want to learn how to get perfect panel gaps on that restoration and keep
watching this video to CLT see panic at bay 1 customers does it
TC wow the crowd at SEMA 2013 in las vegas with his amazing 1958 cameo
concept pickup truck that featured a ton of eastwood products
most notably the vino rojo red paint that stop everyone in their tracks
but with that truck really displayed was tc's amazing attention to detail right
down to the exact five-millimeter panel gaps in this video
he uses Eastwood contour body filler to show you how he creates those perfect
gaps
let's check it out I don't give a shout out to mark jr. her from a slit for
coming back and saying yesterday that came along with Kevin tears come out to
the to the shop and went over some of the products I'm using of theirs and we
had a great discussion on how to use them in the proper materials and have a
lot of questions other stuff so big shout out to the Emperor taking the time
to come all the way down here just a little of me
meanwhile i ordered my own materials for this Jack wire from a split because I
had such good success with the same truck that we took a las vegas every
product that he's there is this outstanding it was easy to get that
should be right to me
so those are some of the products that I'm going to use on the Jaguar
I mean this contour premium filler then i'm going to put the contours of poly
fit polyester filler over top of that I love doing that metric as I cut this
with 36 grit real fast and level
I can shoot this on here and get no strings on this that's but very little
bit nicer initiative to get it on there and i use a 20 tier sprays oh nice
then I cannot cut that with a degree that
I come back with this 2k urethane i can see that down a little bit and spray
over that and then I would just cut that with 400 so i get i can level with me
yes I get a little more level with this
it stopped my shrinkage here put this on slick in the way then I'm really good at
cutting out texture
also they i ordered this same sailor I use this on the same the truck fixed
with floor pans in this love this black same sailor it's firm kind of hold this
place pretty well it seems to spread it easy to work with
love that stuff and i want to show you something else haha thanks really cool
undercutting I'm a stickler for up rusted prevention
so i can take this into a little bitty how / use the regional weep holes in
rocker panels and door panels 10 cab corners and I'll stick this up in there
put it on my undercarriage and then just pull it through it sprays up 360 degrees
so it just coat the whole entire that with my undercuts so what
thanks wood for such great product I'm fixing it back at this and we'll show
you some tricks on how to do well cut the same out and some of the methods
talk to you about some of the methods that i use on get this filter on here
nice and smooth
what do you say little skim coat how about your skin this is completely one
good time and then i lock it down flat
I have a few low spots in it someone and I skimmed it one more time
block them again it takes a lot of time doing that blocking but I kept this
white 36 . to go into the dam and level and then I put my ex would probably feel
on top of this so my mom brought up a bit now this front blocking and cut it
on this side so just a whole lot of bodywork bodywork when I was going to be
like this for a few weeks
it's a wide on saying it up i'll give you a tip on this if you put this
Hilary and it's smooth and its level as possible
it will save you a huge amount of time because anywhere that you put it and
it's a little bit love you that you have to take it down to that spot and you
want to have to read coverage and if you work it out i used to work my bondo
until I can't work it anymore
that way i can not it actually makes it a little bit more spread a little
smoother
it's more the pin holes out of it and help you laying out suppose they're all
watching this way and I'm like this way every time I sprayed it with that
spreader its level it just a little bit more
so I'm going to get back at hear what you're saying and I will show you a
little trick on how to make up say across the front here
all right many times these car shows you see how the body fitment on the door
panels the doors and fenders get laser strike
i will show you a quick little trick on how to get that done in the most
efficient white possible without doing a bunch of metalwork
you can go in here and fabricate the ages with steel and we're already in and
the time you do all the fabrication and welding and all that
it's really not justified when you're only you're only trying to gain just a
millimeter tape
case in point this bottle it's pretty tight down through here
it had a little bit of a variance in between this panel on this panel right
on that age
so what i did was i used a deer glass pipe product which is extremely strong
strictly rigid and will not absorb moisture it
as well to the to the metal and it was that strange strong so i put that in
there
the low and i think a talk about that one of my previous videos and then what
I'm going to do is put my light white filler on top of it
I'll over the edge that so i can do a sculpting in between the tape
now most people would why this space right here and then send it out and wipe
it and saying it and you're saying and wiping and you're doing a lot of work
you
you could spend almost a day on just this area doing that to doing it that
white
I've got a trick for that and that involves taking the pipe paddle take it
a couple of razor blades
I put a screw through them to hold them in place
what's up with that pipe panels right at about four millimeters now you can
adjust the size of the thickness of the wood here the paint battle to change
your thickness but i'm shooting for around 45 millimeter gap which always
fits well looks nice
so this will cut it for then I'll come back in saying that smooth to put it
right at five then the time I do my poli feel my prime and all that so close back
up to about whole so tight paddle too little razor blades
I've got a Sandpiper stuck just to one side of my other pipe pounds and then
I've got a spreader and then also I want to use this phone tight to fill in the
back so you pick to see how this works works like a change
so start off with get my hair done
blood is that ok now i went in here
I would have been hearing it all this has been already been sanded
so now i'm going to do a pre claim to get the rest that does stop there
I just lightly dampen a tile with a little bit of washed
free cleaner do not use watch it or just briefly and then we're gonna put my
phone tight and warm up killer is going to be on that edge
I'll clean that really really nice that claim to get my bound tight pull it out
I'm gonna put it right through here to keep the killer from squeezing the end
between jail
all right i got my bottom applies on my pre claim to hear you're right there
he's saying that I like that I like that I'll be able to walk across that my
finger is going to go down there just a little bit more relaxed missile that
location now been spreading for a few days so I already know about how much
filler i can get down and work out so you need a bit might get good judgment
that and try to mix the assignment my aunt takes time if you mix up your
filler and it gets hard before you get time to spread it all out
you need to reduce the harder little bit or you can just mix up a little less but
you need enough time to get all this filter on there so you don't why
stealing and give yourself plenty of time to work that filler down smooth and
level if you take the time to make it more smooth more level it is
you will have to wait let's say anything here we go with the spray that you save
yourself a bunch of time and what I'm picture day
i know i've got about enough time to to do this if it's humid outside which
you're intensely there's a lot of humidity this stuff tends to save one
fire off a little faster so you
and we'll do one thing the time and leave this one up then I'm going to that
Mike Ross next that way I have just the right sweet spot I'm cutting this I want
this to be the consistency of cheese is sitting up
it's going to set up and be about the same consistency as slice cheese and
i'll be able to we all right through it with my little cutter i might spread
this out really really smooth it on the gender and you see the amount of put out
here
it's just about right
that's gonna give me a minute really work this in real nice and smooth just
like using that da to level it
I can use the width of this pad so every time I spread it
I'm left a little bit so i cannot process and level
and the more I do this I'm actually steel mixing it
I'm removing he knows and really tighten it up and bond against this metal only
mixing up that small amount is allowing me to really work this in smooth it
should take me long at all
cut this
yeah
I look as smooth sliding myself a huge same time a lot of dragging it over
alright so now what I'm going to like this age down a little bit i'm going to
another spray it up here and smoother I had this killer at the top
these are being made in my bullying and out by their most reading right over
there just a little bit
so this is gonna be time to get all this off and we'll clean yourself and then by
the time i get this plane up this I'll be set up and up to where I can cut it
and i'll show you what what i will do with this cut
all right I've been sent here wait and watch it will leave it because when it
fires up its gonna happen by ask
it seems like it's just right so what I'm gonna do is follow up against the
bonnet another bond is the edge and im looking to mimic and we'll take this
blade and then it's more slice through here like butter
now if you miss this window and it sets up it's free to up the stakes you have
to come in here with that yeah
product cut off tool or something and fix it
stay right there
just pulled that right out
and then I open the switch it up
i'm gonna go ahead and do that this one and this one up here and then i'll open
it stood up and all that followed my out and then I'll take that sandpaper i
showed you and i'll send this back a little bit and then once i get that up
it will be just as just behind of a little ledge right there and we'll come
back and mix up my feeling on my back white that age and then they got to be
it will be a perfectly it
so all right I've got this cut down now I want to show you went up after i took
my razor cutter and I cut that out
I showed you how to pull that out of there well I normally don't do that at
that point because i will leave the bottle in there are go ahead and cut it
i like the thumb in there Melanie that little pigs in there
that way when I'm doing my block and it just helps support that little bit so it
doesn't turn these ages is bad then once I get this cut pretty flat
then I'll take that thing out of there once i get it out of there i take my
plate pattern that has a only sandpaper on one side it gets about 4 millimeters
five millimeters
so if you want to get her tiger millimeter gap there now you can pin
this board down and how to determine the millimeter gap is you can set a door or
you can set a trunk and a slice and then you'll know what the back respect you so
once i get this implies that measure these open see what I got and then the
sabres I told you know it's a four millimeter gap on the car factory and
then you can go from there
but once you get it applies for the the board side against the place you're
trying to decide you're trying to reproduce and then just come in there
and that's insane it down
and block it out and then once you get it blocked out
it's perfectly fit down through there so when I after I do that
raise your pace up and you'll see there's just the most hint of a little
bit of a Ledge there it's not even a half a millimeter of a Ledge
I can take my mind off my filler and mix it up real nice
and I just back back white that right in there real nice real time
that's after I claim that i always claimed that in the same and plain that
the sand at first and then pretty fun to get all nice and plate
anyone you back quite a bit then take that and all the way around that
hold it tight against there and it'll it'll smear it just perfectly in there
any comebacks and a little bit and then when you get all done
you have a perfect gap so so for years I've done it the other way of walking
and walking there and saying this and it just takes forever
you never get that true line this method when you cut that it's going to be a
laser straight line and look absolutely beautiful sup
I'm gonna do a little more work on this and I'm gonna go up here and next week
show you how the veil console and stuff is coming
so let's get back to work
yeah
