- In this video I demonstrate a really cool spray paint trick to create this awesome nebula sparkle finish using spray cans and dry glitter. I love this trick and I hope you guys will too.
All you need for this is your clear coat, some fine sparkle/glitter, and of course the appropriate safety equipment.

I love how rock music is playing as he's sprinkling glitter, great video brad
This would have also worked with some Freddy Mercury.😎
I was thinking the same thing 🤣
SDR101 - what is the song called?
Everyday Showday 'Get back in the game' by Clandestyne
You had me at Pink Taco! 🤣
I like my tacos pink.
Looking good Brad
That Spraymax 2k stuff is AMAZING. Yes you have to cover up seriously but it builds REALLY easily! Totally worth $20 a can.
HEY BRAD, your the best man, I just gave my boy the guitar , that I painted with the nitrocellulose paint that I watched you do, he was so impressed and happy with the guitar, THANKS A MILLION, one sad pathetic guitar turned into something that made my son so happy , now that's worth a million bucks.... thanks again man.
I’m so happy to hear that. That’s fantastic. Thanks for taking the time to tell me.
Thanks for the tip, I can’t wait to use this technique
you know Brad you are actually over explaining but it always helps us. So keep it up😘😘😘
I'm impressed Brad ! This is art. Nailed it. Respect.
Thank you sir.
Best finish so far, love this and would love to see it over a candy color next time! This WILL be my next guitar finish! Silver-ish, some light candy color, color changing sparkle, Telecaster with a maple neck and the same sparkle treatment on the headstock! Ooouu, just got goosebumps...
So sick. Love the color and sparkle.
Pink taco kills me too
Fab! Thank you!
Great tutorial as always! Thanks for your great work!
Thanks for watching.
Looks awesome Brad, i want it, lol, thabk you for sharing with us, much appreciated, Cheers
I always learn something new. Thanks dude
Cool! Im gonna try this
Wow!! This is siiiick!! Great job!
Thank you
Love this !!!
I hate being a stickler, but being a painter i have to say this. The sparkle and glitter turned out much better than i expected. The clear though, that was rough. If it were me, id put about 3, or even 4 more coats (since its spray cans) then cut and polish smooth. It may sound like a lot for little, but it will add so much clarity to the depth of your nebula
Towards the beginning, he says that he is going to put on a few more coats in a few days. Good catch though, most people wouldn't think about it.
More coats and a proper cut and polish would be absolutely necessary to turn this into a proper finished product.
More great tips again, Brad. Thank you!
I've noticed that in the UK, we can get small bags of the "glitter" that you mix into your paint before either brushing it on or loading it into a spray bottle.
This technique you've used here would be ideal for this product (although I've only seen it in gold or silver).
You can probably find dry pearl or mica powder that would work well over there as well.
Beautiful result here; thx for the info!!
Thank you
Thanks for the idea Brad. I'm not a big sparkle fan but this looks really cool! Thanks for sharing my friend!
Cheers Wallace.
EXELLENT 👍🏼💯 Thank for the tip
I am so glad to find out about your shop. That way I can support you and confirm my selections are good. I had specced out that full face mask previously - glad to see it has your approval. Will definitely buy through your link soon!
Thank you. I’ve found that mask very helpful.
this was a very informative video. excellent job man. thank you
Thanks Patrick
Nice Brad!
Looks awesome!👍😎🎸🎶
Way cool! Favorite so far! Even the music 🎶
Thank you
Thats was great, just refurbished a BC Rich warlock, my first rebuild and I’m still learning to play to
Very Nice thanks.
This is your best finish ever. Great job!
I’m glad you like it!
Pretty sweet!
Beautiful. Now i know how I am going to paint my explorer bass
superb
Love it Brad..so Cool ur such a Badass
Haha thanks Dave.
Looks really cool, I'm a painter who does custom bikes, I get a similar effect with a big air cap 1.8 and put the glitter in the clear, then give it 2 more coats, I like to use it over flip flop paints, it really pops when the sun hits, or spotlights, I've done some plain black wheels and just put glitter in the top coats, that shows up in light but just looks black when in the shade, very popular locally with guys into modding there cars.
Great idea, especially just using a rattle can.
Thanks Anthony. This would be very interesting over chameleon paint. I’ll have to give that a try.
please show this after sand and polish.
Unfortunately he stripped the paint job in another video.
@@carvinblack This paint job is still there actually. I plan to do a sand and polish on it do demo some new polish.
@@BradAngove Ahh ok. I saw you putting the paint remover paste on the finish in the other video and I had to turn it off because I didn't want to witness the nice job being ruined. Lol. You actually inspired me to do a sparkle job on my old 90's Crate 212 Speaker Cabinet. If I could bend your ear? The cabinet is particle board. I am using Rustoleum for all paint. So I did a bunch of Primer/Sealer. Now I am onto the Metallic base coat. Should I wet sand the Metallic before I do the sparkle or just wait till after the clear coat. I think I saw in another video that you don't have to buff base coat if you sanded. Thanks man. BTW the Metallic isn't super textured right now but I do have two more cans to spray.
Your videos are so full of valuable information thank you.
Thanks for watching.
Great lesson!.. I researching methods to paint my bike and this video has my mind spinning with ideas. Thanks for "over explaining" its way better than only getting half the intfo.
Glad you liked it
Nice job. I've actually done about 6 guitars using a similar technique but fully flaking it. It takes a lot of work clearing it but look great when completed.
I know this comment is old af, but that sounds so cool! Do you have pics? Either a link or that you could upload to UA-cam. Would love to see how it turned out.
Perfect timing! I got a guy asking me to build him an Eko Rocket style in silver galaxy sparkle. Now I know just how to build him his dream guitar! Thanks, Brad+
Glad I could help!
Colour me impressed!
Nice job mate.
Thanks Mark
Really cool!!!! You're great! I need to do this! Just subscribed!
Thank you Rocklyn
Ok, that is by far the coolest spray - can job so far Brad. That would look really awesome on a bedroom ceiling. Anyway, very creative.
Oh man, that would be super cool, but you would end up with an absolutely insane amount of sparkle on the ground.
@@BradAngove Haha...
Looks good
Thanks
Wow! That really turn out awesome! I’ve got a BC Rich Warlock I’m going to do this with in time. I like it. Thanks for doing this vid as always. Stay Awesome
Thanks James. I hope it goes well for you.
Did you do it?😳
Sweet!!!!!!!!
Cool thx 😎
Oh man I just got my guitar kit and this is the perfect colors to go with.
Excellent
Beautiful job.
Thank you.
Sparkly!
Gave me a great idea on how I want to do my panels for my 04 impala appreciate the blessings
holy geez thats koo... i wanna do a starcaster kit... might do this glitter spray idea!
I was thinking of doing this to my valve cover I had seen that they use this kind of glitter for those candy paint jobs lol so I figured use that same technique for my valve cover using hi temp primer and high temp clear coat to seal the flakes in i just didn't really know how to make the galaxy but now I do lol thanks a lot.
Inspirational
that's hella cool
Thanks
I'll hold off on the pink taco, I already got one of those (ha!). But now I gotta find something to nebula, that looks awesome!
I hope it goes well for you.
Loved the video!
I will look at your other videos but have you tried the different colored glitter on a lighter colored background, like silver? I'm thinking of painting my wheels but don't want them black even with the color glitter over the black. Thanks!
I haven’t got a video on that, but putting glitter on lighter backgrounds is fine. It’s just a different effect.
It came out great! I like it. 😁
Thank you!
@@BradAngove you're welcome!
Very cool effect. I would like to see it again after the polishing you mentioned.
Your effort is admirable, but you seem to have mastered the art of orange peel finishes.
Hahaha yeah, I’m obviously not going to add another 3 coats and then cut and polish this one. That would just be more paint that I would have to strip off afterward.
Very nice, coincidentally I purchased that same brand sparkle dust at Walmart to do mine. I'm doing a Kramer Baretta body with a dark burgundy background paint with silver sparkle then am going to sunburst with black. Thanks for the video as it helps, I've painted many guitars over the years but never used sparkle dust. Now I know what to expect so thank you.
I hope yours goes well.
Nice job.
Thank you Brad for a great video, I was actually contemplating on making a sparkle finish. I have a question. I would like to make a silverburst with the silver having sparkle in it (kinda like on PRS SE Mike Mushok Baritone guitar). I was thinking: Primer -> Silver -> Black on edges as a burst -> First coat of clear -> adding the sparkle in the silver -> and finish it with clear. Do you think that is just too many layers?
If you are careful about your dry times, that should be fine. You can also use the silver Rustoleum glitter spray to add sparkle to the silver.
Man, I've been working on my bass for 3-4 months and just got on your channel, and damn I want that "Galaxy paint" so bad, your content is so good and well explained! I can't wait to finish my bass with this Galaxy-nebula-space paint!
I’m glad you like it. I hope your paint job goes well.
Nebula Sparkles it is lovely I wanna buy one of these ✨
Hi, your video is great. I have one question: is it possible to make sparkle contours on already painted guitar (see-thru)?
You can use masking to apply sparkles to specific areas if that’s what you mean.
Thank you so much . I plan to try your techniques on a couple of snare drums . Would this work on metal ?
There’s no reason it wouldn’t work on metal as long as your prep and prime it properly.
I would’ve added just a little white but it does look really amazing great job dude
Could you use a popcorn salt shaker for the glitter application?
This is just standard Rustoleum clear since it’ll stay wet for a bit to grab the glitter, right?
Yes and yes
I’m doing this on a drum kit soon , did u do 2nd coat of clear coat before it dried ? Or once it dried
I think I did a second before it dried. Then let it finish drying, sanded smooth, and added more later.
Thank u
does anyone know what it will look like on a lighter color
That is looking different and keep it with many more different colours of sparkle on any parts cheers
Hey Brad can I use a 2mm tip for large flakes?
Hey you just gave me an awesome idea because I'm gonna paint my car n do a mural on my hood of a galaxy..n the glitter technique really come into play ..my aunt was always saying I got glitter n I was like wth? Why would i do glitter ...NOW I GET IT !...thanks bro..oh ..I mean...pink taco 😉
Hey Brad, I would like to know where you found that guitar body that you used in this video, I've been looking for one of those for quite a few years now and they are hard to find, thank you.
I got that from a friend of mine actually. I’m not sure where he got it or what guitar it was from. It was just to do test paint jobs on.
That's radical never saw your Amazon link
Wonderful! I d like to paint a strato rosegold Sparkle or champagne Sparkle. Should i use a dark color for the first coat in order to make glitters shine or i should go rosegold directly? Should i mix some gold glitters with rosegold glitters to make It more "sparkly"? Thanks!
For a better sense of how to basecoat something like that I think you should check out my tutorial on glitter paint jobs.
Nice work Brad. Reminds me of a spray I just learned about last night. Duplicolor's clear effex. It gives a kind of metallic rainbow-ish sparkle. I'd love to see you do something with that.
That would be interesting for sure.
That is gorgeous! I’m looking at adding glitter to my rc paint job. You mentioned after placing the glitter to use 2 or 3 coats of clear base. Do I need to do that when I’m backing it with pink and black paint? Thank you
You need something for it to stick into initially and something to seal it in after. If you’re applying it directly to your colored base you will still want some clear to seal it in.
@@BradAngove awesome thank you for responding I appreciate it
helllooooooo hottie! great bonus to watch on your videos! i am going to watch all of them now lol
Hey Brad, love your videos and I'm trying to do a paint job, but no luck finding an accurate description/guide on how to do an eerie dess swirl like the ones Jackson guitars use to do back in the day, would you consider doing a video on that particular finish? Thanks and keep the great content going.
I’m not very good at swirl work, but I’ll look into it.
Hay there Brad I was just winding if this process would work on a burst. I was thinking about using some Oxford lacquer or would there be a better way. I would like to see the quilted Maple top so transparent, I guess. What do you think? Thank you very much for answering my other question.
You could build it into the clear coat stages after a burst. It’ll take a while to get it leveled off with lacquer, but it’s certainly possible.
Hey did yours dry smooth to the touch? Or does it feel sort of gritty? Did you bury it in clear coat?
It feels a bit textured. It would need to be sanded a bit and then would need 3-4 more coats of clear added in order to allow for flat sanding and buffing.
If you use the 2K, do you have time to toss the different glitters before it hardens.
Yes. It doesn’t dry to the touch that much faster (unlike nitro).
i'm doing something very similar on my drums. I want there to be enough layer on it so I can see the glitter but not feel it. So far I've been using spray on crystal clear enamel. Should I switch to something else for the final coat?
No, if that’s what you’ve been using I would stick to that.
Im gunna do this on my a 7 string Harley Benton. I have an EMG 707 in the guitar so it plays like a gem.
Whoaaaa awesome only behind? Some video when you play it!
Hey love the effect! Will be doing something similar in my car! But just got 1 question what’s the size of the glitter? You said extra fine is there not a specific mesure?
There’s no specific measure for this stuff because it literally came from a craft store haha. They don’t exactly tell you how many microns you’re dealing with.
@@BradAngove oh uff it’s that small tbh I will go for 0.3mm glitter
And thank you for your reply 🙏
I normally spray glitter mixed with thinned out clear but your method seems a whole lot simple
Cheers
That’s more the typical method. If you have a gun with a large nozzle, spraying it is a great option. Probably the preferable one.
Awesome job! Totally trying this. What is the music you used in this video?
It’s from epidemic sound. I believe the song is called “get back in the game”
Hey man for the first black paint can I use those spray can to paint the base?
Yes
Wow! That is just awesome! Very Hubble space telescope like! I cant wait to see more! Hey who is the music is by? Ive watched and listened 3 times!
The song is called “get back in the game”. I got it from epidemic sound. Not sure who it’s by unfortunately.
I’m glad you like the video!
What would you use if you wanted a red sparkle as base you used black would white look better with red
That just depends on the effect you’re going for. You may want to consider a red base.
Nice. Would like to see after clear and polish.
Hey brad so just curious when you put the first layer of clear and threw on the sparkle did you wait an hour for the glitter to settle then put on the second coat of clear or just threw the glitter then second clear coat?
Second clear coat is 10-15 minutes after first as per the usual recoat times.
Brad Angove Thank you I’m trying to do just a purple sparkle on one of my guitars but using the technique you’re using in this video it’s helping me a lot but was just unsure about the clear coat timing. Does the sparkle dry into the clear after the 10-15 mins? I’m just trying to avoid having a pile of it honestly
@@braydencariveau7645 The 10-15 minute window is when the clear is dry enough to re coat but still wet enough to have chemical adhesion from the solvents in it without you having to worry about sanding before painting more.
Nice,
how many coats of lacquer did you put on first? how much is enough to go on towards the sanding and polishing stage .. thanks you!
Just one coat at the beginning. After that it depends on how many it takes to bury the texture.
Brad Angove would 10 minutes between each coat of lacquer be okay?? i’m planning on having my guitar hung on hooks as i flick the extra fine flakes on
A sifter or a salt or pepper shaker works great too
You can also combine the different glitters in a single process.
@@antoniop3352 possibly put the black glitter down first, couple coats of clear, then go with the other colors...?
