    Great video! Love the Crafsman bot. What do you think is the lower limit in terms of temperature for painting with vinyl paints? I work in the garage because of the fumes, but it's unheated and it's starting to get close to freezing where we live.

    • @vinylwonder
      @vinylwonder 10 месяцев назад

      We recommend people spray between 60 and 90 for best results, but I've painted at much colder temperatures (and also hotter temps) and gotten away with it. Airbrushing clear coat or certain metallic colors are the ones that you really have to be careful of blushing when it's too cold or wet. My method of dealing with the cold is by turning on a radiant space heater that blasts me and my spraying area and keeps the freshly painted toys warm. It can be a little tricky painting like this, but you get used to it pretty fast, and you'll end up forming a technique that works for your conditions.

    Your dogs are cool. Clover has advanced cataracts. It is seen that he is of legal age. Do not touch her. Additionally, eye surgery to remove a cataract in a dog costs US$4,200. 😬 On the other hand, I have healthy envy of you. You have the workshop that every artist dreams of. Everything is planned in your workshop. Order and safety in the workplace is a guarantee of success. I know vinyl toy manufacturers who paint on the balcony of their apartment, with the consequent disapproval of the neighbors. 😂 Thank you for this video, it is very complete. I have seen many videos on assembling and painting parts and it doesn't teach even a tenth of this. Your advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing this video.🙏👍❤🙂

    • @vinylwonder
      @vinylwonder 10 месяцев назад

      Thanks so much! I'm glad you found it helpful! Clover is actually only 2 years old. She has a birth defect called micropthalmia as a result of her double merle genes. We've taken her to a specialist who has assured us the blood tears are a normal part of her eyes closing up naturally. We know they can look alarming, but she is not in any pain and they are a normal occurrence for her. Eye removal was an option for us, but when she was a baby she still had a tiny bit of sight. We chose not to take that from her and to let them close on her own. The specialist said that by the time she's around 4 years old they will be closed. She's on prescription eye drops for now. Thank you again for watching!

    Excellent video. Thanks for the explanation. 👍👍👍 I have two questions: 1. I have a friend who disassembles the entire airbrush and soaks the metal parts in thinner a day before. He has told me that this makes it easier to remove old paint. Then he runs a wire brush to clean the inside. Does it seem appropriate to you?I understand that you don't have as much free time as he does.😄 2. If the needle is a little damaged at the tip, doesn't this affect the flow of paint? Even when the needle is a little warped in its length, I think it affects the function. How do you verify that the needle is completely straight? 🤔 Thank you. 🙏

    • @vinylwonder
      @vinylwonder 10 месяцев назад

      Hey! Good questions. 1. vinyl thinner works pretty fast, and is stronger than most thinners, so I don't think you need to soak the parts that long. 2. I've never had a needle warp, but I have dropped one before and it chipped the tip. You should be able to see that it's damaged by looking at it with a magnifying glass, or if it doesn't spray well, that's a good sign. They aren't too hard to replace, thankfully. Thanks for watching!
