Thank you for posting this. I've added a new storage compartment and rod box to my aluminum river fishing boat. I'll use the self etching primer prior to painting.
@anariaq Actually having it open the other direction would be much nicer, but this is an ambient submarine so it's sort of backwards to a normal 1ATM submarine. Consider the force on the top hatch when a bottom hatch is open while underwater. It's a 25 cubic foot air bubble that want to go up, and that top hatch has to take the force of about 650 pounds.
So, let me get this straight, you are building a steel junk rigged boat and a submarine at the same time. Can you do a video on the vitamins you take? am enjoying your videos, thanks for sharing.
You dont have to put 3 coats 1 is good it can be see through you are just etching the metal and you dont have to sand the etch paint rite over it unless you let it sit more than 24 hours then hit it with a scotch brite i do this everyday for a liveing
painting an aluminum boat there.... I used self etching primer on BARE ALUMINUM and then automobile primer on top of the self etching..... both are Rustoleum products.... Can I just add paint over that or did I just screw it up with the automobile primer?
A) We've living in Bogota, Colombia. It's in the mountains a very long way from the coast. Cartagena would be better situated. B) Drugs need a dry cargo hold. :)
i have a general question, is it possible to re-paint an aluminium window by myself without taking out and give a specialized people to do it? because i ask others ppl and they said no!
@mrhulot101 -- It's actually not a bad deal. I get to make all the mistakes on the boat we plan to sink and do a better job on the one we plan to live on. :) And the answer is not vitamins, it's no TV.
I just have to paint aluminium can tabs black. Can I do that with just carnival black hair spray? Need it for cosplay and I want to do it as cheap as possible (need to make an aluminium chain). Those spray cans are 2,5 euros
I am restoring an aluminium bicycle frame, after its polished should it be finished with a coat of Laquer to protect it, or could it be left just as it is. thanks
Sorry, but I've never tried polishing or keeping a polish on aluminum, but I'd think maintaining an airtight clean coat would be necessary to prevent gray aluminum oxide from forming on the surface.
Very nice I hope it sticks long term I found a dark green etching primer when I was back in Canada for some aluminum windows and worked very well. Sorry can’t remember the brand.
My guess is that your aluminum window is power coated. And if you want that same paint treatment, then the window must be removed. But at that point, I think I'd install a new window.
I'm really not trying to be harsh but you're Indirectly saying 1:43 this is your first time using this type of primer? It doesn't give me and perhaps other people lots of confidence. How are the results one or two years from now? That's the problem, you simply don't know. The majority of your videos are helpful, focus more on your experience.
SV Seeker Wow! Well done. To what depth are you able to go? I should have read a few other posts prior to posting myself, but time being the enemy and all....I would have thought however, that welding for that purpose would need to be of a specific requirement - and carried out by a coded welder.
WACCOJJ I abandoned this project in favor of others, but this was an ambient design. There are more details of the design on our web site: svseeker.com/submarines.htm
yep me too. learn to weld "BEFORE" you start on the "any" project . .as most projects start with a back bone,. by not knowing how to do it properly you are setting yourself up for failure especially financially and public ambarrasment . cause its on youtube!!!
The test you were trying wasn't a real test and would have been more like abrasion resistance not bond strength. If one wanted to know the adhesion bond strength you would test per ASTM-D 3359 Method A. The manufacture will have the target performance numbers for the test above. Regards.

Hi is 2x Rust-Oleum® Professional Aluminum Primer Spray strong hold and good for aluminium
The hell with the paint. I want to see the submarine!
I came here looking to prime a diving board cast aluminum base....but gotta see that sub.

Michael Harden do you have to use the primer if you had it sand blasted?
@@lowboytrucker depends. If its aluminum you should always use etch primer. 1 coat is enough. Not 3 coats like in the video.

It has been two years since you posted this comment, so how is the paint holding up on the aluminum boat?
did they outlaw Zinc Chromate or is it still available?
Good video! Very informative! Thank you for sharing.

always use roller and brush to apply paint for better adheasion

My landlord put sheets of aluminum up as backsplash around stove , how can I paint over this ?
You say your building a sub, but not such a good welder?.......I'll stay on the dock thank you!...lol

YOU'RE building a sub

@@brucemartin8435 hi, did you applied 3 coats of etch primer? Thank you
@@luismaryland2305 only 2 coats and wet sand where I could
@@brucemartin8435 thank you very much!
did he say submarine?
I want to paint my coffee maker..it's alluminum..is it possible
Parabéns pela aula
So how is the self-etching primer doing at the moment, SV Seeker?
nhanlm0601 Great question, but I sold that boat years ago and do not know it's whereabouts.
SV Seeker
Can laquer work?
Can you use this is there is already paint on the aluminum?
No. Only over bare metal
Walmart has self eching primer
Always, use a face mask when spraying anything. Unless you like getting those chemicals in you lungs.
Yes Mother

I don't think know what an "Ambient Submarine" is.
what are u making??

Vladimil Santana did u laugh at my comment
How about you wear a mask when spraying paint especially an etcher full of funky chemicals.

I'm not trying to give you confidence. You have to do that for yourself.

When you say submarine, I take it you meant glass bottom boat.
no

Sorry to disappoint you. Thanks for watching.
No worries. Next time you'll know how to do a bond strength test properly. Thanks for the video.
