Testing 6 Alclad Metal Colors Plus Alclad Gloss Grey Primer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 окт 2020
- Here I test 6 more Alclad metal colors. Also part of this test is their Gloss Grey primer which was required for one of these paints. As always these paints are great. Some of the best on the market today. Grab some today
Seriously, thank you for doing these videos. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out which brand to try as a lot of what was available online was incomplete. I started about 6 months ago trying to adopt a consistent paint system for my metallics and candy coats, and after going through at least 13 different brands of metallics, ended up with Alclad due to price and availability.
Thanks for the positive feedback. It's always welcome. Alclad is the best paint the not many talk about. Reasonable prices too. I love the stuff. Now I do have more Metalizer paints to test including SMS, Splash & MRP so stay tuned for that. I'm also planning a mega test of every silver paint from every manufacturer, that's going to be fun
I appreciate your reviews of all different types of paint. Currently I use 11 different brands. I absolutely love alclad primers. Best I’ve ever used.
Yes the Alclad primers are great. I'm planing on a primer comparison test video and I'm sure Alclad will come out on top. You sound like me, I think I'm at 15 brands of paint.
this was incredibly helpful, thank you.
You're welcome Eric
Man, you're awesome. About 4/5 times I have a paint question RUclips sends me to you for answers.
Wow, that's great. If you ever have a paint question you can always ask me
from what my local shop has told me Alclad is no longer available as alclad, but now they are sold by Ammo by Mig under the label of AStand
You don't see a difference between the grey primers but I so see a shade difference! But I seem to pick up on subtle shades like this. I will say that the difference is indeed incredibly minor - especially after applying something over it - and your advice to close your eyes and pick one is still solid.
The gun metal is really pretty! You say you wouldn't use it in large sections but I am sitting here looking at Deathscythe Hell and wondering if gunmetal would be a good paint for the black areas. I thought about black chrome and chrome but I've worried that would be too much shiny and not enough shade differentiation.
Thank you for demoing the Alclad paints, your videos have been SOO HELPFUL.
The gunmetal would definitely look good on those parts of the Deathscythe. I'm considering it for one of my frames, the type where you see parts of it exposed on the Mobile Suit. Thank you for watching my video. More Metalizer colors coming soon, I just got more in the mail 😀
Although we recommend a Gloss Grey Primer with all our High Shine Plus paints, I personally prefer the Gloss Black Base as my primer. It gives a true mirror finish that I look for on airshow polished aircraft. When you use Alc-600 Aqua Gloss over any metallic, try using a soft wide brush. and paint on the AG in thin coats. This way you will not lose the lustre on the Metals.. Great test as always Sir!. Mark, Alclad 2
Thanks Mark for all the advice. It helps me greatly. My most asked question is how to protect the chrome without losing the chrome effect. I get that question the most. Are you saying brush it on instead of airbrushing it ? Is that the best way to go?
@@barbatosrex9473 When I want a mirror finish Chrome on my models, I use a very soft wide brush and layer on the Alc-600 in thin coats. This protects the Chrome and helps to keep the lustre.
I noticed that if you buy the Alclad that's in tandem with MiG the instructions are not as detailed =/ It doesn't say which can be buffed, and what base coat (primer) to use, or what varnish to put over them.
Great videos! Glad to find you on youtube.
I got a question about airbrush cleaning. I'm really new to airbrush and I'm planning to use Alclad/Mr Color/ Tamiya paints. I saw you use acetone for cleaning, do you only use that for cleaning or are there other products that's economical as well?
Keep up the good videos!
Outstanding my friend... Thank you...
Thanks for watching buddy
So good
Was wondering if there instructions ask for a time limit between layering if that would give those primers and paints a different appearance
Not really, these dry almost instantly
Do you know if i can apply acrylic varnish on top? I mean, black glossy primer + gunmetal + acrylic varnish?
Have you tried any of these over bare model plastic? Wondering if I do gunmetal straight over a gundam frame w/o primer how that will look... Your earlier test of the AKs over bare dark plastic impressed me....
What airbrush are you using to spray the alclad 2 laquer?
Great video mate! I always check your Alclad videos,and I ordered a few to try myself... Although I'm just starting to airbrush.
Do you sand and polish your spoons and/or the primer coat before you put the alclad colours? What do you do to get that super shiny chrome?
I just started using Alclad, but the primer clogged my airbrush.
Is there a certain amount of time to use primer/paint before cleaning so it won't clog?.
Those Alclad paints are great! I’m looking forward to the results you get from the mission models paint. I’m lookin for something to replace my dwindling stock of Modelmaster enamel but these acrylic paints are a bit intimidating I have to admit.
i know I am kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to stream new series online ?
@Mustafa Manuel Flixportal :D
@Emilio Zahir Thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D I appreciate it !
@Mustafa Manuel you are welcome xD
Is the gloss grey base the same as the gloss grey primer?
funny how we all see color differently . i can totally pick out the 2 greys . love that came out with greys, i love the whole product line. they mix with each other really well too. i get a great bronze with magnesium pale gold gunmetal. im gonna miss model masters silver, such a good brushing metal. Is Rustoleum discontinuing Testors as well? if so i gotta stock up on gun metal and yellow zinc chromate, won't miss any of the others.
Rust-Oleum is canceling the Model Masters line up because Rust-Oleum doesn't want to sell to small hobby shops and that's where Model Master is mostly sold. They only want to sell to big box stores, so with that kiss MM goodbye. Alclad is easily one of my favorite brands. I have another 6 colors to test as I just got them in. Thanks for watching
as always very appreciative to have your insight, but i work mostly on cars in which we sand the body for teeth, prime etc, would a shiny spoon alter the results for alclad? appreciate your input- thanks.
Man I hope you see this and shoot me an answer before I mess up. So can the gloss black base be used as a primer? Or should I put down Grey/white before the gloss black?
Back for the “Alunimumnummum” drinking game. 😂🤦🏽♂️
Mt Dew is my drink of choice
Does the gold titanium change color(like more gold from gold/silver look) after alclad aqua gloss? I tried out and it didn't come out as goldy/yellowy like yours at the end.
Hello great video but discovered just a last week.... I use alclad since many years.... there were not all that colors.... I liked the poli. alu so yesterday I went to my hobby shop to buy it....I really have to say it's not like your..... the code is the same.... the procedure is the same but the color is like a grainy silver.... and also attack the primer (gloss black tamiya laquer) I have some picture I would like to post but don't know where.... Directions on the bottle say to use an alclad grey primer below..... I also tried with that primer but the result is not different.....
Your videos on Alclad has saved me a lot of money. I'm really thankful for these!
Btw how is the durability of the gloss black base without using a primer? I kinda forgot to order one and it takes time for another shipment of Alclad to get to where I am.
The black base is a primer so there's no need for 2 primers. That's according to Alclad. So no worries, you should be fine
@@barbatosrex9473 You saved me more money, again! Thank you so much!
Hi, just subscribed and wow what a great set of videos. Unfortunately I can't find the Polished Brass anywhere in the US, Hobbylinc says its discontinued. Europe wants outrageous shipping because its a lacquer. Can any light be shed on its availability? Thanks for making such informative videos.
Welcome to the channel. It is true, they discontinued Polished Brass. Not sure why. I know they started a distribution deal with Ammo by Mig throughout Europe and I've been checking those to see if it shows up. I do know it's one of their more sensitive colors meaning it rubbed off very easy.
Keep your eyes on my channel as I've got a couple more Alclad's in I'm going to test.
@@barbatosrex9473 I did see the mig version listed on one european site but they didnt ship to the US. Look forward to more videos. The multi-part candy video series as especially interesting. Thank you!
I love all your videos on alclad. I recently got into gunpla. I painted a part with black gloss base then applied stainless steel over it. Without and clear coat I used tamiya panel liner and it completely took off all the paint like it was thinner. I waited 2 days for drying. People say enamel over lacquer is ok. Has this ever happened to you? Is the metal paints different kind of lacquer?
Alclad is a bit different from your standard lacquer. You can tell when you look into the bottle and you see mostly clear fluid with just a tiny bit of pigments on the bottom. So it's pretty sensitive. It's best to coat it with something to protect it if you're going to be adding to it. Enamels are tough to work with when compared to other paints, it's stronger. So I would do either coating it with something, say Vallejo Metal Varnish, Testors Model Master Metalizer sealer or Alclad Aqua Gloss, or switch to a acrylic based panel liner like Ammo Mig panel liner. You could also make your own by thinning a black acrylic paint and use that
@@barbatosrex9473 thanks for the quick reply. I'll definitely use aqua clear from now on. I figured since the metal was already so smooth with a hi shine the panel line would already flow easily then I'll just clear after but it didn't work out haha. I love all your videos they really helped me out.
What's the best realistic gold for rims and things
. My preference is Alclad Pale Gold. For spray cans I like Tamiya TS-21 Gold
Hey bud
How long after you spray the alclad chrome should i wait to clear with the aqua gloss ..
was bright and shiny till i cleared it ..
Help!!
You never really get that super shine back after clearing it. It's just the way it is. You lose a bit for protection. That said, you can coat it in 24 hours. But I've tried others like Vallejo Metal Varnish and you still lose that awesome chrome shine I just got in a new chrome Gloss coat and I'll be testing it week behind the scenes to see if it works better than Aqua Gloss or others.
@@barbatosrex9473
Thanks for that feedback!!
Thank you for your great video, they are really helpful.
I bought the gold titanium after seeing this video but unfortunately mine looks a lot more silver than gold... Do you have any advise about it?
Thanks
Well mine is an older jar. Maybe the newer formula is a bit different. Titanium is on of my favorite colors, what are you painting it over?
@@barbatosrex9473 thanks for your answer sir. I am painting over Alclad black gloss. I just watched another video of yours (the one that you are testing the Madworks airbrush) and the Gold Titanium turned really different compare to this video. Probably like you said it was an old jar, I really liked that colour though. Anyway all of your videos are really helpful
@@matt237z I know it has been a long time - but did you manage to solve your problems with titanium gold? Was it an old jar? I am going through exactly the same problems - it comes out as silver instead of gold.
@@danielkaras90 I used another gold colour at the end. I think it was an old formula like @Barbatos Rex said.
Have a question just used the Alclad 2 and found that if I spary more than a few layers (Chrome or Airframe Aluminum), the mirror finish will disappear and it will have more glare. So for the gunpla, do I need to airbrush the parts with only a very thin pass eg. 2-3. ?
It still looks matellic but less mirror like I spray to the spoon.
*PS* I'd used about 12-13psi
Go with very light coats. 1 or 2 passes is perfect. I spray at 15 to 20 psi. You'll see the mirror effect after the 2nd light pass
Okay every time I see alclad video I want to try them are they really worth getting?
Absolutely
@@barbatosrex9473 is there a set you can get or is it all just single purchases also I am having trouble you paints won't pull up its just blank ? Must be me
Sorry for so many questions, do you have any idea what is the shelf life of a Alclad II High Shine line as I probably will use it once in a while for the gundam or Mazinger and they seems last forever for a long way. And also the Aqua gross, will they be very easy to degrade in a short period of time if I unopen? Cuz I'm planning to buy a few bottles. Many thanks.
Not sure as to how long they'll last, I've had a few bottles here for over a year but you should get a few years at least. Same goes for the Aqua Gloss. Just be sure the caps are on pretty tight
Heyo!!!! Have you seen the pg unleashed? I got a preorder in!!!!! 😄
Oh yeah, I'll be getting one for sure, coming soon too 👍
Is it just me or doesnt the gold titanium look very golden?
What size tip is in the airbrush?
2, 3, or 5?
0.3mm
@@barbatosrex9473 Thank you
What would be the best Alclad chrome for car engines?
Black Chrome
You can use the aqua gloss over anything right?
Yes
Alulimum? 🤦🏽♂️
Lol you don't even try to pronounce "aluminum"
