This is why I love your channel. As a beginner, I've learned more useful and practical things from you, than about anyone else on RUclips. Thank you. Now if I could find out where you got your brush stands.
I’ve tried quite a few nail polishes also. The OPI line has some amazing colors. I live in Ft Lauderdale so I can look at nail polish in Ulta without getting any strange looks😳. The best part of nail polish is the chameleon or mystic colors. They’re expensive to buy in almost any form of car or model paint but in nail polish they’re only a few dollars and by the time you reduce them, you can usually get enough to paint a 1/24 car model. That blue and purple you have, look amazing.
The purple over the black looks amazing, think that was my favorite.
Mine too.
I've used nail polish airbrushed for quite a few years! Works great for specific metallics! My absolute favorite brands are ESSIE and OPI. Expensive ones! The biggest disadvantages are: they like to discontinue colors and no longer have suitable replacements! Also, I can't stand the color names, haha, terrible dad joke puns for the color names! I use walmart purchased lacquer thinner to thin as well as clean the airbrush. My favorite metallic was NO PLACE LIKE CHROME, lol
Well this was really interesting. I have to admit that it would never have occurred to me to have tried nail polish in my airbrush, have to say some of the results look very impressive.
i've always wondered about this! i saw some that sells stuffs like chrome and black chrome nail polish that might be a really nice alternative to actual chrome paints
Here's a tip to save even more: in the Walmart Paint department, Jasco/Kleen-Strip acetone sells for $9.64 per quart (where I am) and Rust-Oleum acetone sells for $11.44/qt. But in the Beauty department, Onyx Professional 100% Pure Acetone is $2.53 per pint. Two pints equals 1 quart, so $5.06 per quart. Just be sure it's the 100% pure and not just "Nail Polish Remover".
Awesome tip, have to check that out.
It's been a long time since I've ordered any (I used to use it to lift the ink from official MTG and Pokemon cards, then design my own customs with the blank foil cards), but I can confirm that this was the case. I always bought Onyx Professional in 16 oz. (1 pint) bottles, and while it's been a couple years, they were $2.48 per bottle then on Amazon. They cost about $9 per pint on Amazon now, though (luckily I have a back stock of 4 unopened bottles from back then). I'll have to check my local Wally World to see their pricing, though. If you can get it for 2.53 there, then I sure as hell won't ever restock through Amazon.
Awesome! Thanks for the tip. I'll have to add it to WM list
This is amazing, thank you for this info. I was really curious about this too, great to see how to apply it
Awesome... Just awesome. I'll definitely try this with that purple.
Glad you revisited the nail polish tests!! I've been eyeing some of my wife's for a few weeks since I saw the older test...LOL
Interesting, would never have thought to spray it before. They do have some amazing colors
I'm often on the lookout for unusual ones because they're great for small stuff like accent details on Gundam robots.
Thanks for the mixing tips! Been wanting to try this.
Great video, I have heard about nail polish being used before but never tried it. This video inspired me to go to the dollar store and pick one up (One of the ones you had actually the purple Lets go by Sinful Colors) I sprayed a spoon and was really happy with the results! Just need to test my Mr. Hobby Super Clear Gloss on it!
Very interesting 🤔 never would have guessed nail polish! Great work!
Sure widens the choice of colour ranges for 1 off jobs. Thanks again.
Cool stuff. And i real happy that you put the video up on patrion first
Gorgeous colours!
I've been using a 70/30 ratio of thinner to paint. I've found that Odorless Mineral Spirits works nicely. I've sprayed at 30psi in really light mist coats and build a finish. I typically spray over a silver or gold base coat as these colors are really transparent, treating them like a candy color :). Great video!
That's awesome to know. I'm just starting out with airbrushing and not sure of anything really. I do have a gallon Oderless Mineral Spirits and wasn't sure if I could use it or not so I'm glad I read through the comment section. Thanks for the help
@@BDraggondid the mineral spirits work for you as well
So interesting! Might have to try some nail polish on my models in the future
That were some awesome colours. Now i can nick and clean out the misses stockpilo of nail polishes she has and never use. Time to get the springclean up started early in january next year. May you and the misses and all in the USA and Canada__ have a nice thanksgiving a mighty good end of the year. Gr from spain
I use Mr.Hobby thinner as well. I even clean off toy apps on some of my Transformer collections where they tried to add Shattered glass to the figure and I hated it so I use that to clean it off. Also that polish you use the 1st blue was the same color as my father's Harley Softail bike he had and loved. I just got the model cause my old one the handlebars broke so gonna start on this new one once I get a nice Chrome Silver that you used a while back in your video.
another typical outstanding video from you
Cool as always.
that is a good idea i should try the acrylic paint sold at the dollar store and see if they will work as well .
Cheers for the video. I've been eyeing up and buying nail polishes for their colours and want to airbrush my car models in them
Great info! Thank you!
Thanks man - Happy Thanksgiving
My wife said "what?!" Because she heard my "oh my god" from across the house. That blue looked amazing over the black.
Brown on the oxide red looks almost bronze but got to say that blue an the purple over the black was awesome!!!!
Can you do a video on eye shadow.... It is great to use like pastels over metal finishes and a huge range of colours... There are a few other uses for them by adding into either gloss or matt clear coats
Brilliant Idea !! Can you make another video trying over some lighter colors? Like white or light green. I've been searching for a good performing white gloss base for months.
I bet that Paparazzi Tango would look amazing over orange, or even mixed 50/50
Just bought an OPI color for a motorcycle I want to build. “Chicago champagne toast”.
So, 1-1 mix with a .5 needle at 15-20 psi in a grex. Will give it a shot. Have a peaceful weekend.
Your too my friend
@@barbatosrex9473
So that’s a good air pressure and needle size to go with?
@@Johnny-tt8zc anything from a 0.3mm or larger. 20 psi is good
I have a bottle of automotive touchup paint that I'm really curious if it would work on a model or through an airbrush. No idea what it's made of but smells more volatile than acrylic.
Thanks again Rex, for yet another great tip. One question though. Am I the only one that feels a little self-conscious rifling through the nail polish racks between the ladies? Heaven forbid if we both reach for the last bottle of "Let's Talk"!
They would likely just think it's for a gift or something :p
What clear coat would you recommend for a ps5 controller? I was going to use creativeX toppe matte.
Very nice color. Have you ever tried to use fountain pen ink
when I painted the one and only time with nail polish (still want to paint my model), if I thinned it with lacquer thinner, it wrinkled but with acetone it painted fine. The color is red and I want to paint it over silver...do you think it's the silver that wrinkled it? Good thing it was a spoon test and not my model. Sally Hansen "No Sleep" nail polish. I can't get Mr Hobby stuff in Canada, what is a good alternative?
Holy shit!? I think I’m gonna try that first one to paint my 1/25 Batmobile amt build
Can you do this with Gel Nail Polish as well? The kind you need to cure?
Can i use this to my diecast cars?
In My Opinion; ..Of all the Model Car Channels that I viewed thus far .on RUclips .."Barbatos Rex"..is The Ultimate Best!!..for His, How To, In Depth Coverage, Hands On, Inclusive Step by Step, & Your Trial of Products/Brands/Types of Color Applications Is Very Few & Far In Between..=The Ultimate Best!!....I'm rather curious on something tho...I noticed in this video of applying/using the Nail Polish you use GLOSS Black as a base color ...if One was To Use A FLAT BLACK BASE COAT ..as Opposed to The Gloss Black Base Coat...Would it Give the Same End Result as the Gloss Black Base Coat ?..I hope I'm not confusing you:(
Whats the best way to clean the airbrush after you use nail polish in it?
👍👍👍👍👍
Nice! There are some interesting colors for sure. I watched a guy that did a chrome test that had a UV set nail polish and powder set that looks awesome and had a gold like you were looking for. You coat it with the clear, UV set the clear, and then rub the powder on it and it's done. He was doing a plastic hood ornament and it looks like chrome and he tested all kinds of hobby paints. I think he got the powders and UV wet clear off Amazon.
The chrome looked fantastic, I'd love to see him test more colors!

@@abby2674 Thanks for filling in the blanks!
Could you please post a link to the video?
I'm curious, but can't find anything
@@locomotivebreath9364 I think it's-ruclips.net/video/ninpBuzNSxQ/видео.html
@@locomotivebreath9364 It's the very last thing he tries if you don't want to watch it all.
Remember, ask the wife or girlfriend first before raiding the nail polish. lol
I have been considering trying out nail polish on my builds but was thinking that it may be to hot for the plastic. Can you use almost any primer with nail polish? Obviously, the darker primers bring out the polish color better. What brand of primers do you recommend? I usually airbrush craft paints and recently have started spraying Createx Airbrush Colors.
Any type or brand of primer will work
Would these work with Mr Rapid Thinner?
Interesting, 🤔
do I need to get the thinner or can I use the water or windshield wiper fluid method?
Definitely not.
very interesting, had not think about using nail polish. Especially for more color choices.
I don't kmow what is in those nail polish but minutes after mixing the nail polish and laquer thinner in a small container, the bottom melt. Why is that?
What about Gel types?
What would you guys recommend for a starter air brush set up?
It would only be used a couple times a year due to time restrain but want to get into the hobby. Thanks you.
What's your budget?
@@barbatosrex9473I haven't looked into the what's available or even good but maybe $50-80?
As I was rewatching...do you ever use a putty on your models to protect other colors when you're painting?
Are you talking about using a putty kinda like a masking tape? I'm just getting started so looking for as many tips and tricks as I can
I'm not going to lie, but I'm not too impressed with the results from this test. The blue and purple look kinda nice over black, but only if you're looking for a sort of subtle black colorshift effect. (Black with a slight color when looking at it in certain angles).
But... I wonder what they'd look like over silver/chrome? Maybe that would result in something more gorgeous? A candy effect, maybe?
Brushed on, they look great though!!
Just curious if you tried the Leveling thinner with the nail polishes ? I'm thinking that slightly slower flash time might lead to added gloss. Not that this is bad as is mind you, just curious.
It will work but it doesn't yield a big difference
@@barbatosrex9473 I'll have to try it, I notice that OPI and Beauty Secrets nail thinner has only a couple or three ingredients which a couple are in Mr Leveling. Hardware store thinner has acetone and tolulene additionally, so hotter as I think you mentioned. But I've used hardware store thinner, it tends more toward a flat finish when airbrushing nail polish.
@4:30 ...I see you don't wipe the rim...tisk tisk ...Mrs Rex is gonna be upset
🤣
I hope you're all doing well.
Could you use gel nail polish instead?
Yes
Lol time to raid some makeup cabinets. Are there any oderless cleaners?
I recently purchased a Gaahleri airbrush, the middle one. Will that be able to paint nail polishes
Yes it will 👍
@@barbatosrex9473 Do I have to use a larger needle than the one that came with it
@@user-zm6xi8wr9g no you'll be OK with the way the airbrush comes. Just thin it as I show here and you will be good to go
The polish reads nail enamel do I use the lacquer thinner or do I use another thinner for it, this is all new to me, as I am just getting started doing scale models
Have you tested UV cured nail polish ? If not can you ?
Sure I'll test that here
Great video, just a shame that you went off at a tangent. Would have een nice t have seen how the clear had worked over the 3 that you had started with.
what brand is that purple paint?
One is LA Colors and the other is O.P.I.
@@barbatosrex9473 thank you sir.
Do you have a video, on the care and feeding of the air brush? In real peoples words: Cleaning, when and how?
NEVER MIND. Found it. :)
Why’s your air filter pointed the opposite way in the booth with the arrow out? With nail polish a lot of the metallics are sheer unless you buy the expensive brands, the flakes are the color and the pigment is minimal. The clears that are labeled as base, like the one you used in the video, are thin enough to spray with no thinning even though you thinned yours.
Use a scale to get a true 1 to 1
Would you spray a model with nail polish?
I've done it. You need to use some form of sealer because it really likes to have a go at the plastic. If you follow suit properly it turns out fine.
Never mix polish with acetone it can clog your airbrush really bad
wait, 2 videos ago, you said your next one was all about scribing.
Scribing video will be out tomorrow, Thanksgiving
Any plans to upgrade to 4k video quality someday?
The results are excellent in regards to the colour but the metallic flake is just too course for most scale modeling applications. Even on 1/2" scale cars the flake is approaching 1/4" particles which isn't realistic in the least. But for solid colours, sure looks good - certainly over a dark base.
Those are some weird colors
@barbatosrex9473 great video
