@AsimPaints11 ай бұрын
@@eddiexx Thanks! You mean a spray can with a nozzle that sprays more finely? Yes, they make spray cans that are designed for hobby painting, like Tamiya or Testors. But they're usually small cans yet even more expensive than regular spray paints, but they work great if you don't have access to an airbrush. Even still, the proper method of spray painting is to start off the object and end off the object so you're still wasting a decent amount of the spray paint.

Why the F didn't I think of this? Cheers bro, thanks again.
When I am ready to pour the paint out of a rattle can, I like to use a utility knife (razor) to puncture the can. Not only does this prevent the possibility of fire while using a drill bit, but it also prevents the possibility of metal shavings from getting into the paint. After the propellant escapes the can, I then cut the upper portion of the can off either with the same utility knife, or a pair of tin snips, and allow the can to sit for about 15 or 20 minutes to allow any remaining propellant to escape, occasionally stirring with a mixing stick to help. I then will pinch the can to form a pouring point, similar to a measuring cup in your kitchen. Doing this will also allow you to get the marble out so you can add it to the new storage bottle. Doing this also helps to get as much of the paint out of the rattle can as possible.

What my buddy uses is nitrocellulose automotive paint - trade name DUCO - most auto trade paint suppliers have it and it can be color matched. It needs to be thinned a bit with normal thinners and is about a quarter of the price of a spray can for 250 milli-liters (dont know what that is in imperial measurements) However I have to say that some of the metallic and other special types are not available in nitrocellulose over the counter so this method of "harvesting" those paints is good to know. What I really found interesting in this video is the bottles and especially the caps you use.

When I was a kid I use to cut these cans open after they were empty and recover the balls, they were great for the sling shot lol. I noticed you didn't mention mixing the contents of the can before emptying it into the bottle, I would think that not all the solids would not come out from the bottoms of the cans just by pouring them out. Personally I would make sure the paint was completely mixed or shaken before drilling the first hole so that I was getting all the solids out of the bottom of the can, buts thats just because it makes sense and my Grandmother always drilled into me "Waste not want not" course I never understood her lol, she would literally scrape the butter off the wrapper with a butter knife, but she lived through the Depression and everything was completely used. I seen another video where the guy just sprayed the can into a cup and then poured it into a bottle. This is a great idea and I agree about the overspray, also you showed us some very good points here, great video and very informative, also had some good laughs.

Thanks for watching! Yeah, I'd recommend giving the can a nice mix after drilling the holes to let the propellant escape. Just don't shake it before drilling the holes as you want as much propellant separated from the paint as possible. Spraying directly in a cup works if you just want a small amount. And yeah, waste not is good advice, you can definitely still reuse the ball bearing in the new bottle, or save it in the event you need to sling shot someone lol.

If you cut the can just below the rim you can let the air out with a small cut. Then when the gas stops cut around half of the can and make a spout then pour out the paint and the ball bearings at once. Do not cap the paint for a while to let absorbed gas free then check frequently after capping for a few hours or days. Cold will take days high temperatures will degas quicker. Drilling the can on a curve can be dangerous. Fingers do not like drills and if the small drill breaks it is likely to make a bit more mess in the thumb than a small hole. Don't forget good drills also have sharp edges on the lands (sides)

Decanting is great. I'll add just because it wasn't said in the video, it does significantly reduce the shelf life. Only decant what you plan to use within about a 6 month period. It's best to let the can sit at least overnight so the propellant all separates and let's the paint settle at the bottom. And whatever you do, do NOT shake the can or you'll have yourself a heck of a mess. 😂 I also cut the cans open afterwards and save the balls to reuse.

if you put masking tape on the place where you want to drill - it will not slide

Not to mention Rustoleum is far better quality paint than any airbrush brand paint you’re gonna buy anyway. As a graffiti artist I’ve painted walls and trains with all different brand paints and nothing outlasts rustoleum.

you made us learn from your mistakes, you get a sub.but wouldnt be better to just peel the top off, instead of drilling to remove the paint ? also i guess a vacumm chamber would remove the gas ?
@AsimPaints7 ай бұрын
Peel of the top of the spray can? Like the nozzle and spray valve? I'm sure you could do something like that. A vacuum chamber would definitely help speed up the removal of propellant from the paint if you have one! Thanks for watching!
@danieljanssen458010 ай бұрын
Why don’t you just turn the can upside down and let the propellant escape that way….its MUCH SAFER!

Turn it upside and spray it out like normal? That works too, though some cans are designed to be sprayed from any angle. This way is easier and quicker, there's really no danger unless you drill a large hole.

A lot of cans can still be sprayed upside down now. Gotta watch what you do that with 😂

Rather long winded video, as well turning upside down, when you empty tin into another bottle cut tin open and put a ball bearing into your new container for mixing.

Why don't you just spray the paint into a small glass jar and then let it sit to degass. A whole lot less trouble and you still have a spray can to be used in the normal way should you choose to.
@AsimPaints7 ай бұрын
That's great if you just want a small amount, but for doing multiple cans I think this method is easier. Just learn from my mistakes and you won't make a mess lol

I guess it's about availability. Even where I do groceries have spray paint, but I never see airbrush paint in my life

Instead of drilling into a pressurized can, which is really fucking stupid, get a can of wd40 with the nozzle and hose. Use that nozzle and hose to transfer the paint.
@AsimPaints8 ай бұрын
It's only stupid if the person with the drill is stupid. It's only pressurized until it's not lol.

Good video but too long. Glad he didn’t have to drill multiple holes. Good trick for airbrushes.

That gold was metalflake or was it metallic? I'm just starting airbrush
@AsimPaints9 ай бұрын
Metallic. It gives a really smooth metal look instead of a glittery type look.
