Thank you again for doing these kinds of test you have saved myself and many other viewers time and money. I can't wait for the candy and gun-bush videos.
You're welcome buddy
We finally get to "see" you in that Revell Chrome spray. I remember my disappointment in the Model Masters spray chrome (spent my whole allowance on a can of that) when I was a kid, thirty years ago, we've come a long way since then huh?
Great video, keep them coming. Your product reviews are some of the best in the hobby.
Decanting, exactly what I'm looking for! I saw your other video about how to decant. Great info, thanks, and keep the vids coming.
Thanks alot Robert for yet another honest, straightforward review. You are the paint Guru. Your reviews, testing, and honest commentary are an invaluable resource for me, and others, I'm sure.
Great video! I can’t wait to see your upcoming candy color video. After watching your Tamiya candy color video several months ago I recently got the courage to try my own candy apple red on a Camaro. I think it’s my best paint job to date.
Great video Rob, keep em coming I'll keep watching. What would happen if you polished it?
Hmm always learning new tips. Thanks Mr Barbatos
Another great video. Thanks for all your content, educating and entertaining!!
Thanks for showing me how to decant. I love all these colors!!
I.m into powdercoating as hobby and mix the same pigments as DYC in my clear powder....... It works.......next for me is airbrush and i have to say Robert every vid gives me good tips. Glad i found your channel and didn t skip to quick.
What a great hack! The Montana Gold copper is really a great result.
As always, thanks again for more incredible tricks.
You're welcome John
Paul from NB Canada! Another GREAT review!!! Now to see if I can get some of that Revell Chrome!!
Happy to have found this video. I'm new to airbrushing, and my first attempt is likely going to be using some decanted Krylon cans. I've been trying to determine what was an appropriate thinner to use and how much. You've given me some good ideas.
You also make the decanting process much simplier. Originally I was going to puncture the cans and decant them entirely. But now I see that's not neccessary.
Great video Robert. I'm curious how each of these would hold up with a good candy and/or clear coat applied over the top. I know that usually makes for a perfect disaster with most of these paints, but I'm always hopeful that some day we'll find that secret sauce that gives the perfect chrome, and colored chrome, glossy look without ruining the piece! R.I.P. to the Pledge Clear Gloss floor polish. ✌️😎
Nice video! I will look foward for those candy colors
Enjoyed and appreciate the testing done here. As a general tip for knowing how your paints are actually going to look the second time you reach for a can (or hobby bottle), the first time I use one I always make a point of also spraying the cap.
When it comes to the Krylon foils. I have had the best luck and the best finish, after spraying with a gloss black. While the black is wet, I cover with the foil paint. The foil paint cures with the black and makes the paint more durable for handling. The drawback here is, you gotta come correct on both! Your black base has to be perfect as well as your foil layer.
Awesome stuff ...! I can't get enough of this.
Great comparison video, thank you!
Interesting results. I do like all the copper tones for simply copper. Now I want to try this with Dupli-Color Chrome, which I know right out of the can gives a great "Ceramic Chrome" finish like one would find on car headers.
$35 bucks a can? It better perform
It’s amazing. If you watch his test video, the Revell Chrom spray paint looks just like chrome, even without being sprayed over a gloss back base. I’d probably buy it if I could find any in stock.
@@Ryotsu2112 yeah it looks fantastic really
@@Swellington_ but honestly it’s definitely comparable to alclad, and alclad is much cheaper. It’s still impressive spray can paint can even compare to alclad though dont get me wrong.
@@Hucklefart_Dinklejartin i agree
@@Ryotsu2112⁰
Happy fathers days, amazing info! and I can't wait to see those Candy paints!
Very informative test and review 👍
awesome review as always
Great video! It's quite interesting to see how those spray can paints look when they are airbrushed. And that revel chrome is a pleasant surprise (although expensive one). One thing though, i'm not sure you get much more paint from can than from the bottle (for example alclad) because a lot of that liquid you feel as weight in the can is actually propellant (propane i think in most cases), so the total amount of actual color liquid could be roughly the same. But still, getting that chrome look is worth paying a bit extra. Keep doing great videos like this!
Awesome video as always Robert! I use that Revell Chrome and it is awesome! Im going to try out that spaz stix out. Just ordered the 2k clear a couple days ago, cant wait to try it out!
Did you clear Revell Chrome with this 2k clear? How was it?
This is a really interesting topic❤
It always drove me bonkers that even dollar store kids toys would have that cool chrome look, but it was a nightmare to find a paint that could look 1/2 as good as a dollar toy.
I've used Krylon on many outdoor train models & never had a problem on the modeling plastic used. Train cars made by Bachmann. I also used Krylon on delrin plastic train car trucks, has held up very well over the years. Note: I overspray a UV resistant clear coat to fight sunlight degradation on my outdoor train stuff. I've had very good luck over the years with Krylon on anything around the house. Even used it to affix inkjet dyes on home made decals. This finish is found in art supply stores, same as used on portrait paintings. I use the same Grex model as in the video.
I love the rabbit hole your channel has become! It's exactly these "deep thoughts" and "what if" evaluations you do. Admit it people, we all wonder about these things that "Barbatos Rex" does. Also, vapors not fumes. Yes, I'm that guy and maybe used to be an OSHA guy 😉
Happy Fathers Day sir. That looks like a nice spray gun can't wait for the video on that. Also some of those candy paints.
Great video. Love the channel.
Thanks Chris
Always had issues with chrome / foil spray can paints. Very interesting, thanks. 31:25
Great video!! Thank you!!
Great test! I'm surprised you didn't try the Krylon or Rustoleum Mirror effect. It's expensive and comes in a small can, but it supposed to go on glass and you back it with black paint. I had a mirror commission and it worked great, but I had tried a number of other chromes before I got it and the others all just looked silver. I'll have to do a regular test to check it out, because the mirror was supposed to have an old distressed look.
Another great video my friend happy fathers day
That Revell was clutch, as expected.
Overall I was sure that at least half of the non hobby cans were gonna be duds in the mirror like department. Another great video boss.👍🏼 Also happy belated Father's Day to all the dads out there!
Very cool comparison!
I've tried the krylon with somewhat decent success. I haven't tried to decant. Now I know what it will look like. Thank you
Beautiful video, thanks a ton! ❤
You're welcome buddy
The Rich 8 spray gun will be cool to see how it functions.
I love the results of some of these. The montana cans are definitely not Chrome, but they produce some great color
A lot to look forward to. Happy Father’s Day.
The big question now is, will they hold varnish or candy colors on top?
nice test, thank u!
You're welcome Stefan
I'm going to disolve a little bit of plexiglass into some acetone, then add some finger nail powder. Wish me luck.
Great job btw
Cool review.
Another terrific video. I enjoyed thanks
Those Krylon Foil Metallics are really nice. I used Alclad Copper on a part recently and was so disappointed (weirdly brown and not very metal-looking) with the way it looked that I gave it a spray with a can of Foil Metallic Copper and it looked significantly better.
You are right on with your appraisal of testors chrome. My first experience with Chrome paint was the testors spray back in the mid 80s. It was terrible then and I guess it hasn't changed. That revell is spectacular for spray can chrome. I agree krylon needs to change their caps. Nice looking paint but definitely not chrome.
Thanks for the test.
I tried Iron Lak (spelling ?) spray chrome a couple years ago and had about the same results as you got with the Gold brand chrome, nice bright silver but Not chrome.
If you want a fan cap airbrush for clears and candies, Check out the GSI Creos P-290 and Spraygunner has an adapter to us professional spray gun PPS cups with it.
I like your videos! I can watch and learn...and I don't have to clean the airbrush! The cold comes from the 1st law of thermodynamics. When the paint and gas leave the can, the heat they contain leaves too.
The best chrome spray paint I have found is called ironlak at hobby lobby (it’s on the isle with oil paints for artist it comes out wall close to the cap. 6 bucks a can. It I found if I touched befor a couple days of curing the skin oils would mess it up and any clear coat I tried dulled it to a silver
That montana Chrome was like Pearl even!
Dude, this rules! (Gives thanks to holy algorithm for bestowing upon me this content)
Happy father's day to you as well
That’s false advertising making the consumer think they are getting the mirror chrome on the cap but getting a metallic silver or gold instead. Bait & Switch. Very glad to see you decant the Revell Chrome. At $35 gotta stretch it as far as possible.
Krylon really needs to change the caps on all of those! None of them are even *CLOSE* to what their caps show!
Spaz Stix is 10 minutes from my home. Good small business.
I've decanted something before... can't remember why. I think i needed more control, like a touch up on a car? Whatever the reason = too much hassle for me to do it! The Montana colors looked good. I'd get those for a project.
I actually bought the Montana Gold Chrome myself. I gotta say mine did not turn out dull like yours. Mine was a proper mirror finish. So much so i was really shocked with how good it was. Im not sure why yours didnt turn out like mine...🤔
Best chrome paint I saw was a motor cycle restoration I’ll have to review it to find the name of paint they sprayed final product over a black base sprayed first excellent results
What size needles were you using in the airbrushes? Could the size needle affect the appearance of the paints? Another great video for comparisons. Thank you.
I think it's cheaper to buy the Revell and decant than wasting time and money on airbrush attempts at chrome. Can't find the Alclad chrome but it seemed nice also.
May we see a 2k primer test ? Possibly a plastic putty test as well ?
Great video. I am currently working on 3D printed swords. I need to get one of the blades to a deep red chrome or very high gloss. Any suggestions?
You really need to talk with someone about a camera setup! It would make your life a lot easier! 😎
i would have tried with a few drops of gloss varnish
Did you put some thinner onto the decant Revell chrome?
Hi guys. Here is hoping all of you are having a good day.
dear sir, i was just curious on the needle size you are using when you are spraying decanted sprays like these? im new to airbrush and have lots of canned sprays i want to use , thanks and more power sir
I wonder what would happen if you did a compound wax followed by a polish? Wonder what that would do to the paint?
If you're planning on eventually decanting the entire spray can, couldn't you turn the can upside down and hold the trigger until all of the propellant is discharged, then puncture the spray can and pour out the contents?
Can you clear over the foil spoons you painted
Once you decant (paint, primer, etc.) and store them in a jar, for later use: what is the shelf life?
Problem I used Montana Gold last week at work and it never fully dried. Two days later and it would pick up fingerprints. when I read the can it warns you of thists.
is it worth getting multiple size AB or get one that can change needles sizes.
Bought that rhino mask after seeing your first video with it. Not bad, just I can usually smell paints through it which I don’t believe should happen. May be one of those you get what you pay for items.
Paul from NB Canada, where can we buy your 2K line? Gundam Pros wont ship to Canada. Thanks and i look forward to more content.
Sorry buddy. The manufacturer sends me the paints and I get them to Gundam Pros. Maybe I can sell them to you directly. Send me an email with what you want and your address, I'll see if can ship them myself
nice How about a quick hand brushing SMALL parts not worth air brushing, after decanting a tiny amount? Some small engine or gundum part. Maybe not worth masking or airbrush use.
How durable is the Revell spray chrome?
I wonder if those Montana Gold paints you got could be a bad batch - I accidentally found somebody else using them ("How To Paint 3D Prints - Gold Chrome Effect" by Groundeffected) and it looks sooo much shinier in their video, really wanna try them myself.
I wonder if the solvent is degrading the plastic, so that the surface of the spoons and plates become roughened even though it may feel smooth to the touch on the paint surface. That may be why a shine can not be achieved. Did you try on metal , glass, or a different plastic?
Happy Father’s Day!
Pull this off the market 😂
When you mean hot or cold you are refering to solvent/acetone??
Forever the simple solution eludes us..lol
Since you have your own paint line, are you working on developing a chrome paint?
I sort of did. I just released a polished alloy paint that sold out in 10 minutes. It comes back in stock this week. I did a video on it a month ago. Check it out. It's pretty much chrome, just more durable
do you get different/better results if actually paint OVER black GLOSS paint vs bare plastic?
It depends on the brand of paint used. Some actually require it in the instructions
Wow, that is so good, but after replaying it, $35, this will make my wallet "thinner"
Hello is there any way I can pm you sometime I am having trouble with painting and everything I have done is not working and talk to few people and they can't Figure out. What is good on
Maybe they need to buffed out?
OT question: Is there anything that you have seen that closely emulates Dykem Blue but that would be in some paint formula form? The question relates to me and many others making their 3d printed life size r2 d2. Based on your reviews i am gonna try a few Alclad to see what works best for the dome. It is not chrome as many try to do, It is one of the type of aluminium but i have to try a live test to see how it would turn out.
Now...
Why am i asking that question. It turns out the the panels and the pies on R2-D2 dome were painted with Dykem Blue. The body was aluminium in the first movie so for some reason they choose to apply dykem blue on some of the parts, several layers of it. I guess they used whatever they had on the shelve on that day and continued with it.
The problem is that it is a dye and it fades over time so it would most likely not really work out on a 3d printed part.
Most people building their R2's are painting their panels and blue parts with Duplicolor sonic blue pearl and it comes close, but i is an automotive paint and i believe it has metallic flakes in the paint which looks great from far away but might be so so up close.
With your immense knowledge, is there anything that you can think of that resembles that very hard to duplicate Dykem. Maybe some sort of thin lacquer?
p.s was also wondering if you have any videos on painting on 3d parts or thinking of doing some videos about them. You are like the Wizard of OZ for airbrushing!
I'd say Gaia Prism Blue Black. I did a review of it
I called krylonawhile ago about the paint coming out flat,but they told me that they vacuum the paint on the cap
Hi I wanted to ask what should I use to seal in metal colours like polished aluminum? Ak extreme ones to be specific. I wanted to get your sealers to seal in the metal colours, but their out of stock. And from your previous videos i saw that you highly recommended e7 special colours sealer but you used it on chrome so i wanted to ask if it works on other metals? If not is the vallejo one a good alternative
I tested my 2K clear on chrome and it came out great. I'll have to try it on the AK Metal line. My 2K will be back in stock for the weekend
@@barbatosrex9473 what about e7 or the vallejo stuff? Thx for the response btw
@@thatonelithuanian no to Vallejo but I did like the E7
@@thatonelithuanian actually the Vallejo Metal Varnish is really good
@@barbatosrex9473 btw what varnishes did you use on ak extreme colors to protect the paint?
My results with the revell chrome.... Please beware the following...... I put a light coat on over smooth black turned out great! Maybe 30 secs to a min later I thought what the hell I'll put another coat over it... DON'T! On the thickest parts it started splitting like lightning pattern, totally ruined it. I left it in the sun to cure anyway, the parts that were good were good, sun went down and boom, the temp change turned it to a frosted silver! Again totally ruined it..
Keep it at the same temp until it cures properly. On a test piece I did get a good clear coat result with alclad klear kote. Vallejo gloss varnish (milky white stuff) totally dulled it.
Hey buddy, r u from new yawk??
I need help buddy boy. My wifes klitty ring is starting to dull. I guess ive been giving her to much action! Could i use one a dem sprays to make it shiny again ???

love your tests. don't love the plates. flat surfaces just flash in the camera so you can't really see the color or shine. curved surfaces like the spoons work way better for recording.
👍👍👍👍👍
