Not seen that one but I watch Monster Garage, Jessie James, West Coast Choppers and the likes. Your right the guy that does the paint for Jessie James is unbeleiveable

I painted my first car a couple months ago and I have no idea how he moves that fast. When they show him painting his hand is flying with the gun. I had to go slow for coverage. I`ve got 3 more cars and a panel to paint coming up to do some experimenting on. I`ve found painting isn`t that hard to do, it`s the abundance of lousy shops that make it seem that "perfect" paint is hard to come by.
