Spend a weekend painting with Gene Winfield, Jon Kosmoski and Rich Evans!
Gene “Windy” Winfield has spent more than 60 years perfecting his blended painting techniques and earning a much-deserved reputation as one of the world’s most prestigious customizers. You’ve seen his work on TV series like Star Trek and Get Smart, and on the big screen in features like Back to the Future, Robocop, and Blade Runner.
Rich Evans is the founder of Huntington Beach Bodyworks, and designer of Incubus custom wheels. You’ve seen him on SpellCasters, Monster Garage, and Junkyard Wars. Rich’s stunning style of custom painting uses tattoo-style graphics to to create an inimitable effect. His recently acclaimed projects include the Skull King Ford F150, and Hardcore Knight Ford Mustang GT.
How do these classes work?
So, we’re going to sit around and watch the pros paint all weekend, right?
No way! This is a hands-on class! Over the course of this 3-day class, you’ll learn the secrets to the million-dollar paint job, and you’ll put your knowledge to use each day, first painting parts, then a fiberglass form designed by Gene Winfield, and finally, under supervision of the masters, you’ll help to create a stunning custom paint job on a complete car.
What exactly can you expect to learn?
The short answer: you’ll learn the Winfield Way. In this unique class, Gene Winfield will teach you the precise method he’s developed for getting perfect results every time: from mixing paint through application and finishing. You’ll learn the exact proportions and timing you need to get optimal results in mixing your paint. You’ll learn how to configure, use, and maintain the tools of the trade, and you’ll get plenty of practice!
Best of all, you’ll learn to apply blended paint for breathtaking results! Gene also reveals his time-tested finishing practices, which yield a perfect, glassy paint job, free of the dreaded “orange peel.” Working varied colors in layers, you’ll achieve depth of color and subtle contouring you never dreamed you could create with your own hands.
What will you take away from this experience?
In addition to the knowledge and confidence you’ll gain from this invaluable class, you’ll go home with a certification in the Winfield Method, and your custom-painted fiberglass form to hang in your own shop, or, if you’ve got a very patient wife, in the living room! Graduates of this course also receive a discount on House of Kolor paint, so they can put their new skills to use on their own projects!
Where, When, and What should you bring?
Classes are from 9 am to approximately 5 pm each day. Bring your can-do attitude and a notebook. Everything else you need will be provided, including coveralls, masks, painting equipment and paint.
