Killer job dude!! I love when I can watch a video of pinstriping to get stoked to paint. Nice little tip I learned to prevent the skinning from happening to the paint, you open the fresh can, pop a nut or marble in it and seal it again, then poke a hole at the top and put a screw into it. When you pour a couple times the paint will dry around the screw to seal it. And the marble makes for a nice permanent mixer lol. Keep it up the killer work!!!
Thanks my friend!! 😁 Gkad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY! And thanks for the amazing Intel Soldier!!😉 Brilliant ideas!! Thanks for the feedback and support!👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
This is what I love to hear!! I was mentored by a 66 year old gentleman who goes by Von Ander, I'm still soaking in all the variances of the skill set!! I hope I did it justice , and more importantly!! I hope the next generation decides to pick up the brush and start lettering themselves!!! This is my Goal!! In a world where technology is taking over... its nice to be able to pass on the knowledge to those who search it out!! Cheers and Much Love!! p.s. feel free to add anything you think I missed, or something you think I should cover in another Video!! Thanks again for the support!
Appreciated the reasoning behind the mineral spirits over turp. Additionally, I think this is the first video I have seen where "how to gauge" the thickness of the paint was discussed. Most either assume that you know or "you'll figure it out" after a gallon of paint. Good job! More lettering lessons please.
Thanks broski!! Your support and feedback are greatly appreciated my friend!! 😁👍Stay Turned for More!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Thanks for making this video! Im trying to learn how to pinstipe and hand paint on my own. This video answered alot of those little questions after 10min of playing with a brush. Great humor and nice work! Thanks again and cant wait to see more
Thanks for the amazing feedback my friend!! I'm glad to know its has helped you out!! 😁 keep slinging that paint my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
being is the sign business since 1985. i did work in a sign supply shop for a few years. their was one man that comes to mind. Larry Hooks he would come in every month and buy a list of half pints of one shot paints. he was the master of hand lettering in Rhode Island. great how to video. keep them up.
Wow!! A true LEGEND!! Must have had a few golden conversations, all that time in the industry!! I know us painters are a strange breed!! ;) Thanks for sharing!! Cheers and much Love!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. I've learned as I am closing my 1shot can, to have the cover on top of the can and raise an edge a touch and exhale into the can expelling the oxy in the can. Snap it shut before you stop exhaling. Then leave the can upside down until ready to use again. No skin on top. Entertaining video.
Dude u have some wicked talent. Your vids are educational kinda behind the scenes and also entertaining. U make me laugh throughout the vids. Keep up the awesome work
Thanks Broski! Glad ta know I'm not laughing alone here!! I refuse to be another boring teacher!! I want to Inspire, not lecture!! And have a lill fun along the way!! x) Cheers my Friend!!
Great to find a fellow leftie teaching lettering! I’m trying to teach myself, through loads of TH-cam vids and beer-soaked practice, and I noticed you also go from right to left. It’s the only way I can keep the side of my palm from smearing it all. Would love to see more process lettering vids 👍
Glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY my friend!!😁 Us lefties have it tough...🤔 we have to reverse engineer almost everything to make it work for the left side! 😶 however, this only grows and strengthens the creative side of a person!! 😉👍 so I'm happy to be a part of the left hand clan! Lol Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I enjoy your videos and have learned pretty much everything I know about airbrushing from you. I do happen to know a bit about pinstriping and hand lettering though, and just wanted to mention that if you don't plan to clearcoat over One Shot it is a really good idea to use a catalist. One Shot sells a hardener that works great.
Austin Knowlton thanks for the great Intel Soldier!! I have 1SHOT hardener.... but it hardened.... lol!! Great advice my friend!! 😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!🤘
I had no doubt that you knew about the hardener brother, I just thought I would put that out there for anyone who wants to try painting with One Shot. Ever since they changed the formula it's nowhere near as durable as it used to be. Ten years ago you could use it straight from the can and it would be there damn near forever but not anymore. HOK is the same way. Gotta love environmental regulations.
Austin Knowlton I totally hear ya!! Mind ya... led poisoning kinda sucks I've heard!🤔😉 thanks for the solid advice my friend!! Greatly appreciated by me and those who read this!! 🤘😎🤘
Yep the drop shadowing makes a huge difference no doubt Thanks for sharing. And have a Merry Christmas best wishes to you and your family and have a happy and healthy New Year
it's funny, l watched the Bumblebeast video, and the Wolf helmet and thought this guy has a signwriting background. Old GOOD habits die hard brother. l was lucky enough to teach some primary school kids the basic idea of signwriting using water based paints, man the look on there faces when they picked up a brush and had a go was simply brilliant, it's a great release for the brain to be creative. What l saw with those kids will never leave me, it was truly awesome. Keep up the great work, love your style. have a great Christmas Cheers Paul
Ah man!!! I totally hear ya!! Ive done a few courses at a lower income school and the Kids are what make it a lesson for me, rater then them!! If we could all be so unbiased towards ourselves and be more willing to try new things I'm sure we would all amaze ourselves!! Just like those kids you gave that experience to!! Love it!! Thanks for sharing!!, And a Very Merry Christmas to you and yours!! Here's to teaching the next generation!!! Cheers!! p.s. Please feel free to add anything you think I may have missed, or Ideas for future Videos that You think I should cover!! Thanks Again, Much Love!!

Thanks for the reply bro, love watching the southpaw lettering. My mom is a southpaw and she used to stripe and letter when I was a kid. Must be in the blood!!
Thanks for the support my friend!! We spend all our lives trying to become our own person .. only to find out that there is more of our parents in here then anybody else... lol!! 😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Yes, you can use the 1SHOT paint on etched glass. I've even used it on unetched glass for inside the home with success. 😁👍 Hope this helps my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I like to put a tapered screw in the top of the lid in the center of the one shot cans, the paint never skins over , last forever, just put the screw back in right after you dump the paint out u need. also try steve kafkas "smooth stroke" additive
Thanks broski!! All great Intel soldier!! I've also heard of simply shaking the can so the paint seals around the lip reducing the skin over affect!😁 The BloodShot ARMY salutes you my friend!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers from the BloodShot Studio!!
Well done bro....I'm about to do a bunch of crazy art on my van this summer...a couple questions --- what type paints are you using and where can I stock up? is there a specific make of brush? thanx man & sTaY gRooVy :)~~~
Thanks broski!!😁 Left for life!! 😉 so the paint I'm using here is called 1SHOT lettering enamel. I'm not sure where you are, but I can buy it at the local sign supply store. Brushes also. The brushes are specifically designed for this paint. The hold a lot of paint so you can pull long lines. Mack brushes are probably the best known, I loled Kafka brushes for scroll work and fine lines. My favorite brush is the Xcaliber .... and the come in all shapes and sizes. 😁 I hope this helps you out a bit!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I've always got time for my soldiers!!🤘😎 But.... 🤔 unfortunately,.... I found it at a thrift shop.... .. . If memory serves me correctly...🤔😁 I do believe they were for storing film slides... then I slapped some velcro inside to hold my brushes... hope this helps on some level.... lol 😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Hi Ryan, I have just watched this video for the second time and I know that you like feedback. I opened a tin of paint for a motorbike last week and the paint was 8 years old, there was no skin and the tin was half full, just a quick stir and I was on my way. The trick was to shake the tin after I used it and it seals the lid, thus reducing any air, which makes skin in the tin. Take Care Bro !!!!!!!
Douglas Taylor brilliant broski!! So simple yet I've never heard of it before!! Love it!!😁 Thanks for the amazing Intel soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you my friend!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
The pinstripe brushes actually act as a bit if a rutter, allowing the long bristles to compensate for the shakes! You should give it a try!😁👍 I was taught by a young buck of the ripe ol age of 64! Lol he is still laying down the occasional lines!! 😁 I hope this inspires you my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
@@BloodShotAirbrushing cool I will give it a try once I get this honda done the painting on it is next. I am hoping with in the next month or in october
I like your methods. Can you go over the best type of brushes to buy and how to tell the difference between them? Thank you for putting this out there.
I'll definitely add it to the ever growing list of new videos!! Thanks for the feedback and support!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Hey dude, just a update. Solved problem with water in the hose. Just bought a new and much better air compressor! Still working on thinning paint. I have over a 100 colors of acrylic paint that I use for my ceramic things and don't want to buy new ones. Again thank u for answering my questions and for ur advice. I think ur idea for fantastic is fantastic but bc of the virus it can't be found. LOL! Still putting my 20 hours in I WILL get to where I want to go. Thanks again! Debbie
Practice, practice .... practice!! You're in the BloodShot ARMY now son!! And WE NEVER SAY DIE, WE NEVER GIVE UP!! X) Put in the first 20 hours and I'm sure you'll be amazed at how far you've come!! Cheers & Much Love!!
I actually use an AC unit to cycle the air in my Studio, but Ive seen House hold oven range hood fans used and exhausted through windows.. You can get professional grade up draft or down draft booths of a variety of set ups.. But if your only spraying the occasional rc.. A oven hood fan should do the trick! Hope this helps! Cheers!
Hi . i just started using one shot. Do you have to use a respirator when hand lettering or is that just for spray painting. I didn't see you using a mask. Maybe I missed it.
No respirator needed. You can if you like. I definitely recommend a well ventilated area. The paints and thinners/cleaners can stink.... hope this helps you out sista!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Thanks for the amazing support my friend!! And when working with one shot, you can go either way... I didn't clear this one. So the Client will have to wax it religiously to keep it protected. Otherwise, I do prefer to wetsand the piece, paint the 1SHOT and then clear for a permanent seal! And don't forget to use hardener if you're planning on no clears. Hope this helps you out broski!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Oh this is so cool - I had no idea Flattening powder existed! FYI - 1-Shot makes "Clear Flattening Paste 4329500" in a 32oz can. It works well. Don't know how expensive the powder is, but the Paste is like $35. I have a sneaky suspicion that the powder can get you even more flat than the paste because it looks like the paste has more paint additives, etc. to make it a liquid.
I'm glad to be of service my friend!! Knowledge is ment yo be shared!! And would you believe that I've never heard of flattening paste!! 😃 so I learned something as well!! 😁👍 Thanks for the Intel soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you!!🤘😎
I was given over 30 cans of bran new 1 shot paint that was never opened but it was stored in a building that wasn’t heated and I’m in Eastern Canada so it gets well below freezing. Do you think the paint is still good or would it be garbage? Thanks for the videos brother.
Been a while since I did this. I'm sure I got it from dafont.com if that helps... Thanks for the kind words!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Thanks broski!😁👍 You'll probably laugh... it's all shot and edited on my Samsung Galaxy S7 cell phone... 🤘😎 making the best with what I have... 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
As far as I know, its called a 1SHOT flattening powder, I ordered it online so long ago.. I'm sorry, it's not the best answer I know... but Google may be able to help ya out from there!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hey thank you soo much for this video! I’m trying to paint a bare metal sign (making a custom garage sign) for the first time and was considering using one shot for the lettering portion but do you think I could use rustoleum spray paint for the base? Not sure what else I could use..
When tackling a new project or using a new product. I always recommend doing a test panel to finish. This way you'll see for your self if its will work or not. As its a process I've personally never done... I hesitate to make any recommendations.. hope this helps a bit my friend!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Bro, I know this is a old video of yours but I was watching it and you said I can’t say the C word so you described it as thick human hair and I was like huh? And kept thinking about it and then it hit me and I started dying laughing I just had to tell you. Hilarious bro. Keep it up.
Hehehehe!!! Yeah.... I try to sneak in a few jokes, just for the adults... but still trying to keep it family friendly... I'm glad it made ya chuckle!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻🤘😎
I got it online a while back... its flattening powder for lettering enamels. Google that and you should find what you're looking for! Hope this helps!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Well quarantine has had me furloughed from work so I've bought a starter kit and cant wait to do some lettering. Love the vid mannnn answered so many questions. Is the fender for your own bike?
Thanks broski! Im glad to be able to help ya out along your journey! And to answer your question, this fender was done for a client. 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
For this type of job, 1SHOT lettering enamel is reccomended! Hope this helps you out my friend!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
your videos are great, learned a bunch of lil tidbits/tricks already. question brah, i have ran into a problem when laying leaf, where the leaf sticks to parts of painted/clear areas (with no size being there) and had a disaster to the point where i carefully sanded off size and leafing to start fresh...? am i pressing to hard while laying the leaf? also my leafing looks like lil fractures (small tares it looks to me) when i engine turn em? did i miss my window? or am i pre ejaculating lol. thanks in advance!
Brandie Fox I like to use a makeup brush for applying "blush" It's a great way to sweep away any access leaf once your size is dried. Also you shouldn't need do give it access pressure. Just rub down gently with your fingertips (that's what she said)😀😆🤣😉 Hard to say exactly the cause though. As for engine turning, I like to use a slow dry size for more brilliant golds. This also leaves a nice window for the engine turning. If you wait till the size is dry. Then you may have to apply more pressure in the turning process and risk tearing and scratching the leaf. I'll try to tackle the turning within an hours of the first piece of leave being applied. I hope this answers your questions broski!!😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!🤘
Justin Sylvester glass is a tricky one... the only thing I've ever used that had any staying power is the 1SHOT paints... and even they will easily scratch... I try to stay away from painting glass. If it's etched... almost any paint will bind to the etched part... hope this helps! Cheers!
It helped, though discouragingly so...I was really hoping in that vast paint knowledge, there may be a solution to this problem, but thanks for the 1-shot tip, I will try it and see if maybe sealing it will help.
So aside from One Shot paint what are cheaper ones? I’m interested in learning so I would like to get cheaper paint and then slowly get a few One Shots
I'm not sure entirely... I've only ever used the 1SHOT. it is a lettering enamel if that helps at all... wish I could help more.. I hesitate to reccomend anything that I have never personally used... hope you understand...😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Hi. I have a issue when painting letters and stripes on my bike. Despite having cleaned surface and brush, it leaves residue like tiny small bubble style spots and marks like sand dots. Sorry kind of trying to explain..lol what can I do different or where did I make a mistake and can improve..Thanks
Hmmmm..... 🤔 hard to say without being there.... 🤓 my first thought is that if the surface and brush are clean.... how about the paint?🤔😁 Possibly may have some dried up chunks that are giving you trouble... you can strain with a fine filter to remove any such annoyances! 😁👍 my second thought is that you may have developed some static charge when cleaning the surface!.. for this you can actually use an old dryer sheet and gently wipe down the surface. Be sure to use a "used" sheet, as a new one can leave residue behind! 😁 I hope this helps you out a bit Sista!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
@@BloodShotAirbrushing Thanks a lot. Will figure it out...second paint job turned out much better. Another question, can I use 1Shot on Plastic, and if so do I do the same prep work as with the metal? Thanks for your help appreciate...
🤔hmmmmm..... well.. I am "a" man.... didn't know I was "the" man.... 😉😁 Thanks for the amazing compliment my friend!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻
Hi there! Awesome video, thanks for posting this. I have a few questions, and I would be very happy if you're willing to answer. After cleaning the object, do we have to sand it before applying the paint? My second question is, do we need to apply clear coats after the lettering done? Thank you in advance! Greetings from Indonesia, cheers!
Thanks my friend! Glad you enjoy the show!! 😁 So this paint is labeled as a permanent paint. It says you can apply it to most surfaces without scuffing and clearing... Now I prefer to sand, clean then do the lettering. And finally have it cleared over top. This is the most durable finish I've found!! Otherwise, I recommend the clients to wax over top on a regular basis. The wax will act as a protective coating for a bit, then will need to be reapplied! 👍 I hope this answers your questions my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Nice work!! Do you add hardener? Or just straight up? Thanks! Just getting started and frustrated with how long between coats to avoid dragging my hand through tacky paint .. so far red is over 24 hours and not dry
Your local humidity may be an issue for drying times. You can try using a dehumidifier in your spray area. But a harder is almost always recommend! Hope this helps!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Definitely lettering. Airbrushing can be challenging, lettering and pinstriping can be very relaxing I find! 😊 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I'm honestly not sure the brand... 🤔😁but if you go to your local paint supplier. I'm sure they can point you in the right direction!😁 Hope this helps!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Hmmmmm..... 🤔😁 well I do know that they took out all of the lead in their paints years ago... 🤓 but having it on or close to the skin for prolonged periods... 🤔 I'm no doctor... but I definitely can't reccomend it for that type of application. 🤓 I think there are smarter people out there that can better answer this question... I wish I could be more help.. 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
It's safe. I reckon that the type of metal may affect how well the enamel will adhere to the surface....but One Shot is the gold standard. After completely setting up for 24-48 hours One Shot doesn't want to go anywhere. I practice on glass and it's hard to get off with a sharp razor blade after a day or two so I imagine it would be just as effective on copper, tin, pewter or whatever. No worries about health concerns. Most of my clothes are covered in the stuff. Sincerely, Doctor Feelgood M.D.

Did you make it? I'm making one for mine, when I saw yours I thought I'll finish mine like yours. Thanks. You do awesome work.
To be honest my friend!! I'm not sure the chemical make up of this particular powder ...🤓 I ordered it in as a 1SHOT flattening agent. It came with no label.... no instructions... just a bag of white powder through the mail.. 🤔 now that I think about it.....😬 maybe that wasn't my wisest purchase... lmao!! But seriously, all I know is that it works. I'm sure if I put some effort in... I could find out.... but I'm lazy... or just to busy.... which ever sounds better... 🤪 Any ways...

Why don't you use a salt/pepper shaker for the powder? It's won't make a mess, no 3 bags are needed, and it's always there by your hand. Just a good advice. Cool video! Greetings!
That's Brilliant Soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you!! 😉👍 I'll definitely have to try that one!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻
Flattening powder. Yeah right lol. My apartment was broken into and I had a bag of malic acid powder stolen along with many other things. Malic acid a white powder and is the super sour stuff on the outside of the really, really sour hard candies. I REALLY hope those bastards indulged heavily when they got home with my stuff. Awesome lettering. You have skills on top of skills man.
G1 Smokescreen I screwed up my first dozen pieces and Still do from time to time!! This is why I keep the little tool close by to clean up any hick-ups!! Never stop learning and pushing yourself!! Maximum growth!! Lol thanks for the support!! Cheers!!
@@monkey_ish4117 lol, depends on availability I suppose ..🤔😁😉 but this is actually a "flattening powder" specifically for the 1SHOT lettering enamels. And it's not cheap.... that's why I'm trying so hard not to waste it.... lmao!!🤣😂🤣
Carry on the tradition. Great vid. Suggest putting flattening powder in a salt shaker. Should be cleaner to use mixing. Also replace plastic bags with glass jars. I wonder if Von Ander knew Von Dutch? The age would be close.
Thanks for the helpful tips my friend!! I'm always happy to learn new things!! 😉😁👍 Von Anders has been all over! He has met a few of the greats!! Von Dutch included!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!!🍻
A salt shaker sounds like a good option. I was thinking of a ketchup squeeze bottle from the diner, or even a cleaned out Elmer's glue bottle. I have used those for decades to blow dust off my camera lenses, and negatives when printing in the darkroom. Yeah, some of us still do that! Old school analog is a good thing, whether it is photo or painting. So many would opt for some CNC cut vinyl without giving it a second thought, and it would look like crap. Support your local artist! (Especially when she/he uses the proper hand!)
Since I already commented --palleting is important too. Flip it back and forth to get it set up for a line. Roth squeezed paint between his fingers to set the brush . This method is way too messy for me . Try a line off to the side to check brush.
I'll actually fold the newsprint and squeeze the brush between the print, no messy fingers bro!! Thanks again for the feedback and support!! Big Cheers for the BloodShot Studio!
Killer job dude!! I love when I can watch a video of pinstriping to get stoked to paint. Nice little tip I learned to prevent the skinning from happening to the paint, you open the fresh can, pop a nut or marble in it and seal it again, then poke a hole at the top and put a screw into it. When you pour a couple times the paint will dry around the screw to seal it. And the marble makes for a nice permanent mixer lol. Keep it up the killer work!!!

Ever since they changed the formula it's nowhere near as durable as it used to be. Ten years ago you could use it straight from the can and it would be there damn near forever but not anymore. HOK is the same way. Gotta love environmental regulations.
Austin Knowlton I totally hear ya!! Mind ya... led poisoning kinda sucks I've heard!🤔😉 thanks for the solid advice my friend!! Greatly appreciated by me and those who read this!! 🤘😎🤘
This might be the best tutorial video I've seen. Great job!
Thanks broski! Your feedback is greatly appreciated!! 😁👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Yep the drop shadowing makes a huge difference no doubt Thanks for sharing. And have a Merry Christmas best wishes to you and your family and have a happy and healthy New Year
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts Bro!! MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and yours!! Cheers And Much Love!!
it's funny, l watched the Bumblebeast video, and the Wolf helmet and thought this guy has a signwriting background. Old GOOD habits die hard brother.
l was lucky enough to teach some primary school kids the basic idea of signwriting using water based paints, man the look on there faces when they picked up a brush and had a go was simply brilliant, it's a great release for the brain to be creative. What l saw with those kids will never leave me, it was truly awesome.
Keep up the great work, love your style.
have a great Christmas
Cheers Paul
Ah man!!! I totally hear ya!! Ive done a few courses at a lower income school and the Kids are what make it a lesson for me, rater then them!! If we could all be so unbiased towards ourselves and be more willing to try new things I'm sure we would all amaze ourselves!! Just like those kids you gave that experience to!! Love it!! Thanks for sharing!!, And a Very Merry Christmas to you and yours!! Here's to teaching the next generation!!! Cheers!!

Well done. Do recommend this on etching glass?
Yes, you can use the 1SHOT paint on etched glass. I've even used it on unetched glass for inside the home with success. 😁👍 Hope this helps my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Nice work...would love more videos on pinstripping and lettering...maybe a series of tutorials as well :D
It's on the list my friend!! 😁😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I like to put a tapered screw in the top of the lid in the center of the one shot cans, the paint never skins over , last forever, just put the screw back in right after you dump the paint out u need. also try steve kafkas "smooth stroke" additive
Thanks broski!! All great Intel soldier!! I've also heard of simply shaking the can so the paint seals around the lip reducing the skin over affect!😁 The BloodShot ARMY salutes you my friend!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers from the BloodShot Studio!!
Well done bro....I'm about to do a bunch of crazy art on my van this summer...a couple questions --- what type paints are you using and where can I stock up? is there a specific make of brush? thanx man & sTaY gRooVy :)~~~
"lefties rule" :)~~~
Thanks broski!!😁 Left for life!! 😉 so the paint I'm using here is called 1SHOT lettering enamel. I'm not sure where you are, but I can buy it at the local sign supply store. Brushes also. The brushes are specifically designed for this paint. The hold a lot of paint so you can pull long lines. Mack brushes are probably the best known, I loled Kafka brushes for scroll work and fine lines. My favorite brush is the Xcaliber .... and the come in all shapes and sizes. 😁 I hope this helps you out a bit!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Looks supper sharp bud nice work
Cheers!! Thanks for the Support!!
So first of all ur fn awesome! Got a question if u get time to answer. Where did u get ur brush box and are they still available? \ll/ rock on man
I've always got time for my soldiers!!🤘😎 But.... 🤔 unfortunately,....
I found it at a thrift shop....
..
. If memory serves me correctly...🤔😁 I do believe they were for storing film slides... then I slapped some velcro inside to hold my brushes... hope this helps on some level.... lol 😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Crazy cool 😎 pin strip paint brushes! & lettering 👍🏻
Thanks Bro!! Cheers!!
Hi Ryan, I have just watched this video for the second time and I know that you like feedback. I opened a tin of paint for a motorbike last week and the paint was 8 years old, there was no skin and the tin was half full, just a quick stir and I was on my way. The trick was to shake the tin after I used it and it seals the lid, thus reducing any air, which makes skin in the tin. Take Care Bro !!!!!!!
Douglas Taylor brilliant broski!! So simple yet I've never heard of it before!! Love it!!😁 Thanks for the amazing Intel soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you my friend!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!

I would love to do lettering but my hands are to shakey not steady on the hands now so but that was awesome work love watching you do your thing
The pinstripe brushes actually act as a bit if a rutter, allowing the long bristles to compensate for the shakes! You should give it a try!😁👍 I was taught by a young buck of the ripe ol age of 64! Lol he is still laying down the occasional lines!! 😁 I hope this inspires you my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
@@BloodShotAirbrushing cool I will give it a try once I get this honda done the painting on it is next. I am hoping with in the next month or in october

Hey dude, just a update. Solved problem with water in the hose. Just bought a new and much better air compressor! Still working on thinning paint. I have over a 100 colors of acrylic paint that I use for my ceramic things and don't want to buy new ones. Again thank u for answering my questions and for ur advice. I think ur idea for fantastic is fantastic but bc of the virus it can't be found. LOL! Still putting my 20 hours in I WILL get to where I want to go. Thanks again! Debbie
Glad to hear it sister!! Keep honing those Skills and keep slinging that paint!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Nice work!

One thing I definitely can't do. I don't have steady hands and patience. Learnt a lot from this though thanks Ryan
Practice, practice .... practice!! You're in the BloodShot ARMY now son!! And WE NEVER SAY DIE, WE NEVER GIVE UP!! X) Put in the first 20 hours and I'm sure you'll be amazed at how far you've come!! Cheers & Much Love!!
I would love to hear your thoughts on spray hoods.
I actually use an AC unit to cycle the air in my Studio, but Ive seen House hold oven range hood fans used and exhausted through windows.. You can get professional grade up draft or down draft booths of a variety of set ups.. But if your only spraying the occasional rc.. A oven hood fan should do the trick! Hope this helps! Cheers!
Rad job, love your videos!!!!!!!
Thanks broski!! Glad to hear you dig the show Daddy-0!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hi . i just started using one shot. Do you have to use a respirator when hand lettering or is that just for spray painting. I didn't see you using a mask. Maybe I missed it.
No respirator needed. You can if you like. I definitely recommend a well ventilated area. The paints and thinners/cleaners can stink.... hope this helps you out sista!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
For new guys every tutorial is exciting lol .
Did you seal it with a clear or is it safe to leave as is?
Thanks for the amazing support my friend!! And when working with one shot, you can go either way... I didn't clear this one. So the Client will have to wax it religiously to keep it protected.
Otherwise, I do prefer to wetsand the piece, paint the 1SHOT and then clear for a permanent seal! And don't forget to use hardener if you're planning on no clears. Hope this helps you out broski!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
@@BloodShotAirbrushing no problem 👍 you're the only one that makes it clear and fun at the same time lol 🤟
Oh this is so cool - I had no idea Flattening powder existed! FYI - 1-Shot makes "Clear Flattening Paste 4329500" in a 32oz can. It works well. Don't know how expensive the powder is, but the Paste is like $35. I have a sneaky suspicion that the powder can get you even more flat than the paste because it looks like the paste has more paint additives, etc. to make it a liquid.
I'm glad to be of service my friend!! Knowledge is ment yo be shared!! And would you believe that I've never heard of flattening paste!! 😃 so I learned something as well!! 😁👍 Thanks for the Intel soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you!!🤘😎
I was given over 30 cans of bran new 1 shot paint that was never opened but it was stored in a building that wasn’t heated and I’m in Eastern Canada so it gets well below freezing. Do you think the paint is still good or would it be garbage? Thanks for the videos brother.
Only way to tell broski, is to open one and try using it. wait and see how it sets up and dries. Hope this helps, let me know how it goes!! Cheers!!
is that lettering a specific font style? if so, what is it called? nice work
Been a while since I did this. I'm sure I got it from dafont.com if that helps... Thanks for the kind words!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻

BloodShot Airbrushing hahaha wow! Sometime things are too simple that you might think :) keep it up like what you do!
@@Royal-Venom very true my friend!! Thanks for your feedback and support!!🤘😎
What was the powder you added into the 1-shot to make it a matte finish?
I really enjoy your airbrush videos.
Thank you for your time!
As far as I know, its called a 1SHOT flattening powder, I ordered it online so long ago.. I'm sorry, it's not the best answer I know... but Google may be able to help ya out from there!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hey thank you soo much for this video! I’m trying to paint a bare metal sign (making a custom garage sign) for the first time and was considering using one shot for the lettering portion but do you think I could use rustoleum spray paint for the base? Not sure what else I could use..
When tackling a new project or using a new product. I always recommend doing a test panel to finish. This way you'll see for your self if its will work or not. As its a process I've personally never done... I hesitate to make any recommendations.. hope this helps a bit my friend!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
I'm with you bro watching it all
wesley cecil love ta have you as a soldier in the BloodShot ARMY!! Cheers!
What was the number in the brush you used to shadow and was it a liner or a script liner?
# 0/5 Kafka liner! 😁👌 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Aaron Tyrrell the shadow was done with a 5/0 Kafka Scriptliner.
Bro, I know this is a old video of yours but I was watching it and you said I can’t say the C word so you described it as thick human hair and I was like huh? And kept thinking about it and then it hit me and I started dying laughing I just had to tell you. Hilarious bro. Keep it up.

Bloodshot airbrushing where do u buy the power at is it directly from one shot or at ant paint shop?
I got it online a while back... its flattening powder for lettering enamels. Google that and you should find what you're looking for! Hope this helps!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Well quarantine has had me furloughed from work so I've bought a starter kit and cant wait to do some lettering. Love the vid mannnn answered so many questions. Is the fender for your own bike?
Thanks broski! Im glad to be able to help ya out along your journey! And to answer your question, this fender was done for a client. 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Maybe I missed something but what kinds of paint do you need? A specific type of latex, acrylic, etc?
For this type of job, 1SHOT lettering enamel is reccomended! Hope this helps you out my friend!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
your videos are great, learned a bunch of lil tidbits/tricks already. question brah, i have ran into a problem when laying leaf, where the leaf sticks to parts of painted/clear areas (with no size being there) and had a disaster to the point where i carefully sanded off size and leafing to start fresh...? am i pressing to hard while laying the leaf? also my leafing looks like lil fractures (small tares it looks to me) when i engine turn em? did i miss my window? or am i pre ejaculating lol. thanks in advance!
Brandie Fox I like to use a makeup brush for applying "blush"
It's a great way to sweep away any access leaf once your size is dried. Also you shouldn't need do give it access pressure. Just rub down gently with your fingertips (that's what she said)😀😆🤣😉 Hard to say exactly the cause though. As for engine turning, I like to use a slow dry size for more brilliant golds. This also leaves a nice window for the engine turning. If you wait till the size is dry. Then you may have to apply more pressure in the turning process and risk tearing and scratching the leaf. I'll try to tackle the turning within an hours of the first piece of leave being applied. I hope this answers your questions broski!!😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!🤘
Do you know of any paints other than alcohol inks that would be suitable for glass, and able to go through my brush?
Justin Sylvester glass is a tricky one... the only thing I've ever used that had any staying power is the 1SHOT paints... and even they will easily scratch... I try to stay away from painting glass. If it's etched... almost any paint will bind to the etched part... hope this helps! Cheers!
It helped, though discouragingly so...I was really hoping in that vast paint knowledge, there may be a solution to this problem, but thanks for the 1-shot tip, I will try it and see if maybe sealing it will help.
So aside from One Shot paint what are cheaper ones? I’m interested in learning so I would like to get cheaper paint and then slowly get a few One Shots
I'm not sure entirely... I've only ever used the 1SHOT. it is a lettering enamel if that helps at all... wish I could help more.. I hesitate to reccomend anything that I have never personally used... hope you understand...😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Very Cool Bro!, I really enjoyed.

Hi. I have a issue when painting letters and stripes on my bike. Despite having cleaned surface and brush, it leaves residue like tiny small bubble style spots and marks like sand dots. Sorry kind of trying to explain..lol what can I do different or where did I make a mistake and can improve..Thanks
Hmmmm..... 🤔 hard to say without being there.... 🤓 my first thought is that if the surface and brush are clean.... how about the paint?🤔😁 Possibly may have some dried up chunks that are giving you trouble... you can strain with a fine filter to remove any such annoyances! 😁👍 my second thought is that you may have developed some static charge when cleaning the surface!.. for this you can actually use an old dryer sheet and gently wipe down the surface. Be sure to use a "used" sheet, as a new one can leave residue behind! 😁 I hope this helps you out a bit Sista!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
@@BloodShotAirbrushing Thanks a lot. Will figure it out...second paint job turned out much better. Another question, can I use 1Shot on Plastic, and if so do I do the same prep work as with the metal? Thanks for your help appreciate...
Dude you are the man
🤔hmmmmm..... well.. I am "a" man.... didn't know I was "the" man.... 😉😁 Thanks for the amazing compliment my friend!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻
Hi there! Awesome video, thanks for posting this. I have a few questions, and I would be very happy if you're willing to answer. After cleaning the object, do we have to sand it before applying the paint? My second question is, do we need to apply clear coats after the lettering done?
Thank you in advance! Greetings from Indonesia, cheers!
Thanks my friend! Glad you enjoy the show!! 😁 So this paint is labeled as a permanent paint. It says you can apply it to most surfaces without scuffing and clearing... Now I prefer to sand, clean then do the lettering. And finally have it cleared over top. This is the most durable finish I've found!! Otherwise, I recommend the clients to wax over top on a regular basis. The wax will act as a protective coating for a bit, then will need to be reapplied! 👍 I hope this answers your questions my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Nice work!! Do you add hardener? Or just straight up? Thanks! Just getting started and frustrated with how long between coats to avoid dragging my hand through tacky paint .. so far red is over 24 hours and not dry
Your local humidity may be an issue for drying times. You can try using a dehumidifier in your spray area. But a harder is almost always recommend! Hope this helps!! 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
what do you find easier, airbrushing or lettering?
Definitely lettering. Airbrushing can be challenging, lettering and pinstriping can be very relaxing I find! 😊
Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
If you do use a respirator can I get the name and brand please ? 😊 thanks!
I'm honestly not sure the brand... 🤔😁but if you go to your local paint supplier. I'm sure they can point you in the right direction!😁 Hope this helps!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Is the enamel safe for if I use the paint to color my metal for jewelry?
Hmmmmm..... 🤔😁 well I do know that they took out all of the lead in their paints years ago... 🤓 but having it on or close to the skin for prolonged periods... 🤔 I'm no doctor... but I definitely can't reccomend it for that type of application. 🤓 I think there are smarter people out there that can better answer this question... I wish I could be more help.. 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
It's safe. I reckon that the type of metal may affect how well the enamel will adhere to the surface....but One Shot is the gold standard. After completely setting up for 24-48 hours One Shot doesn't want to go anywhere. I practice on glass and it's hard to get off with a sharp razor blade after a day or two so I imagine it would be just as effective on copper, tin, pewter or whatever. No worries about health concerns. Most of my clothes are covered in the stuff. Sincerely, Doctor Feelgood M.D.

is that matting powder calcium carbonate? i have used calcium carbonate in other paints to create a pastel look. and to make gesso.
To be honest my friend!! I'm not sure the chemical make up of this particular powder ...🤓 I ordered it in as a 1SHOT flattening agent. It came with no label.... no instructions... just a bag of white powder through the mail.. 🤔 now that I think about it.....😬 maybe that wasn't my wisest purchase... lmao!!

A salt shaker sounds like a good option. I was thinking of a ketchup squeeze bottle from the diner, or even a cleaned out Elmer's glue bottle. I have used those for decades to blow dust off my camera lenses, and negatives when printing in the darkroom. Yeah, some of us still do that! Old school analog is a good thing, whether it is photo or painting. So many would opt for some CNC cut vinyl without giving it a second thought, and it would look like crap. Support your local artist! (Especially when she/he uses the proper hand!)
Since I already commented --palleting is important too. Flip it back and forth to get it set up for a line. Roth squeezed paint between his fingers to set the brush . This method is way too messy for me . Try a line off to the side to check brush.
I'll actually fold the newsprint and squeeze the brush between the print, no messy fingers bro!! Thanks again for the feedback and support!! Big Cheers for the BloodShot Studio!
