  • A video on how I painted my Jordan Powder Blue 3 midsoles. I am getting my 3s reconstructed and I wanted an all white midsole.
    I used Angelus white acrylic leather paint and Princeton brushes purchased from AngelusDirect.com
    Here's a link to my midsole paint removal video:

    I’m trying to repaint the white mid-soles on my Nike air max plus TN is there anything that I should know before doing it?

    Depends on the color of the area if the color match then yes if not then no

    You should put a finisher on that to sealed it. and it is advisable specialy for beginners to put tapes on sides so that the paint won't be messy.

      Do you know of any brand names or what exactly I am looking for in a finisher? Like clear coat ? Thanks in advance

    how many coat do you use?
    and is there any other acrylic paint on grocery stores is safe for midsoles?angelus paint is a little bit expensive and hard to find in my country.
    so if i use basic acrylic paint that sells on many grocery store is it safe and will last long?

      If you’re going to spend the time and money painting them, I would recommend going with a respected company like Angelus who specialize in shoe paint. I’m sure there are other companies but when I did research at the time for this, Angelus kept popping up.

    since angelus is for leather and midsoles are rubber. my question is that is the angelus on rubber midsoles works well, sticks firm.and well just like factory finish/paint or product on leather stuff which the angelus is meant really for. will the paint on the rubber midsole chip, crack or scrape off when brushing it for cleaning the shoes when it gets dirty. PLEASE S.O.S, I BEEN LOOKING FOR ANSWER AND I REALLY REALLY NEED ANSWER.

    • @deejaybalance
      @deejaybalance  7 лет назад

      Valpuia Khiangte I've cleaned the midsoles on my customs using the Jason Markk cleaning brush and Angelus Easy Cleaner soap numerous times and the paint is still holding up. I'm sure after a few years of wear and tear that eventually the midsole paint will chip and crack and will need to be reapplied.

    • @deejaybalance
      @deejaybalance  7 лет назад

      Valpuia Khiangte I am not aware of one for rubber. This was also my first time painting midsoles so you might need to ask an expert.

      I've never dealt with painting over 3M before but I can imagine for the best results you would have to remove the 3M first before painting.

    • @deejaybalance
      @deejaybalance  8 лет назад +1

      I don't think you need to. I guess when it starts flaking due to age and wear then you can think about removing all the paint and repainting.
