I hope all of you awesome people are having an excellent day.
They're chrome metal is very easy to scratch (with microfiller enamel primer BASE) , how do you protect that without using a clear coat that removes the whole metal effect
ooo excited for that chrome hack! I love good chrome! thank you!!:) beautiful golds!! glad your dog is doin good...cant wait to see him:)
I watch the Green Stuff World video and they went from no coverage to complete coverage in a blast from the airbrush. That makes sense because when you brush paint it you put on a very heavy coat and the paint flows into a uniform surface. Airbrushing on light even coats allows the paint to dry before it can start the flow effect. My 2 cents.
Mad glad i found your channel tbh best guy out there when it comes to this hobby im just starting so i dont even have a compressor and anything but some built gunpla and some tools looking forward to learning more here man
Must be something in the cure that gives the chrome shine. With the airbrush causing the alcohol to evaporate so quickly, the paint isn't curing normally. Great vid as always.
Maybe you're supposed to go at it super thick right from the 1st coat? To the point where it almost drips since when using a brush a thick coat is applied.
The last few vids have had me seeing what I need for Christmas, or wait till my Birthday. I really need get a place built for models.
Someone was getting good mirror results by airbrushing the brush version of their chrome, only used a few drops of their thinner from GSW, or as an experiment try Mr. Leveling Thinner 400.
GSW metal colors blew me away and quickly became some of my favorites. Again Rex, excellent vid. Looking forward to more vids👍
I need these, I recently started using green stuff world matte and gloss finishers and I am impressed
Just tried them out and had the same results with airbrushing them not as chrome as I would like,still a lovely paint. Watching the green stuff world video again they seem to have a really nice chrome effect when they airbrush it. So not really sure what's up with that.
Great stuff. Looking forward to the airbrush formula.
Bought this for myself the whole set and so glad you turned me on to it.🤘🤘🤘
As much as I was looking forward to this video after reading you community page, now that you showed some of their metal colors, am really looking forward to that ... even though they're lacquer. Great to hear Olly is doing fine. :)
Well that’s disappointing I have a set of these coming. GSW told me on their IG that these were both airbrush and brush on. When I asked what the difference was between this Chrome Metal and the other two versions (Mirror) they told me it was basically the same. Also I’ve had the best luck airbrushing their Mirror Chrome at 12-15 psi on heavy and wet. Any higher than 15 psi atomizes the paint on the surface and gives it a duller finish.
Those are very nice paints. One of the usual issues I find with gold paints is that they don't usually look gold, rather a gold colour but these look very much like your wedding ring when it was visible at the same time as a painted piece, so it's nice to know a brand has proper gold colours. Cheers old chap.
Thin the brush ons with Mr. Leveling Thinner 400 and apply very heavy and wet.
While you were brushing on the gold, I was thinking the same with the gold kit from a couple of weeks ago. This looks to be good for touch up on a PG strike freedom as well, quite a few golds in that kit.
I'm thinking the shine could come from a leveling agent of some kind. flat = shiny, bumpy = dull. Perhaps you didn't apply a thick enough layer with the airbrush to let it self level, or maybe the paint dries a tiny bit when applied by airbrush.
did you try applying a really heavy coat with the airbrush? Maybe several thin layers won't give the same effect either.
Awesome, I'm so happy you're gonna make more tests of these paints as they are quite widely avaliabale in Poland and I'm in a need of good metallics that are not too expensive - I make costumes and props so I go through a lot of paint 😬
Great brushed on finish so just have to wait for the AB range. Really good to see that you are going to review the Zurc chrome. The guys from Canberra Hobby Centre are really good to deal with and I hope you can try the other Zurc paints as there are many in the range.
i wonder how the sponge marble effect would work with the transparent paint ? maybe you could try that.
Very cool. I just ordered some last week. I ordered some of their. Teal filter colors too. Love GSW.
yes.. a big difference between the use of the airbrush vs the brush version... at the end of your demonstration, you show several other chrome paints..Did you try the Molotov version ? available in pencils and spray ? i used it and it is efficient
Wow, good for the inner frame.
Did you try thinner with Mr color lvling thinner that's what I think all my tamiya and Mr color aqueous paint with both are alcohol based and it works about a million times better that 90% iso let us know if it works
Yup and applied very heavy
Another GREAT vid, gotta' love Green Stuff!
Have you tried using Mr color leveling thinner? It works with tamiya which is also an alcohol based paint. Maybe it will help with the finish? Or use a lower air pressure?
I ordered the golds and they just arrived yesterday so Im sad now lol
Hi, in the demonstration made by gsw in their channel says in the comments that the paint is airbrush ready so it appears that there is no need for thinning them.
I love these videos! Especially for a novice like me just starting out there so informative!
Always great to have good brushed on metallic paints 👍
really thank you for all these amazing videos
Don't think it and use a heavy at coat and it will shine good using the airbrush. I found this out because I accidentally bought the wrong one
Another good video but again pls overlay the settings you use for psi, needle. I know you said them but that means rewatching over again to hear those settings…. But glad you finally have that plated gold look
Hello Thanks for sharing. So can I get the same performance with a very cheap airbrush?
Sure just lower the psi to 15
@@barbatosrex9473 thx
I just got this. I try to hand paint 2 small pieces, one with thicker and the other with thinner paint. Looks like only thin paint can achieve shinny chrome look. The thicker one looks kinda dull.
OK. I bought the entire set, including two AIRBRUSH Chromes. Did little heavy test patches. They look awesome! Now, my problem. As usual, the paints company gives us little to go on. I don't even know what they are? Acrylic, alcohol acrylic, enamel, laquer? What do I need to thin these puppies to airbrush them. And NOT kill the shine? And what to use to seal them, or is that even needed? Again, without killing the shine. Aquagloss is near impossible to purchase .Have E7, and Gauzy, as well as micro gloss. I am gonna need some AWESOME copper and brass. These have all the signs of being great. Thanks for the review! Cheers
Well I know these are alcohol based. What to top coat them with is another story. An acrylic I'm guessing like a clear floor polish
For a brushed on paint out of the bottle, this is damn tempting. Although the large flat area issue is a consideration.
Very nice, looks to be the same exact shades as their metal pigment powders which I've been impressed by, and I'm always looking for a nice champagne sorta silver.
Have you tried barnish on top of the airbrushed spoons?
Keen to see your thoughts on Zurc paint! CHC are absolute legends.
Sunnyside sells 99% Isopropyl and there is also denatured alcohol and you could even try a mix of denatured alcohol and acetone.
Xylol/xylene may help slow the evaporation of the alcohol too
Gret video! What is the title of the video you mentioned you were going to make about a hack for chrome you read on Reddit? Thanks for all you do!
Would denatured alcohol work to thin these? You said the 91% running alcohol worked better than the lower percentage ones. Maybe pure alcohol would work?
That zurc chrome is awesome. You dont need to paint gloss black. Just paint it chrome straight up and it'll come out like a mirror
Im going to try this gold. Molotow doesnt make gold. You ever try molotow chrome? Try molotow chrome refill and spray it straight out of the bottle. No reduction. Dont dust it on. Spray one thick coat. Its amazing. I wish i could send you a picture of what i did. Dont touch it for 2 weeks though . It takes s while to dry. Youll dull it by touching it
I'm not sure what percentage it is but if 91% is good maybe alcohol fuel for a camp stove might be better. I don't know what the percentage is or what else is in it but it's a suggestion. I'd try it but I don't have this paint.
I found that the gold one dries way to fast on my pallet pure out of the bottle. I didn’t had that problem with any of the others tho
I think it`s dulling the paint because non technical IPA have a little water content, time ago I tried mr Hobby leveling thinner with a little retarder to thin the non airbrush version of GSW chrome paint, and shine very nicely.
Looks to me like it's drying too fast when airbrushed, thus the metallic pigments are not rising to the top like they do when brushed on. I may be way off base. I want to do some experimenting of my own with them. Exceptional prices on the paint products. Postage isn't terribly bad either. Thanks much for the introduction to the chrome line. I've used their metallic paints brushed on in the past and like them. Very similar to Vallejo IMO.
I wonder if really thinning it down with isopropyl like you did with the Mr. Hobby metallic will give them more of a mirrored chrome effect?
I am desperate for an answer to my question. On the chrome silver paint it's going on a satin silver. Does it dry to chrome? I brushed it on.
Excellent, many thanks, keep up the good work.
Did you have to prime the surface before applying the paint on?
Well, admittedly, GSW do say that they don't recommend using it on large surfaces, so those results kinda make sense. Also, did you try reducing it with ethanol/denatured alcohol? Their site says to *clean it* with alcohol, but makes no mention of reduction methods.
I like the Green Stuff World but if you as an individual are ordering it directly from the web store, the shipping and handling is sad to see. When I tried to order the dipping inks? The s&h was $80, almost more than the dipping inks themselves.
Looks great. I’d like to see it on a car body! Thanks for sharing. 😎🇨🇦
I am near a hobbyist shop in the UK that stock Green Stuff paints, I'd be happy to give you their details if you need some mailed out to you. Great video boss!
Cool colors. Great test. Can you put clear over them? It probably doesn't make any difference, but I always use 99% isopropyl alcohol. I get it on amazon.
You always have great reviews thanks so much
Bought the gold chrome and it didnt give the gild plated effect like yours, why!?!??
how do you topcoat them?
Thanks for the video! We share.
Thanks
How does it do on lead material, I want shiny on my lead jig and see if I can seal it.
Great video
It should at down on lead okay. The company recommends not using anything on top of it
Have you tried the Mr Hobby Rapid Thinner with these paints and if so how does it work?
I'm concerned if the paint will react with certain plastics used throughout a Gundam. Is there a type of plastic we should avoid when applying this paint?
Zurc Paints are from the Philippines...Great paints ..great review.
Do you think this stuff will hold up outside in rainy weather?
It won't unfortunately
@@barbatosrex9473 Anyway recommendations? I'm trying to get my plastic emblems from silver to gold on my classic car. And I live in Seattle so it rains fairly often..
I tried some of these brush on paints, but the colours other than basic chrome metal don't seem to have the same mirror effect. Does anyone know why that might be?
I’ve seen ppl on here using the brush version of regular chrome via airbrush and getting a mirror effect.
I contacted a Green World about a thinner for the metal chrome paint and they told me don’t thin it cause it could effect the look of the paint
I have been using the Chrome Metal brush on from GSW and am well impressed with its appearnace, LOOKS great! However I find it gets easily blemished when handled. Is that the case with these new colors?
thanks!
Cool video Rex. I'm really interested in the paint review videos because you do a excellent job on them. Really helpful to me with what colors I may want. Can you please try the green stuff world liquid frost.
Was going to ask about Ollie.
Hey thanks for the video Barbatos ! I got these paints to go on a resin print prop and they look amazing!
I ran into an issue while using them though, maybe someone out there knows the answer?
The issue is the paints don't seem to dry/harden very well. I used a brush to paint them on a prop that was handled quite a bit. The top layer is tacky and soft, and you can easily leave a fingerprint in it, even 24 hrs after drying. The paint doesn't come off on you, or off of the prop, but the paint loses its luster. It's really noticeable on larger, flatter surfaces as well. Is there some kind of curing agent you're supposed to use with them?
If anyone knows...
Well they are alcohol based so maybe add a few drops to it as alcohol is a quick drying agent
Hope for a airbrush version.
Is it possible to mix them for a wider range of colors?
Yes they can be mixed
I hope they do an airbrush version of the bronze in particular.
Maybe you could of painted a spoon? May be something to do with large flat areas? Could of experimented and either confirmed or ommited that from the equasion by painting a brush,maybe? Saying that im just adding my 2cents,your a mile or 10 ahead of me in all this.
Great show
Where did u get the airbrush holder
In this video
Thanks
I MUST TRY THIS GREEN STUFF PAINTS!
Would it be possible to panel line with this?
Probably but it would need a black base color
@@barbatosrex9473 The kits I want to use it on are the black 30 Minutes Missions kits, they are primarily Black and Dark Grey. I figured an all black mech with brass panel lining would would look pretty cool.
Gsw them self sprayed them in the video they made, so i actully dont think they will do a airbrush version of them. Check out the video on the gsw channel
Very nice paints
Do you ever wet sand and polish after painting? Like with Godhand 8000 and higher? Curious if those chromes could be buffed into a shinier finish.
Are those paints working on citadell chaos black primer?
It works over any black
does anyone have any advice on a strong/flexible paint? I'm painting thin metal swords and a few times they have bent and the paint broke off in flakes. i used stynelrez black from badger as the under coat
I ordered the whole set before the video was over. It was under $30 with $10 shiping!
Since they are alcohol-based maybe they dry too fast when atomised? Did you try adding retarder when airbrushing or using something like mr leveling thinner?
I haven't yet but I plan on revisiting these to try that soon
@@barbatosrex9473 nifty, hope the results with airbrush get better :3 My local hobby store has those paints, but only the regular version and I'd like to also be able to airbrush them. BTW, did you see GSW true metal pigments? Sadly they don't have chrome but their golds, copper and brass look preeetty good :3
Another excellent video!
Does the paint leave brush marks?
Hey how you doing can you send me a link to this set of paints
Does anyone know how to "Protect" the paint once applied? Varnish and such will just fog or diminish the shine and I want to use it for miniatures but I want to protect it or not use it at all.
Alclad Aqua Gloss is your best bet. I did a full video on the best Gloss to protect chrome with
So I watched this video and started wondering why you were not getting the shine when airbrushing the paint without thinning. So I went on there site and saw they are ment to be Airbrushed as well as brushed. I watched there video on the paints and they are airbrushing these paints on test objects and getting the same shine as if they hand painted them. So I’m still wondering why you didn’t get the same results that get doing the same thing.
Great comparison between brush and airbrush. thumbs up and sub with full bell
Hey dose it have a heavy alcohol smell
You already change the filter after only, what, three months?
