Bend metal to your desires using this manual fabrication tool designed with DIYers in mind.

It’s a fast way to reinforce floors, create channels and ribs, build custom truck beds, make pans and much more. Add the Versa Bend Metal Forming Brake for even more control when working on window channels, rocker panels and other hard-to-form parts.

This offset metal brake tool can bend widths up to 20 inches in 20-gauge sheet steel and 18-gauge aluminum — and it also works on 18-gauge mild steel in smaller sizes. It comes with bench mount brackets and a vice mount tab so you can set the system up the way you prefer. Go to the Eastwood Garage and search “sheet metal brake” to see just some of the projects our team has completed using our in-house tool. It has a one-year warranty like all hand tools from the Eastwood R&D guys.

Do The Job Right with Eastwood Auto Paint & Equipment

A fantastic car paint job starts with the right supplies. Eastwood has everything you need to paint your car and achieve professional results. We are the leading auto paint shop whether you shop online or visit a brick-and-mortar store. From basic car touch-up paint to refinishing a car from the bare metal, Eastwood helps DIYers Do the Job Right.

A Better Paint Job

Our huge selection starts with an assortment of automotive finishes. These base coats include both OEM-style paints and custom colors for any sort of project. Add high-quality clear coats to protect the main finish and make it stand out. If you want some extra shine, consider pearls, metallic flakes or the Eastwood Candeez line. Detailing under the hood? We have paints that duplicate various metal finishes, plus high temp coatings that replicate OEM colors and sheens. Remember to lay down a good car primer before you start so the paint has a good foundation.

Auto Painting Equipment

The world's best paint doesn't do much good unless you're able to apply it properly. Shop at Eastwood for auto paint gear such as HVLP guns, mixing equipment, masking supplies and paint booths. If even a beginner painting gun seems daunting to you, consider 2K AeroSpray™ car spray paint that rivals HVLP quality. Remember to pick up safety equipment that protects your clothes, skin and lungs as you work. Those are working with older sheet metal will certainly want our rust solutions that make parts paintable again.

Eastwood backs up this incredible inventory with unmatched product knowledge and service. Read our car painting FAQs below to get started. If you still have questions, visit the Eastwood Garage or call seven days a week to speak with an expert.

Automotive Paint Frequently Asked Question

How long after painting a car can you drive it?

A few weeks after painting your car. No one likes seeing an orange peel texture, cracking or peeling, but exposing your vehicle to the environment right after a fresh paint job can do just that.

Some auto enthusiasts recommend keeping your freshly painted car in the garage for at least a month, but at the same time, you need to be realistic. You need to get places, so you'll have to take your car out on occasion.

How do I properly spray paint my car?

DIY auto painting projects are a multistep process. You'll start by stripping or sanding the old paint off. Then, you'll apply primer, the base coat and the clear coat. You also need to think about rust patches — you can't just paint over them — and cleaning off debris and moisture to avoid texture and adhesion issues. In between, because you'll be handling solvents and using a paint gun, you need to adequately protect yourself against the chemicals in the air.

To start, carve out a block of time to paint your car. Then, be sure to have the following:
Protective gear, including safety glasses and a fresh air respirator system or a mask with a multi-stage filter. We also recommend a paint suit to protect your clothing.
Sanding supplies, including 1200- and 2000-grit wet-and-dry sandpaper and an electric sander — unless you plan to do the job by hand.
Masking tape
Air compressor or paint gun
Paint thinner
Mixing equipment
Auto paint
As a rule, if you're planning to repaint a small- to medium-sized vehicle, have one gallon of base coat available and one gallon of primer plus two to three gallons of clear coat. For a larger vehicle, have 1.5 gallons of base coat ready and three to four gallons of clear coat. Before starting, be sure to match the paint to your car's color by looking for the color code or VIN number.

Learn more about how to get started painting your car.

What is a good paint gun for beginners?

Paint guns come in a few styles, but the most popular is a high volume low pressure (HVLP) gun, which is designed to use less pressure while delivering more paint. These allow you to complete the job in less time.

Another popular option is a turbine paint system, which is a self-contained option that utilizes a turbine motor to compress the air.

Along with these attributes, think about the needle nozzle. Be sure to have at least a 1.2-1.4 for the base coat/clear coat and 1.7-2.0 for the primer.

How the F&*% to Choose a Welder!

Eastwood Company 2023-08-16 | Choosing a welder is a daunting task, especially if you are a total beginner. In this video we make it easy to determine which type of welder would be the best for you.

Eastwood Welders: eastwood.com/welders.html?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=annotation+&utm_campaign=2023-08-16&utm_content=eastwood+welders+4+tips+for+choosing

The Multi-Process Machine That Does It All, Even TIG Weld Aluminum!
Finally a TIG welder with professional features that can also MIG and Stick weld. Most multi-process machines are MIG units that only offer the option to TIG weld steel and it's often scratch start without a foot pedal. Eastwood has raised the bar with this MP welder that not only has MIG and Stick options but is a fully functioning TIG machine with high frequency start and rocker style foot pedal so you can TIG weld steel, stainless and aluminum. It's like buying a quality TIG machine that can also MIG and Stick weld!

When you want a Multi-Process machine that's built to deliver great results on both steel and aluminum with no compromises, you need the Eastwood Elite MP200i AC/DC welder. It has all of the features of a standard AC/DC TIG Welder like High Frequency Start and a Rocker Style Foot Pedal so when you switch from MIG to TIG you know you're going to get the same great results you'd expect from a dedicated TIG machine.

When you're doing a full-scale auto restoration, sometimes one welding function, whether it’s MIG or TIG, isn't going to be enough. This machine is completely plumbed for MIG and TIG welding, and the cart holds a gas bottle for each so you can almost instantly switch between functions without changing hoses and regulators like you would with other units. That means everything stays connected and ready to weld, and with a flip of a switch you can go from MIG to TIG welding when you're working on body panels, roll cages, custom-fab parts or other work.

Weld thin sheet metal or up to 3/8 inch steel and aluminum using this versatile machine. You can also stick weld or add an optional spool gun for MIG welding aluminum.

The Eastwood MP200i Multi-Process 200 Amp AC/DC Welder Features:
Operates on either 120 or 240V
MIG and TIG weld steel, stainless and aluminum
IGBT inverter based power supply
MIG weld thin sheet metal to 3/8 inch thick steel and stainless
TIG weld steel, stainless and aluminum up to 1/4 inch
Arc weld up to 3/8 inch steel and stainless
Weld aluminum up to 1/4 inch with a spool gun (item 20172 sold separately)
Holds 4 or 8 inch wire spools (11 lb. max weight)
Square Wave Inverter
Fully independent MIG and TIG Gas Systems
Holds 2 bottles for both MIG and TIG welding
Rocker style TIG foot pedal with extra long cable (16')
Includes two gas regulators
Dynamic Cooling Fan
Side hooks for easy cable storage
True AC/DC TIG welder with foot pedal and high frequency start!
WP17 Flex Head TIG Torch included for greater flexibility
Includes Gas Lens kit for improved performance
Awesome Duty Cycles on all functions to keep you welding

Powder Coating Vs. Paint: Which Is Better For Your Project?

Eastwood Company 2023-07-22 | Have you ever wondered why people always rave about powder coating? In this video we talk about all the benefits of powder coating and why its great for wheels, suspension, under hood parts and so much more.

POWDER COATING SUPPLIES: eastwood.com/hotcoat-powder-coating.html?utm_source=youtube+&utm_medium=annotation+&utm_campaign=2023-07-21&utm_content=powder+coating+supplies+paint+vs+powder

PCS-250 Powder Coating Gun

The Eastwood PCS-250 Dual-Voltage HotCoat™ Powder Coating Gun gives you complete coverage from tight areas to large surfaces while operating on standard 120v household current. This innovative system will allow you to achieve the benefits of powder coating small parts instead of coating them with paint. This new and improved dual-voltage system gives you the capability to coat small areas using the low 15kv setting or coat large areas using the high-voltage setting 25kv. All you need is a compressed air source (5-10 PSI from a portable tank with a regulator or a compressor) to power your gun, an electric oven or toaster oven to cure the finish and a well-ventilated workspace in which to do your coating. This new and improved gun features color-coded cabling, larger ground clamp, increased trigger room and a clear bottle so you can see the powder color and fluidizing action.

Features:

Extremely durable finish
Coat and cure in under an hour!
Easy to apply
Quick color changes
Economical
Operates on standard 120v / 60Hz household current
Versatility with two settings for improved coverage
Low 15,000-volt setting
High 25,000-volt setting for multi-coat coverage over larger areas
Increased powder adhesion
Minimal overspray
Color-Coded cables for easy setup
More trigger-room for additional comfort
Larger ground clamp
Clear bottle allows you to see powder color, level and fluidizing action
Larger internal passages for improved powder flow
Refined power supply for more consistent coverage and powder-build

The PCS-150 Single Voltage Powder Coating System brings the benefits of powder coating right to your home garage or shop.

Coat and cure in under an hour!
Easy to apply
Extremely durable finish
Quick color changes
15,000-volt output
Economical

Color-Coded cables for easy setup
More trigger-room for additional comfort
Larger ground clamp
Clear bottle allows you to see powder color, level and fluidizing action
Larger internal passages for improved powder flow
Refined power supply for more consistent coverage and powder-build
This innovative, inexpensive powder-coat gun helps you do a professional-looking powder coating job right at home. All you need to add is compressed air (5-10psi), a dedicated electric oven and your favorite powder.

Why powder coat? Because it gives you one of the most economical, color-durable, and longest-lasting finishes available. You'll find powder-coated surfaces are far more resistant to chipping, scratches, fading, and wear than other finishes, and the color selection is virtually unlimited, with high and low gloss, metallic, and clear finishes available. And thanks to the UV resistance of many of the powders, colors stay bright and vibrant longer. Texture selections range from smooth surfaces to a wrinkled or matte finish, plus rough textures designed for hiding surface imperfections.

One 8-oz. bottle of powder (not included) covers the same area as 2-3 cans of spray paint, and clean-up is easy, since you can simply sweep-up the oversprayed powder. Contains no environmentally harmful solvents. HotCoat powder coating requires a 5-10psi compressed air source and dedicated electric oven (or toaster oven).
