- 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.
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.
That Spraymax 2k stuff is AMAZING. Yes you have to cover up seriously but it builds REALLY easily! Totally worth $20 a can.
Beautiful. Now i know how I am going to paint my explorer bass
you know Brad you are actually over explaining but it always helps us. So keep it up😘😘😘
Pink taco kills me too
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.
Looking good Brad
A sifter or a salt or pepper shaker works great too
You can also combine the different glitters in a single process.
@@antoniop1968 possibly put the black glitter down first, couple coats of clear, then go with the other colors...?
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.
Thats was great, just refurbished a BC Rich warlock, my first rebuild and I’m still learning to play to
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...
In case anyone was curious. The banger song is Get Back In The Game by Forslund Svensson.
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
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.
Beautiful result here; thx for the info!!
Thank you
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.
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!
Fab! Thank you!
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 😉
I'm impressed Brad ! This is art. Nailed it. Respect.
Thank you sir.
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.
Might attempt this on my motorbike fairings
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...
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 TH-cam. Would love to see how it turned out.
Way cool! Favorite so far! Even the music 🎶
Thank you
Oh man I just got my guitar kit and this is the perfect colors to go with.
Excellent
So sick. Love the color and sparkle.
Gave me a great idea on how I want to do my panels for my 04 impala appreciate the blessings
Thanks for the idea Brad. I'm not a big sparkle fan but this looks really cool! Thanks for sharing my friend!
Cheers Wallace.
That is looking different and keep it with many more different colours of sparkle on any parts cheers
Very Nice thanks.
Thanks for the tip, I can’t wait to use this technique
superb
Going to do this to my race car. Thank you
That sounds like a fun project
This is your best finish ever. Great job!
I’m glad you like it!
PRETTY COOL I HAVE A VITAGE TRIKE SEAT MADE OF FIBERGLASS MUD BUG MIGHT WORK GET IT WET ENOUGH TO THROW SPARKLE ON TOP
I used this technique on my rims... gold base with gold and white glitter... came out amazing!!! My rims look dipped in 24kt gold!!!
Sounds badass
Looks good
Thanks
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.
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.
that's hella cool
Thanks
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.
Whoaaaa awesome only behind? Some video when you play it!
That's radical never saw your Amazon link
I think I'm going to give this a try in a much different way. I'll start out the way you did, with a flat black primer, then a coat of clear as you did, and then add only the black glitter. I'll then follow up with another coat of clear and another layer of glitter, and repeat 2, 3 or 4 times with a different color each time. This will give a lot of depth for a bar top. Instead of finishing with more clear spray paint, I'll finish with a crystal clear 2 part epoxy that is designed for bar top applications.
Should be cool. You’ll need the epoxy because the rest will be so thick it will be difficult for it to harden properly.
Remarkable job bro. I'm redoing my bike. I'm going to do it blue metallic paint with silver and green sparkle in it. I can't wait to do it this end of bike riding season. I take pictures and send them yo you for sure.
Cheers Kev
this was a very informative video. excellent job man. thank you
Thanks Patrick
Thank u
Great tutorial as always! Thanks for your great work!
Thanks for watching.
helllooooooo hottie! great bonus to watch on your videos! i am going to watch all of them now lol
Lol, " pink taco"! Chemists have a sense of humor after all. Who knew?! Almost as funny as the old 1970s bumper stickers; ' Save a tree, eat a beaver." Heh.
Hahaha nice.
Came out great. Although not my personal style. It reminds me of a 1970's motorcycle helmet.
Wow!! This is siiiick!! Great job!
Thank you
Nice. Would like to see after clear and polish.
Love this !!!
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.
Use a salt shaker to put the glitter on
Move over Salt Bae. Glitter Boo has arrived! 🤣
It would work so you want get to much in one spot
That would work if you were aiming for a more event less “nebula-like” finish haha.
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.
Nice vid. But correct me if I'm wrong if that's a 3m respirator your intake filters are backwards brotha. I've been wrong before but I believe the writing/text states mask side. Anywho guitar looks great man thanks for the video man
On my half mask they are writing in. On this one this is how they came and I haven’t bothered to change them yet haha. I’ll have to check
Colour me impressed!
Nice job mate.
Thanks Mark
Very nice,Brad..I was thinking,with extra fine sparkle,will it work if you put it in a salt or pepper shaker and sprinkle it on that way?...🤔
It should. You may have to widen the holes a bit, but there are other spice shakers with wider holes that would work too.
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.
Beautiful job.
Thank you.
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.
Your videos are so full of valuable information thank you.
Thanks for watching.
Pink taco dawg 🎉
The music in this video is the best I've heard in your videos. Who is this? Also this would look even more amazing with the color change paint.
It’s from Epidemic Sound. I’m not sure who the artist is.
Really cool!!!! You're great! I need to do this! Just subscribed!
Thank you Rocklyn
I would’ve added just a little white but it does look really amazing great job dude
Cool! Im gonna try this
Saw this and had to do it immediately LOL. Question for you Brad. I applied the extra fine sparkles a little heavy to have a really sparkling look. It’s heavy enough to feel the texture of the sparkles after a few coats of clear. I would like to get it as smooth as possible. In this video you recommended scuffing it after a few days and going on with a couple more coats. How would you go about polishing a sparkle finish and getting a thick enough coat to not feel the texture so much?
I don’t really mind the texture, but I don’t wanna have a glitter mess one day in my office LOL
Have a look at my video on how to build a thick clear coat.
I love the way any custom job looks once you apply the clear to it. Changes it up for the better big time!! Some bright white sprayed into a cup, stick your fingers in it and flick a little bit onto this after the glitter to make it look like some random stars would be awesome I think. But that's just my opinion, it looks bada$$ this way also!!
Thanks, I’m glad you like it.
I want to paint my car like this!! 👍
That sounds like quite the project haha.
@@BradAngove Im really considering doing it, I have an older car (78) that I don't drive that often, I'm in the beginning stages of painting it and I can't decide which way to go? I was going to do the whole car in satin black but lately I've seen a lot a cars getting around in flat black, I want to stand out a bit but I don't want to be a bright sparkling mass of metal.
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?😳
EXELLENT 👍🏼💯 Thank for the tip
I always learn something new. Thanks dude
Very cool effect. I would like to see it again after the polishing you mentioned.
I'd like to paint a guitar in a pearly white glitter color.
cant believe no one called you #SparkleBae yet. great job Brad!
Thanks Robbie.
Nebula Sparkles it is lovely I wanna buy one of these ✨
Did you ever do a follow up video on how the clear coat dried on the guitar body? Spray can paint does not use a hardener to dry cured and that was a lot of clear sprayed all on the same day. It was a nice looking job done in good timing but for people watching who will try the same paint job at home should should be advised that its best to apply half that amount in one session and allow 2-3 days to dry in a ventilated environment and as a bonus tip, give the clear coat a medium sanding with 800 or 600 grit wet sand paper (without sanding down to the glitter) before applying another session of clear coat to the guitar body. It will help have a more glass like reflection and the clear coat will dry harder and be less gummy from all the layers of paint. Someone mentioned in the comments that you tend to "over explain" lol man.... you can NEVER over explain when it comes to body and paint. The questions people will have are limitless and the things that can go wrong have no ending. Rock on! This is my first time seeing this channel so pardon me for not knowing more about you and your channel as far as this comment goes.
I have a number of videos on coats and timing and paint thickness etc. For this type of finish there isn’t really an opportunity to do less paint at once. You need a few coats and they need to be reasonably heavy. Ideally you do this one in a warm shop or you could have drying issues. I did a follow up video on this one where I polished it using jescar products.
FYI, although they are dangerous and require ppe that many hobbyists don’t have, there are spray cans with hardeners in them. They just aren’t very common. I have videos on that as well.
Pink Tacos Rule!!
holy geez thats koo... i wanna do a starcaster kit... might do this glitter spray idea!
I was thinking maybe doing this to my rims, perhaps maybe mixing the purple and blue on my palm and with like a blow dryer aim it on my rim from a distance (x2) then sealing it with clear coat after?????
Cool idea
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.
Looks awesome Brad, i want it, lol, thabk you for sharing with us, much appreciated, Cheers
I wonder what this would look like on MDF with the clear poly base coat.. hmmm
Looking for ideas for my sun enclosure.
It came out great! I like it. 😁
Thank you!
@@BradAngove you're welcome!
Looks awesome!👍😎🎸🎶
Nice Brad!
I wonder how this would look on a white base
Now I know how I’m doing my PS5 plates.
I ran across this old one while looking for techniques to finish that Tele Deluxe kit I mentioned that I want to carve a leather cover for. "Pink Taco?!" That's awesome!! :D So, judging from watching your technique here, it seems as though the real secret to a top notch "sparkle galaxy" finish is knowing when to throw the glitter overhand, underhand, or sidearm. :-D
Usually sidearm.
WOW ... nice !! I thought you where gonna use that rustolium galaxy color to do the same thing !! ha ha ha ... BUT I
That would be an interesting technique as well.
@@BradAngove Yes the thought has always crossed my mind would be to use that multi color galaxy to do say a burst effect with ... but i thought I read somewhere that it said to only be used on its own. BUT it might be a idea for you to do on a future episode bud. :)
Nice,
Sparkly!
Nice job.
