[@RonGotSole]

Big thank you to my family over at Angelus. Much appreciated for the opportunity and platform to showcase my work. Always rocking with #TeamAngelus 💪🏾

[@alexmckee2268]

Those shoes were teeeerrrrribllee

[@packagedkarma9175]

Alex Mc'kee you have a bad taste in shoes

[@peacepeepdesigns]

Do you ever seal your shoes?

[@pjmac550355]

Yo I love your work @RonGotSole... I did a toe box on an air flight 89 and it’s cracking basically right away at the upper portion before the tongue. I didn’t prep it properly. Already know that. But did you use the duller as a sealent? I was using the Matt acrylic ... and it gave it a shine I didn’t like. Would love some advice

[@Jeypeee]

I liked this tutorial, he seemed to go over a few small steps/observations that a lot of the other tutorials skip over because they assume it's already known.

[@scottishkicks8444]

Jordan Parrish i get what your saying but if your noticing they are missing out steps then clearly you don’t need them

[@Jeypeee]

Scottish Kicks yeah I just like the reassurance and seeing what I’ve maybe been doing... not necessarily wrong but different I guess

[@sneaker.klinic]

People need to realize the point of the tutorial..plus I learned something here. The mis-matched colours looks cool to me. Most just hate it because it wasn’t a “crazy designed custom” on an older Pure $ AJ4 and thought it was ruined. 😂

[@optimafootworks9554]

this is what i came for - tip after tip after tip from a pro in the game! 😎 definitely trying out this duller technique - thx!

[@skyb1rd4]

The stencil really gives it some depth! I appreciate the tip on sanding the high wear areas, as I primarily do kids shoes. I was wondering why you didn’t use a finisher or clear matte spray, does the sanding step make additional protection unnecessary? I’ll definitely be checking out all of your videos.

[@roxastwilight5951]

How tf does your comment say a week ago? 😯

I don't like the way he paints the shoe. Definitely not looking factory.

[@michaelbdumaguing2355]

Thats what I thought too but He’s just explaining what to do on other materials of the shoe

[@3cdesignz152]

Would the 2hard be flexible enough to paint a whole sneaker with plastic or plastic like surface such as maybe a foam posite?

[@RonGotSole]

It would help with the adhesion. But it's more important to prep the surface. Multiple passes with sand paper to help the paint have something to grab onto

[@AngelusBrand]

2- Hard may not be flexible enough for that and could cause some cracking. For something like a foamposites we suggest some light sanding and adhesion promoter. Then apply light coats of just straight Angelus paint.If you have any more questions feel free to contact us at [e-mail] kzbin.info/www/bejne/pn6cl2mbgrOlprs

Very useful video for the beginners bro! 👏👏👏👏👏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@AngelusBrand]

Thank you so much 👍

[@Limps]

These shoes fuego 🔥 I just made my own custom shoes with this paint and I fell in love

[@squeezekicks9491]

Good stuff

[@flapdrol134]

Damn, really wanted to see how he did the stencils (presuming he did it with brushes instead of airbrush). Fire custom and great video!

[@quiksilvababe]

how do you prep FOAM parts of shoes though? these tutorials are great, but doesnt cover the foamy parts of sneakers. :/

[@pimbacrew783]

Fantastic

[@Thelivelyone]

Is the paint waterproof? Maybe sily question 🤔

[@AngelusBrand]

Great question! We don't advertise them to be waterproof, but they are waterproof to an extent. To completely waterproof the paints, you can apply our Water and Stain Repellent to the shoe after it is fully dry.

[@Thelivelyone]

@@AngelusBrand thanks 😊

[@dannyballsy8596]

Do u heat set 2 hard as well? And is it tgree to five minutes in one go? Thanks angelus 👍

[@AngelusBrand]

No. The 2-Hard will not need to be heat set.

[@chellie581]

Aw, man! I was hoping to see how you did the midsoles and eyelets! Still, sweet work!♥️

[@shariamall2453]

chellie581 Exactly, that’s the only reason I started watching the video b/c they never show it or go into detail on how to do it.

[@AngelusBrand]

Sorry about that but we already have a few videos that go over those steps. Here's the links if you want to check them out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJ6re2djhNRrfck kzbin.info/www/bejne/amiuY2mlbalmZ8U kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoC1q2ugmMakf6s Let us know if you have any questions.

[@lailasalas3437]

Hi angelus, I need some help. I wanna paint a pair of white canvas old Skool high top vans with neon paint. I was wondering if you have a tutorial video and preparation I need to know.

[@AngelusBrand]

Check out our other videos! We do have a few that are specific with applying paint to canvas.

[@newkirk7591]

I have some air max 90s that the white on the lower sides of the sneakers turned to yellow. I’m thinking of painting them white so they can look brand new again, what color white do U recommend???

[@AngelusBrand]

You can try our Flat White. It may not be the exact match so make sure to test it out first to make sure it works for you.

[@antjayendeavors]

This the most janky custom they had on here yet

[@dannyballsy8596]

Hi. Do u only sand leather or can u sand pig skin also the same way? Many thanks angelus

[@AngelusBrand]

You can sand pigskin, however it is a little softer, so we recommend a higher grit.

[@jandyllaguno7416]

Hi Angelus! Hope everyone is doing well over there. Got a question for you about this custom I did months ago on a Jordan 3 Unite (Red). I did a custom to make it a Black Cement colorway but just a few days ago, I got paint cracking in the toe area. How do you suggest in fixing it up? I plan to just paint it along the crease line but not sure if that should do it. Thanks!

[@AngelusBrand]

Hey! email us with some photos and we can take a look. [e-mail]

[@Blk_NRG]

I have the same problem with the same custom I dyed the shoe and and everything I think I may have added to many coats

[@TheSco415city]

Clean.

[@allan7085]

yo i’m trying to buy the leather deglaser joint and it says warning it can cause cancer and some other things do i need to wear gloves and a mask to protect my self? or is good without gloves and mask please respond

[@AngelusBrand]

It's strictly user preference but It's probably a good idea to use some kind of respirator and gloves when working with Acetone or our Leather Preparer and Deglazer. Some of the chemicals could be harmful to your body.

[@nickp3173]

The deglazer is basically acetone. And even if you wear plastic disposable gloves, the minute the acetone touches them they disintegrate anyways almost immediately. Just have to man up and let your fingers get all dried out and stained when removing paint. It's not fun lol

[@kacey552]

When blacking out the midsole do you add 2HARD?

[@AngelusBrand]

It is suggested, but the preparation is key 🔑

[@Briggs13ful]

currently trying to paint some 1s. How do i get paint out of the holes on the toe box??

[@AngelusBrand]

Use a toothpick!

[@tyronewilkerson348]

Purple and gold

[@terrybell5957]

If you’ve used flat black or created a Matt colour with duller do you still Matt clear coat?

[@AngelusBrand]

We would not add a matte finish unless you add duller into the finisher. Remember, all our paints contain a little finisher in it already. So ultimately, applying a finisher is optional.

[@usernamenotfound7479]

Hey so I have a pair of single day 4s tht i basically acetone the hell out of nd made them black with red accents and uses krylon matte finisher to seal the deal well a week or two after I noticed cracking and I just beat them until they looked like a camo variant of the tattoo 4s well i jus got the inspiration to restore them so i acetone them again made them all white nd sand papered the shoes then I applied Angelus red leather dye but I jus have questions may I email yhu guys pictures or something

[@AngelusBrand]

Absolutely! You can email us at [e-mail]

[@JGLil1]

hello what grit sand paper did you use

[@AngelusBrand]

He started with 320 and worked up to 600.

[@randomnessreviewstv4356]

In this video, when the sandpaper grit is shown and says "320-600", does that mean you lightly sand the shoe starting at 320 and moving up to 600, or does it mean to just use one sandpaper of any grit within the 320-600 range?

[@AngelusBrand]

In most cases starting out with 320 and moving up to 600.

[@randomnessreviewstv4356]

@@AngelusBrand okay cool, thank you!

[@alexismadrigal6293]

What you put at the end??? Some paint protection spray??? Or nothing???

[@AngelusBrand]

All it takes is proper prep and application. The paints are durable on their own so applying our finisher is optional.

[@XxChrisWestxX]

What do you do when experiencing minor cracking before it gets major?

[@nashif16]

after you get done painting the shoe, brush it with a thin coat of Angelus Matte finish

[@mlrd6622]

You should've used 'Black'. Flat colours contain a duller and make the areas that are painted brittle.

[@mobilegenshinplayer]

Do you need to heat it or is that just for fAbric?

[@AngelusBrand]

That is just for the fabric, however some use the heat gun to speed up the drying process.

[@dannyb3174]

After you paint your shoe do you add the angelus finisher or is it optional??

[@scottishkicks8444]

Danny Topete doesn’t have to be an angelus finisher but it does need a finisher

[@AngelusBrand]

Angelus Finisher is optional. It should provide a little extra protection but it's main purpose is to give the project a nice sheen. If the shoe is prepped well and the paints are applied correctly then the custom will be durable and last with no finisher needed.

[@lileodea1299]

Fyi, gray is a better base for red.

[@andrewsegura3078]

Can you use the angeles leather paint for the midsoles of airmax pluses?

[@AngelusBrand]

Sorry for the delayed response. Please email us at [e-mail] if you are still looking for information. Thank you!

[@irinalynch5764]

Hey! What’s your best tips for doing writing on the shoes??

[@AngelusBrand]

First and foremost you will always want to prep the shoe first. Then outlining it with a pen or pencil first.

[@dinesheam]

😍😍

[@e36Henry]

Thanks this really helps

[@perrycustoms3999]

Would could I do to prevent the paint from cracking on the crease spots of slip on vans?

[@AngelusBrand]

You can try to lightly sand them and then prep them using our leather preparer.

[@davud.0754]

How percent do you have to use if your applying 2-haed

[@davud.0754]

Hard*

[@AngelusBrand]

50% 2-Hard for flexible surfaces, 75% 2-Hard for rigid surfaces.

[@hugolopez2745]

Están chidoris

[@aijy532]

Angelus Preparer is an Acetone bottle ?

[@AngelusBrand]

Angelus Preparer and Deglazer contains acetone. Acetone may be used to prep the leather for paint and remove the factory finisher

[@miguelvilla7449]

Dope*

[@buddthi3090]

Did you accidentally forgot to say to put on a finisher, or was this intentional?

[@AngelusBrand]

Finisher is optional. The main purpose of Finisher is to add a sheen to your project. It will protect against minor scratches and scrapes but its not required.

[@vloxovloorz9236]

Wheres the finisher isent that what really makes it durable so the paint dont chip

[@AngelusBrand]

Nope, actually finisher is optional and has very little to do with the paints durability. Proper prep is the main step to a custom that won't chip. Finisher will help against minor scratches and scrapes but ultimately is used to give the project a desired sheen.

[@oldskoolmad5673]

@@AngelusBrand Wish i'd known that before I bought it, most of the other customisers on your channel use finisher and most appear to use matte (+ duller) to get a matt finish, no sheen (or is it sheen but no shine? ... I've confused myself now, haha )

Nice work but the paint work on the jumpman on the tongues didn't look that good. On a scale of 1-10 i give it a 7.

Thomas Mendez There are tons of videos on how to custom shoes on the channel. This one is specific for durability and to show you extra helpful tips on how to keep the paint last. Check out the rest of their tutorials and you’ll learn a lot from start to finish.

[@thomasmendez243]

joey koo Yeah and it was pretty lacking there too, as others have pointed out. No top coat mentioned or shown. The artist did a good job, they did a bad job of editing.

[@joeykoo9407]

Thomas Mendez actually there was no finisher added or it would have been mentioned. A top coat is not necessarily needed. It’s all about the preparation. FYI all the paints have a finisher in it so ultimately it’s optional. Respectfully, This video is just not for you it sounds. Once you’ve taken a stab at this then this video will make more sense. I suggest watching the other videos to learn more you’ll get a lot of dope knowledge about the custom game. Enjoy your weekend. All love my friend 🤜🏽🤛🏼

[@thomasmendez243]

joey koo Respectfully, I’ve done a pair of Pure Moneys before and know how Angelus holds up without a topcoat. You’re right; I’m not a fan of how this video was done. That’s why I mentioned it. You have a good night as well.
