David Delahoussaye here. Painting has become one of my favorite hobbies, and I’m very much a hands‑on DIYer. Most of my projects start right here on my property — painting my house, the barn, and whatever else needs a fresh coat. Now I’m stepping into something more meaningful: restoring my father’s Kubota and Craftsman tractors. After that, I’m planning to take what I learn and apply it to restoring the paint on my truck. I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so I’m always chasing that professional, clean finish. For my first HVLP and HTE guns, I picked up the Black Widow from Harbor Freight, and now I’m here because I want to learn how the pros really do it — the techniques, the discipline, the eye for detail. I’ve seen a lot of paint jobs I’ll never forget. I used to subscribe to Lowrider magazine, and the artwork on some of those builds was unreal. And honestly, Aaron — some of the paint work you’ve shown on your YouTube channel is right up there with the best I’ve ever seen.

@Mike Herrin, you're so right. There's ton on YouTube and most of it is junk. There's some well made videos but nothing that is worthy of education, just entertainment. I'm really glad is willing to share his knowledge.
