everybody ran here in East garage thanks
for joining us for another live video on
facebook and youtube today we're going
to go over mixture ratios were going to
explain them i'm going to show you how
you can get an exact and precise ratio
using mixing cups it may sound simple
but it is it should be but we're going
to show you exactly how to use them and
why you need them plus the report lids
gonna show you a couple paint guns and
masking station and we're going to
explain why this truck is sitting behind
me now as always if you have any
questions don't be afraid to post them
in the comment and in the comment
section on facebook and youtube Scotty
seized over here you can see them nice
shirt Scott yes stand up for your fans I
don't get a good luck let them breathe
in and so if you have any questions or
comments
all you gotta do is post them Scott's
gonna dance answer him if it's something
i can answer here or demonstrate I'll
take care of it
so first thing if you're mixing paint
that probably means gonna be pouring
paint out of a gallon like this now
we've all done it and what happened
Jennifer with the paint all around the
lip you end up with a mess everywhere
well you might want to go to eastwood
and check out these port lids jewelry in
here on it good
alright so real simple just take the lid
push it down on it seals tight and now
when you want to pour you a poor out of
here to set it back down
it's sealed backup you don't have any
mess at all in fact we even have them
for courts to so no matter what size can
you're using are going to portland for
that's something that makes it makes a
really nice when you're mixing paint so
speaking of mixing paint
let's get into mix ratio this jump right
into it so i'm using this gallon jug
because it's easy for demonstration
purposes because it's going to be really
easy to say we've got pints and quarts
we got about all sizes you're going to
need if you visit Eastwood we sell them
kids and everything alive you're going
to use in courts and we sell them as
well so let's get right into it now
these mixing cups are have about every
ratio you want and we if we can get
we're going to cut in here
ok so there's
a 211 three two one two one now that
means say three to 11 which is what
we're going to be using that simply
means three parts paint one part
activator one part reducer now if you're
not using a reducer you can totally
forget about this and you just use 2321
column and it and has four to 12 15 6
and 8 and around here is is just your
standard measurements announces and
milliliters to say want to mix 96 ounces
and say you have one-to-one ratio you
just pour up to 48 and then add your
activator up here 296 now it's something
beyond that you can use one of the
charts i just showed you so job in june
first I'll show you what we're gonna be
mixing if we cut to jail here
so what we're going to be doing today is
we're going to be mixing it in eastwood
single-stage everything which is a
three-to-one ratio which is three parts
paint one part activator now some people
going to want to add a reducer so that's
how you end up with your 3 2121 because
you would add this also at one part so
that's what we're going to do we're
going to three parts paint one part
activator and we're also going to reduce
her to show you three two one to one
ratio and now if we come back here to
our to our large mixing Cup now say i
decided i want to mix about 96 ounces so
what I do is ok I take the 96 ounces
right here and i would spin around the
cup until I come to my 3211 right so 96
ounces puts me right there now you can
see where that's at
it's somewhere between this two in this
three and my good here
ok now somewhere between the two and
three now remember these numbers here
are not units of volume they're not
units of measurement it just helps with
the ratio so don't think yeah we're
going to mix about 96 ounces we're not
mixing exactly 96 ounces and these cups
are just going to help with the ratio so
we're mixing try not don't think that
we're mixing you know like 30 ounces of
this 1010 we're just going for about
ninety six so we can mix a little more
and use this and use this 3 or we can
mix a little less and use this to now
the 96 plus a little closer to the two
so I'm going to mix a little less and
use this to so what that means is the
reason of all the way over here into
this column is because i'm using three
things so by the time I add the reducer
I want to be over here so i would add
the paint at the activator and the
reducer so the final tally I want to be
right about here which puts us at this
too so the first thing I would do is I'm
going to add i want to add the paint to
the first two so this too is just the
columns that we're going to use now all
you to the first two then I'll add the
activator which goes from there to there
then we had the reducer from there to
there so remember it's a 3 2121 so the
first one is three parts and this ratio
is just one-third of this ratio and this
ratio again is just one-third 3 2121 if
we want to mix more you would just use
one of the other ones so we can get so
now you may ask why you want to do this
over just cups it's because it's very
accurate or mixing stick a lot of times
you use a mixing stick and what happens
is is that the cups your bucket of your
mixing in it may be tapered like this so
if you're using a stick that has a
measurements on it's based on a perfect
cylinder so when you stick it in it it
doesn't know it gets bigger so your
ratio is going to be way off because cup
grows it's not an accurate it's not
actually won't be an accurate ratio
anymore because the cups bigger and the
sticks based on it being a perfect
cylinder where these come in
it's all that mass already done for you
you're gonna get a perfect ratio every
time because it's built into the bucket
so the first thing we're going to do
here if we cut back if we can come back
to this close-up of the bucket is i'm
going to add the peat up to the first
two because again we're mixing three two
one two one two
you see I'm getting close so as you can
see right here i'm in the three column
and i'm using the tools because i want
to end up here after i add all three
parts the paint the activator and the
reducer I want to end up there so my
first one was three parts paint so I
went to that too
I'm gonna go to the next to with with
the activator so now i'm going to have
the activator up to that too
so now you can see so now we have the
now we have the paint and we have the
activator so if that's all we needed if
we were only using a three-to-one ratio
if we if we only needed the paint and
the activator we'd be done we can mix
this up and we can go paint but because
we also need a reducer we're going to go
to right there
so now we add the reducer and there we
go we have a perfect three two one to
one ratio of paint activator and reducer
so before we get into a before we get
into the paint guns and some other stuff
around here Scott you have any questions
or how we make it out here so far you've
been explaining it really well you
knocked it out of the park and thank you
susan I've been practicing practices for
about three weeks you can tell so help
so I'm so anyways let's check
let's check out the check out the paint
guns um if you're looking for getting
started to painting or if you're just
looking for another gun spray some bass
clear you want to check out this
concourse LT a nice gun
great price comes with 1.3 needle nozzle
so it's good for spraying your bases and
clears you cannot get other needle
novels from eastwood if you want to
spray your primers
ah but over here checking out you get in
here the coup de Gras the conch
force pro two gun set really nice set
I actually have this gun spray is really
nice
the kit comes with a regular gun and a
detailed gun which is really nice to
have hard-to-reach areas the detail cock
gun comes with a one-point O'Neill
nozzle and the concourse Pro comes with
a 13 or 17 and a 20
so you're going to be all the spray
everything from your primers all the way
up to your base and clear codes so this
kit is going to lie to pretty much spray
everything you need on your car plus it
comes with a regulator and it comes with
your cups and right here in this box is
cleaning kit and your gun wrench so if
you're looking for your first your first
HVLP pink onset this is a great set and
if you're just looking to upgrade again
it's a great set because it's got
everything you need to spray from base
to clear and primers so now that we got
through that
let's check out Oh check out i'm asking
station so after already was set up
i rise I should have I should have
thrown a tip that you guys but I kind of
ran out of time because we're scheduled
to go live at three if you've never seen
one of these masking trees masking
stations the really nice
we sell smaller version and if you're
watching this live you might want to go
to eastwood.com and check out our daily
deal because every day we pick out a
product we give you ten percent off and
free shipping on a product so if you go
to use with dot com take apart your
daily schedule in the morning you don't
check it out and see what products we
have and I believe today we have a small
masking station which holds one size
paper it's like a store it's it's it's
it's pretty nice and i think that might
be our daily do today so if you're
watching this live today only
don't try calling in three weeks from
now and telling our customer service
department I told you get a great deal
and then you gotta do it today but
anyways well it works is it
automatically puts on the tape so the
masking tapes here the papers here
so you pull out what you need and you
rip it off and the reason i said i
remember this was because a lot of times
if i was going to paint the first thing
i would do is i drip off a few feet of
that and i would put it down here
wherever i'm working so i put down one
row of this one working because it's
really nice to work on if you're mixing
paint everything else because if you
spill when you're done you just ball it
up and you throw it away and it keeps
your workstation nice and clean for the
next time so one last thing all you
people you probably want to know what
this truck is behind me the truck behind
