Createx Colors OTHER outdoor grade clearcoats! Why you should be using them!

[@louisliguore7199]

Thanks for the great informative on the differences between the Createx clears. I cover my paintings with the 56 series gloss or satin. I spray it with a Paasche VLS airbrush and the 1.05mm spray head, at 25 psi, but I have to reduce by 50% with 4011 to get good results.

I've used the 5601 top coat on paper and fabric ( t shirt over my artwork).. so you are not alone 😁.

[@TheAIRspace]

the 5601 is a softer resin these are outdoor grade. But I have the topcoats here as well. I use these more than any other waterbased clear. Although i have been using archival grade mineral spirits based varnish more on canvas... Mainly cause I get it in a spray can and I dont have to clean anything :/

Very interesting! I'm curious about what you're doing with paper--I do a fair amount of cards w/ envelopes using airbrushing combined with hand lettering, gold leaf, various pearls & micas, even going to try adding watercolor painting to the mix. Airbrushing on paper is challenging at times! I would also like to know more about your use of the 5601 on t shirts--I still paint the occasional shirt, though I much prefer working on leather.

@sped17373 I used the 5601 as experimental purpose . I used it on strathmore multimedia sketch paper to protect the art piece and give it a matte sheen. I've always liked matte on artwork and after 2 years, still holding on pretty good!. On t shirt to protect the art and keep it from fading and after many washes still holding on pretty good , not as good as I wished. Paint I used was createx colors. Cheers!.

Thanks to u I ordered gsi ps289 like ur stuff

The sound on your microphone sounds great to me. I used to use the 5603 on my artwork until they came out with the 4052.

[@TheAIRspace]

Thanks Dan! The 5603 is ok for interior art, but definitely not as durable as the 22 and of course the 52 has the uv blockers to protect against fading. But honestly for my indoor art thats not much of an issue. But I definitely wanted to point out the uv. Actually it came up recently where someone was using 4050 over glow in the dark paints and wondering why they werent "glowing" much. I use these a lot as a barrier coat on canvas after my main layers before I put in highlights. (i showed that on a cat video a bit back) Its a little thicker and heavier than bleed checker which I still use over candies. But lighter and easier to spray than 4050 series. of course im lucky that I have all of them to choose from freely!

Great video again Bill

[@TheAIRspace]

Thanks Steve!

What can be put over createx to keep it water proof?

[@KeramidakisDimitris]

Amazing infos mate ...can i spray with airbrush on a small patch in car or better with the uv blocker ?

[@TheAIRspace]

Sorry I missed this You need a catalyzed clearcoat on a vehicle. So definitely not recomended for automotive use. Not to mention the difficulty in blending a clear on a car.

[@KeramidakisDimitris]

@@TheAIRspace thank you ..

[@bertrandbador4758]

Super le video👍, je débute à l'aerographe et je commence à faire mes premières œuvres et je voulais juste savoir si les vernis sont déjà prêt à l'emploi ou sinon si il faut rajouter du réducteur ou du durcisseur avant de l'appliquer. Mercii d'avance

[@TheAIRspace]

no hardener required. A small amount of reducer will help it flow and level better. But it is dependant on what airbrush you are using! Thank you!

[@FoxiAndMolly]

One thought... will the thinner 5620 be relevant as candy2o carrier? (I struggle alot with the thick 4050, seems to go thicker for each month on the shelf?)

[@TheAIRspace]

you can use the 5620 as a carrier for the candy. I have. I probably should have mentioned that too. Great question!

[@PopsiccDesigns]

I used 4050 clear on a part that got rained on and it turned it completely blue/re wet the clear. Definitely not intended for even a tiny bit of water exposure :/

[@nightwolf357.]

I'm confused????? I thought that the UVL Clear (4050) was to keep colors from fading. And enhance the color... I was clearing my Fishing lures with the 4050, before putting on the epoxy clear... To keep the lures vibrant... OH well learn something new... Thanks for the info... Big C 😎

[@TheAIRspace]

yes the uvls is a blocker to keep paints from fading. however they block UV light, so it causes the reaction on Flourescent paint to not respond as much to uv light. Both flourescent and candies fade from sunlight exposure. other paints not nearly as much. Flourescent paints fade very quickly in sunlight, even under the best UV blocking clearcoats. (just a few months if left outside all day every day) Some colors faster than others. Candies if kept outdoors really need maximum uv protection, but they will noticeably fade over a year or two. That's another whole subject on why UV cure clear can never replace 2k clear. By uv reactive clearcoats nature it has no uv blockers (or it couldn't cure properly) Now all of my indoor art I dont really worry about fading, since im using pigments that dont fade quickly, Cars motorcycles im gonna have a 2k clear on. Lures spend most of their life in the tackle box I wouldn't worry over them much.
