Thanks for saving me $40! CDN at my auto parts supplier! They had none of the 1K gloss but scads of the matte. Almost pulled the trigger lol. You're the man! Never steered me wrong so far.
Canadian Tire
For a shimmering white color, try Gaianotes clear white over a large flake silver. It gives it a really cool white metallic look.
Thanks for the tip though I am thinking about trying it over some AK White aluminum as well 😊
I learn so much from all your content. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on products, techniques, etc.
Possible reason for some seeing the yellowing on the 1k, I decanted for airbrushing and the liquid came out of a brand new can as an amber color, looks like whiskey.
Could you try the Dupl-color over the other spoons that just failed the test to see if it can correct the finishes that did fail? That would be a good test to see if it could fix other failures..
They actually do make reusable 2k spraycans. I think the company is called Car-Rep. I have no idea how it works but you don't have to break the bottom of the can to activate the hardener.
It’s great, it atomizes when it hit the air . I’ve had a can for months worn just fine
I've heard some questionable things about that particular brand. There's another brand on Amazon that does have the button on the bottom but you can freeze the can and keep it for 24-48 hours but still not as long as the Car-Rep, obviously.
Thanks for the video. I actually have used the 1k clear in 4 models with good results that made me consider not to polish the car model after clear just I normally do with other clear spray cans like Tamyia TS13 that usually does require wet sanding and polishing. With the 1k it can be cosidered done. But I always go to polishing anyway and what I like is that 1k is strong enough to avoid over wet sanding until the paint layer like it sometimes happens with TS13 that it is softer than the 1k.
The drawback of the 1k is that it takes time to fully cure and depends of the weather. It tooks 2 days during warm weather and I have experienced almost 4 days during cold weather. And if you try to recoat for better results before 48 hours and after 2 hours, there is a risk that the new application activate the previous layers not fully dried and ruin the entire model. It has happened to me, but it was my fault not readying the directions of the product before. 😱
I have been using Tamyia spray cans and they work good with 1k. I have not tested with enamels or acryiic yet. I intended to use the Tamyia lacker but thanks for the advise not to use it.
I do really like your reviews. Thanks.
I have been using Dupli-color 1k for several weeks now and it is the easiest clear to use. It has a great gloss over every type of paint I use, even over Testors enamel.
Paul from NB Canada. I am surprised at the Dupli color problems! I have been using their rattle cans for quite a while now and have never had a problem aside from one session that was operator error. Lol.
Thanks again for the great content!
I have been burned by clears reacting to the paint that I have used. I would have like to see this test over like Folk Art craft paint. Some of the brands that you used in this demonstration I have never heard of.
I got some dupli color gloss clear here in germany (it's called dupli-color aerosol art clear coat) that I use for alclad on my cosplay stuff, it never had any problem with the chrome, but I also decant it and spray it at ~15psi out of a PS-290, so that might make a significant difference
You mentioned you are trying to find a sparkle clear. I've had good luck with Mod Podge Pearlized Spray Sealer. It works best over light colors and not over dark colors. Great white pearl effect over white primer.
Thank you, I will try that
You can return them. I did the same thing for testing and returned the cans. I brought painted examples to show it wasn't a glossy finish.
16:03 when you bring it close enough the camera auto focuses on the detail, you should do that for all of them, it suddenly lets us see the surface texture
I've never been able to get a good finish with rattle can gloss coats. Also I make sure that I mention your page whenever I answer someone's question in the many modeling pages I'm part of on Facebook.
Barbatos Rex's Show, best in television viewing well done! All day I'm to words that teach me! 😊
Thank you for clear test, I’m using mcw green enamel for the first time, maybe I’ll try the duplicolor over the green?
Great test and video. It's good to know what works and what doesn't. Always enjoyable.
Good video! Thanks for doing this! Their is a 2k in a can that has unlimited can life after use, it’s call CAR-REP 2k in a can! Works great!
The orange & black Upol clear #1 is the good one.. the Urethane.. I cant believe the others suck that bad!! But you probably saved alot of headaches, one here forsure, because i would of tried it eventually 🤷♂️
All the best to Jess.
Cheers
Phil
Those brands your testing should be available worldwide as they're both big brands , I use the upol auto filler over here in the UK. Simoniz clear acrylic lacquer is pretty good as is they're gloss black
I think I will probably be using KBS though I will probably be picking up some 2k clears down the road once I feel confident in my airbrushing since I'm still learning.
From experience nothing beats 2k gloss, I've found that alot of the spray can clear gloss needs plenty of coats and cutting and polishing to get the high gloss finish
Testors wet look lacquer is very good
You should add Carep 2k clear to the mix
I might wanna try the dupli-color acrylic lacquer for figures that I don't really want glossy. I've been looking for something affordable but durable.
Barbatos Rex, love your videos and the cool colors you turned me on to. Quick question: How do you remove 2k clear that is fully hardened from a model ? I need to totally start over. Thanks Bud
Where did you find the little dusting brush?
I love it!
It's a tamiya anti static brush
I've used the Dupli-color 1K in the past. Had a problem with drying, seemed to take forever. Other then that, it looked great
Great video, thanks again.
I paint model animals and have to prime them usually use rustolium primer and acrylic paint and sometimes even though I clearcoat with rustolium clear I get crackling. I wish you would do one with primer and clearcoat spray can to get the best choice. Love your videos.
Awesome video again!!
Thanks and keep'em coming!
I'll stick with your 2k line of clears. I was working on a '40 Ford kit for my buddy who has one he shows. I bought a can of touch up from Express Paints using his color code. Tested it on a spoon over Mr. Surfacer 1500 and it was awesome, no issues. Sprayed it on the model car body and it attacked the plastic. I'm sticking with hobby/model paints.
Always check the ingredients if possible. Lots of paints contain acetone, and they aren't good for any kind of model kit. I use Dupli-Color primer all the time, but I have to be sure to get the right primer/sealer as some of theirs also contain acetone. If you're ordering custom paint like that you could ask for a MSDF sheet and looks for any solvents listed. It's also helpful to pay attention to the type of plastic you're using. Not all solvents react the same. Enamel is great on styrene, but it will weaken ABS or other plastics.
On the bright side, floor polish wouldn't have anything like acetone in it.
I used the 1K Clear Pearl on a guitar body. Looked beautiful. Unfortunately it never seemed to dry. I ended up stripping the body to start over.
how about rustolieum spray paint colors
WOW!!! This was a surprising video. The results were shocking! Thanks again for another awesome video! Question about your Mecha Empire paints, specifically your 2K gloss black. Have you partnered with a Canadian supplier so that we can purchase it up here? Or do you know if one of your current suppliers ships to Canada? As much as I love Alclad's gloss black, you and your hard work over the years have helped me so much, and I'd love to support you by buying your brand.
I thought I found a good 'spray can' Clear, (other than Tamiya), but I noticed that it 'Yellowed' after a few years. So I'm a bit sceptical now, unless I know the results first.
Hi, You ever been tempted to try STUDIO G's GPaint line?
Yet another great video and probably saved me a few bucks
I could have sworn you tested these dupli sprays a while back but i do get sleep whenever i can lol.
The website has the name as U-Pol, so it probably sounds like you'-pole.
I'm surprised it didn't craze the Vallejo acrylic!
What color is the color shift firebird? Also fo you have a video on it?
If you were to decant the DupliColor 1K Gloss Clear and spray it through your airbrush, what would you use the clean the airbrush afterward?
when you are clearing do you do a wet sand and apply another coat?
I don't, just a straight up spray test
I use te DupaColer2K an I haven't had any problems with it an I LOVE the pop once it hits the paint
I'm going to have to get some of that Duplicolor Clear. Since it worked well with everything else I'd assume it works equally well with Tamiya acrylics? I've had generally really good results with Tamiya's gloss spray in the can but occasionally it will attack decals. (If the kit didn't cost so much, it would have felt kind of humorous when I got some decal bubbling on the 1/6 Tamiya Honda Africa Twin's decals which were applied over Tamiya spray-can white and sealed with their own gloss clear! Luckily it was pretty minor but frustrating still.)
The key to spraying Tamiya over decals is to do very light mist coats with 15 minute intervals in between. Putting to much down at once or to often hastens the chemical reaction which in turn begins to affect the decals.
It does work well with Tamiya Acrylics
I skipped the Duplicolor pearl.
Has anyone tried 1 or 2k gloss over Aqueous gloss?
Yes it works great
a lot of the clear coats take a bout 20 minits to 25 to get mix right 10 up and 10 down as every thing settles and un mixes .
Huh?
@@blueline308 Munitorum-Varnish and even the dork tower aproved varnish needs to be shaken a long time
I’ll stick with my 2K clear thank you.👍👍
Letting the cans sit outside on a warm day or heating them in warm water helps with that.
Could the Tamiya lacquer that got destroyed by the 1k have to do with the spoon? That’s the compostable spoon you tested recently and I wonder if that may have something to do with it.
You prononced it right. ''you pol''
After watching your video on Chrome spray paint, I bought Revell’s chrome paint, but I now need to put an acrylic clear coat to protect it for an outdoor application… Any advice?
In this video I test all types of clear over Alclad Chrome. Maybe one of these will work
ua-cam.com/video/kB9wwCyG1dw/v-deo.htmlsi=sBvWeL-TdYXol_O4
Quick question, please. On these cans it does say to spray at a certain distance cause of the chemicals inside of the can that propel the paint and if it gets on your projects what happens is any form of a mess up like it might eat away at your piece your painting unless wood I think that doesn't apply to wood but other stuff they require you to spray at a distant to get the proper coating with I think is ok for the 1st cover but what about the 2nd coat? I have used other stuff and seen how the paint came out on a model car I had done where some paint might get crackly or too much overspray and the drips down on the edges which be for the overuse but I heard others talk about those horror stories so I see your up close and personal how does it affect your overall project
By chance will you do a review of Tru Color Paint any time soon thanks for the great videos
Which colors would you like to see? Auto? Railroad?
@@barbatosrex9473 I guess both lol and also what other thinners and clears work with them Thanks
@@thomasmccaskill5197in use lacquer thinner with them. Any type of clear will work
@@barbatosrex9473 Thank you
I've been using "rustoleum 2X" clear and have had no problems. Thanks for the testing that you do.
I've been using that as well, until my Alclad Aqua Gloss comes in the mail. No issues with the Rustoleum either but you have to spray it carefully. Still ends up looking good, after a wet sand, cut, polish and wax.
I call the upol you poll
Be careful, Scale Model Techniques on YT will tell you it's a "Toxic Cocktail". I've been using this line up and even color match cans for years with no issues.
My buddy uses them too. I decanted Duplicolor Toyota red for a kit and it came out perfect
@@barbatosrex9473 currently working on a Rocket Bunny Supra Mk4, and went with Duplicolor color match Gun metal and high temp clear, as well as, La Colors turquoise nail polish (thinned) and Molotow chrome pen for wheels. Great color and paint combo IMHO.
Any chance your 2k clear will be available in Europe soon? I'd really love to buy and try it as my experiences with other clears (Vallejo) are really bad and I'm a bit hesitant to just hit&miss other brands :(
I enjoy your videos.
I tried to order you 2k clear on your link and couldn’t find it listed. Is it out of stock for now
i personally dont like the 1K auto clear because it yellows way to much on white paintjobs and has ruined some paintjobs ive done on projects
Interesting, how well does that stuff take to being de-canned?
Man the UPOL was terrible for most of the testing.
Voy a estar adentro del parking
That green looked amazing thank you
yikes, that Upol brand.
Glad that I didn't try
Hello everyone. I hope all of you are having a good day.
Why u shaking hands?
