  • Below is a list of everything I used in the video. This was by far my longest RUclips project so far (about 200+ hours), so let me know if it was helpful or entertaining!
    First Round Sandpaper (400 grit): amzn.to/3LjIgdA
    Second Round Sandpaper (600 grit): amzn.to/3G0CI6Z
    Third Round Sandpaper (800 grit): amzn.to/39j0r5U
    Primer: amzn.to/3l7sjN7
    Transfer Paper: amzn.to/3MiQ2pl
    Tape: amzn.to/3waxTV7
    1/8" Fine Liner Tape: amzn.to/3LfAAZN
    Posca Paint Pens: amzn.to/3Mi9Toy
    White Paint: amzn.to/3wvdWqW
    Clear Coat: amzn.to/3we2bq9
    You'll also need a painter's mask, gloves, drop cloths, tools to disassemble the bike, a cleaning solution like rubbing alcohol, and a bucket of warm water for the wet sanding.

      @@palimpalim7447 ... yeah, there is a little texture to the paint, but it isn't distracting in person. I actually like the feel of the texture, but that is a personal preference. If you were going for a super smooth paint job it is best to use an airbrush for sure. Decals would give you the same smooth look too. Paint pens, brushes, etc. will always have a little texture. The clear coat smooths it out a little.
      The paint here is a little thicker than it would be with less colors. Posca pens are great because they are opaque so you can layer colors cleanly on top of each other, but you do have to make sure you cover over completely so that increases the topography of the final paint job.

    Hi , what pen did you use to outline your design before painting it with the posca pens ? :)

    • @BikesAndSnacks
      @BikesAndSnacks  7 месяцев назад

      The sketch was made on drawing paper in pencil, then outlined with a Micron pen... to transfer the sketch, I used carbon transfer paper sandwiched between the sketch and the frame. If you trace over the image with a pencil, the pressure on the carbon paper causes it to draw lines on the blank surface (the frame). So, I didn't use a pen... I hope that makes sense.

      Clear coat goes on last. Posca paint dries quickly, but wait a day just so you are sure you’re completely done… once the clear coat is on you can’t paint anymore. You HAVE to use clear coat to protect the Posca paint.

    • @BikesAndSnacks
      @BikesAndSnacks  2 года назад

      Posca paint is pretty delicate… once you are done you need 2-3 layers of clear coat. But, the clear coat will protect the paint. I had it on the roof of a car for 3 hours in a storm in Switzerland and the paint was solid. So far no fading in the sun.

      Hi, thanks for watching. The POSCA website says their paint resists sunlight. But, I haven't had a chance to build the bike back up. The humidity in DC made spraying the last clear coat difficult until the winter. So, I won't know until this summer.

    Is it ok if you will make a glossy finish using a spray paint for that bike artwork?

    • @BikesAndSnacks
      @BikesAndSnacks  2 года назад +1

      Hi, I didn't show it in the video, but I added a glossy clear coat over the paint to protect it. Posca paint pens are water based, so they will run if you get the paint wet. If you apply clear coat onto the Posca paint, be sure to do a very light coat first because even the clear coat can cause heavy paint spots to streak/run.

      Hi, good question. I used 80 pound acid-free drawing paper out of a large sketch pad. But, that is because it was the largest thing I had around. It would have worked with printer paper too, but I would have had to tape a few sheets together. Good luck if you're doing a similar project!
