Thanks for the tip on hitting the tight spots first. I was doing the opposite. I find that I am spraying air more than frame because the nozzle of a can isn't designed for such a small target. I am tempted to get a proper spray gun where I can tune the nozzle and delivery rate. I guess that brings a lot of complication with regard to paint mixing and equipment cleaning.
@DCTaylor2814 жыл бұрын
I agree that it makes things a lot more complicated. For example it’s not uncommon for a painter to have three separate guns. One for primer, another for base and another for clear. That being said, I’m super happy with how mine turned out. If you have time, check my channel for the build I did with this frame, turned out pretty nice. Good luck with your project and thanks for watching.

Encouraging and helpful video. However, I disagree on your comment that automotive paint such as Dupli-Color (lacquer not enamel which is terrible IMO) tends to flake. If it is flaking and chipping on you, this is likely due to improper substrate prep. The primer you used in this video is rather generic and not very good IMO. It also has a poor nozzle and solvent combination that causes it to spatter out of the can. But most importantly, it is not an etching primer. All metal surfaces should also be throughly degreased prior to shooting an etching primer. A better alternative yet is to shoot a catalyzed 2K primer such as SprayMax (German) or Car-Rep (Finnish). 2K primers are very stable once cured and provide an excellent surface for DC or Montana 1K base coat which won’t flake when properly applied in multiple thin coats until coverage is achieved. These lacquers flash in about 10 min so multiple coats can be shot in the space of an hour for consistent colour. But…, lacquer cannot be left as is without a protective clear coat. Tremclad basically contains the clear in it (the paint is also likely enamel based) but it’s a 1K product. The recommended clear coat for a professional finish is also a 2K clear again such as SprayMax or Car-Rep. SprayMax is an acrylic urethane 2K clear which can be applied atop any clean base coat once this has fully dried. Proper application of SprayMax gives a deep gloss which can be polished and buffed to yield professional results. The product is the same stuff that pro paint shops put in their guns. The nozzle action is also similar to that of a gun. As an option, SprayMax comes in lower solids satin and matte finishes. However, these cannot be polished as this would smooth the surface removing the scattered light satin and matte effect of these clears. The cleaning and maintenance of these finishes is also more laborious than that of gloss clears. Once fully cured (8 days or so), catalyzed 2K clears are without equal in the finishing business and result in a hard long lasting (i.e., chip proof) top coat which is also impervious to UV degradation.

That’s weird, when I spray painted my bmx bikes frame I used a paint stripper and it worked great, it was either Krylon or Rustolium aircraft remover, pretty sure it was Rustolium brand and not Krylon. It came out as a wet foamy liquid and after five minutes all the paint was fizzing and bubbling up and then 10 minutes of wiping all of the paint off and I was pretty much done, after I got all the paint and the paint remover off the frame I had so sand a little bit on the welds to get the rest off but in total it took less than an hour to have my frame completely down to the bare metal.

Everything functions properly kzbin.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Nothing was damaged in the box aside from a decal on the fork. The decal was missing a piece of a corner but I ended up peeling them off anyways. Assembly is easy BUT make sure you tune up the derailleurs. Both the front and rear need adjusting. I'd advise going to a bike shop but I opted out and put in 10+ hours with the help of KZbin. Ended up fraying a shifter cable but all in all I learned from the experience. The Brakes work well but the front caliper needs adjusting or at least mine did because the rotor was rubbing against the pads. Make sure you swap out the seat, grips, and pedals. For the short run you'll be fine though. I've read that this bike isn't built yet for hard trails but I just need it for the city. PA has some of the worst roads and being in a mountain this was a great choice. Worth the investment!
