That is one of the slickest paint jobs I've ever seen, well done brother..thanks for the vids..

[@srvrace5807]

Dude, more of this. Also, if you considered a tutorial type of painting channel you might just blow up like crazy. Good work man. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, my God!!! Someone that knows what he’s doing!!!! Great job on the paint work!!

Hi, I wanted to kindly remind you that I sent you a message regarding your video. Please see my previous message. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you! :)

Turntwig: "so which colour do you want?" Customer: "yes"

Or... Customer: ”I really like black and gray” Me: ”Ok, I might have some ideas”... 😂

I liked this painting so much that I tried to do it on my helmet and it was good. Congratulations beautiful work you did.

So this is the first time any of your videos have popped up on my feed and that is amazing I'm not a fan of peanut tanks or tear drop tanks but wow that is gorgeous haven't looked through your other videos or anything but I am really praying you do more tanks and fenders that is beautiful

[@GetSquarewTomJolley]

Nice work! Do you spray clear between your coats of candy? I have tried painting candy on top of previous layers and they seem to disappear. Never figured out what I did wrong. Even black (shadows)

[@Turntwig]

Thanks! Hmm... sounds weird, but are you spraying candys from light to dark? If you don’t, the light colors won’t show up on the darker tones. But no, there is no need to clear between candys.

[@BigPlaneFixer]

That's amazing!!! How do you figure out your patterns? Is it a free hand kind of process? I just can't believe there's people out there this talented. Blows my mind!!!

[@Turntwig]

Shaun Morin 🙏🙏 thank you! Yes, its a freehand kinda process.

[@judichristopher4604]

[@bryancoombesart]

really nice color combination, I bet a clear matt would look dope also

[@Turntwig]

Bryan Coombes ART it would ✌️

[@stukaman1162]

Someone with marginal experience in laying down masking tape could do what you did. The real artistry becomes evident if and when your patterns are absolutely symmetrical. God help you if and when you have to do a touch-up. That criticism aside, there is something to be said for this psychedelic scheme.

[@mikeymike3240]

Awwww maaaan, genius at work, genius at work. That was freaking amazing man, i was wondering how you would do it, but you make it look so easy. That was beautiful, a work of art. How did you know that was the custom paintwork i was looking for. It's like you're inside my head man. I'd love to buy that from you, but all i can afford is a rattle can paint job for my mustang fuel tank. Thanks for posting, you have given me food for thought. Awesome video man. I FREAKING LOVED IT. 😎👍👍👍

Do you pull the tape before or after it dries? Just curious

Vincent Vega I have to leave the tape all the way to the last color, so yes, after drying 👍

Nice! Excelent Work!!! You are a fine artist!

[@Darthbetel]

So when you’re “leveling off the flake coat” you’re adding more clear coat until smooth instead of sanding?

[@Turntwig]

It didn’t get filmed, but I actually do this: sand the first clear coat over the flskes smooth, add a couple of clear coats on top of that AND sand that down before graphics 👍

[@Darthbetel]

Thx much. I watched this video 40x I love the work. Gonna build off it. Appreciated

[@ALEXANDERCRETA1]

Nice job! What tip nozzle gun for flakes? What size is the flakes? What ratio fkakes clear?

[@منتظر-خ4م3ت]

جميل جدا ❤

[@Suedzville]

JUST AWESOME. With each layer, are you taping directly over the Candy 2.0 or are you using a mid clear over each color of candy?

[@Turntwig]

Suedzville Thanks! Yup, directly on top of Candy 2.0. There is 4030 added to the candys wich make them really tough, you can tape it as soon as it gets flat. I love it 👏

[@dkooj]

Holy cow! That may be one of the most beautiful things in the world!!

[@philipdethorey9314]

Is it candy concentrate? Do you mix the candy with something (if so, how do you mix it?) or do you spray straight from the bottle?

[@Turntwig]

This os straight from the bottle because it’s Createx paint. I could have used concentrates and then i would have mixed it 20% with a transparent base/binder 👍

[@philipdethorey9314]

@@Turntwig i have candy2o koncentrate and it says i have to mix it 3 to one. 3 parts Createx 4050 and 1 part candy concentrate

[@philipdethorey9314]

Or should i mix the candy concentrate different if im using a spot repair gun?

[@philipdethorey9314]

3 to 1 is airbrush mix but is it different for a bigger gun?

[@osmoncabinetry3534]

Not too shabby

[@jamesbrungardt7361]

How long do you let each layer dry before you put the next pinstripe tspe down. And how soon do you need to take the Pinstripe tspe off before you ruin the paint job

[@Turntwig]

james brungardt Here, I gave it a good 20 min before putting the tape on. These dry very very fast and are really tough, so as soon as they turn flat, you’re good to go. But 20 just to be sure! Actually the first set of tapes sits on for a couple of days so the only worry is that it doesn’t lift in the really tight turns. ✌️

[@mickm881]

how long does the paint need to dry before removing the tape?

[@dougg1075]

I’m hemp to that man!

[@philipholman1713]

Almost Paisley it's trippy. Would love to see a frame painted like this

[@dr.chopperstein3100]

waw.... absolutely stunning! I will try similar thing on my tank. how long do you let it dry between the taping? and what sandpaper you use after it's dried to ensure adhesion? Or you just let it dry and then stripe, spray another coat? It's so amazing. I want to get better at painting too, so I like experimenting with different techniques :)

I’ve done a few practice panels with candy, taping designs and masking paper over inner designs and I’ve had issues with candy pull-up when I take the masking paper off, what am I doing wrong.? . Thx

[@Turntwig]

paul1060 I donno..? Might have to do with drying time, or how thick a layer of candy you put on. With these candys (createx Candy 2.0)there no such issue because they dry hard really fast!

[@johnburch6927]

Beautiful work brother. Those are the hours of bench time that pay off in spades.
