Man I knew nothing about painting lol

Is it really necessary to remove the original paint when it's still in perfect condition (just the wrong color)? Can't I just rough it up a bit with sand paper and then paint over it?

Hi, your mask is not protecting against 2k clear coat as it contains isocyanates. You have to use it outdoors or in a well ventilated area.

Hi, can't you go with paint as you get to the factory base coat? Is primer needed?

Scraping is great for steel frames. I use a good heat gun and a putty knife. The semi-sharpness and hardness of the steel putty knife smoothly and easily scrapes heated paint off the frame. there are many lines and scraps of paint but no dust. If you do it uniformly, there is very little sanding to do. You just have to use finesse and an angle to the putty knife and be patient because you don't scrape until the paint is very hot.

Awsome job and great result for spray can ,, wow 👍

great video and clear explanation it cleared many doubts thank you

id rather wait for my house to be build for 10 years instead of it being 10 weeks and woosh there it goes

Just discovered your channel. Great content really

One has been sitting for 3 days and one has been sitting for an hour. I don't doubt that automotive paint is probably better but I'm also not surprised that it didn't leave any residue only after one hour compared to 3 days

You just saved me a lot of work. I'm going to paint my bike with epoxy paint after i sand it no need for primer

I like buying very strict tolerance basically everlasting stuff like calipers as high-end, but in general for basic tools I just buy the budget/aliexpress stuff and then I use them. Then the ones that turn out to be made out of gummi bear I just recycle and replace with higher quality tools. The ones that don't wear out or break I continue using. It's worth it refining the set a bit like this when aliexpress is around 3x - 10x cheaper than local stores here in Finland. But things that could be dangerous if they are strange like pressured stuff or high voltage and lubes/greases, I buy those from trusted EU shops.

Good review. I'm interested, but I think 18.5 inner rim width might be a bit small for the 35mm tyres I like to run. I'll have to see if ICANs can go wider. Cheers

Liked and subscribed right at the 17:23 mark and got that cheesy grin. Good stuff mate!

I hope they sent you some tools. You said their name often enough. That's a lot of good free advertising. 👍

what brand of vinyl you use for decals?

Thanks for this vid. Can you tell me how long between colour coat and clear coat please?

Hi mate, I have a new Giant Revolt 1, with GRX RX400 ( not sure what RX mean though ) group set. I read the stock cassette is 11-34. But any idea or suggestions, if I can put on a mtb cassette on it? ( 40T and above ). Thanks

A good solid and honest review where someone has no agenda is hard to find but Sir you have nailed it. Thank you for this and for taking the time to share with us👍🏻❤🇮🇹🇬🇧

Hey, i made a mistake of painting my motorcycle with a 1k primer. Its been around 3 days and it still feels not fully dry. Sanding the primer makes it cake the sandpaper, but when i push on it really hard it does not leave any finger marks. Can i paint 2k acrylic paint over it or should i completely strip it off and prime it with 2k primer?

Is an etch primer good to start with then put on an epoxy primer? Or would I be appropriate with just an epoxy primer. Just wondering as I’m doing a low rider frame and don’t know how to paint

You could try Belton for a cheaper alternative too, it's supposed to be based on automotive paint. idk if anything will beat actual automotive paint though.

Where/how did you create your stencils?

Hello bro, what is the name of the that paint color white and you mixed to your metalic purpple at 2:13

How to i male that mask at home? I want to paint my yt indutries and I have no clue how to start

can i still apply the paint without removing the oxide layer?

Thank you, really useful videos! At what stage is it better to apply ammonium chloride? I watched the other video, and you degrease the frame prior to priming. Im presuming the following stages: 1. Sanding down 2. Ammonium Chloride 3. Degrease prior primer 4. Primer 5. Paint 6. Clear coat Also, will this work on the aluminium frame with some oxidation under the paint? (Paint bubbling in some areas)

why is this THE ONLY video that explained EVERYTHING omfg, thank you

I get the same results with cheap dish soap and water…..my cost 4$ max and that last a bunch of washes… if you have to use a sponge then the product doesn’t do anything cheap soap wouldn’t do…

Nice color, too bad the chain is going wrong trough the derailler.

Cool but soooooo many adds, had to give up

Does anyone know what to do to protect my frame after my chain scratched my frame and exposed bare metal?

You candy is 1:1

Great Video - technical info and practical advice that answers many questions. Thanks!

Jason, when in the process of clear coat do I add my decals?

Great video thanks.. When I recently sprayed my bike I made stencils and went OK, but I masked the rest of the frame to protect from overspray some of the edges of the tape were visible in the base coat upon removal!! I didn't press edges down hard and used very low tack tape... My base colour must have been too thick/not fully cured?? even after about 3 days drying.

*New Subscriber* That was very interesting. I had no idea that orange peel can be eliminated from paint with polishing. A friend bought a new BMW a couple of years ago, and the orange peel on some concave curves is bad. I didn't mention it to him, but I would have been very unhappy with it. Looking forward to catching up on more of your videos. All the best, and greetings from Prague, CZ

How long do I wait to reassemble?

I bought the two horse 13 gallon stand up vevcor😮 my old tank rusted out at the bottom because I failed to drain it😢 this one's much quieter I use it to spray also air nailers power tools and it keeps up👍

I really like the gold with the moose on the inside of the fork. The little details like this really make it look more custom. I found it interesting that you ended up in the position where the whole bike was sprayed with gloss coat. May have saved some time if you'd gloss cleared the decals you'd just painted in gold before removing all the masking. Then given you had to mask up the gold decals to paint the green areas that had got scratched, you could've sprayed mat clear over that area straight away. Either way glad you're happy with the outcome!

I use Muc Off Lubes Dry & Wet I clean the bike using Dawn Platinum diswasing on drivetrain = Fabulous :)

Leaves a mark on your forehead from sweat bead

Finally i found a possible solution! Thank you I am gonna order immediately

I'm redoing my egg chair, not a bike but this is super helpful, tough not what I wanted to hear (as an inpatient Adhd gremlin). What grit do you recommend for supper uneven spray primer?

This job of painting a bicycle frame is time consuming and costly I would not attempt to paint a bicycle frame myself no way.

Heading for a rim-based version with DT 240 hubs.

RUINED WITH ADS, well done greedy uploader

You need to use the brush to agitate the spray into more foam

Great tutorial! Really like that blue too. Thanks for sharing!

Is that small compressor really enough for the sprayguns?
