Dude, this was absolutely awesome. You provided enough detail without making this video super long and boring. And all of the examples were perfect. Even the detail as far as using brake cleaner to start all over was VERY HELPFUL! Thank you!
when using rattle cans its best to hit the object with long continuous sprays rather than a bunch of little short sprays. When doing little quick sprays it tends to bead up the paint on the nozzle and you will get spatter more often than if you just hit a long continuous spray that you use to cover a larger area. Even using one long continuous spray to hit the entire object as a coat is better than small sprays that could lead to spatter. Just a tip u may wanna try brother
thanks for the video. never tried the metal cast paints.they look fun....lots of uses
Chris Davis Yes for sure!
I used to use this stuff back in the day ... I was into lowriding and back then some of us couldn’t get our rims anodized or buy them anodized ... so I’d tape up the spikes and hit the outter lip and it would come out nice ... or I’d tape up the barrel and paint the spokes ... you can use it for a lot of cool stuff 👍🏻
I love it for color matching taillights and other lamps in the car.
I did a set of side markers in green to match my car, and with amber bulbs they still shine amber light.
I've been wanting to repaint my wheels for awhile now, They're currently black but I want to either do a bronze or a silver metallic look next. Thanks for the video!
Andrew Does Life I love the bronze look so much! And no problem
I'm going to strip the paint on my aluminum bike how would I be able to paint it with silver primer and then spray it or just use the duplicolor
For the chrome or polish things etc. Does the spray paint have to be metallic for it to have that shine reflect back?
As a VW guy, I'm a big fan of metalcast.
Hella colored taillights are 300$ or more ,and I wanted a green set to match my green car.
Voila ,green metalcast and 2 coats of clear and they look like a million bucks.
On another VW ,I changed the amber part of the lens to red so it is only 2 colors (white and red) for a more uniform look.
Usually 2 coats does it ,and a couple coats of clear to match.
Who ever can do a whole car with the candy can method will be champ cmon James I know you’ll be that guy
I want to do my fat bike in that chrome red
Cool, a James D video! I was worried that with your move to Texas you'd be slowed down on production. Thanks for this video, I've viewed the paint at Pep Boys and wondered how it looked. Nice results here. And love the idea of the chalkboard paint! God bless you and your family, my friend.
unstablebobgable We got time since we had a hold up so I figured I would put a video or 2 out
I love it! Finally someone who knows how to use this. Seen so many videos of people spraying this over whatever color the thing was before expecting a pretty candy color, being disappointed, and calling it a ripoff. I've used the blue and the orange metalcast.
sinformant I have used it a lot in the past with amazing results. Just gotta know how to paint it really. It’s easy if you do it right
Will this stuff stick to stainless sttel? Like on a Yeti rambler tumbler 30 oz drik mug?
Just want to ask 1thing! How to paint transparently?
Like if i make a metal swirl pattern,and i wanted the swirl pattern painted but still be able to see the pattern for the "burst" effect,what would be the best method?
Ive made some cool stuff with silver base and red, blue, and purple. I think local oreillys charged 18 per can.
i painted some chrome wheels with the blue duplicolor metalcast..came out looking great! only problem is i feel as though the paint is very THIN and chips very easily.. i hit it with some adhesion promotor before painting...
Lobo Entertainment That’s a good idea I had some right behind me i thought about using it but it’s mostly demonstration but I should have mentioned that. It’s definitely thin paint
Great video as always. Will this stuff work with the primer as a base? Or perhaps the silver over the primer and the paint on that?
Cory Brown Has to be silver or the aluminum. I’m sure other colors might work but it might not come out as good. But primer then silver yes that would work.
I couldn't listen to all the audio but what made you choose rustoleum for a basecoat instead of the recommended MC100 duplicolor silver anodized base?
allnovieveryday The only reasons is because the only place that sold it wasn’t open and this stuff works the same.
Duplicolor does sell a "primer" with the metalcast lineup, its called the Ground Coat, but this rustoleum silver is pretty close to what that can does too
4drek I never looked at it like that. But it makes sense. At the end I did say that they make a silver made to go under the color coat though lol. But yea it’s basically a silver flake paint.
@@JamesDguy yeah I didnt have the volume up while watching (lunch break at work lol) but ive used both the ground coat and the rustoleum silver you used, the outcome is identical either way, i just found the ground coat to spray smoother
4drek Yea any silver would shoot better than this frozen can of rustoleumI was using. It was literally 12-14 degrees that night in the garage. Outside was colder lol
@@JamesDguy I did a chrome go-kart steering wheel with the yellow metalcast, it really pops over a polished surface.
Thanks, i seen this stuff the other day and thought about doing my CRX in it. Glad i seen this or I would have wasted $100 on paint.
I know.its a year old...
But if you follow the directions...most importantly is applying this over chrome or other shiny surfaces, then it works as advertised..
Anything else and you get the results shown here..
I shot some over a gloss bright white and got EXCELLENT results. .
Would metalcast work out on say an engine block?
Currently working on a build and I can't decide what I want to do with the engine block and accessories that are too big for me to powdercoat.
Very informative video
I have a couple of CnC pieces that I want to paint anodized orange there already kinda shiny and nice would I need specifically a base coat for them, if you want I could email you pictures of the pieces and you could tell me? Thanks
Isn't the Rustoleum an enamel paint? Are there any issues painting the metalcast over it since I think the metalcast is a lacquer? I'm thinking about using the metalcast stuff for model kits. It seems to have a relatively fine spray, so I think it'd work good on really small parts.
TotemoGaijin I never had issues painting the rustoleum base with Duplicolor over it.
@@JamesDguy How about clear coating? Would rustoleum be fine for that too?
Came out nice! Been wanting to try their copper coating over chrome wheels
That would be a nice look
Can the Duplicolor metalcast be used over VHT caliper paint?
What’s the name of the spray bottle product and where did you buy it bruh
can i do a whole coupe with these cans of duplicolor
Yo bro do you think these would go good on like plastic ? Painting my moped..
I love the blue
Hey bud, hows Texas treating YOU so far ?? Hope everything goes well for ya.
OG OG we aren’t there we got held up on a few things but it’s coming soon! Gives us more time to pack up more.
You can do a whole car with dupalacolor. However I never use rustoleum. Thanks for the video enjoyed it. I'm not shure about the metal cast though.
Ken Sendelofski Yea the Metal cast is no easy feat when doing a whole car I have done so many Rustoleum paint jobs and it’s amazing how they turn out for the last 11yrs never had a issue with Rustoleum or duplicolor the worst ones I have had when painting entire cars would be metal cast duplicolor and the krylon crap it never worked good for me.
@@JamesDguy what's different about metal cast and regular metal spray paint. I wanna do my brake caliper on my dirtbike
Where do you buy that air filter at? It looks like a ssqv bov. It'd be hilarious to cut.a hole in it and slip it over my actual ssqv make it look cartoonishly large lol
sinformant This was one we had laying around bought years ago off eBay. It’s actually a decent filter. That would be funny though I would love to see what it looked like after. It does look like a blow off valve though
Lol I was thinking how it does look like a blow off valve.
How is it that you do not have to wait 10 minutes between coats?
Been wanting to try that stuff on hotwheels cars 🤔😂✌
Adhesion promoter ?
How do I change the color if it doesn't look good
Bro@JamesDGuy I just bought all my high gloss black paint today soon as it stops raining I'm going in
jason griffin heck ya 💪🏻
@Robert MacDonald I am gold glitter
Sweet
Why not use their MEtalcast base coat?
Did rocker cover... light coats.... nothing but runs.
Its hard to apply evenly without run on an item like a rocker cover if just doing DIY
when using duplicolor metal cast you should first spray the adhesion promoter.
Triforce FTW!
Dude this paint is ment to over a base silver or gold to achieve the correct look
you forgot to mention how you dont worry about overspray
The finished product never looks the same as the cap on the can eh
Respirators are for bunnies
I chalk board painted my whole car.
Jim Bo I will be doing another one soon.
@@JamesDguy it was pretty cool, when I took it to the drag strip, I could use chalk to write my number on the side, along with snarky comments.
Jim Bo That’s something I have done too!
no light in this video pay electricitti
Who ever can do a whole car with the candy can method will be champ cmon James I know you’ll be that guy
