I think you did a Fantastic job.... When I do a Cherry Apple Red... I always put a GOLD underneath... for some reason it makes the Metallic Red deepen...
The Dupli-color anodized paints are very nice! I have used them on models and they look real good! I use them to paint my fittings for engine details also!
My experience with the duplicolor adonizing paint for materials that are all ready chrome or polished is i use first duplicolor adhesion promoter and then i use the adonizing paint..i have found that if you wait 48hours you can polish the adonizing paint with any regular paint wax polish and it will bring out the affect of adonization better..after if you want you can clean it with regular dishwashing soap and clear coat it..looks spectacular..
@@Harly450 you don’t have to use chrome spray paint, they have a base coat you can spray it with first. Sticks really well and acts like a primer. But if you were gonna go with the chrome paint then yes, definitely primer it first.
You should have tried a thin coat over the chrome, A true experiment would involve at least two paint thicknesses. I am doing a blue guitar and a thin coat of blue over the chrome almost looks like it's back lighted it's so translucent.
mrgitarman I will agree with you. My experiment was just done on a whim for my friends in terrible conditions. I would love to do it again in a controlled environment. Thanks for your input.
Mike thank you very much for this video. You answered all of my questions from what base coat to use to would a Testors clear work on top. This is exactly what I was thinking of doing with my Johan 70 442. I want to replicate one of my all-time favorite Hot Wheels. Right down to the white stripes with blue stars. Since the Testors worked on the Dupli Color I think that is what I will use for the stripe paint too. Then blue star stickers and then Testors clear. I would love to have that hot wheel in my collection but considering the astronomical price of that particular model I decided to just make a 1:25th version! I hope your Nomad came out well and happy building.
These metal cast paints you can look at them like a candy paint in a sense because their a translucent paint. So the more layers you apply the darker the shade will be.
Quick tip, if you use something like VHT Cast Aluminium engine enamel (basically silver flake with clear) as a base coat, you end up with an amazing metallic almost candy like finish.
What do you mean by Silver Flake with clear? I want to do my cars outdoes side mirror caps! I want that look on the coke bootle. But what should I use as a base coat since the mirrors are plastic. Should I use a clear adhesion promoter then this VHT Cast Aluminum engine enamel next followed by the dupli color? Need any advice. Thank you.
You would get the annodized look if you used the Dupli-Color Ground Coat Anodized Coating instead of the universal chrome paint that you used. I tried it and it came out just the way I expected. If you really read the instructions on the red metalcast annodized you would see that they mentioned using the ground coat first, I got excellent results. Test It on the same coke bottle and compare it to the test you did here.....
I want to paint a helmet metallic orange, so do you recommend using the growing coat and then the orange metallic and completely ignore the silver chrome
Oh yea. The base coat is just to make it shine more. Light coats first of course. Dupli-color is a pretty hot paint. Might require some primer just as a protection layer.
I couldn't get the dupli-color here in the UK, but I managed to get the VHT version, I used it on one of my Sizzlers, and like you say it doesn't look particularly metallic or Spectraflame, but it did look really nice, pretty similar to what you got with the dupli-color, I have only used the purple so far, but I have a blue and a red, BTW I put down a base coat of VHT chrome, which again looks very much like the dupli-color, hardly what you'd call chrome, but very shiny non the less, about the best out of all the 'chrome' sprays I have found, only wish there was a cheap way too chrome plastic at home.
@@jesusmarquez9948 Ok so I had the same question and later found out. If its metal and its shiny or chrome just paint it. If its unpainted metal with no chrome or shiny pieces. Primer,Metal cast base coat and paint
Should have had two bottles. Painted one with both colors. And painted the second with just the red color. To see if the chrome was even necessary to get that same color. With the second color not having a transparency enhancer, or even reduced, I have my doubts you're seeing the chrome at all.
Oh yes, you're seeing the chrome. This is why they make an official silver undercoat to be used with these types of paints. But sure, I should have shown one plain just to see the difference.
mike reece i say go for it! I restoed a us custom firebird using this stuff. came out great! sorry, no pics. I used this red directly on the metal, no basecoat needed, just mist several coats try first on a junker to perfect your method. peace.
Did u paint the red on top of the chrome? Or just the red? Anyway thanks for sharing this. now I will save a lot of money by not going to the body shop.
@@MisterWealth I don't recall how many coats I used here but 3 or 4 would really do it. I did 7 coats a couple if times, and it worked,, but you're really risking wrinkling at that point.
Yeah that's good paint I used Dark Garnet red on my car with grey primer looks great the fender came out great too were did you get a big can of it all I could find were little cans like that chrome one .
Just a heads up guys....I did this exact paint and color on some accent pieces on my street bike and it turned out bad a$$, but now after about 1 year it has started to fade to a orange color from the sun and heat from the motor. I'm getting ready to re paint the pieces again but I'm going to use a real "candy red" from a car paint.
I want to do my mirror caps in my car. They are plastic. What should I use as a base coat to achieve this color? Should I use a adhesion promoter first? Then chrome? Then the dupli color? Thank you
I was thinking...what if you get the get nightshades tail light spray paint and spray it over bare metal? Would that work, its a translucent paint so would it give that anodized look?, I might try it out
Dante Hooks That is an absolutely brilliant idea im going to try this too, hopefully it turns out like a shadow chrome . I actually have almost a full can of it in my shed
So you used Metalcast anodized paint. A paint that is specifically formulated for adding color to polished or chromed smooth metal and you decided to test it on some rough plastic that you painted silver......? right then, well you should try it oon some actual chrome or something shiny you can see your reflection in. It will be a most beautiful Ruby
Well, actually it is also for what I did. Look into the product more. Dupli-color actually sells it's own shiny silver base coat in a can. Part of a two step system. It can be used on real chrome, but it's not at all just for real chrome. It's for anything that you want to look like this.
@@Toppervision1 well lad you keep telling yourself that. Course they will tell ya that. They want you buying more of it. I never said it was just for chrome.... I said metal or basically smooth reflective surfaces. Polished aluminum and glass will work. With glass its basically its not even metal looking paint its really a candy that you spray on metal and looks anodized. Also there is a silver glitter spray paint that looks exactly like a candy metal flake when used as a base layer.
So I'm trying to make a guitar this same color, would it hurt the wood to use auto paint? Also how would I go about making the black and the red as defined as possible? I saw using gold underneath the red is a good idea but I haven't seen it so I'm just not sure. Thanks!
No, I don't don't think automotive paint would do anything to wood. Also, you may want to put the other colors on top instead of under an anodized color. That way you're sure to see them well.
I have used the DupliColor chrome and Metalizer paints and DupliColor clear with great results on my 1938 Ford Custom van build. Look in my playlist and I used the same color for that build.
One question, I'm painting my bike's tank and tried as you did here first the chrome and when I applied the red it started to spit some big drops and it looked very very liquid so it actually started to run down and drip. I did shake the can and did everything according to the instructions. Is the paint that liquid or does it need more shaking than usual?
Noob question.... Why the chrome base? What does it do to the red? Is it recommended for all the other colors too? I'm looking to paint video game controllers in various colors. Thanks.
It's what gives it that reflective property. But read through the comments. You'll see that people also use the suggested Dupli-color silver base or other even more sparkly bases. It only really works with a transparent type of paint like this. You wouldn't be able to see it through a solid color. But be careful, if you mix brand names you might get a paint reaction like cracking or wrinkling.
Johnny Bravo The can says nothing about primer so I guess not. Just clean and lightly sand with 600 grit sandpaper. But I've had great results without even sanding.
Ok, well the chrome paint dried pretty fastbut it's not the kind of paint you want to touch often. The anodized paint definitely needs a few days or a week to cure properly.
unfortunately the duplicolor anodize paint is not near as good as the old VHT anodize paint, the duplicolor is so much harder to work with, i just had to buy a new can of blue even though i still had a half of can of the last blue i bought because no matter what i did the paint kept gumming up and spitting out in big droplets, the can wasn't even that old yet some of my 15 year old VHT paint still sprays fine....
Quadflopper101 We'll I think you can still get the VHT. I think I saw it at Autozone. I haven't tried it but I will based on what you're saying. Thanks.
you can't get shit in california, there's only a couple small areas in cali where you can still get enamel automotive paint in large quantity, i mean large like a whole gallon, and those places the prices have quadrupled. i really would like to know if you the VHT anodized paint is still available in other states, i assumed it was gone everywhere but it might just be banned in california, let me know if you really can still get it. i just had a thought, i wonder if it still the same formula as the old VHT, if the VHT is still the same formula as it used to be, compared to duplicolor the difference in the way it sprays, lays, and smells will be like night and day, if it's not then they've changed to a more environmentally safe fornula also, let me know we can compare label to the ones on the old cans....
Never thought I'd watch someone talk about a can of spray paint for 9 minutes, but I did
I think you did a Fantastic job....
When I do a Cherry Apple Red...
I always put a GOLD underneath...
for some reason it makes the Metallic Red
deepen...
Oooo, that's a great idea to put the gold underneath.
Good to know
matte gold or metallic gold?
@@EnzedDev I would assume metallic
Would you suggest I do the same for clear glass as well?
Excellent!! I've used them on bare metal.. no chrome needed!! They look like a jolly rancher! Very nice..and highly recommended
Best looking Coke bottle I seen in a while. Looks like those all work well together. Thanks for sharing!
I've never come across a single metallic spray paint that actually looks metallic
Krylon makes a pretty decent spray chrome. Ends up looking like an aged chrome piece.
@@ROOKTABULA Or you could spray matte black and rub graphite powder to get a chrome finish and then spray this on
Alclad 3
The anodized paints aren't supposed to look metallic as in metal flake. They simply give the color depth as opposed to sparkle.
The Dupli-color anodized paints are very nice! I have used them on models and they look real good! I use them to paint my fittings for engine details also!
Actually I'm remembering now that you did that. Yea, it's neat stuff.
do you just spray on or do you spray with the bottom coat dupli color?
Should've sprayed black primer then chrome then red
The exact video I needed to see, thanks for the upload.
Yep, it's the basic process. Glad to help.
1:14 Modern artists be like: "That'll be $10,000 please"
Used this in one of my iron man action figures- looks great! 👍👍
Do you know if it held up? Does it chip off because im trying to repaint a captain america shield.
I used this on my motorcycle plastics but used bright metallic gold for base coat. In the bright sun my red has a bronze/orange look.
Ooooo, that would be cool! I'm going to have to try that.
My experience with the duplicolor adonizing paint for materials that are all ready chrome or polished is i use first duplicolor adhesion promoter and then i use the adonizing paint..i have found that if you wait 48hours you can polish the adonizing paint with any regular paint wax polish and it will bring out the affect of adonization better..after if you want you can clean it with regular dishwashing soap and clear coat it..looks spectacular..
pellettron2240 Interesting. And that would basically mean that you wouldn't need a clear coat. I will try that.
Hi. What color of Duple color adhesion promote did your use? Clear? What works best to go along with the anodizing paint? Thank you.
How long after the adhesion promoter do you wait before spraying with the Anodizing? Thank you.

The chrome is not necessary. I painted the Vette with this over gray primer. Then a lot of clear and that is when it woke up!!!
Any vids or pics man?
Yeah I agree. The chrome doesn't work with anything. U can't even apply a clear coat over the chrome. It just turns grey.

I want to paint a helmet metallic orange, so do you recommend using the growing coat and then the orange metallic and completely ignore the silver chrome
Don Francisco The ground coat is chrome color. Apply ground coat and then the next day apply the color coat.
Don Francisco I've used the Duplicolor Metalcast system since 2006 and I highly recommend the Metalcast ground coat opposed to the chrome.
I used a white under coat... Looked Tip Top.... Happy days...
White under chrome? Or no chrome?
You missed the best part of this video.You did not show the application of how it looks being sprayed on.Overall looks fantastic good video.
So will metal cast paint adhere to plastic without a base coat? I'm thinking about doing some car peices
Oh yea. The base coat is just to make it shine more. Light coats first of course. Dupli-color is a pretty hot paint. Might require some primer just as a protection layer.
What about going over it with the Testors Red tail light tint? As that is a thinned out transparent candy in itself...

I paint my motorcycle rims with the purple anodized and was perfect went to do the frame and it’s pink not purple like wtf
You have any pix of the rims? I'm trying to do mine the same
Goob job! :) Keep it up!
is there actual metal in the paint?
No its clear with touch of color mixed in
