Smoooootthhhh..
Smooth as glass
Here we go with “another video I sped up” 🤦♂️.. nothing was sped up except my work mode.
Here we go with the “I must have sped up the video” again.. 🤦 this is a flow coat, it comes out better this way
FlowCoat
I love doing flow coats
Switching gears..
While the bike dries out I jumped back onto the Ranch Wagon. Blocking out the hood with Ferring Boards, boat sanders..
Perfect 🤩
Now to let it sit for a couple days, let the clear dry and then sand down with 320-500 grit and pinstripe the flames then flow coat with clear
That’s good enough
5 coats of candy red over gold base, that’s enough for me.
1st of 6 coats
Using the Iwata 80 with the 1.2-E4 air cap ( the E4 cap has a wider fan
Candy red
Saturday morning CANDY RED…
Flames
Flames are very much like a love hate relationship… Sometimes you nail them first try, other times you are ready to drop kick whatever your working on in the street… I’ve put about 15 different flame layouts on this MOFo!!! These are gonna stay! 😂
Not bad for a days wotk
Well, I’m happy, started this this morning, had to blend a bunch of stuff, but it’s done now I cleared the body just lock it in tomorrow. I will clear the front bender. The hood the cowell vent and vance
Doing a quick mask just to lightly protect the cab while I scuffed the clearcoat with 320 grit and 500 grit dry sandpaper.. I’m gonna treat this roof like any other flowcoat, there’s no need to get all crazy and breakthrough the clear into the Candy basecoat because I’m going to Raey my light gray sealer on top of that followed by my silver basecoat, followed by silver metal flake and finally finished off with five coats of American Icon euro CLEAR.. my main goal is just to get the flake laid down and buried with the clearcoat and let it sit for a couple days..
HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!
Gonna knock out another flaked out roof on this amazing 57 Pick em Up.. Gonna keep this one classy and timeless, as opposed to the other wild roofs I’ve done in the past.. This one’s gonna be silver metal flake by the one and only @tropical Glitz followed up by none other than American Icon Euro Clear.. stay tuned as I get into this!!
