how long did it take for the spray paint smell to go away? how is the condition of the paint now? also, does it gives out any spray paint smell when used? update video please

[@HandymanLand]

When I sprayed the radiator. I left came back the next day and no smell.
If I were to guess 10 or 12 hours. I no longer live there. But still own the property, still looks like the day I spray painted it. And it has never given out any smell. It's all about using the right product. Hope I've answered your question. The product I used is in the description. Thank you for watching...

@@HandymanLandThank you for replying back. By any chance do you remember how big was the radiator you painted? It turned out really nice. Did you only do one coat? Did you have a lot of paint left over? I have seven that I'm planning to paint and their about 3ft tall 4ft long. Just trying to get an rough estimate of how many cans I should order. One last question, mines are in the same condition your was in before you painted it. if you were to do it again would you sand it down first?

[@HandymanLand]

@simonsay9794 The one I painted was about 20x26 inches. I probably did about 2 to 3 coats. And
still had half a can left.

@@HandymanLand I just bought a 100 yr old house by Detroit River - with all horribly painted over radiators - not only that but probably had about 30 + years of dirt and debris stuck - to point it made allergy issues when turned on !! I tried so many hacks I came up to try to clean !! They are about 80 percent better - but no where near ready to paint because of crevices on bottom - so I’m going to get baby bottle brush and finish the dirt removal - then strip - paint is falling off any way ! Also thanks for spray paint hack!! Perfect - affordable - and I can do it myself - I’ll keep watching !

[@HandymanLand]

Awesome, just make sure you use a good paint respirator. Prices on the respirator have come back down to normal price. A good one will run you about $20 to $40 bucks. Thanks again🙂👍

[@cousinevey]

It doesn't look like you painted between the fins. Why not? Can't you see the old color, or rust, in there? I seems like I can

[@HandymanLand]

Yes, you can see just a little bit due to the fact that I did not remove it to get the backside. To remove it, I would have had to drain the entire house, and I was trying to avoid that. The video you just saw is actually a little over 5 years old. I found it and posted it up some time ago. I still own that property, and the radiator still looks great! But also, I did build a cover for this radiator. Thanks for your comment.

[@jlongrigg]

Aren't you supposed to sand the rust down first?

[@HandymanLand]

If it's really bad, I would sand it down as much as possible. But in my case I just cleaned it up the best I could. And spray the specialty high heat rust-oleum spray paint. This paint supposedly stops it from continuing to rust. And I believe it, this video was uploaded a year ago. But that job I did about three years ago. I still own that property and to this day the radiator looks great. Thank you for your comment.

[@antonioking1]

I was thinking about that because I have to sand mine. Thanks for the video! This was super helpful!
