Damn learned two things today
1: that you can use an airbrush the refill and it looks awesome
2: HW made a Gru-mobile
Youd be surprised at what HW doesnt make now. They even made battlestar galactica models.
@@octane613 I remember seeing a Hot Wheels Curiosity Rover around the time that mission landed on Mars. In retrospective I regret I didn't get it.
@BloodMoonYT they tend to have at least 2 "screen time"(tv or film) vehicles each year,
so far they've done:
bttf delorean (regular and hover mode), ecto 1 ,doms ice charger, simpson car,jetson pod,flintmobile, cruella de ville car, mystery machine ,snoopy, a team van, .....you get the idea :D
Yep
I use the belton all 4 one refills for my markers and in my airbrush i did my shotgun in the refill paint and it held up pretty good
Thanks for the mention. Leaving the paint a long time seems to be the trick with the molotow paints. And it covers even the roughest surfaces very well.
Toy Polloi you guys should do a collaboration or cross over video... maybe restore a vintage hot wheels Star Wars toy or something
That looks amazing. Well done, another stunning Hot Wheels customizing technique!
I had bought this paint a while back, but hadn't applied it yet as I hadn't found a good tutorial. Thank you very much for the great video!
Looks fantastic! I'd love to see a gas lands / mad max style version of this car
Looks great!! Gotta say this is the best method you've shown off yet for getting that chrome look.
That finish looks amazing! Great stuff, very happy with the results. Another top notch painting vid.
I was in the middle of building a 1:24 Tamiya car model when I saw this video, I ordered the Molotow Liquid chrome ink refill to paint the metal sections and did so with a mix of 50/50 Mr Hobby’s levelling thinners and the LIquid chrome. The finish on the parts coated is beyond my expectations for the product, you don’t get how true to real chrome the finish is until they are side by side. I did a test on a artists paint brush, one with a chromed metal section holding the bristles in place, a friend couldn’t tell where the chrome ended ad the paint/ink began. 5 out of 5, 10 out of 10.
Wery nice, but do you think it gave you a better result than if you airbrushed it using Tamiya x 11 chrome silver thinned with the leveling thinner? Or maybe the super chrome silver 2 by mr hobby?
I've been using the Molotow pens since they came out but never knew there were refills and so never considered airbrushing them. The chrome look with these pens is outstanding but trying to cover larger areas without buildup is tricky. Airbrushing with refills is the perfect answer..thanks!
Wow this REALLY opens up tons of possibilities for customs with chrome. I really need to get an airbrush. Awesome job! Thank you 😎👍🏻
Wow! That really turned out nicely. Great work.
What a wonderful methode! This one really shines, almost like metal.
Looks amazing!
That is a cool technique to make the hot wheels realistic!
That finish is amazing. Great stuff as always!
Thanks for this vid.
The best I’ve seen for this paint, especially how long to leave it to dry, harden off
That looks amazing! I love seeing your new tricks.
Wow, that looks really good. I appreciate you making these videos. They always transport me back to the slow-moving, calmer days of the 70's. The first car/truck I remember having was a Baja Bruiser. I loved that thing. My mom bought it for me in the Sears store in Rapid City in 1974, I believe. I think she bought it to keep me from annoying her, lol. I think it would be fun to turn an actual full-sized truck into one.
This looks great! I always enjoy watching your videos!
great result. i look forward to seeing this paint used in future projects
I always wondered if Molotow chrome pen paint could be sprayed, good thinking and man it sure looks good, Nice job as usual. Thanks.
The marker is how I do my headlights, taillights, and turning signals. I hit the areas with the chrome marker, and then after it dries I use a extra fine point sharpie on taillights and signals. Also use it for door handles, locks and emblems. It's great for rechroming bumpers and rims too! I just bought a copper marker to try and revive a custom barracuda redline.
Wow, fancy backyard. Enjoyed the video as well -- amazing skill :)
Wow!! Definitely gonna ab some of that.. love the pens, never thought about the refills
I'm glad you tried this! Very nice results dude! 👍👍
That is a beautiful finish I must remember this next time I need a chrome finish.. Cheers
This answered a few of my own questions. Thanks.
I believe there's another benefit in using that paint, it can be applied with a brush which is really difficult or even impossible with other paints like alclad II or MM metalizers. Loved the result looks a hundred times better than the chromed plastic that Mattel uses.
Using a brush with Molotow - unless the object you're painting is really small - is a bad idea.
Airbrushing is easier and gives a much better result! I've tried both, and using a brush it's almost impossible not to have brush marks.
That looks incredible.
Impressive, that looks really good.
Awesome job it really brings out a lot of the details better in my opinion
Cool chrome look Sir
Yay new video. I always look forward to your uploads.
Thank you for the demonstration. I took some paint from the pen n put it in a spoon for brush painting. I later found that it adhered to the bare plastic and could not be rubbed off with the fingers.
Were there streaks?
@@EdsHouse00 with careful application, no streaking on this small area.
Can't wait to find out if the paint reacts in the coming months. Would be keen to try this!
Have you tried it? I just airbrushed 2 masquerade masks 4 days ago, and they turned out amazing!
This stuff really looks like chrome!! HOWEVER - 4 days later, I've been drying them in the sun - it's cool here at the moment under 20C - and the finish has gone a bit dull. I'm hoping this is just a transitional look, as I've heard Molotow takes a very long time to fully cure. It's now just a very bright almost matt silver in parts, while other parts are still shiny. I'm hoping it's the thick areas transitioning? I'm going to put them on my car windshield tomorrow to really dry them out for a few days and see if the shine comes back? Anybody else had this dulling effect after time? Does it go shiny once fully cured ?
Turned out really lovely
Always informative. Thanks again.
Now that's a piece of Art
That turned out amazing
BASS player here, thank you for sharing your experience, loads of info.
That chrome looks great. Please update us if the chrome turns ugly or not down the road. Would like to apply this method to the plastic base of some 70's redlines like the torino stocker. Thanks for the videos and keep up the great work.
The chrome's just fine if allowed a good few days to cure, it only dulls if handled before total cure which the impatient (I include myself there lol) are likely to do
I discovered the chrome pens myself and they are most definitely magic.
Love the videos, keep up the GREAT work!!
Very nice. The result is better than I expected it would be -- more reflective.
Nice result!
And thank you for the cool stereograph video at the end!
Glad you like it!
Turned out great, must try this.
I cross the eyes in the end)) Nice! I like that you try something new, in your technics and videos)
Great result! but If you want a better mirror finish and shine, I recommend using Alclad II chrome with their gloss black base. I used their product a few times and the results are great especially on small projects like this one. Many people say it is hard to use but from my experience it is not that hard. Just spray the gloss black with /30/35 psi and spray in thick layers and you need a really smooth surface. With the Allclad II chrome it is the exact opposite, first a really thin layers and spray it at an angle!!!
Yesss! Been hoping to find out if this worked, you saved me the trouble!
that looks fantastic.
Awesome!
Chrome paint base coat? Endless possibilities!😎👍🏽
Very interested to see this technique in future projects!
Hi. I love your videos, especially how detailed oriented you are regarding your process. You are absolutely helping people learn the hobby in the best way possible. I was curious as to whether or not you had any comments (now several years later) regarding the finish of the chrome. I realize that you later did a mad max conversion to the Gru-Mobile, but was curious as specifically as to how the Spectraflame clear coat reacted with the chrome (if at all)? Thank you again for your great videos.
I love the 3D at the end!
I'm working on an old Toy Biz Silver Surfer 1/12 scale model kit, and this looks like it might give me the finish I want!
It looks amazing! It almost looks like polished stainless steel
I always have Molotow Markers as paint markers. They do cover very well and the colors are very bright (Love the Poison Green), but I never used the Silver and Chrome ones, because i had some bad experiences in the past with silver markers (Before molotow) and didn't buy them since then. Just checked ArtPrimo channel who mada a graffiti on a model freight car using this Molotow chrome, and the result is just spectacular.
That's cool can you provide me a link?
Awesome ! Forging a path !
I'd be interested in in seeing how a black wash (to pop the details) might work on this. Thanks as always !
The end result is amazing, it looks like a full metal model now. I think this paint would work well with airplane model kits too.
nice to be able to get a great uniform metallic finish!
Cool,well done.
I've used the pens; never thought to use an airbrush. Great idea, will try on some wheels.
what a difference !! thanks for sharing!
This looks fantastic and I'd like to try it for plastic airplane kits for that bare aluminum look.
It looks like it would be great for restoring original HW chrome Sizzlers.
That would make an amazing base for Spectraflame colours!
Awesome. I gotta try it with spectraflame paint on top
So shiny. So chrome.
Looks great
Interesting method! The chrome spray cans work nicely, unless you touch it too much, or use clear coat, then it became just silver.
Precisa de primer? E qualquer marca de spray cromo serve?
@@robertoshigeeda1944 Há diversas marcas, a mais comum de ser encontrada é a Colorgin, o problema dessas latas é que o cromado não fica como na tampa, que é semelhante ás bases cromadas das miniaturas, parece mais um papel alumínio, até que reflete alguma coisa, mas como eu dise acima, a tinta queima ao toque, ficando prata até cinza, e se tentar usar veniz, ele se mistura com a tinta e causa o mesmo efeito. Se quiser algo melhor, existem kits químicos á venda.
Really cool!
I use the pens but this is awesome. today I will try out from the pen. Thank you for this idea and video.
Great base for candy. I love the pen too
Excellent!
That was an excellent idea and I will definitely have to try it out. I don't restore Hot Wheels but I do build semi truck models, and this looks like it could be a better alternative to Alclad for rechroming parts.
I would agree!
That came out incredible!
Perhaps try some weathering type black dust for around the engines?
Either way great job.
Awesome stuff
Those chrome pens are great. I use them a lot. You can go to hobby lobby. They sell them there.
I would definitely love to see elements of this car used in mad max builds
I'm amazed the clear coat didn't dull the Molotow chrome. I tried clear coating a chrome bumper on one of my models and it dulled it.
nice , i was searching for cool chrome products ... best i found so far is VICROM chrome effect give it a try .is much much stronger than any chrome paint i tried so far , although molotow seems to work pretty good
Looks great! Would love to see this weathered on a mad max build maybe?
Awesome! need to try that too :D
Look great bro
I thought you tan only use it for graffitu and canvas. I love how much uses this paint has.
Wow 😮 I’m speechless 😶... id like to mail off my casting to you for a bit of your magic !!!! Looks way way better Thanks for sharing your skills & keep them videos coming 😆👌🏼
Looks good
It would be cool to see this paint on a vintage redline hot wheels.
Great tech learned. Looks grear.
Very nice result. Chrome plating plastic will change the dimensions and hide the details you like to preserve. Your method is good as you can control the quantity of paint applied like an artist.
chrome Looks great!! A fantastic job your demonstration was Kewl thanks(Cheers)✨🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺✨
That's amazing..
I need some of that stuff for my parade shoes!
Very impressive
Good job. I see already have some Createx products. You must look into their silver and gold paints. Crazy shiny.
Now we must see a gold version of this pain
I have used this chrome paint in the pen format I find it excellent for small details
hi, can we use gloss varnish on this painting ? the paint keeps the same aspet with UV and time ?
Excellent
sweet job, now you are truly ready to steal .......THE MOON!
Dang it this casting is so cool!! Lol
It’s good to know there is another clear Cote option for this paint. Just to give you some durability on this. I painted steel bumpers on a 1:10 rock crawler which I use to drive through the woods. Months later and many abusive drives it is still as shiny as when applied. You can check the truck out on my channel EPA Crawlers.
Thanks West that's actually really helpful I'm going to check it out
hi , can you show me video ?
I definitely think your crew mobile in the future should have more details about it
I’ve been airbrushing this stuff into chrome parts when restoring Transformer toys. I’ve found that thinning it with Mr Hobby levelling thinners does two things. First, makes is spray beautifully, far better than straight from the bottle. Second, the paint seems to cure harder and quicker, most likely because it’s not on so thick.
Thanks!! Will give it a try...
