- [Donnie] This is Donnie Smith,
and I'm gonna show you something really cool in this video,
this makes a very neat effect.
It looks like you did something really hard,
but it's really easy to do.
First thing you wanna do is spray black base coat
wherever you're gonna be doing this
and we've already done that in this video,
so we sprayed the black base coat and now we're gonna use
some marblizer, it's by House of Color,
and we're using the silver.
There's several different colors that they have
and what he's doing now,
he's allowed the black base coat to flash off
and now he's putting a coat of
this silver marblizer on top of that and,
he's gonna get both sides, he's doing this whole top,
he's gonna do this effect on,
and again, this is very simple to do,
but looks really, really cool.
(spraying mist)
I don't know if you've ever seen this, or not,
if you have, you may have thought, you know,
that might have been something that's very difficult to do,
or you might know how this is done already,
but this is one of those tricks that look cool,
but anyone could really do this.
I mean, it's just basically spraying this coating.
So, anyway, he's getting this spray down
and after he sprays this, you don't wanna wait too long,
you know, about 10 to 20 seconds is all, max.
We're gonna get some plastic
and I've wadded it up real tight
to give it as many creases in it as possible.
You can use Saran Wrap,
we're using the plastic that we covered the car with.
And now we're just gonna lay it on top,
so that's why you don't it to wait too long,
you do want the coating to be wet.
But this is a slow dry coating for this purpose.
I mean, you really can't do this
with regular paint, as well.
I mean, this is designed just for this.
It's ready to spray outta the can,
you don't mix it with anything,
just pour it and you're good and spray.
You wanna kinda rub down the creases and stuff,
but you can see where the plastic's wrinkled up some,
there's some air bubbles in it, and that's good,
that's what you want.
But you do want everything touching,
so you wanna get around your edges real good
and just kinda lightly pat with your hand,
the whole surface down, and then just pull if off
and it makes this cool effect right here.
And you can see where those creases in the plastic were at,
it kinda makes it look like veins in marble.
I mean, a really cool effect.
And so we're just checking it out.
We was reading the technical data sheet,
there is something neat you can do,
you can do this two times.
So we're gonna do that with this car,
we're gonna go ahead and do it again.
But there was a couple of spots felt like it needed
a little bit more texture and you can go back and do that
and that's something else,
I mean we're using plastic
for a total different effect,
you can use paper, you know,
wad it up and put it on there,
it gives a total different look.
You know, different things will give it different textures
which will, you know, make a different look.
Like I said, I think these come in three or four colors,
we're using the silver, they're all ready to spray
and most of them are designed to go on top of black.
Now you can get creative and do it on different colors,
and things like that, but, you know,
just to get different effects, you know,
I would recommend doing that on small test panels.
But, you know, it's unlimited what you can do,
but it's designed to go on black for the best effects.
So we decided to go ahead and give it two coats,
just to kinda give it a little bit different effect,
see what it'd look like.
And we did mess around with some test panels
before we did this and kinda decided to do that.
So he's putting on a light coat,
maybe even not even a medium wet,
just a real light coat on this time
so we don't completely cover the black up (spraying mist)
and then once we let that set for a few minutes,
we're gonna put the plastic back on.
Now let me mention in-between these coats,
you need to let that flash about 30 minutes.
I mean, you need time for this stuff to evaporate
and flatten out before you go and put another coat on.
So, there is a long flash time before putting another coat
or putting your clear coat on, for that reason.
'Cause like I said, it is a slow dry product.
So anyway, we wadded the plastic up again
and we're getting it stretched out
and we're gonna lay it on there one more time,
just to give it a different effect
to see what it looks like.
Okay, we got it out,
and now we're gonna lay it down on there
and again, we're just gonna use
our hands to lightly pat it down,
just to kinda give it, you know, the texture.
Like I said, you don't wanna completely work every line
and bubble outta this plastic, you know,
because that would not really give it the feature
or, you know, the look that we're going for.
So we got it on there,
get your edges and everything real good
and now we can pull it off.
So we get that off there and now you have
a completely different texture, different look.
If you're wanting more black to show,
I'd recommend one coat.
If you're wanting more silver, you know, two.
So it just kinda depends on what you're wanting.
Like I said, before I did anything like this,
especially if I've never used it before,
I would definitely, you know, do some test panels
and see what effect I'm going for.
Now what he's doing, we've let it set for 30 minutes
to make sure that, you know, has dried.
And just going over it with a tack rag to get any dirt
and lint and things like that off of there.
And now we are gonna put the clear coat (spraying mist).
A lot of times we'll put two full wet coats,
but, you know, since this had the texture and everything,
we're gonna go ahead and put three wet coats
and that way if we do have any dirt
or have any buffing, we'll, you know,
we'll have plenty of clear coat there to sand and buff.
So he's just going around with the full wet coat
and, you know, this sprays like you would any clear.
You know, just painting anything,
there's nothing special about it,
just put it on, 50% overlap, you know, it's a solvent clear.
Keep the wet edge going, so wherever he stops,
you know, that's really the best way to pick it back up.
So you keep that wet edge, you know, moving the whole time.
There's some painters that do that a little bit different.
You know, if it works for you,
that's fine, you know, it's whatever works.
So, anyway, he's getting this first coat on.
And I can't emphasize enough,
be sure that you read these technical data sheets
for these products, like the flash times.
We're cutting that out of this video,
I mean, I'm sure you wouldn't wanna wait 30 minutes
and watch the paint flash,
you know, that'd be pretty boring.
But, we cut all the flash times out.
So, see now he's putting on the second coat,
but we allowed that to flash
that recommended time before we did that.
(spraying mist)
And you know every product's a little bit different,
every brand's a little bit different,
so you just really need to know,
you know, for the technical data sheet
for the specific products that you're using.
We're not using House of Color clear coat here,
I think we're just using just the Shop-Line European Clear.
- [Man] I think you need to slow down a little bit.
- Even though we did use the Shop-Line marblizer,
because it really does the best
for using the marblizer that I've seen.
Like I said, you know,
regular painting really does not work that well,
this is a slow-to-dry product designed just for that.
So anyways, he's getting a second coat on.
He's just getting all of his edges first
and then he'll go back, continue with that wet edge
and, you know, keep it nice and wet.
Nice, even 50% overlap, you know, each pass.
(spraying mist)
And I wanna show you here in a little bit,
after he's done, after he puts this third coat on,
I'm gonna show you what it looks like a little bit closer
and I think you'll agree that this really does look cool.
And if you've never seen this, you know,
they make different colors, but basically,
just the exact same technique.
And I'm gonna make a video, I haven't made it yet,
and it's just for, you know, it'll be a video for everyone
where I undo the test panel with a different color.
I did a little bit with the plastic,
a little bit with the paper,
just to show you what it looks like.
Now he's getting his third coat on, third and final coat.
And we get that on and we'll be done.
Then just let it dry and then we can unmask it
and he'll be done with this car.
(mist spraying)
And I'll put a link down in the description here
with the products of, you know, House of Color.
And I'm sure there's other companies that make this,
this is the only one that I've used.
I have tried just doing it with paint before,
making my own, did not turn out too good.
So, that's why I always use House
of Colors when I'm doing this.
And now he's on the last side with the last coat
and you're about to see what this looks like.
And if you've ever used this,
came up with something different than Saran Wrap or paper,
you know, let us know.
We can all learn from each other.
I like the plastic look the best,
but there are a lot of different
things that you can do this with, so.
Plus it seems like plastic kinda sticks to the surface,
makes it a little bit easier to push down.
You know, paper, you gotta be careful
with it sliding around on there
which might mess the texture up.
But there's different things you can do.
Alright, now getting a close-up
and you can see that this looks really cool.
Again, if you wanted more black,
just do one coat, this is gonna have more silver in it,
but it does make a real cool technique or finish, you know?
It looks really awesome.
So that wraps up this video,
we're just gonna show you a little bit,
show you a little bit on the other side,
but, hope that you liked this.
