So guys.
Did a lot of experiments the last days and A LOT of research on rattle can paint.
My aim was to see how the paint gonna turn out,just bought a can of the same acrylic rallte can Dupli i'm gonna work with and shot it onto primed epoxy and primed steel,tried a grey and a black primer.
So what i learned is:
Laying color needs patience-
Lay thin coats,especially with metallic,it will show where to much or too less paint was applied
Do not paint outdoors without wind protection-overspray-metallic particles will burst around-
Zero air movement is the key!
My aim was also to see the impact when i paint in worst conditions-i painted my fender in the dusties place of my workshop-just had a few grains in the paint getting stuck----what can i do when this happens?--let it dry and scuff with red scotchbrite?
This showed me when I will make all precautions-no dust-full lint free suit-NO AIR MOVEMENT--the paint will be clean and i wont deal with that.
I also bought a nice cheap (10 euro) fantic tank on an oldtimer fair today on which i will test my paint plan before i go for the big guns (RD tins and plastics).
I will guys let you know the results!
