decent from here though.
Not sure how to take that comment. Haha. It actually looks decent for my first time. Thanks for checking out the video. JD
I am no ways near a bodyman, Thanx...Tim.
I'm not a body man either Tim! JD
D I Y the only way to learn how to. Grate Job
Thank you Sir!! It was a great experience for sure. JD
I agree with you Kevin! You can't put a price on the satisfaction you get from doing a job like this yourself. Isn't there a saying about painting a car..."an amateur who cares can do as good a job as a professional who doesn't".
Time to re-carpet and add new upholstery. In all seriousness, it's looking good.
Thanks Ed!
Awesome truck man, I have an 87 Scottsdale k10 and need a front bumper, any idea where the one you had came from?
It's a home made bumper that I took off and worked pretty extensively on (check out video on my channel). When I got done welding it up and adding the loop I had it sprayed with Line X . Couldn't have turned out getter in my opinion. It started as C channel and was cut and bent to fit the truck by the previous owner. JD
@@JDOffline oh that’s sweet man, I’m definitely gonna check that video out because I’d rather not order one for $400 if I can make one for cheaper, thanks for the heads up tho👍
JD, did you consider Maaco paint, just wondering
I hear Raptor-liner is a great product for you bed.
Chrome don’t get you home 🤪
Note to self, don’t do the interior work until you finish welding and paint 🤔
I’m kinda liking the “RED” 🤪
How many Bud-Lights did you go through ?
Mike I took your advice to not make it too nice!! I agree with you. Never even thought of Maaco paint but probably a great alternative. I plan to have the bed sprayed with Line X due to the good experience I had with Line X on my Jeep. I agree with you the raptor lining is probably the best DIY bed liner out there. Thanks Mike for your continued support!! JD
how did you get the area behind the cab and the bed ?
I didn't. It was mostly overspray but I didn't move the bed. JD
@JDOffline thanks buddy I really appreciate it, lookin at painting my 85 silverado black, it's white right now
@@MrMechanicalMonstrosity it would prob look better if you move the bed. Good luck on painting it. Mine really turned out ok. Prep was the part that was brutal. JD
Where did you get the inner fenders?
LMC truck!
