When I started painting when I was 13 I called that braille when I used the tac-rag on the doors for blend but as time went and learning from my dad RIP I got super good my father showed me how to spray single stage, raptor liner, laquer, acrylic enamel, solvent and waterborne and how to hide colors with body lines and shadows
I was spraying dark silver metallic and it was mottled, rough on the tack cloth and after 4 coats I gave up. Emailed Brian. He replied right away and told me exactly what he said in this video. I wet sanded with 800. I switched to slow reducer and it was only 70 degrees. I resprayed (also using DV1 gun at 15-16) and it was so easy....just like Brian said. My last coat (I call a mist or dust coat) was also into a wet coat and it just helped unify the metal flakes a little bit. This is a keeper of a video Brian. Thank you.
Fantastic! Glad it did work out for you!
Stop spraying solvent, spray water wet on wet drop walk away
Hi Brian, I’m no expert but I’ve restored my charger in my home garage and painted it jet black 90 percent of what I know I’ve learned from your videos! I’ve won 2 first place awards with my charger this year! The paint work is beautiful! Thanks for all your tips
Well you are an expert now! 😀😀
You the man Brian
"Yours won't say Brian", that was a good one!
As always it looks beautiful. Silver is definitely a tough color to master. You nailed it. Enjoy your evening.
Thank you Jim
you are the master of auto painting love your channel,learned alot during the years watching thanks
Thanks for watching all these years
Looks good! That clear base is a life saver on silvers and golds!!
I just been using my clear base as a sealer on like jobs where you have a tight blend,
1 coat over your primer and into your blend areas, takes 1-2 more coats of paint to cover but works good, nice and smooth
Yes. This works great!
Sealer is a must, no reactions,paint bonds better over the sealer, easier coverage!
Hey, thats the same car I'm about to re-paint Silver Satin Metallic! Lol. Super helpful!
Glad I could help!
Once again a great job Brian... Keep up the great work
You gotta love this channel!😊
For Every paint job I have, I always find a video that relates to my work, and I always find inspiration in these videos.
Thank you, Paint Society!
Awesome. !
I can’t believe that the day I find your channel is the day you post a video about the same car in the same color that I own
Great break down and tips. 😎
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Brian I REALLY APPRECIATE this video
Looks great! I'm just getting into a metallic job on our '38 restoration. It's a full spray, so no blending, but still a big job!
Awesome job Brian!!
such a helpful video ! thank you for your hard work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I do the same as you when it comes to blending color I angle my gun and kinda do a staircase pattern
Orherwise its bad. I can always see my blend
nice blend,good painting.
Nice work Brian! I would be proud to own that car! 🙏👌
Great video!!!, if people only knew how long it takes to make it look that good ,people have have no real clue!!! We have had paint reps do a demo,and run into trouble,!!! Thanks again!!!
We know more then the reps. We are in the trenches everyday
Good job brian
Watching from Philippines
Thanks
Thanks for the confidence builder Brian, I am that guy of five years ago, today.... lol

Great vid as usual, as for melting in a sealer edge, I’ve always used my high temp reducer(95+) turn the psi down and wet it in, how ever you have to be careful cause the reducer will make the edges run.
Yes. Thats a great way!
great job brian
Great job!!!
Brian I’d love to see you do a complete job using Summitracing paint supplies!
Love your work brother…
I would lower spray pressure by 5lbs, pull away spray distance by three inches on the "drop coat" a use the "X-pattern" on the blends. great vid
Like to see you try a single stage silver. Not easy to blend and have any shine
Wow! You really know how to lay that paint down and blend. I've been watching many of your video's on it and learning so much from you Brian. I know "It's Just Paint" but I am apprehensive about attempting a roof and hood with silver base coat clear coat for the first time on a daily driver that sits outside all the time. The clear is badly peeling so I know I'll be sanding it all off and painting in a garage, Silver looks tricky. I'm wondering if I should just spray it with single stage paint an hope for the best. I know you recommend not doing home jobs in metallic single stage but if I'm only trying to make it look better should I go for it.
Nice job Brian, silver is the worse color ever with the trouble with sand scratch swelling, "tiger stripes" and color match. A PPG Rep gave me a tip yrs ago when blending silver. He said lay down your bedding/undercoat clear, open up your fan pattern and hold your gun at a 45 degree angle and walk backwards to the panel as if you were running a comb over the surface. I don't fear a blend on silver anymore!😆
I will have to try that!
That silver must be a hard color to match. Unfortunately that’s what color my truck is and I just have half to paint! Thanks for your help Brian.
I always hate how clear darkens silver on a blend panel. I think you may have mentioned about keeping the coats light to possibly prevent this.
Thanks.
Do you have anything on doing a two tone paint job? I'm curious how it can be done without hard lines where the colors meet.
Yes.
I always in trouble spraying silver im losing confidence this video help me more but the thing is im using octoral system and i donf like it.before im a sikkens user but i had no problem with it but my boss change our material to cheapest
Hey Brian. I’m learning how to paint. I’m restoring a 1952 Chevy truck. I did expoxy primer. Then bodied out with high build primer. I did all the body work. I want to do a gun metal grey with black fenders. I’ve seen guys do a black base first then do their paint. What’s your advice on doing a gun metal grey? Do I do a base coat with black, or just use the gun metal paint as it comes? I’m a beginner, so be kind 😂😂
would love to see you do a video on the walcom slim kombat HTE
Ok i will
@@PaintSociety ok thanks would Iove to hear what you think about it thinking of picking one up to use for base or clear
I’m restoring my dads old dodge truck, it’s ice blue metallic. I’ve tried a couple of test pieces, it’s gonna be a tough color to spray
have you painted a corvette with the Sterling blue color ?
Any chance you could come to the UK and repair the door on my silver bmw 😂 needs a top job like this
Did you make a video on how large of spray fan size you use with metallic?
There is such a thing as a sealer gun in my opinion. The lph 300 lol once you use that you will understand
Brain, I'm going to be spraying a 68 mustang in silver metallic. The booth temp is staying around 65 degs. Would you still use a slow reducer at that temp? This is a full paint job. Thanks for your input.
Looking great! I would like to see you use the Exodus gun more. I am still waiting to use the one I got from you. It is 1 step forward 2 steps back getting my car ready. 😂
Will do!!
@@PaintSocietydo you still recommend the Fuji q5 platinum for painting a entire vehicle
@@jermaineenglish5732 hold off. I have a new turbine to the market i am making a video on
Ok I hope it’s around the same price point
Or less 😂
quick unrelated to this video question, I have some faded paint and watching videos to start a diy 2k rattle can job in the next few weeks, I will be spraying same oem color but was unsure on sanding. I seen some videos where you sand the paint off and then I see a few videos where you just use a scuff pad to scuff the current paint to do primer. when do you use what I guess is my question?
If faded then just sanded it good and primer it
Does your system tell you what color sealer to use depending on what variant you pick ?
No but it should. I gave seen some systems do
The sealer in the DV1 looked like a small fan pattern, not the normally large DV1 fan or like the Sagola spraying the clear base. Did you dial the fan way in or is that just how it worked with the sealer material or viscosity?
Mi favrit vrand sikkens
Half coat same as drop coat I think.
How come you didn’t spay the base coat when the blend coat was wet for a better melt in.? I saw
the cross pattern on the blend but thought it would work best in a wet blend coat. Great tutorial video, really enjoy you and Mario’s videos also your home dream garage , awesome.
You definitely can but extra slow does the same thing
Loved the video since my vehicle has the same color, but what do you do to adjust for bumper covers as they never quite match, usually darker? Thanks Brian
Usually just blend if I can’t get them to match
That's a good match Brian. Awesome job. For the front bumper will be paint separately, is the color will be different once its done? Or slightly different since its a silver.
I have left over paint. Mixed up extra. It will match perfecg
hello brian can I ask you a qeustion pls?what kind of paper you use to mask the floor of the booth? thanks
I see your using Lesonal universal clear have you used lesonal pro air clear slow? if so what are your thoughts?
Is it necessary to put 5 to 10 coats of paint and clear on a vehicle?
🔥🔥🔥
How about silver metallic with spray can 🤔
No lol
The clear (vietek) that I have used has an activator that is hot or medium obviously the hot flows better but is more prone to run any thoughts? thanks
Brian I'm on my second flip and it's metallic silver! Thanks for this video. I do have a question, I'm painting the doors but the only areas I need to paint are above the black pinstripe. Do I tape over the pinstripe up to the edge or do I remove the pinstripe altogether?
For the best results. Remove it
If you're going to paint the bumper too why not put sealer on the left fender where the bumper will meet up with the fender? Just curious
You can. Doesn’t hurt
Brian is that an epoxy sealer?
Phillip Hall
When you prepare the panels blend panels with 800g, are you supposed to go through the clear coat or do you blend over the old clear?
No don’t go through the clear coat just sand the clear with 800 till it’s dull
Hi Brian, Sent this comment before it I don't think it posted. I'm getting ready to repaint my silver 68 mustang. Have a couple prep and paint questions and was wondering if there is a email address I could send them to and not have to post them to the comment section. Very short list, just would love your input. Thanks very much for any of your time.
Rick
what is clear base? Is that the same as clear coat?
Where he located I need my car purple and glitter white
Color build was nice but I hated you had to smoke your edge on sealer with reducer or it would be grainy as hell and you’d have a halo
What’s the color code ?
what type of reducer was in the clear extra slow aswell?
None. I try and not reduce unless its too hot
The clear (vietek) that I have used has an activator that is hot or medium obviously the hot flows better but is more prone to run any thoughts? thanks@@PaintSociety
(If the sealer isn’t smooth) Why do you say to put 1 coat of paint and then sand the sealer ? Vs just sanding the sealer to make it smooth??
You sand base. Not sealer
@@PaintSociety I just read my question😂 total mistake. what I ment to ask is why do you sand the base instead of the sealer ? What’s the benefit? I usually sand the sealer with a 1000 grit, to smooth it out if there are any imperfections and then base. Hence the question! Thanks for the reply! I’m Always looking to learn something.
@@Moto_Mike because you dont want to remove the sealer. The sealer sands gummy. The base will
Show you where to sand. It acts as guide coat
What state are you in?
So sad that I can’t buy from Japan 😢
OMG im about to look for someone who will paint the rear fender of my Honda Accord with the NH623M Paint and you are telling me that there's 19 variants of this paint? Jesus....
Do you have any paint society shirts
No more. Just suites. Sorry
@PaintSociety that's cool love the videos, very informative. I am going to have to get a suit then thanks
i want mine to say brian lol
Lol ! I mean it can 😂
Acuras may be the most commonly (lightly) crashed cars in existence. Passing no judgement on their drivers, but is there not an element of truth in that statement?
Nissan altimas single handily take that spot
First
If you ain't first you're last
silver "metallic"? Kind of redundant.
So out of the whole video, that is your best comment that you had to say? There are many different metallics. Silver is not the only metallic
@@PaintSociety I didn't watch the whole video. Just commented to say silver is metallic by nature, hence the redundancy. No kidding silver is not the only metallic, didn't say it wasn't.
Who does your painter suit merch? I want to make some with my company logo
