HOW TO Make Red Cement 3 into Black Cement 3: Custom Air Jordan Step by Step Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- In this tutorial I will show you exactly how to turn the Air Jordan Red Cement 3, into the greatest sneaker of all time, the Black Cement 3.
The Black Cement 3 last released in early 2018. It was the first time that they released with the coveted "Nike Air" branding in almost 20 years. Since that release, Jordan Brand has improved upon the shape of the Jordan 3, so I wanted to create the perfect sneaker. The Black Cement 3 with Nike Air AND the shape that is true to the OG.
Are you going to give this custom a shot?!

Will you be trying the RC3 to BC3 custom?
100% I’ll rock these and leave my C3 dead stock
Prices on BC3 are too high. And the toe box shape on these is too perfect. I think you just sold me on copping a pair and converting them. NO finisher? Just use flat black?
You won't regret it! Definitely use a finisher. Just make sure you add a little bit of duller to the finisher so they don't end up as shiny as mine did.
@@SoleVice Got it. I usually use Krylon Matte finish cause Angelus is too glossy. But Idk if I want Krylon in this one, might look a little too matte. Duller mixed in a little angelus matte might have to do. Thanks again bro. Love the video. 🤙🏽
Thanks man! Appreciate you stopping by✌🏼
I was looking as this like “hmmm if the upper was black it would just be a black cement lmao”
I feel the same way about these red 3's. The main reason I got them is simply because 3's and 4's are my favorites. I got my first pair of 3's in 1987 when I was in seventh grade and they instantly became my favorite pair out of the pairs of Jordans that I already had. I had red/white/black 1's and white/red/black 2's. As you stated, they finally got the shape and cut really close to the OG's. Now that they did so I have no problem painting these to make a black cement. It will actually be the closest to the OG's since the first retro 3's released in 1994. Really good video.
Wow you had them back in the 80s! That's super dope. Thanks for checking out the video✌
Thanks for the high quality and detailed video. I’m boutta do this custom this weekend. Every other tutorial seemed really rushed and went over certain details that you laid out clearly in this vid. Thanks a ton
Just turned my gym red 1 lows to chicagos . I think im going to do this one next ! Great content brotha 🔥
Super slept on CUSTOM!! I may consider getting a pair just to do this custom.
You should!
Y not just buy a black pair
1. These have a better shape 2. They’re less expensive
Well I'm a big fan of the red so im biased
@@SoleVice ur cuztom is solid af bro I just looooove the red... I usually mismatch mine with the blacks one of each
How did they hold up? Any paint cracking from creasing or red leaking thru? Also did the red peel off the eyelets from friction on the laces?
Had no idea this was even an option! Good stuff bruh!
Amazing video. Def doing this!
Mate, watched this video and did the custom step by step. Turned out good, considering it was my first time painting. Thanks for making this video, it saved me many hundreds of dollars compared to buying black cements at resale value (got the red cement on discount too, which was a bonus)
Glad to hear the video was helpful! Enjoy the kicks man. Doesn't get better than a fresh pair of BC3.
I did mine and they came out pretty good just really shiny, can I still use the duller to kinda take that away?
how is the paint holding up? will the paint on the toe box crack when u try to run with these?
Oh hell yeah great idea
Nice video. I did this custom myself, it's easy AF. REAL TALK!!!
As you can see in the video the Angelus Matte finisher needs duller added to it to get rid of the shine. Duller is good to have around, you can add it to any color of acrylic paint that isn't flat to get rid of that cheap shiny look. Nice work!!!
This makes me want to buy a pair of red cements just to custom them. It turned out great. I can’t believe I won the t shirt. Thank you Sole Vice!
You should do it! Enjoy the shirt!
Man you killed that!
Thanks man. I'm definitely happy with the end result.
Bro... Why was video so friggin satisfying?? Love it dude!
Haha glad you enjoyed it homie. Thanks for coming through.
That's sick bro
Nice!!💪🏽💯
Thanks for the video man! Going to try and do this myself hope it comes out as good as yours! Hope your wifes back it feeling better also! Have a great day man!
They look clean. Didn’t seem too glossy to me but in person is always a different story. Ive seen the krylon matte finisher works well.
I sold my BC3's to do this...really digging the more OG cut and slimmer elephant print. I got the Red Cement 3's in the closet right now, but gotta find the balls to just do it lol. Worried about messing up somehow being my first custom
It’s not too bad! Just take your time and you’ll crush it.
never ever thought about doing this but im try it out i have the red cements from all start weekend in Chicago so in the back it says chi instead im make them black cements since i never was able to get the shoe ty for the video
Dope video!! Great job with the custom. I might need to go grab an extra pair of red cement 3s and turn them into a Sat project. Btw, hope wifey is feeling better.
Thanks Johnny! I definitely recommend doing it. Especially if you can find a pair for retail. Can't have too many pairs of BC3s! My wife is on the slow and steady mend. Thank you for your well wishes.
nice job i used angelus black leather dye first came real good
Yo great job and good information. Word up.
🙏🏼
Good job, I have a pair of Red Cements that's been DS for 2 years and have been thinking about this since I don't have Black Cements
Hi the Nike air on the back of my black cement 3’a are yellowing is there anything I can do? Can I paint them with Angelus white?
How would I go about doing the Black Cement Gold 3s to the Black Cements?
buying these on goat tomorrow hopefully. i’m super excited about it.
Nice! Congrats and good luck!
I'm kicking myself now. I saw these Red's a month ago at a thrift store...they still wanted $85 for them and condition was not great (toe and heel drag esp.), but uppers were not that horrible. The red for me was an instant turn off, but thought exactly after I left..."just paint them black with Angelus paint I have!" They were gone the next day. If I see them again in my size, maybe cheaper (hopefully) I will buy them just to paint them! Nice video!!
Love the johnny shirt!
Can I use the angelus white brand paint on the toe cap?
Thank you
🙏🏼
two words, hellz yeh
Perfect video I needed this I want to do this cuz the price’s to the cement 3s is out of control right now 😢
Famo this is tight. You got me wanting to do this to mine. Lucky for me, I have 2 pairs of these J's. Im definitely gonna follow your tutorial.
Hell yeah! Let me know how it goes!
@@SoleVice most definitely
Is the matte acrylic finisher needed?Its out of stock im just wondering if it’s needed
will a 1 oz bottle for the flat black be enough?
Would you be able to drop more custom vids you’re vid was the first one I clicked on trying to learn how to customize retros
Thanks I got em fire reds and do not know how to style em
is the paint holding up? does the acrylic finish actually work?
Damn gotta say was skeptical at first! Like what are you doing!!! But not gonna lie they looking 🔥💯
Man I have doubles of the 2018 black & cement 3s and I wonna do that to a red cement 3
I just had my red cements customized to black cements but noticed the paint already cracking on the creasing parts in the areas that have the non-tumbled leather. Any advice as to how to correct this? Do I just paint over them again? Thanks in advance!
Sounds like whoever did the custom missed a step. Unfortunately, you'll most likely have to repaint. Touch up doesn't usually look very good.
How can I get rid of the shine of the black paint?
They look awesome 👏 👀 🔥 Great video for sure going to do this in the future.
Thanks and good luck! It's time consuming but not too difficult.
great video bruh imma do this when mines come tmr
Thanks bro!
Let me know how they turn out!
Yo did you ever do it?
Did you use 2 hard for eyelets?
i got these used but in mint condition for $130 and randomly saw this video i can’t wait till my paint comes in!! i’m finna rock these forever and keep touching them up
That’s a steal!
@@SoleVice so have the paint cracked? Please respond
After a few wears the paint is still in good shape.
this guy needs more likes
TYSM!🙏
Bro great video, would it be possible you leaving links to the supplies?
Thank you! I can't believe I forgot to do that! I'm gonna add them right now. Thanks for pointing that out.
Have you worn these much and if so how has the paint hold up, are they cracking?
Unfortunately I haven't worn them much so I can't answer that for you.
It’s Amazing That You Customized RCIII Into BCIII Looking Like OG Form See I Was Gonna Get 2018s But 2020 Release Got Greater Shape Than 2018 See I Might Double Em Up To Do White Cement & Black Cement If I Want To
I was thinking about doing a white cement too! You'd probably need a few more coats of paint, but I think they would come out really nice.
Sole Vice That’s True See I Rather Buy Used Red Cements Buy Paints And Paint Brush Over $300+ On The Actual Shoe Anyday
Without a doubt 💯💯💯
great custom bro !! question. Since you said to not paint over the finisher... shouldn't you have taken care of the small details before applying the finisher?
The problem is that I didn't wan't to get finisher on the elephant print, so I had to leave the tape on when I applied the finisher. The details that I painted after the fact are so small, that it shouldn't be a problem. But yes, ideally you want to put on the finisher after all the paint has been laid down.
Would you add duller in with the paint and finisher, or just the finisher?
I think adding it to the finisher is all you need to do with the matte black paint.
You just save my life lol, I almost gave up on finding a pair simply because I wear Sz 14 smh 🤦🏾♂️; thanks bro
Glad I could help! Let me know how the custom goes!
Finally I can have a BC3 with the (almost) correct toebox
Probably the closest we’re gonna get lol.
Sold. Came here specifically to confirm im converting mines into the Black cement for a fraction of the cost. Might even double up on a pair for a future custom. Hate how super Red the shoe was.
you can custom some 3's to make white cements too.
Yeah the Angelus matte finisher is only matte, compared to their other finishers. Learned that the hard way. Get a can of KRYLON matte finish spray. Angelus deglazer is basically just acetone and those little bottles go fast because it evaporates when it’s open. So just get a bit can of acetone. It can also be helpful to use a light sand paper on the shoe after you deglaze, will help the paint really grip the leather and reduce potential cracking
Lastly, better safe than sorry, but if you’re careful and have a steady hand you don’t have to do that much taping
Awesome video, great idea, super easy custom!
I actually just ordered some duller. Hoping I can just add some to my remaining finisher and apply that. I definitely DO NOT have a steady hand though. Hence the insane amount of tape 😂 Thanks for watching!
Sole Vice lol you did a good job taping for sure. Customizing sneakers is 90% taping and 10% painting 😆 that duller should help, in the future using less of the finish will help too. It look like you might have gone a little heavy. It’s still comes out glossier than matte, but the thinner the layer the better. Look into the krylon spray too if customs is something your gonna continue with. Sometimes I use Angelus finish, sometimes krylon, depends on the shoe but it’s a super nice matte.
Thanks for the info man. I'll probably go that route if I end up doing another custom.
What grit sandpaper would you recommend?
You have to shake the bottle before you add the matte finish.
These look great but why people can’t duplicate what the factory do? In terms of cracking and so forth? Are they using a different paint or different process when painting?
Not sure what cracking you’re referring to.
@@SoleVice nooooo not on your pair. You killed these. I’m talking about long term. I’ve seen customs that crack in the creases. Then you have to repaint because spot painting doesn’t look good.
No you killed these my guy. Just ordered a pair of these cement 3’s. You got me thinking about turning them in blacks.
Oh I get what you’re saying. Yeah I’m sure the manufacturers have higher quality paint and better environments to paint in that make the curing process better.
Shouldn’t I be about to just dye the red leather uppers black instead of paint ?
How much for doing these customs I'd like to send my pair. Cause ik I will fuck it up if I painted.
I would maybe consider doing it for $200 + shipping to and from.
I’m doing this now bro to save money
Thanks man
how’s the custom black cement now?
Can you follow these same steps if you’re painting them in white?
Yeah it should still work. You may need to apply more coats of white to cover the red, but everything else should essentially be the same.
Can I send you my red cements?!? Lol man those came out amazing
Lol just stuff a hundo in each shoe and you got yourself a deal😂😂😂
Do the paint last, if you wear these regularely? Awesome idea btw!
I have only worn them once so far. I wanted to repaint them to get rid of the shine. I just did that so I’ll be wearing them more.
@@SoleVice don't have to repaint , krylon matte finish spray is your best friend lol
Do you mix the duller and finisher together? And then apply it as the final coat?
Yep! It just takes a tiny bit of duller.
@@SoleVice I'm doing my customs when my red cements arrive in the mail next week.
Do you think my shoes will be okay if I just use the krylon matte finish spray as a protective coat and to get rid of the extra shine?
I think it would be okay, but without trying it I can’t say for sure. I feel like you’ll get a more even coverage by painting on the final coat though.
@@SoleVice Update: did my first custom paint job last night for the BC3. Came out super clean and matte look. I mixed a little duller with the flat black paint and it came out with no shine on the show and the duller/matte gave it a nice dullness too. Think I'll be painting the inner parts of the show with a toothpick.
Nice! I’m glad it went well!
Jesus christ these look 10 times better than the actual 2018 black cement release lol..great vid
Thank you🙏🏼
Will black leather paint be fine ?
Im sure that will work. Different paint has different amounts of shine, so I would try for a matte finish paint.
these look phenomenal! how has the paint been holding up?
So far so good. I’ve only worn them once though because I need to do one final coat to reduce shine. Just haven’t gotten around to it yet 🤷🏻♂️
I had a bad experience with doing something similar with my Stealth Grey 3 in the end they came out horribly the black angelus paint wouldn’t bond to the suede properly
I did everything wrong.
And always wished I left them alone 😂
Yeah man painting suede is a whole different ball game 😂
why would you think using paint on suede was a good idea lol
@@yungtooli it was Dye not paint
But I wouldn’t try it again either way.
@@RobPGamerVaper ah
Spider-Man obtaining the symbiote >>
Great video! Hope your wife is doing well
Dude...you BODIED this, especially for a 1st effort
Thanks bro 🙏🏼 you catch the LP I’ve got to my left?👀
The reason it may be shiny with a matte finisher is because that finisher needs to be very even and light so often appears shiny when not applied extremely delicately with a paintbrush or it’s easy to do with an airbrush
That makes sense. I wanted to use an airbrush but it didn’t seem worth it for one custom. Kinda wish I had picked it up now haha.
@@SoleVice yh same happened with me
So I did this. Only thing I did different was use acetone instead of the prep/deglazer. I applied 4 coats of black paint with 2 coats of matte finisher. All angelus brand products. One thing I would do differently is to heat/warm forefoot and crease it and then maybe stuff the forefoot to stretch the leather. After a few wears, the leather stretched and crack the leather. Just look out for that. Had to retouch the shoe. But overall pretty happy. Message me if you want for more details.
Thanks for the info! I’ll keep that in mind for sure.
100% you should mix angelus duller with all paints used on sneakers as well as the finisher (19:00)
Wh
🤣😅😂😂🤣 He made the Jordan 3 look like a dress shoe it's so shiny
It's nice until someone uses paint remover then finds out it's not the real Black cements LMAO
For most people, it isn’t about having the “real” pair. I already have the 2018 release. The shape of the Red Cements is much closer to the original shape of the Jordan 3, so this custom results in a closer representation of the 1988 Black Cement 3. Anyone who is familiar with the 2018 release wouldn’t need paint remover to know that this pair isn’t “real”. The shape, elephant print height, and tongue gives them away immediately.
How to scam legally
Only a dumbass would think these were legit😂
Dope video, but you need to talk less and get to the point faster
You talk too much bro
I believe RUclips has a mute feature. Feel free to use it.
I’m all about everyone earning their coins. Bro I want my Red Cement 3s to look close to the OG Black Cement 3s as possible I’m in love with the lower cut of the elephant print. How much would you charge me for you to do this custom. What’s your email I’ll email you if that’s best.
Man I would love to do that for you, but I literally don't have the time. I still haven't even gone back to fix mine by adding duller to the top coat. Between my day job and making content for the channel, I don't have time for much else😂
