Great video mate. This inspired me to try it further myself, but… I made a mess, backed out and decided to go to a pro 😂. If only you were in the UK I’d be booking my frame in fur a respray with you. Great enjoyable videos, but not for novices with new expensive carbon frames methinks.
Hi Martin my giant defy look the same as the propel when you was half way from stripping the paint . I find it very hard to believe it can get a more difficult bikes to strip . Wanted to respray black and gold so I’ll try to copy the fade effect cheers ivor
hi im a new subscriber here from the philippines.. , why you didn't use a chemical paint remover on your frame? hoping to your answer and your advice, thanks, more power to your YT channel..
Love your videos, informative and entertaining! I am attempting a bike paint job with my son using Montana paints as per your videos, it’s an aluminium frame but I’m not sure which primer to use? Do I need an etch primer and then 2k for a white base? I want to avoid any reaction from the primer to the top coat. Thanks!
Which is the exactly gold color on can spray used on client’s bike because is different gold color used on tube. I know you used a compressor system to paint the bike but this gold color could be funded on cans spray?
After you apply your clear coat (2k), would you be able to wet-sand any orange peel out and then polish out to a haze free finish? Coming over from automotive painting and would love to try my hand on a frame!
Super nice Video. If not the best I have seen so far. Im thinking about a new paintjob for my bike. What temperatures are suitable for a good painting? Since I have to do it underneath my roof (or outside) without hetaing (in the fall/winter).
Hey There. Do you wet sand prior to putting the vinyl mask logo on? And is it possible to wet sand metallics? Also, what do you clean the paint with ? And what vinyl do you use to make logos? And one last question, Do you polish after you clear?
On several videos you mention not to turn the object rather paint around it. What's the math behind this ? Dust ? I'm going to build a smal aspirator panel and I was thinking to rotate the frame in order to spray always in the direction of the aspirator. Thanks Martin, I've already learned a lot!
I have a Matt black bike with glass lettering. I love the color scheme but I’m getting a little tired of it. The pain is in excellent condition but I’d like to add a little pizzazz to it to liven it up a bit. I was wondering, is there a clear coat DIY spray I could use over this provide a slight color shift or oil slick effect without totally starting from scratch?

so im using a black 2k primer to make my metalix red look darker , but i need some white accents , all the logos will be shock white , do i spray the primer and then the white mask with stickers , then paint he rest , or do i sand the white and primer first to make it smooth ?
Very nice, Martin. I'm really learning in every video you post lately. Maybe you can post a link of that die cut vinyl cutting machine or the something like it. Thanks.
Hi, Great stuff! How long you say that colors in aerosol cans last, once taken in use? From your way of saying it, it sounds like it's longer than 48h like the 2K stuff.
that really is a beautiful paint job... I'd like to paint my bike but .... I'm a disaster at painting anything.. maybe I'll get some "junk" bikes to practice on ... amusingly if my bike was already bright orange I'd be quite pleased indeed.
Hi, I want to make custom transfer stickers. Where can I make that? You have German or Dutch online shops to make that? And what kind of sticker do I need because it should be removable and not take the paint with it.
Brilliant video, can the frame be sprayed with matt/satin clear cans or would it not work with the metallic ? I like the fade metallic but like matt/satin black frames too. Cheers Matt

Hey Martin. Love your Content...Thank you. I got one simple Question. How do I remove old paint from nearly impossible to reach (properly) areas on a fork/ frame ? Near the dropouts of my fork the are little recesses I simply cannot get into with standard sand paper. The parts are bonded aluminium into the carbon legs of the fork...so technically I could use a paint stripper....any other suggestions?
I wondered the same thing. I thought I could use my mini sand blaster but it wasn't strong enough. Or maybe a buffing wheel? Or maybe I should just ask my girlfriend.
@@chewbacca848 If you can get your gf to do it...go for it! ;) I did use the chemical paint stripper and protected the adjacent Carbon with Aluminium foil. Needed about 2 to 4 applications cause you never get it perfect 1st try! I used an old toothbrush to get the little particles out of the crevices....Frame turned out great

I can't believe I spent 22 minutes watching a video about painting a bike frame. Then again, it was that good.
Your are creating the best online diy painting video. Thank you !
I'm Japanese.I have painted my PROPEL this year. This video is very very interesting 😍 I'll subscribe to this channel!
Glad you like it.

Me too. The way he speaks makes his vids fun to watch.. Kinda like a fun dad
Awesome, Martin! Simple yet elegant. I love the fade effect.
You just earned another subscriber, your videos are very informative and you drill the. Fact the preparation is super important.
Love the gold/black fade - classic

Excellent. Thanks for your work. I learned a few things. Keep up the good work.

Hey. How long after painting can the film be removed (oracle)
Love that colour gold fade.
You are very talented. I hope one day i can paint my bike as well as you can. Great content. Also that beard is looking pretty cool.
Excellent! Loving these remarkable videos 👍💥
Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I loved your work .
Luxurious Color...amazing !!!
Love your job man!! So eager to repaint my toybike!!
awesome paint job.
Love your videos, I'm gonna do my carbon bike soon following this
Thanks for your Video's Martin. You are saving people lots of $$.
Great video !! any tips to center logos at the same place on both side of the frame?thx
Using a ruler or measuring tape is a good idea.

Great job as always Martin. Thank you.
Your videos are epic due to two reason (in the following order): (1) dad jokes, (2) paint jobs.
Love this man! So keen to paint my bike now
I put a primer coat before the base coat and then the main color coat?
Is there any sanding required between coats and clearcoat?
Great result. Why don't you use an exhaust system when spraying?
Too noisy for the mic.
@@ETOE If you weren't filming, would you normally use it?
All nonsense aside, you can't just pop out with that level of pun, without knowing some hella fine English. Well done.
Love your videos, informative and entertaining!

Can you make a video about your gun/air brush set ups and your air compressor set up 👍

Hey love these videos, it has inspired me to spray paint my helmet ⛑️. One question.... How long do you wait after spraying to wet sand?
Have you painted any MTB forks? Could you make a video about that if you ever do that? Thabks
You are just amazing!
Wow, thank you!
Super nice Video. If not the best I have seen so far. Im thinking about a new paintjob for my bike. What temperatures are suitable for a good painting? Since I have to do it underneath my roof (or outside) without hetaing (in the fall/winter).
25 degree Celsius
With the 2k is it best warming the can before applying. Could you link the gaffic paper to use .
My letters are very difficult to remove. Can you recommend a masking letters that remove easily?

Очень ловко! Лучшее по вело малярке!
You have any tips on how to spray light colors ?because I have a pink can and its ligit transparent and looks crappy
On light base. White means light.
Hi,
Great stuff! How long you say that colors in aerosol cans last, once taken in use? From your way of saying it, it sounds like it's longer than 48h like the 2K stuff.
Approx 2 days.

on the frame did you use Montana Gold Shock Black OR
Gold color rim in front and black color in rear, what did you think it is good or nah?
Have you ever experienced the smell of rotten meat? What do you think is it good or nah?
Where can we get a customised Sticker buddy??
In the kindergarden. Ask for the "Bienchenheft."
@@ETOE sure sir🙄👍👍
What are you cleaning the parts with? Water or alcohol?
Nach dem Lackieren, bleibt Kleber Fon Decals, warum so?
Like two colors gold and black in mi Kona blast model 2000 year, thanks master
What solvent you use to clean before applying paint? Thanks
Water. That's the one with the W in the front and the ater in the back.
Very very nice....Greetings from Italy
Hi, I want to make custom transfer stickers. Where can I make that? You have German or Dutch online shops to make that? And what kind of sticker do I need because it should be removable and not take the paint with it.
Question: What do you think about using paint stripper to remove paint, instead of sanding for long hours ?
Answer: it destroys the resin and carbon bond. Do it if you want to harm the integrity of your frame.
@@ETOE Sorry I didn't mention before, I don't have carbon bike, only aluminium, so it is still ok to use it to make the job easier ?
Hi.To remove the original paint why you don't use a paint remover 🤔?
Because is removes also the epoxy which glues the carbon fibers.
I see..thanks for your time to reply...I enjoy your videos 😄
what do you recomend custom painting a pinarello rs road bike
Hi Martin, how can one print his own sticker like you did here? Seems we need special cutting printer and sticker sheet?
please watch this video: ruclips.net/video/VvVZoGp8OeA/видео.html
@@ETOE Thank you so much Martin
Greg van Avermaet’s bike 😍😍
And what is it your recommendation use a mask to paint inside or use a logo like you are using in your example?
Use a mask to paint as I use in my example.
Is it really that hard to get the frames bare to avoid the time consuming sanding process?
can we use the same technique on aluminium alloy?
Yes
@@ETOE Thank you😃😃😃. Do you have any other alternative for Montana metallic gold? cause I am not able to find it.
Where do you get those stand to spray?
Hey bro.i want my carbin bike painted.really love ur work.
Hi Martin love this colour scheme but was hoping to do this but in matt , any tips for clear coat (matt )
Use matt clearcoat instead of gloss clearcoat.
Do you need to degrease after you sand the paint coats?
Nice bike!!!
hello, i want to ask u what kind of sticker(film)do u use?
Right now I really want to paint my bike!!!!!! But how about matt finish????
Please watch the matt finish video of the Cervelo !!!!
I wonder how your accent sounds with the mask on :))
what would you use to protect a matt finish?
Hey Martin, quick question if you wanted to thin some montana gold paint to stray through an airbrush, what would you use?
Brilliant video, can the frame be sprayed with matt/satin clear cans or would it not work with the metallic ? I like the fade metallic but like matt/satin black frames too. Cheers Matt
I love the color
Would it be a problem if these colours were reversed? I mean, painting the base colour as gold and the darker colour (black) over top?
Great video! 💥 What black primer do you recommend for carbon?

What type of printer is that for the logos?
How many clearcoat cans do you need for a single frame?
three quarters of one can.
Is the process the same for steel bikes like chromoly bmxs?
Yes it's the same for steel but not for aluminum.
@@ETOE Great! Do you have a video with an aluminium bike? I did a search for "aluminium" and didn't find anything.
Hi Martin,
do you spray primer on the sanded carbon or do you use the black (Montana Gold) for as a primer for the carbon surface?
Thank you!
primeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!
@@ETOE okaaahaaaaaaaay. Thank you 🙏 which primer do you use with Montana?
when do you know you're done sanding?
When my fingerprints are gone.
Does anyone no if paint stripper is an option as I’ve seen a few people use the method.
Yes if you want to delaminate your frame.
@@ETOE what does that mean?
is it good warm up spray can in hot water before apply ?
no that's only with transfers, the one you apply clear on top. these a vinyls. those you apply without water
It has to have the same temperature as the frame. Both must be warm enough to spray paint.
@@ETOE many thanks for quick response:) have a good day
The question is do you wait for the color to dry completely before removing the decal/sticker or just 10 minutes?
Normally two slices of tuna pizza. If it is chilli pizza only one and a half slice.
