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 .
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!
I don't get why people who know (or think they know) this info already have to say something negative. If you know so damn much why are you watching this anyway? I am just beginning and really appreciated the info shared here in a clear concise manner! Gita have thick skin to be on You Tube these days. .......some people's children, lol
And there are way to many no life people that have nothing better in life to do other than criticize other people for actually having ambition and getting off there lazy cheeto chomping welfare asses. But I digress
@@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.
because people "in the industry" don't want to loose business and have their trade and trade secrets let out... Its their livelihood sometimes so its probably going to irk people.
Very cool! I'm getting ready to spray paint all new logos on my 36ft Motorhome. I'm going to to use several of the tips you just taught me for the process. Starting with not using primer, and starting out on a white background. Also going to allow for the cure time before applying the clear coat. Thanks for the free class and education!
I totally agree with the first. I learned it a few years ago and it WORKS, I heat my paint with hot water in the sink, 5 min shake 5 min shake 5 min...make all the difference! great job!
Dude- thank you SO much for this! Especially clearcoat tip. I'm new to car model building and very afraid about screwing up the paint so this will help so much to give me the confidence to try. Many thanks from Australia!
Why are some people hating on this video? I actually learned something and it"s 2017!? Who cares what kind of camera or music he is using, You WATCHED it! Thank You UA-cam! :)
@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 :)
Spray from the back side of a fan. Stops the running and dripping, lays the paint down better. Apply top coat and powder while still tacky. Lipstick is last.
I am also very grateful for watching this, I've ruined so many projects by clear coating too early, I thought there was just something wrong with me. Thank you
What a great tutorial! Thank you. Definitely worth watching, you taught me some new stuff and confirmed others I'd learned over the years through trial and error.
That is very interesting about the cracking when adding a clear coat. Thanks , really useful.we want to paint a name on a boat and were thinking of clear coating over it , so that tip will have saved us a lot of work putting it right.
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.
This was excellently helpful! His presentation style is top notch. Made his points clear and explained the ~why~ behind each without branching into irrelevant information. A+ sir. Such videos are a rare and delightful treat.
Bose de-Nage Usually, there are instructions on the can to the effect of something "drys to touch in 4-6 hours, cures in 48 to 72 hours." Additionally, most paint producers have detailed instructions for their products online.
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.
great video man. wonderful wonderful tips and knowledge. I greatly appreciate the time that went into the creation of this incredible content here. thank you kindly.
wow! I just sat down to have a look at some spray painting tricks before I start experimenting and this video of yours is the first I watched and I'm so thankful! These seem really cool tips thank you! Now it's time to check more of your videos! smiles from Hungary :)
Thank you!!! I'm so glad I came across your video! I have had many, many cans of spray paint, and still do! and I am always looking for things to paint. I have used clear coat and it did result in wrinkles. And I have had damn near full cans of paint get clogged. ...again, thank you.
This the type of dude that just makes the world a little bit better place, and that positivity can have a ripple effect that can reach places you'd never imagined. Thanks for the inspiration brudda
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.
Thank you for this honest and concise information. There are so many videos on this topic, this has bee the most useful one I've found for great results. Thank you.👍😊
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!
Hey bro, thanks for these tips. I actually learned more usable information from a couple of your videos than I have from maybe 50 other videos on youtube and hours of forum reading. Keep it up!
good stuff buddy, i use 8 of them, tape on shirt first and clear coat was new on me tho. i used to dry with a heat gun and only give it 1coat of clear and that worked for me. il let it cure next time and see how much better it is. 👊😀
Thank you so much for that information, I thought I could paint, after listening to you I was wrong, and I just wanted to say that your the Best and if anyone else out there that is watching this also Thinks that he is the Best please give him a thumbs up too, from Joey in Honolulu , Hawaii , Aloha 😎
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.
THANK U, THANK U, THANK U!!! I have been asking Everyone why ALL of my projects I paint wrinkle. Its bc I put the clear coat on right after it. Thank u so much for clearing that up for me.
I myself have not used spray paints YET ! So i sure am glad I came across this. I thank you for taking the time and being very clear speaking. No BS talking like some people. Just want to hear themselves lol. Thanks
Thanks man!! I just skrewed up a project by not waiting long enough for the paint to dry. This time, I'll give it a week before I add the clear coat. You just solved my problem. thanks again.
Thank you so much man.. this will be a great help for me.. cause i’ve done using clear coats on my paint jobs and it gives me cracks and wrinkles.. now i know.. really thank you so much and god bless you..
So glad I found this 7 year old video. I'm painting 3ad printed PLA. I have to use wood filler and primer to get the surface smooth but the spray tack and clear coat is valuable knowledge. Thank you. Hope you're well.
Thanks for great useful video. Especially reading the can on the clear coat application. All tips will come in handy as I am about to spray my bike parts :)
Thank you so much! I needed this video! I’m gonna tackle painting my lawn furniture so this helped a lot.. also, now I know why my paint always dripped when others would look so nice!
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.
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.
Great video and great tips. This young man has provided more tips in a few minutes than the manufacturers do on their spray can directions which are lousy and confusing. I too have scraped project or redid them because of the Clear confusion. I complained to Rustoleum that they should be more precise in their direction on spray cans. But that ain’t gonna happen anytime soon. Great job.
rustoleum doesn't care about the customers.. just about what sells.. I called them at 'headquarters' about "why are they pulling some of their best colors in their metallics line?" Corporate decisions based on #'s.. "Why not supply us with red blue green yellow orange so that we can blend our own colors?" all i got was a... "huh?"
great tips, thank you, I want to do a make over to my dining table and chairs, actual color of it is light brown and I'm going with dark grey or black, should I paint it white first or go with black as a first coat? and which is better acrylic or what, i appreciate any further information tips :)
I loved this video an I'd definitely prefer to learn from someone elses mistakes. Is there a way to get a wood bark or crackle effect by using spray paint?
Thank you so much for this video because now I know why my paint jobs came out wrong some of them. Keep doing more videos they help a lot, now following.
spawk graffaholek DUDE... That's awesome. I didn't think about that. That is gonna be a huge help on an upcoming project. I've been trying to figure out how to lower the pressure. Thanks man...
+Commando Designs The best spray painting tutorial I have seen so far. Thanks for the helpful tips. Normally I don't comment. But I just had to. Keep up the good work!!!
How would you recommending painting fabrics, like canvas? I'm making my own tent, and decided to use plastic backed canvas drop sheets as the material... do I need a primer or just an adhesive undercoat? And is there a specific type of top coat I should use to protect the colours?
Wow really? Only a real idiot would primer when they are out bombing. Thats the stupidest thing I ever read. I really hope you don't do that. Use adhesion promoter instead. Edit: what's even stupider is that I misread your comment. Geez! What the fuck is wrong with people these days!
Wow bro thanks for them tips. Specially the one for clear coat, everything you said had happened to me and didn't know why, i will wait a week from now on b4 using clear coat.
Good informative video. BTW, that wasn't masking tape, it's painting tape which is the correct tape. Would have liked to see one of your completed projects!
Dude I hated to try and use the clear coat for that exact reason! Did it to me everytime! Thanks for the tip, will definitely be doing this from now on! Thanks
Ive used the fire trick alot. Seems to be one of the only ways to get the paint to crack desirably and if you apply the clear coat while its wet and your doing artwork. It helps blend all the colors. Never had any problem. Should have touched on satin and gloss mixing some
Wow and to think I was going to skip this video. I'm super glad i didn't. I can honestly say this video was 100% useful information and 0% bs. Thank you for sharing all this knowledge and making a straight to the point video.
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.

You can literally get spray on foundation so tru
LmAo

Very good tips/tricks! Doing my first ever project later, and I'm glad I've watched this first.
I love these tips. Thank you they are really gonna help with my artwork!
After watching dozens of videos, you have finally answered my question regarding clear coat! Your presentation was excellent. Thank you!
That is very interesting about the cracking when adding a clear coat. Thanks , really useful.we want to paint a name on a boat and were thinking of clear coating over it , so that tip will have saved us a lot of work putting it right.
From a spray paint-loving art teacher-thank you! This is great.
Your little photo over there .I thought you had

Bravo! Clear, precise & to the point just how I like it. Thanks 👍🏻
good stuff buddy, i use 8 of them, tape on shirt first and clear coat was new on me tho. i used to dry with a heat gun and only give it 1coat of clear and that worked for me. il let it cure next time and see how much better it is. 👊😀
Everything you said is correct and I’ve been a professional painter for forty years good job
How long do I have to wait in between primer and spray paint coats? Question not answered and yes I'm working with metal not plastic.
And do I have to lightly sand in between first second and third coats? If so do I have to wait for the paint to dry, 7 days per coat for sanding?

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.
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.
Now I know what happened to a project I tried to do last year. Wish I had seen this sooner, lol. Thank you for sharing!! Great tips!
Great video and great tips. This young man has provided more tips in a few minutes than the manufacturers do on their spray can directions which are lousy and confusing. I too have scraped project or redid them because of the Clear confusion. I complained to Rustoleum that they should be more precise in their direction on spray cans. But that ain’t gonna happen anytime soon. Great job.
rustoleum doesn't care about the customers.. just about what sells.. I called them at 'headquarters' about "why are they pulling some of their best colors in their metallics line?" Corporate decisions based on #'s.. "Why not supply us with red blue green yellow orange so that we can blend our own colors?" all i got was a... "huh?"
I legit thought my headphones broke at 6:15 turns out they didn’t lol. Sweet vid love your tricks.
great tips, thank you, I want to do a make over to my dining table and chairs, actual color of it is light brown and I'm going with dark grey or black, should I paint it white first or go with black as a first coat? and which is better acrylic or what, i appreciate any further information tips :)
anything light go with a light base coat. Anything dark the opposite.
I loved this video an I'd definitely prefer to learn from someone elses mistakes. Is there a way to get a wood bark or crackle effect by using spray paint?
Awesome, informative video this one! Thank you so much for the tips, these would guide me in DIY my metal gate!🥰🥰🥰
AWESOME, all of these tips were SUPER helpful!
Thank you so much for this video because now I know why my paint jobs came out wrong some of them. Keep doing more videos they help a lot, now following.
Duuuuuude! THANK YOU! You have parted the clouds for several problems I was having, and set me up to knock the upcoming proj out of the park! 🤘
GREAT tips, man! I learned a lot in the past few minutes.
Will a hair dryer help with faster curing too?
Put it in ice for lower pressure. Heat will make it shoot out of the can way too fast for small details.
spawk graffaholek DUDE... That's awesome. I didn't think about that. That is gonna be a huge help on an upcoming project. I've been trying to figure out how to lower the pressure. Thanks man...
No problem brotha keep up the good work.

Great, now I have to find something to paint.
what is the 3D printer making?

Great useful, easy and cool ideas. THANKS
How would you recommending painting fabrics, like canvas? I'm making my own tent, and decided to use plastic backed canvas drop sheets as the material... do I need a primer or just an adhesive undercoat? And is there a specific type of top coat I should use to protect the colours?
I'll make sure not to use primer next time I go out bombing.
hahaha
lol you dont have time for the primer when u r bombing
I know, it was a joke XD I used to use primer on stickers back in the day though.
Wow really? Only a real idiot would primer when they are out bombing. Thats the stupidest thing I ever read. I really hope you don't do that.
Use adhesion promoter instead.
Edit: what's even stupider is that I misread your comment. Geez! What the fuck is wrong with people these days!
lmaooooo!
thanks for the info

Wow bro thanks for them tips. Specially the one for clear coat, everything you said had happened to me and didn't know why, i will wait a week from now on b4 using clear coat.
Thank you for the video. I appreciate the tips. They are very helpful.
Good informative video. BTW, that wasn't masking tape, it's painting tape which is the correct tape. Would have liked to see one of your completed projects!
audio went to left side during the clear talk
Dude I hated to try and use the clear coat for that exact reason! Did it to me everytime! Thanks for the tip, will definitely be doing this from now on! Thanks
Wish all tutorials were quick to the point like this, thanks for all your great info,
I dont understand how this was uploaded in 2015 but it still looks like they used to camera from like 1980
+DaffiestHail54 OMG IKR!

+Arkel Snarkewwl Wait 10 or 20 years and it'll look GREAT! BTW, you'll also be needing reading glasses!

Technology hasn't evolved that much in 35 years ;(
its the hard front light. the light is probably right above the camera which is how news / live event stuff is often shot
A link to this video should be printed on the side of every can of spray paint sold...
Ive used the fire trick alot. Seems to be one of the only ways to get the paint to crack desirably and if you apply the clear coat while its wet and your doing artwork. It helps blend all the colors. Never had any problem. Should have touched on satin and gloss mixing some
Wow and to think I was going to skip this video. I'm super glad i didn't. I can honestly say this video was 100% useful information and 0% bs. Thank you for sharing all this knowledge and making a straight to the point video.
