1. you're bouncing light off of it to see the way Venus when you take it in the daylight there's all kinds of light bouncing off of it people will knowother than that you're new to painting and only had a $10 spray gun you didn't do half bad at all

2. Man there is a massive knots right in front of the camera as your painting it it's not a perfect curve like it should be

3. Bondo

4. 370s suck

5. Relax man,  jest raccoons!

6. @Chris = Running Paint "Cloth Dip in acetone" Quick Light Whip but that Cloth Needs to Be Dipped. Acetone Dry's up a Crap ton Faster that Thinners also Dissipates Faster than Thinners. also If you want to see your Pin holes Much Better on Cameras and For your Self after Primer use a Mist of Black Coating.. then Sand it Till the Black Miss Coat is Gone.. Why Better to See Chips and Pin wholes.. just My two Cents use it dont Use it..

7. What grit did you use after the filler stage to blend the entire bumper?.
   Thanks.

8. Well done ! as usual

9. Amen on the Rustoleum primer being shit. just ruined all the prep and repairs on two alloy wheels with their 2 in 1 primer. Didn't spray evenly, came out very dry sometimes, wet others, and very hard to control. I ended up with a dry, rough, and loose/crumbly finish on the wheels. I waited 3 hours for it to dry, then tried sanding the trouble areas smooth which worked a little, but it was still rough. When I tried to wipe it down to remove the dust with some alcohol, the primer went all gummy. I fixed it as best I could, then tried to spray some rustoleum wheel paint on it. It reacted with the primer and bubbled up, once again ruining all my work. I've used the wheel paint before with Dupli-color primer and had no problems. If I'm using rattle-can primer, I"m sticking with Dupli-color from now on.

10. You need to invest in some security cameras man.

11. Bro, can you please move already?
    You really need to.

12. What guns are you using now?

13. I see most people wet sand the filler primer that may help

14. All of the rattle can sprays are lacquer based and won't sit well under proper 2k paints fyi – that's the reaction.

15. I had the same issues with that filler primer. I thought it I was doing something wrong, but good to know.

16. Use a high quality filler primer and you will not have to wait overnight. Tamco High Build 2k Primer needs 2 hours to dry and sands extremely well.

17. Hy! what song you have on for the time lapse? Great work by the whay!! I wach all of youre video.

18. hi Chris im in a car painting school and the method we use is we always lay a base coat which is black all over the panel and after it dries over 24 hours we use 600grit sandpaper to get it as smooth as possible for paint and then you are just good to go spray it the result will be awesome dude but i know yes you repaired the bumper but if i were to sand down filler i would of used 180 grit sandpaper to get the best finnish of the filler also good for the end result otherwise keep up the good work just trying to give you some advice 🙂

19. Best spray can primer and also clear I've found is Spray Max 2k. It's 2 part in a can and sprays extremely well. It's not super cheap though, and at least here I can't find it locally.

20. If you dont own/carry a gun, you're a victim waiting to happen

21. You say you read all the comments, but you've still never told us why you aren't moving into the house you bought!

22. Time to Sell this shop in the hood and get somewhere safer. You got a ton of dough invested in Tools and car parts.

23. looks god! just a tip, try using a glaze (thin filler) over the first coat of body filler. it does not leave an edge and minimal pin holes. it usually lets you get away with one coat of filler and one glaze coat.

24. MCM hiding in the bushes checking out the 240z build

25. are you aware to a part of one of your videos being on “Wheels That Fail” on tv?

26. 240z?

27. check out http://www.emkustomteez.com for amazing T-shirts

28. Get upol primer typically found at Napa. It's really good stuff from a can.

29. What if you wet sanded the rustoleum primer?

30. Was that the Macarena at 13:30

31. We gotta see a widebody NSX at some point in the future, that thing is a monster! Althought the prices are going hiiiigh right now

32. You’re really getting some practice in on body work these days. Looking good man. Keep it up

33. Hey Chris! Love the channel! I noticed how you used the primer to check on your panel straightness. I’m not sure if you know about it but there’s a product that’s a lot easier to use its called a dry guide coat which 3m makes you just apply some of that and you be able to see where there pinholes are and where it’s not straight

34. Get garbage cans asap Chris, one for every space or even more.

35. Hey Chris you might want to see how this guys using your video.

36. Dude get you self a bunch of Security cams, they're cheap and if someone has been scoping out your property you would know.

37. Again, the proof of using good products. They might be more expensive but they work better and you should not end up in this mess you just worked through. Feel for you bro

38. I agree, a lot of those Rustoleum primers really suck ass for sanding.

39. https://youtu.be/LCb6rTMxoiE check this one out at 2:46 onwards

40. For the pin holes use glazing putty – lots easier and smoother than the normal body filler. Guy at "spray way customs" does that a lot.

41. Make sure to keep your stuff locked up tight man. I remember hearing about MCM having a bunch of their stuff stolen once they started getting more subscribers like you.

42. yeah rustoleum os trash, dupicolor is way better or get the real stuff

43. Quick little tip on the runs in the paint. Use tape. Get yourself some 1 3/4” or 2” tape and use the sticky side to basically flatten the run. Make sure the paint is tacked up first though.

44. You so need a second pair of hands helping you Chris and Security Cameras. Great show as always.

45. Looks like you have a solvent issue with the wing.

46. Chris, I think you should give yourself more lenient deadlines for fixing these cars.

47. i think you're using too much pressure in your high volume LOW PRESSURE gun….. i don't know if its just the time-lapse messing with my eyes, but it looks like you've got too much airborne over spray. the gun should be laying down little droplets, not a 'dusting', especially with single stage paint.

    This is creative criticism coming from a place of love, i want to see you do well and lay down some kick-ass paint jobs. 🙂

48. Great video! However, I don't think I would sand in my paint booth…

49. B is for Bui1dg8r

50. so are you saying you LIKE Rustolium Primer??
