This is an outstanding dvd that you will learn a lot from. Both helmets came out very nice.
This video had great instruction. It was easy to understand and I loved it.
This was a great video with exact information I was looking for. I was easy to understand and I loved that the products spoken about were mentioned. I recommend this video highly.
Very helpful. A lot of good info in here. The two helmets he shows how to do were very cool.
You get to see two helmets using different techniques from beggining to end. Very entertaining and informative. The wife and daughter even sat and watched the transformation and really enjoyed the DVD. This is one that I will purchase.
Craig hits another home run with this video, good info and it will inform the novice and remind the advanced.
Worth renting. Had to watch it a few times to catch some important steps that are kinda glossed over quickly, but that is just because I am a beginner so things that are automatic to a pro are not for me. Masking is pretty much skipped - an assistant takes care of that off screen, but overall it was informative.
This DVD was excellent. I feel confident in spraying helmets now. Very instructional.
I think this is one of the best videos I have seen. It is pro. made with a very talented artist. What I have learned from this video will be help full for years to come.
I loved it, this guy really knows his stuff. I can't wait to see more!!
I highly recommend, good for beginners an advanced airbrushers.
It sure is a good thing to have this service! This video help a lot, because you learn new tricks,ideas,know more tools. It's a great video. Frasier explains tjomgs very well and at a good pace so you learn more. I recommend this. Thank you.
I really liked this video, especially the flag helmet. It took the some of the mystery out of taping too. Craig Fraser is great and makes it look so easy. I was surprised at how light a coat of paint is required. This is to not create a high edge. I would have liked to see him show how the helmets looked after clearcoating live on camera. This was shown at end in a still picture, but it was tough to see how good it looked. Recommended.
