So good my friend. What’s awesome about being thorough with the spray.bike paint steps is it makes it super awesome and durable but if you’re hasty it is still super good.
Old shovel would be proud
“Papa Spray.Bike” I called him in some dialogue I cut from this vlog hahaha
Lol late on this one after the west coast road trip. Awesome job, I’m typically hasty and lazy, which is why I love spray.bike..
If I painted as much as you do, I’d be doing the same thing haha
Damn the build up towards the gt then completely saying its for something else got me 😂🤣🤣
lol i might play that trick a couple more times
Love it! Want to see a full build like this with paint and all
I think we will see this sooner than later!
The Tremclad advert in the middle of the video was a nice touch. Great work Al Goreithm!
hahaha jeez google knows how to put two and two together
The paper trick just sold me on it... I had the same reservations with the gritty texture.
it works pretty good! supper optimistic about the shine that'll come after polishing on monday
Sprayed my forks and cranks with this stuff and its lasted well so far.
I just finished the paint job on my bike, and I have these tips for anyone who's thinking of using Rustoleum paint:
#1 Choose paint within the same product line, for instance Stops Rust Clean Metal Primer, Stops Rust color coat and Stops Rust Crystal Clear Enamel.
#2 Don't use Rusty Metal Primer over steel that isn't rusted, or the paint won't dry properly.
#3 Rustoleum single stage paint doesn't have a hardener in it, so you don't need to sand between coats, even if the paint has been drying for days or weeks. If you do sand, you have to wait for 48 hours to topcoat or clearcoat, otherwise your paint will react with the solvents you released by sanding, and the paint will wrinkle.
It's kinda easy to mess up Rustoleum, as I unfortunately found out, but in the end I got a good result and the paint is very durable. 😁👍
Also give it a good week to cure before you do anything with it.
@@rochat Definitely. Rustoleum is good durable paint, but it takes a long time to dry.
I've been happy with mine for a relatively low cost fun project. I did ok prep and think it looked great, but wasn't going for the gloss finish. I have a few chips in the dropouts but unlike other rattle can jobs I've done it hasn't spread and chipped away yet. About 1000 mostly winter miles without really being thrown around or slammed into racks, etc. I have a little chip from here I always sit on the top tube. I'll definitely consider this on all my cheapish projects. I did mediocre prep work and painted it in my bathtub and was happy with it .
Hokey smokes! I think you're the first Tuber I've seen use this stuff properly! Everyone else just sprays it on and complains about the orange peel. Great job.
Also, thanks for changing the fork on the GT; the old one hurt my eyes. :-)
Nice Job. Any time you can save an old frame is a good day.
Nice to see someone follow the instructions and wipe the color down. Going to do my Frame the next days and hoping to get just a nice finish as you did! As allways, the right content at the right time! Appreciate ist!
its the prep work! you'll do great
I've been looking forward to seeing this frame painted. Can't wait to see the complete rebuild 👍
Hope we see the redwood repaint soon 🤞
As a person who's obsessed with aerosols i think that spray.bike paint is just overpriced graffiti spray paint such as molotow premium, flame or montana, i cant say for sure because i haven't tried it but if you wanna try painting the gtmx id suggest trying some paint from your local graffiti shop
I'm pretty certain its Montana Gold, if you look at the safety data sheets they are identical, they are least using the same formula, cans, nozzles etc.
I never heard of the parchment polish before. Done the sanding out runs thing. Suspect more clear coat afterwards would save some fussy polish work. Results look really good!
Man! Super stoked on this can’t wait to see this in person 😁
oh you just wait until after monday!
I actually quite liked the rust patina on the frame lol. Good job on the paint job tho 👌🏽
the patina is cool, but im super happy to have given it a new shine!
"Cut and buff" that thing!
Waited for this! Just finished my copper/black frame paint job. I really like the copper with the rough surface which is why I didn’t dobit
it'll take me a few paint jobs to warm up to a textured/rough finish, but excited to do more!
I like the rough matte look.....so my question is....do I need to use a "clear matte finishing" top coat? Or is the base colored matte coat sufficient?
@@jamesalexanderanania use a matte clear coat. It won’t change the texture
And now you understand "as exciting as watching paint dry..." :)
This is crazy, I just did my new fixie/commuter bike with spray.bike two weeks ago. Turned out awesome actually, we will see how it holds up.
My tips:
-Just like any paint, prep work is key. I used their metal primer on bare aluminum after a light sand to rough it up.
-Most of their solid colors require you to spray super close to the frame. It seems weird at first, but do it. Works way better, no worry of drips. This stuff will dry in mid air if you spray too far away, which leads to that gritty texture.
-The polishing with wax paper after solid colors is legit. Doesn't make a massive difference, but helps a little with rough spots, especially when adding other layers or graphics on top.
-If you have any really bad rough spots, let it cure for a few hours and then lightly wet sand with a super high grit (1500-2000). Add a small touch up spray of paint in that spot if necessary.
-Their clear coats and stuff like the metal flake and pocket clears are more like normal spray paint. Spray them from farther away, because they can drip. Do a few coats, with a few hours in between to let each coat harden.
-I wasn't super happy with how the gloss came out, wasn't shiny and glossy enough, although it was decently smooth.
-I ended up putting that 3M clear protective tape on a bunch of the tubes to help with durability, and it also made the gloss look GORGEOUS. Seriously. I ended up adding that tape to a bunch of the other tubes I wasn't planning on because it looks so good. Really brings out the metal flake too. Looks super wet paint glossy now.
-I'm just finishing up the bike and might make a little video showing it off or post it on reddit or something. The paint was worth the effort,
Well written!
@@Spindatt Thanks! I put it up on Reddit if anyone is interested www.reddit.com/r/xbiking/comments/niv2r2/finished_my_new_fixie_commutergravel_bike_painted/
The only real problem I've had with mine were a couple spots I put electrical tape on that pulled off paint when I removed it. I waited a couple days but maybe it wasn't long enough because I did tape to protect from the frame bag and nothing happened.
Zincspray + Clear coat ❤
I used Montana Gold cans. They have a wider range of colors and are a little cheaper than Spray.bike. I found the Montana Gold clearcoat, while super glossy, doesn’t get the hardness right like automotive paints would. Probably using a 2k hardener coat on my next project.
Awesome...thanks for the info! Enjoyes the video
I've been waiting for the Paddywagon.
Love that t-shirt 😊
Paint runs happen if you are too im-pa-tient (I know because that's me)! Same with the clear coat: it takes up to a full week to completely cure and harden but if you give it that extra time it miraculously polish itself. Just like my dad told me: Patience! Just be patient!
Congrats on reaching 35k Eric ;)
thanks! 50k is what i've got my eyes on
i would like do the same to my bike
but i live in a flat
and anyway, good work, for what i know about it most of the job is done from a good primer, i have only experience with painting and make sense actually.
there is a scottish guy here on youtube that use the same paint and the results are pretty nice
Love that title haha
Like a good suit paint makes all the difference.
yes! also, i need another excuse to wear a suit in a video
Literally just did this to a vintage no name MTB that I’m converting to a commuter.
nice and smooth?
looks like the cursed blue audi color "nogaro blue"
i wonder how much of a texture is about aplaying fin coats and not letting droplets merge together on the surface. ?
Whahoo! My project was so fun to play with, it’s fine just fine my --Steamroller is better for it
Yes, it’s the paper rub that makes the difference. But then again, since glossy and matte clears from spraybike are both virtually regular paints it sort of questions the whole concept. I did it once and was satisfied, but used regular spray colors since.
I agree, the clear was extremely similar to other clears I’ve used in the past. Caught me off guard because the primer and paint was so not-fussy I expected the same from the clear. Resulted in those embarrassing runs and drips
@@Spindatt i think it’s a great product for fast and creative designs... but if you go all the way from a clean frame with multiple sanding passes the advantage is small. They have great colors though. My Celeste mint really is outstanding. But one should not expect to have a much easier way to get a „perfect“ painted bike.
@@Spindatt did you guys took notice that the instructions pointed to like double the distance between the can and the frame for the clear coat?
hey bro, do you think I would be able to spray my all black bike without taking it apart ? Wanted a fresh black to cover the scratches.
Like watching paint dry🤪
I've been watching for ages but am never going to call sorry
you kind of just did though
You should check out the etoe channel, he does some amazing bike painting and he has some tutorials on how to get a pro finish using cans
heading over there now!
The wet sand and polish is going to make all the difference. Can't wait to show it
Where can you buy Spray.Bike products in Canada?
Always thought the same about spray.bike, always looks like it’s quite thick when applied. I do like the colour though 🚲
The polish finish is going to be awesome
Looking forward too see the final finish😎🚲
Hey, what's that green bike under your bench... project?
If you want Subaru blue, I would've stuck with automotive paint to get an almost exact match.
Yes I agree, but finding it in stores was hard and going into auto paint stores for custom cans in awkward these days.
@@Spindatt I just saw the new video. It looks amazing!
bababooey
I thought I spotted one of those bugs on your finished product but it just was a spot on my phone screen. Nice job!!
Im gonna try that paint you used. I'm going to paint a frame, then try hydro dipping over the base color for the 1st time. Ive grown tired of the bare aluminum on my 'cross frame.
you shoulda woulda coulda sanded the primer for less orange peel
Did the powder cause any kind of mess on the ground for you?
What's the name of the color? I'm considering doing Bayswater, but that looks lighter
what is the big deal about this paint? is there something special about spray.bike?
Its "Graffiti Paint" probably rebranded Montana Gold. Graff paint is highly pigmented, low solvent and low pressure. The advantage is that its very easy to work with, dry's very quickly (seconds in the right conditions), requires fewer coats with little to no prep between them, doesn't run easy, is "high build" so it covers imperfections like scratches, and basically just eliminates all the annoying and time consuming things about painting with normal rattle cans.
The disadvantages are it can look "thick", feels rough, almost always has at least some "orange peel" or wave effect on close inspection, its hard to get a glossy finish and even the matte finish isn't great when compared to automotive matte paints (looks fine in isolation though).
When it comes to scratches and chips its about the same as any good rattle can paint, nothing special despite the claims.
If you are good with standard rattle cans and happy to take your time then there is little point in using them IMO, If you want to prep and paint a frame in a day and are happy to live with a less than stellar finish, go for it.
TLDR: Really easy to use with average results, good for people who are lazy and/or suck at painting with normal rattle cans.
@@chris1275cc wow, thanks for the detailed explanation! I'm pretty good with the paint cans so i'll stick with rustoleum or similar.
@@rickc2222 Yeah you will likely be happier with the result, although in the right color (olives, greens, browns, military colors etc.) The flat mottled finish really works well.
love konas. looking for one for cheap
i dunno if you'll find a cheap one!
@@Spindatt i grabbed my rockhopper for $60 (and its not stolen) so i think anythings possible🤷🏽♂️
When I did my last paint job I had the same issue with bugs, like literally would stop to shake and turn my head back. Spiderwebs would just have popped up right there!
Is the clear a urethane? If the paint is an enamel it's not going to be hard enough to stand up to chips and shit like you mentioned. I used Urethane automotive paint from TCP Global and 3 coats clear automotive urethane, then I sanded with 2000, 2500, and 3000 grit wet sand paper. Then I used automotive cutting polish and then a finer polish and then a wax. I ended up with a deep shine finish that looks like glass. I have never seen a professional looking or durable paint job from a rattle can.
Their clear is Acrylic, but I don’t know what that means haha
Going back decades and rattle can paint job I’ve ever tried on a bike has had very oh-hum results. Finish is Ok but the paint is never durable like a factory finish.
I’m not attempting a custom bike paint job again unless I can get the frame professionally powder coated.
Tu as une bonne tête de Gland mec!!!
Should have done a rust fade 😀
got a used green paddy wagon for 400$ when i thought i F*ed up my bb on a precursa(it was saveable thou!). still best 400$ iv used so far, just need a rack for that thing(any tips?)
i'd probably just get a cheap evo rack i'd say
Jfc Eric use some of your TH-cam money to buy a respirator I’m sure you can write it off
I was totally thinking this was going to turn into a porno at 2:30. It must be the stache.
thats a different cut
Was that a green Bianchi bike. Is it yours?
You should have given your pal graffiti look paint job!
If old shovel hasn't sold me on the spray.bike paint you have. Now wheres that 80s technium mtb I have laying around🤔
As good as Old Shovel
Doesn’t run, yeah right lol
Wee3ee
So you like White Lies?
Jesus, video would be half as long if you stopped like, saying "like".
Sorry, can I apologise. Shouldn't have been so rude.
Meh... it takes a little getting used to.
truth, it'll get ya
FYI Spray.bike paint is basically just graffiti paint. Montana Gold (or even Black if you are good with rattle cans) is cheaper, comes in a wider range of colours and finishes and IMO better.
Hey, nice work. Would you recommend the primer? Spray.Bike writes on the internet, that the color covers everything.
Thank you
