Putting 1 Shot Paint Into A PET Bottle: Relaxing ASMR Sounds

A lot of pinstripers and some sign painters like to keep their paint in plastic bottles. If using an enamel, like 1Shot, you need to make sure to use PET bottles, so that the paint doesn't eat the plastic. Hope you enjoy this relaxing ASMR paint video.

Excellent procedure! Saves a lot of paint in the long run and produces the least mess.

I like bottles for fast access to paint and quick color selection.

Thanks for another great tip Jack, do you recommend a brand of bottles

[@JackFlemingArtistry]

As long as they are the right kind of plastic they should be good. I used to get mine from SKS Bottles, but recently have been getting them through Amazon.

Do you actually notice a difference using the thread tape? My Alphanamel always dries up in the PET like bottles they come in. Never thought of using thread tape. I even put the red stoppers they put under the lids back when I close it back up, but even then it still dries up. Worse then in the can even. Just get a little skim in my 1shot cans and others. Got a couple full bottles of alphanamel that are pretty much ruined from it.

@leebrock8386 I put pipe tape on it for peace of mind when it comes to leaking. I keep my bottles upside down, and have less skin because of that. They will still skin. It is the nature of the paint. You can filter the paint as it comes out of the tubes by putting a mesh screen over your cup if you put your paint into cups when you paint. Kafka sales some, or you can get them other places.

[@leebrock8386]

Gotcha makes sense. I do the same thing with the mesh, pretty much have to with the alphanamel once it starts to get a little thick. I just dont get how the whole bottle goes bad. Like literally turns solid lol I figured the aggrivating/messy stopper would help, if I left it in. But either way in or out the bottles of alpha go bad.

[@JackFlemingArtistry]

@leebrock8386 I could be wrong, but I think the Alpha has more drying agents and more pigment. Those factors may lead to faster drying. I have had Alpha and did have it dry faster, but not like you mention. I did keep mine upside down though.

Funnels are really cheap

[@Chad-Giga.]

You have to clean them and they aren't cheaper than a piece of magazine paper

[@JackFlemingArtistry]

I have nothing against store bought funnels. I keep a plastic one with my cans of paint, and a stack of filtered disposable paper funnels there too. Just chose not to use one this time. Wasn't necessary this go around, and I didn't feel like cleaning the plastic one. It's nice to have choices.

@@Chad-Giga. Really I would never have known that scrap paper was cheaper then buying a funnel... well I guess I learned something.

[@danbailey96]

@@JackFlemingArtistry I've did that several times with paints, oil even gas in a pinch.
