Good job man. Nice set up too. :cheers
What a super nice thing to do for that lady,nice work guys :cheers Beautiful shop too :clappy
hell, for free, I would paint over that dent in the driver’s fender too! nice job and nicer shop!
That is great!!!! there are still great folk’s in this world , great job and very nice shop!!!! :clappy
Thanks guys… There was way more damage than just the dent you can see in the video, but like I said, QUICK AND FREE. Considering the condition of the car (completely de-laminated), and the quick buzz, seal, and shoot…. The finished product actually came out pretty nice. Must be all the high-end Sikkens products I slopped on it! :rock
Thanks for the compliments on the shop also… It was a looooonnngggg and frustrating process getting that paint shop put together! :chair
But, the end result is pretty sweet! :cheersHell of a job man, that was a really cool thing to do! :cheers
Is that a Jun-Air booth??
thats a great story :cheers :clappy
Thanks Ryan… Yeah, Jun-Air booth w/quads.
next time just seal it and clearcoat it, she will never know the difference and be just as happy :rofl
I have heard great things about the Jun-Air booths, how do you like them?
It is a very nice booth Ryan… Its easy to maintain, spacious, well-lit, and VERY ADJUSTABLE. The “adjustable” part comes in handy because these booths run a bit too fast (air flow speed) at the manufacturer’s recommended settings. We had to slow it down a bit, even after the installers FINALLY got the the air flow balanced (we had quite a few issues with the installers). Everything is operated off a touch-screen control panel, and you can make almost every critical adjustment necessary right there with a touch of a button (once you actually figure out how it all works! :compsmash )
The booth has great, quick heating capabilities, and will get as hot as you could EVER need! (I actually got it hot enough inside to buckle the floor grates upward while testing it! 👿 ). And with all the quad nozzles set-up properly, you never have to mess around with re-directing them. On average, it takes about 4 minutes to flash off a wet-coat of Autowave reduced at 40%.
We are still having the installers tinker around with the balance a little at a time though, only because I am still not happy with the amount of turbulance in certain areas of the booth. I take every possible precaution to ensure a very clean paint job (Buffing sucks! 😉 ), and I am still getting a bit more dirt in jobs than I am used to seeing. The booth has a static-neutralization cycle, I have 3M dirt-trap fabric on the walls, and the entire floor has industrial-grade carpet-tile. My other complaint… The controls software doesnt let you turn the quads off in the BAKE cycle. While this is designed to heat the booth faster, somtimes it can cause issues. We paint almost everything apart, so sometimes the parts that are off of the car will be fairly close to the quad towers in the corners due to space limitations. Immediately blowing air across these parts after clearcoating can sometimes cause some light solvent-popping, especially when using straight Slow Superior. We have been in contact with Jun-Air in Europe and they are working on a solution to the issue… :cheers
