The moment I saw this video topic I couldn’t wait to watch. The amount of planing you have to do in order to test products for a full year and get out videos out ever week is not unnoticed. Great video and thanks as always.
He's really work hard on the channel .. We are appreciated you, Thank you very much
I agree... great video with a lot of prep. I appreciate this a lot.
The dude is a goat 🐐 master at his craft ✊🏽
Loop
Planing?
Ever week?
I spend a fortune on paints every year for my business and have tried everything on the market. In my experience, Rustolium has always given me the best results because it covers so evenly and predictably. Valspar has given me nothing but headaches and often take twice as much paint to achieve the same smooth coverage that Rustolium gives. Great video as always, Todd.
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
Valspar is sherwin williams usually sherwin williams is over priced.
I've always had way better experience with Duplicolor the Rustolium.
@@mariovillegas90 Martin Senior is who makes Sherwin Williams coatings and yes valspar is one of their many different lines of coatings and paint products.
You need to try spray paint that’s made for graffiti , made to dry fast and cover a lot of area and extremely opaque , also last great in high UV exposure . Companies like German Montana , Spanish Montana , ironlak and German molotow, my opinion the best . Also comes in tons of colors and can change the tips for different sizes !
The fact that this video was at least a year in the making is amazing to me. Thank you Todd for putting so much effort into these videos! Every Sunday I look forward to seeing what new video you are putting out!
Thank you very much!! I wish I could put together more long-term product reviews.
@@ProjectFarm that would be wonderful ❤
Yep, it's amazing the work Todd put in every project. But it's an standard test in paints and coats. One of the roughest test is made at Beach, lots of sun, lots of salt, lots of moisture, lots of corrosion.
This guy is awesome! Next level
@@BiggMo yes
Top notch testing as ALWAYS! You even waited 1 year for results. A++ Thanks for all the time you put into making these fantastic videos to help people make the right buying decisions!
You are welcome!
For real!! And also enjoyable informative no bs video!! 💯
@@ProjectFarm do you have a video on the best non stick cookware?

I don't usually plan my projects according to PF video output but I do always reference his video library when making decisions on products.
What an amazing job.
i have watched most of your videos and you are hands down the best reviewer of any product, from your comprehensive and thorough testing methods, clear and concise delivery of results, all the way to how fast you talk, you provide a sorely needed service in this time of false advertising and sponsored content.
You sir, have my utmost respect and gratitude.
When it comes to absolute commitment to their content, I don't think any other youtubers comes close to project farm! My respect for him only goes up with every video
Thanks so much!
I'd love to see high heat aerosol coating test. (Engine enamel, cereakote, duracoat, guncoat, alumahide, ) tested on steel and aluminum then have the winner go against powder coating
I've been wondering that too
VHT paints..
Yeah this would be great

Ha, did have a two 4 and 5 digit ICQ account numbers.
Oh just looked it up YT is 16yo, so that means my first YT comment is that old.
I think you need to repaint the hood of the ranger, with “Dupli color” and a ew other “automotive grade” spray paints. Then see how they hold up after 1year
Their Hi Heat engine enamel is my go to .
Thanks for the suggestion.
Most Duplicolor is lacquer, and I believe all paints here were enamels. A better project would be to compare lacquer brands, then maybe the best lacquer against the best enamel (and/or epoxies)
Both Dupli-color and VHT are divisions of Sherwin-Williams, for whatever, that's worth.
Paint with freebie. Buck a gallon interior gloss. With a roller.
The reason I love these videos so much is the complete and utter lack of bullshit. It’s super refreshing and these videos are quick and extremely informative. I applaud you sir.
Thanks!
I love him for what he does and the fact that he does it with shit we all know and use cuz let's face it harbor freight is a big kid toy store. Sure we know alot of it is crap made in China that will fall apart in 3 months but its so damn cheap and there when we need it. Love the fact that he compares the cheap vs midle vs high cost stuff too
This makes me tingle with joy inside as a consumer who has tried many different spray paints, I have found the rustoleum high performance enamel was my go to! Glad to see it actually performed really well under your tests!
Yeah, the rustoleum is what I use on my job site at least once a month. Have used for anything from parking lot lines to pipes
Mine too!
You are amazing. This is one of the best and most comprehensive comparison videos I have ever seen. Can't thank you enough for the work you put into this.
Thanks!
I would like to see a paint test for farm/commercial equipment such as John Deere or Cat that is big bucks at a dealer vs the regular store bought stuff. Painting with a brush could show aspects of quality like how well it brushes out and smoothness etc.
Rustoleum has a specific spray paint for farm equipment with supposedly better rust protection.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Awesome video with great insight! Considering many people apply a clear coat overtop of paint in automotive and other applications, I feel it would be an awesome video to test various clear coats including the half and half hardening cans and then test their resistance when cut and polished, as well as many of the same tests here. It would definitely help many people looking to correct a clear coat or just apply one as I've messed up painting with some clear coats and have just resorted to get it professionally done spending a bunch of money. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks, will do! Thanks for the suggestion.
@@ProjectFarm i wonder how well that colorplace paint would perform with a quality clearcoat.
Excellent suggestion! I was thinking the same. Also the brands that tend to discolor over time.
Great test!
2K paint would be an interesting addition. It is made for automotive and is actually 2 part paint like professional quality paints are. The hardener is inside the can and you have a limited working time once you activate it before it chemically cures inside the can.
Testing different high temp paints for grills or exhaust components would be a cool test too. Also different wood finishes.
I can never find 2k paint ANYWHERE though! This may be more of a "me" problem though. But my guess would be he just did paints that were easily found any ole place. Could be interesting to see... I'd definitely watch a part 2, but I'm not complaining because this man prepared this for us a YEAR in advance... Like he tends to do. He's an absolute treasure and can do no wrong in my eyes hahaha.
I like your idea for testing high temperature paint.
2k paint is No comparison, and not generally available to the public.
@@MAsWorld1 anyone can buy 2k paint its just expensive.
@@danielnelson4881 you can get 2K on Amazon, it's just like $25 per can.
Might be hard to find various colors, but you can get clear coat easily. That would help protect any other rattle can colored base coat you put down from oxidizing.
Well, I'm pleasantly surprised to see that RustOleum Pro did so well. I've been using it since this spring to refinish lawn equipment and really like it. It covers well and I've had no problems with runs and drips like I have with other spray paints, even other RustOleum paints.
Thanks for sharing!
Literally the best channel in existence anywhere
Thanks so much!
Would've liked to see the Duplicolor brand (available at just about every
auto parts store in existence) included. In the past I've found myself thinking that regular spray paint would probably work better for automotive applications than the DupliColor. I've used it quite often and I always seem to be a little bit let down by it.
They used to sell it at walmart like 15 years ago. The sprays were terrible, but the little bottles of touch up with the little brush attached to the cap? Those were amazingly good for what they were.
I've professionally painted items and Duplicolor/Duplicolor high temp were the best paints. They always went down really smooth and were more durable. You really have to apply the paint properly though with the right prep, 2 light coats, and 1 medium coat. In the video he puts the paint down incorrectly.
Here in Canada, a can of Dupli-Color (227 grams or 8 ounces) is $18.99 a can😲😲. Really expensive paint which doesn't go very far in terms of coverage.
ive always used inside/outside paints for cars if I didnt need to color match. like whites blacks. im saying inside/outside because that is what the paints say they are used for. its silly to think a paint that can protect a metal railing cant also be used on a car. the only different between duplicolor and the others is duplicolor per its fancy name, color matches you cars paint. dont use a duplicolor clear coat when other inside/outside clear coats are much cheap like 2x rustoleum etc etc
@@bobspurloc As a matter of fact it's the clear coat that I always had the most problems with. I could never seem to lay down a heavy enough coat without using dozens and dozens of cans. The nozzles they use though, the adjustable horizontal/vertical fantail (I don't know what else to call it) nozzle is freaking awesome.
Man I love your no bullshit, Unbiased, not paid for reviews. everything from rechargeable batteries, oil, generators, 2 and 4 stroke bicycle motors, to a year long review of spray paint.
Congrats! You've changed my opinion om so many products I've stuck with just by the brand name alone. Now I use items that work by proven scientific theory and testing.
Please don't stop!
Thanks!
This is why I recommend this channel to everyone. A whole year of dedication. Great video!
Thanks!
a showdown between spray paint clear coat/clear finishes would neat - even comparing with something like polycrylic or an oil based sealer. it would be cool to see how they hold up against stains, scratches, and what they're like after UV exposure!
You should test vise's or maybe chisels ? See how hard some of the cheap blades are
Thank you for the video idea!
Definitely would be interested in seeing chisel brands and which ones are better than others.
Enderes is a small chisel and punch company. Include them in such a test. Great punches and chisels!
@@ProjectFarm I'd be curious about replacement blades for utility knives, though I suppose it would make more sense to do the new utility knives before replacing the blades.
I have an old set of Marples regular chisels and wood turning chisels. Good chisels👍
Your devotion and professionalism to providing top quality content is second to none. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
I would be very interested in what someone on the manufacturing end of these paints has to say about it. About the toss up between different aspects of a paint and the choices made. That goes for most of the products categories in your videos, actually. Another great test, thanks PF!
You are welcome! Thanks the suggestion.
I always assumed Rustoleum Pro was just the "amateur" grade paint in a larger can. But based on the results maybe it is actually a different product.
This is without a doubt the best product review channel I have ever seen... Amazing attention to detail...
Thanks so much!
Let me first say that I have a lot of respect for your work and even more for what you do for folks out here.
Having said that I believe your impact tests were actually affected more by the fact that the primer beneath each paint gave up. The primer was common to all panels if I remember right so that sort of throws the proverbial "wrench in the works" Thanks again !
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
Suddenly Seymour! Thank you for the immense effort you put into these videos. Younare VERY appreciated!
Thanks!
I used Color Place to paint to 2 steel columns holding up my porch, 2 years later it still looks great.
Thanks for sharing.!
I’ve been using exclusively spray paint by mtn colors ever since my local hardware store started carrying them. Specifically their “hardcore” line of paints. It’s marketed as graffiti paint but it goes on so smooth it’s a little mind blowing, virtually impossible to make it run. I can usually put on 3 coats in under a minute and it comes out flawless at any angle. Would love to see how it stacks up.
Thanks for the feedback.
I've seen this brand at my local hardware store and wondered, good to know it's good stuff.
mtn, loop, dang, molotow, ironlak, all great brands.
Is that the same as Montana spray paint?
@@Productsthathateyou. yes same
That definitely matches up with my highly un-scientific experience, the Rust-O Pro is just really darn good paint!
Thanks for the feedback.
Funny, I was about to leave the same comment. I have been using the Rust-O Pro for years. I always thought it was good paint, now I know it’s good.
@@billybadass411thefirst9 same. I already have like 4 cans on hand, always seemed to apply the best and lasts

I'd be interested to see a comparison of spray paints where you rank them on how well the sprayer nozzles work and (hopefully) continue to work. I mean which ones seem to clog up the most/least and which ones give the best/worst spray patterns.
Thank you! I almost wasted an enormous amount of money on that Sherwin Williams. I’m relieved I found your video. Rustoleum pro will save me so much money and it’ll work better. I love your channel. You are doing the world a great service.
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I've had nothing but problems with Krylon brand spray cans, especially with their clear coat. The Krylon clear coat actually ruined one of my projects. Gave the paint a crackle effect. I even googled it and it seemed to be a pretty big issue with Krylon clear . But I personally think the best is the Rust-Oleum 2X cans. Every project I've done with 2x cans have all came out awesome and are still holding up and their colors seem to be right on.
I had the crackle problem spots on some dumpsters I was painting I was using rustoleum oil base and rustoleum clear coat had to go back to primer and respray. I switched to majic oil based clear coat from tractor supply no kracking. It has been 3 months now still looks good. I am curious how it will take the winter.
I painted my daughters 1978 Ford F-150 rims with Rustoleum 2X. However, I’m going to return the 2X clear and buy Rustoleum Professional clear instead. Your video saved me just in time! Thank you for a years worth of work!!

I’ve found Krylon very good but the one I use specifically says “Krylon Rust Paint”on it, it is different than the one you used.
Thanks for the feedback.
You Sir, deserve some kind of humanitarian award for your service.
Thanks for the nice comment!
Great video! I'd be curious to see how the paints marketed towards artists (Montana, Ironlak, etc) hold up. I'm also curious how specialized paints from Rustoleum (Wheel paint, engine enamel, etc) hold up. Finally, I wonder how these products stand up with their own brand of clear coat (if they have it) increases the longevity of the paint.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
I searched the term, "best spray paint" I was hoping you made a video like this and you did!!! Thank you!!!

Thanks!
@2:02... the way you say "we're gonna test that", love it!
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
I use spray paint for many projects. For cheap paint, my go to is the Home Depot $1/can spray paint. If I need better protection, it's Rustoleum (regular), but I feel it dries a lot slower and it's definitely messier to use. I also use Krylon - I like the fast drying and the finish. This video sure was eye opening. I've never used the Rustoleum Pro, but it looks like it's worth the extra money if I'm going to need better/longer protection. And the Seymour is impressive, but I've never heard of it.
Here are a few others I recommend in a show down of spray paints!
1. POR15 spray paint - Should beat all competitors for rust protection
2. Duplicolor - I use this as my go to for auto exterior paint. I'd like to see how it does against the other brands.
3. Eastwood 2K - I've never used it, but I've heard it's really good.
Thanks again for an excellent video!
Great feedback! Thank you
Imagine Project Farm's back yard is like one of those cadaver farms they use for researching autopsy forensics of bodies exposed to the elements, but with consumer products instead. :) I wonder if we could get a tour of all the projects currently undergoing time-testing.
THANKS- My wife will especially appreciate it as she is the one getting burned most often. Love the videos.. Big help

For those looking for an excellent quality spray paint at a reasonable price you should check out Seymour MRO High Solids. It's not only a good quality paint but unlike many of the cheaper options this stuff is extremely forgiving in terms of application. I've never seen it produce anything other than beautiful results.
This is probably my favorite video on the channel. If you ever want to do another spray paint video, Krylon fusion claims 5x stronger adhesion and I've always been curious what that means
Thanks!

Todd, when you showed preparation of the pickup's hood, it reminded many of those who want to protect their vehicles from further rust, but haven't the expertise (or budget) for more than a rattlecan paint job.
Product comparison is your specialty, so can you find comparable paintcan-based restoration kits on the aftermarket?
The typical kit would include basic preparation materials, from sandpaper to body filler, with a supply of primer, base and topcoat paints.
You would be surprised how many of us lack even an enclosed garage for car maintenance. Yes, the inflatable car painting enclosures seem a solution-- until we glance at the pricetag.
Thanks for the feedback.
The main difference between modern automobile paint and paint of the past (approx. before 1995), is that the modern paint has flex additives due to the common usage of plastic body panels and trim. This makes the paint more pliable and harder to chip.
I know you're not testing specifically auto paint but there are aftermarket rattle cans that have this type of paint in them.
I hope you'll do a video on the paints that are supposed to dry to a true mirror finish.
Thanks for the awesome video. Great job as usual Todd.
You are welcome! Thanks for the video idea.

I just used a can of Montana brand spray paint. Got it from Ace Hardware. The guy at the store recommended it. It was lower cost than Krylon. Made in Spain. Wonder how it will hold up. I used it on some red plastic fuel cans and one red painted fuel can. I just wiped them down with a rag, taped off what I didn't want paint on, and sprayed. I was using electric blue to identify the cans for kerosene. I had an even spray pattern, no trouble at all with runs. The temp barely above 50F where I sprayed, though the paint itself was about 60F. It covered well and dried to the touch quickly. The salesman said an artist used that brand on some murals in the downtown area. I would like to see how it compares with the brands tested. I will have to wait to see if drips of kerosene dissolve it or not. The can I used was a flat paint, which typically is not as tough as gloss.
Thanks for the suggestion.
I agree with the Rustoleum Pro. It's a really good spray paint. Just wish they had a longer variety of colors for that brand.
Thanks for the feedback.
I use rustolium 2X to coat my shooting steels with great results. The paint obviously chips away every shot, but the chipping is minimal. Would definitely recommend for any task you can have, it can handle it
Thanks for sharing.
I like to use Dupli-Color on my motorcycle projects. The gloss black I used on my '74 CL450 has held up very well for the last several years.
Thanks for sharing.
I cannot stop binging your videos, and they are extremely well thought out, produced and highly informative, without exceptions!
I understand that I am late to the party, so whatever i am suggesting or saying will likely be buried by that....however.
When you need to test something like glossiness, like for the paints, I think having a laminated card with printed letters or different sizes, colors may help.
What I mean is having like a "The quick brown fox..." text written in different font sizes and even different background/foreground colors, then you can take the reflection for comparison and would provide a consistent and equal test for all the paint/materials that you need to test the glossiness (or matte) for.
Once again, i could write praises for all of your videos as they genuinely helped me with a lot of decisions!
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
I feel like getting some 2k paint with hardener is always gonna be the best option
Thanks for the feedback.
btw, The industry standard test for paint adhesion is the “cross hatch tape test”. ASTM 3359. All that is needed is a razor blade and a roll of good quality clear packing tape, such as 3m.
Thanks for the feedback.
I think the Montana Black and ironlak are the biggest names in spray paint that artists use for quality paint. would have been curious to see those stack up, they are what outdoor artists use, both contracted and illicit artists.
Thanks for the feedback.
It be great to see comparisons of different Clear coats. It also would be nice to see paint and clear coats across various materials.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Impressive effort with fantastic results. Thanks Project Farm!

When i bought my little flux core welder, i bought a giant can of gloss rustoleom to hide my crowturd welds. Chip and wirebrush the welds and spray it on with the metal still hot. The stuff bakes on and stays very well. Flat or sating finish krylon is a dream for small parts. Make the part, wash it good with soap and water, dry it with a blowdrier, not a heat gun, spray the partlet it stand a little and bake it dry with the blow drier. Again, an excellent durable finish!!! We already know how good rustoleum is farmguy, people are buying it in gallon cans in canada and roller painting cars and they cure out beautiful. And all of this small part and welded joint painting i did was without primer.
Thanks for sharing.
Surface shield vs POR15 would be a great match up. That you for all your videos they help me make tough decisions on my projects.

I love the video, very informative. The only thing I wish we would have had was a before and after buffing of the hood to see how they buffed out, at one year of exposure and when you're after being buffed. Can't wait for the next vid
Thanks! Thanks for the constructive feedback.
Great test. Just a suggestion for the future: I find that many times the quality of the spray nozzle makes all the difference. What good is a quality paint if you can’t apply it cleanly. Not exactly sure how you would test for that, but if someone can figure it out, it’s you. I used rustoleum Pro to paint an entire pickup truck and the paint preformed great. The nozzle did allow some drips to fall on the paint which sucked, but a great paint.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
Best channel on UA-cam! My hat is off to you @ProjectFarm
Thanks!
I use Rust Oleum pro for most colors but when I am restoring tractors I often use Caterpillar primer and gloss. It covers good and seems to hold up as good as the gallons. Perfect match also. I also use Total Source High performance.
