I’m about to begin my customizing journey after watching your channel for a couple of years. Thank you for the content! I’m curious to know, are there any other notable brands of paints for sneakers besides Angelus? I’m always eager to learn what’s out there especially before I get started on a project.

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

That’s aweosme to hear! Yes there a few other brands out there, I haven’t found anything else to really compete with angelus

[@saheli1326]

Hello, thank you for your excellent education My question is, how to paint the inner surface of the shoe and does the color inside the shoe not disappear due to sweating?

Hey I have a question unrelated to shoes but can you use the Angelous paints to customize a volleyball?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Yes you can!

[@shawnsinclair2074]

Your the goat my guy!! In your opinion what’s the best vinyl to use for stencils? Thanks again for all you insight

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Oracal 811 is the way to go!

You happen to have a link on any video or anything? All good if it’s to much trouble

Hi I need advice ASAP PLEASE! I FILED the cleat TOO hard and it seems damaged. What should I do?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

It’s impossible to say without seeing the damage. You can email me pics and I can try to advise. Otherwise just generally speaking sometimes you just need to smooth it out further with more sanding, or the new angelus leather repair filler might help as well in some situations

[@f410berrysartYT]

What colors did you use??

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

I show all the colors used at about the :56 mark!

Hey brotha. Is it bad to prep the shoe even tho i don’t plan on starting them this weekend? Spray the adhesive before i paint them tho right?

[@user-yb4bx1jc9r]

So what’s the best place to find different stencils?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Right here www.etsy.com/shop/DeJesusCustoms

[@user-yb4bx1jc9r]

@ awesome I’ll definitely order a few of those! Also recently purchased a Cricut and I want to do a pair of cements next. Where can I find the stencil to print out on vinyl?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

@ my go to vinyl is Oracal 811

[@user-yb4bx1jc9r]

@ sorry must not have been specific enough. I was referring to the SVG or PNG file

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

@@user-yb4bx1jc9r gotcha, you might be able to find some high res versions on Google.

[@TheBloodPoolKid]

Looking for advice. I’m working with a pair of NIKE VAPOR UNTOUCHABLE 3 ELITE. All white. The design calls for yellow toe faded into blue. The material is nike’s flyknit. I practiced on some fabric sneakers. The issue I’m having the over lap of blue and yellow appear green no matter which I lay first. I lay first color down, let air dry, then heat set, lay second color down and I get green in the gradient. Suggestions?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Did you do the middle bar nice and wide with much less yellow than blue in the cup?

[@TheBloodPoolKid]

@@DeJesusCustomFootwear thank you for the reply. Yes. I ended up with a bluish green transition. I will try with even less yellow in there.

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

@@TheBloodPoolKid no you want less blue in there. Blue will overpower the yellow.. after you lay the wide middle bar take your original colors and spray back on top of there from a further distance

[@harryhillary2274]

What's the name of the paint use

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Angelus! Linked in description if you want to try some out

[@harryhillary2274]

I think I have to use thinner coats.

Thinner coats are always optimal

[@kntwing23]

Can I use a crayon instead?

[@redmonjackson932]

How do you find shoe vendors, I've struggled with this and continue to struggle today. Nobody wants to tells you their shoe vendor unless you pay 100-200 bucks.

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

It’s very hard to find one. You can’t get wholesale, so unless you’re lucky enough to just find a good connection with somebody then you’re stuck paying retail
