Top 10 Spray Paint Tricks HD

[@rohawaha]

This video is seven years old and still helping people , I paint camouflage on guns , I mean I use milspec colors and paint for exact match camouflage , multicam arid , multicam tropical and other popular patterns. The cause for clear coat bubbling / melting paint has been a mystery for me until I discovered your video. Thank you for putting in the work to help others .

[@NoahSpurrier]

Here are some of my painting tips. Wipe the nozzle often. Paint tends to collect at the nozzle hole. After a while this build-up of paint can affect the spray jet and cause heavy drops to form resulting in spattering. Overspray can travel very, very far from your workpiece. Beware of spraying in your home. You may find a dusting of color on surfaces you assumed couldn't possibly have gotten hit with paint. Spraying into a cardboard box can help. An exhaust fan helps. Warmer and drier climates are better for painting than colder ones. Beware of painting in a chilly environment. The solvent in the paint will cool your workpiece. The workpiece can get cold enough that condensation will start to form. You may not be able to see the condensation, but this moisture will affect the surface texture and can create adhesion problems with subsequent coats. This problem is particularly troublesome on metal. This is also a problem when someone has just cleaned the surface with acetone. Acetone will chill the metal below the dew point. Acetone may be a great way to dry a surface, but if you don't warm up the workpiece immediately afterward then the cold part will quickly replace all that moisture with condensation from the air. Heat metal parts to drive out water. A metal workpiece may seem bone dry, but moisture can be absorbed into the surface matrix of metal. I bake metal parts in a toaster oven for 20 minutes. I like them to get to about 300 degrees. Then I let them cool to around 110 to 120 degrees, which is just about too hot to hold. You can also heat with a propane torch. Some paints work very differently than you expect. Paints dry and cure through a variety of methods. Some solvent borne paints can take 12 to 24 hours to "dry". They usually come with a solvent thin them and allow them to be sprayed, but this solvent will dry in a few minutes. This leaves a layer of chemicals that are still sticky until they cure. They don't "dry" in the sense that most people think. They don't outgas or evaporate any additional chemicals beyond those solvents used for thinning and spraying. The liquid turns into a solid. In that sense they become dry, but they don't "dry out". UV light or oxygen in the air triggers chemical reactions that turn the liquid into a solid. Most of the "paint smell" may be gone from these paints, but they will remain sticky for hours. Air flow will not help these paints to dry faster, but heat can speed the cure time. Another problem when dealing with these types of paints is that some surfaces can slow or even totally inhibit curing of the paint. The paint may never dry! Usually this happens when the workpiece is made of certain types of plastic or rubber. These contain chemicals that react with the paint and block the curing process. A problem is that most consumer paint manufacturers are vague or misleading about exactly what type of chemistry their paint is based on. Marketing terms like "epoxy paint" may mean that the paint simply contains epoxy solids which affect color and surface finish, or it may mean that the paint itself is epoxy based and cures to a solid through an epoxy polymerization process.

I'm shocked! I'm a teacher and I just left a fairly negative review because of it's click baitiness and lack of any meat to its promise. One of the 10 things....pick up bed liner makes other cool stuff, trust me! I'm not giving you any ideas of what kinds of stuff or show pics, but my friends make things with this material so I know it can be done. Of course that's a bit of a ridiculous portrayal, but it's a lot like I felt watching the video. Even when he was spraying through the shelf liner and lace (I believe), we could see it there and he actually did it on camera but failed to show up. Idea 1! Spray paint over lave and leave a beautiful negative image. Do it, but never show a complete shot....no one understands why you didn't win an Emmy. The audience is dumbfounded because they believe this person could have won awards with this idea, but dropped the ball!

@@rileycover1316 This is true, I have zero hesitation or misgivings regarding thorough research when I'm about to do even the most familiar projects, and I often learn something new (or get reminded of something I may be forgetting) when poring over a number of videos on whatever subject is at hand. It's essentially the same task as studying up the night before an exam.

Riley Cover, how is he an idiot?

[@markoppa4765]

Ernst Boye 6kl, so we’re just gonna call him an idiot because of one mistake? What about the other tips?

[@torpewtoonson7521]

@Ernst Boye 6kl - just to be clear, the 'flow' he's talking about is after you've sprayed it onto whatever you're working on - he' saying that a warmer paint will flow better (that is, will even itself out better) on whatever you spray it on. That is an entirely correct statement - which is why most cans state operating temps between 15-25 degrees C (because if colder, they can flow really badly and give you an uneven paint). You're correct about the pressure, however that normally makes little difference, as the pressure in the can is already way above what is neccesary to give an even spray from the can, and the paint doesnt rely much on the speed of the paint, as better results come from slow and even coats, so increased pressure doesn't help much, as you're not attempting to push the paint harder onto the surface, you're actually just letting it 'fall' onto the surface and then flow outward and even itself out. Hopefully that clears things up :)

All the film school critics must have missed the part where spray painters actually learn something. What difference does it make if the video doesn't win the "best camera & sound" award? People who want to learn don't care about the presentation-quality of the teaching material. They're just happy as hell that it's available. If you learned something... the video was excellent, despite the low budget. Thank you for the upload. Much appreciated.

[@SGtheSavage]

Clear coat when wet it's a cool effect. Binds with paint creating a solid fast drying polished look. If you add a silicon to the base coat it will cell creating an organic miscropic effect and this especially looks cool on galaxy/ space and sub aquatic scene pieces.

you can clear coat after about half an hour on a warm day if you build it up with a dust coat or two before giving a full coat to seal the surface and prevent paint crack thats what we do in the trade else it would take for ever to paint cars.

[@richardcraniumdicksinn3959]

Wasn't sure what to expect at the beginning of this video. I was impressed with the tips and ideas you showed. I've been a bodyman / painter for 35 years. It's nice to see peoples prodjects turn out better than what they expected. One trick I would like to tell you about is painting tiger stripes ,zebra stripes, bumblebee stripes ... Zebra stripes. will start with white base, color coat. Let it tack off for masking stripes. Depending on the size of the project, I will use 3/4 inch or 1 1/2 inch masking tape. Tear off a piece the length of the stripe you want, then tear the tape down the middle the full length. Use the Jagged Edge for the stripe Edge. Continue this method on the rest of your project You should be satisfied when done. You will have some people asking you how you did it. I hope this helps you guys & gals. Thanks.

[@Commandodesigns]

That is a great idea. I've used that technique for urban camoflage before. I guess I should've realised it would make cool tiger stripes as well. Thanks for the tips.

[@ogenmatic]

These are some good tips! Thanks. I've been warming my paint & (small) projects for awhile. This allows me to 'dash' outdoors in cooler weather to apply a coat - then bring the project in to dry. Warming the paint also makes it mix better/easier. Also, those metallic paints work tons better with assorted brighter colors under them though I really like the realistic effect of flat red primer underneath the copper color. Flat black undercoat helps tone down camo or similar projects before putting on your base camo color.

[@peterchesko9537]

Thanks for more hints and tips. I do a lot of metal fab and paint most of my projects with spray paint. I've found that washing with hot soapy water and then wiping down with acetone will give me a finish that will almost never crack or flake. Thanks again!

Have a questions. I do kinetic wind sculptures with aluminum blades. I hammer the blades into the shape of a bicycle fender.mirror polish the inside of the blade and paint the outside. Should I be using adhesion promoter before I paint? Also I have been using dupli-color metalcast that gives an anodized look. Their colors are so limited and I was wondering if there is a way that I can get this candy colored look in using easy to get regular paint and clear coat? If not is there a good source for what I am looking for? I want to stay away from the $25.00 a can paint if possible. The dupli-color has clear coat mixed in the aerosol can. I am thinking that there is a way to do this with regular store bought paint and clear coat that I am not aware of. Very nice video. Thanks

[@Commandodesigns]

Aluminum doesn't rust so you don't really have to worry about primer. As far as adhesion, it wouldn't hurt but you don't need a lot. You could sand the surface with 600 grit to just dull the surface, then a light coat of adhesion promoter (primer for plastic) and paint. That should be very durable. Regular clear coat is important becasue without it I don't think the paint will last very long in the elements. Good luck. I hope this helps.

[@JohnDavis-yz9nq]

Commando Designs do you have any ideas about getting a candy colored look with just regular store bought paint? I bought some rust oleum glitter paint also. And I bought an automotive clear coat to go on top of that. I have painted a lot but you guys have experimented more than I have. You guys know a lot more than I do. Thanks so much for your help. Also no without the clear coat this Texas sun do a number on it.

[@rileycover1316]

alright I'm calling it as a person who loves rattle can and have done entire cars alot of what he said was wrong the point of primer is to bring everything to a single color and to be sanded to a flat smooth surface. you need to mist with rattle can to assist in etching. adhesion promoters were designed for painting over an unknown surface. it's good for doing blend jobs and the masking tape deal is complete bogus. don't press down so damn hard. If you're only using masking tape, it has a fuzzy edge. it comes up in the paint. so use a fine line or striping tape. some type of nylon tape to make your edge painted on. them gently press down your masking tape. I've used this on paint that's cured for 20 min.

[@Commandodesigns]

I with you man... I really am. I'm trying to translate this stuff down to the lay person. Professionals use an endless amount of tricks... especially in prep work.

[@thomas_Customz]

All those tips are fantastic and will be adding the ones I don't already use to my routine my only question is the last tip about waiting 7 days to clear coat. My experience and knowledge is very limited but I thought laying clear coat had to be done within 30min-1hr of your last base coat so the clear will have something to grab onto and if u wait a week that u should sand 800 grit, spray another base coat layer then wait 30 min to clear coat, to not wait for the paint to fully cure or u will have adhesion issues. Have I been wrong about this all a long?

[@Commandodesigns]

You're right... That would work. The point is clear before it de-gasses (cures) or wait till it does completely. What you said would definitely work because no gases are getting trapped.

Ok, so for plastic surface, after I spray adhesive promoter or plastic primer, should I wait the primer to cure, or just wait till dry (usually 10 minutes). Thanks.

I thought I was looking at Seth McFarlane. I kept expecting him to go into Peter Griffin voice. Anyway, really good tips. Made me a subscriber. Thanks.

Hi. After spraying with a can on canvas, can you overlay with acrylic paint? That is, can you spray a canvas with a spray can and then paint with acrylic on top of that spray can painting?

Hi. Thanks so much for this information. Wondering if you could answer a follow up question…I’ve already used paint with primer on a canvas thinking it would be ok as an under layer. Turned out amazing! It was my first large canvas that I’ve spray painted so I wasn’t expecting to be awed. Anyway, is there going to be a problem with the integrity of my painting & will it retain it’s current look? I have a friend who wants it. She wants to pay me but I’m nervous. Sorry for the long question(s)

I think you'll be fine. What you're worried about is cracking. The primer should help with this. In the future look for flexible primers they'll help even more. Acrylics are naturally pretty flexible so I think you'll be good. Another experimental solution would be to try flex seal. You could try it as a primer and or the clear top coat. A combo of one or 2 of these solutions should work in the long run. Good luck.
