Hello, i love your work ! I wanna try something similar on my next bike build, would you be so kind and answer me some noob questions? 😅 1. Did you mixed the flakes with clear? And after flash of time -/- normal clear? 2. What's your nozzle size for the "flakes" - 1.6 ? And which "Brand" is the best ? And what size did you used? 3. What brand of "yellow candy etc." Do you use? And after candy no clear before taping...right? Thank you and keep up the amazing work 😊
Hey Lukas, and thanks for the kind words. Here we go! 1. I mixed the flakes in intercoat clear, a colorless binder that dries fast. After the last flake layer is laid down, give it a good 30min to 1hr before normal 2k clear. Notice that I added an extra coat of clear the next day after sanding it lightly, just so I could sand it again more agressivly before adding color/tape 😀 2. Here I used a 1.7 nozzle. It could have been bigger but it worked. Don’t worry about brand when spraying flakes, cheap is good. Although a 3M Accuspray is ideal, because it’s plastic and you can change the nozzles fast and throw them away when they’re done. 3. All candys are waterbased colors by Createx, Candy 2.0. They are tough, dry fast and you can tape over them as soon as they dry, so no need for a protective clear before taping. Cheers!
@@Turntwig wow, thanks for your answer. I have a sata 4000 with 1.6 nozzle, do you think it will Work too? Otherwise i will buy a nozzle setup (2.0) ? Thanks Turntwig
hey! awseome work and awesome vid! A question. Where do you buy your createx candy20? i saw that there is a dealer in Germany but could not see any prizing on the products. Best regards from Sweden Mats Lindström
@@Turntwig hej! Nej jag har inte fått ngt. Det försvann säkert på vägen. Men jag har fått tag på färg nu. Dock skulle jag behöva lite råd. Har du möjligtvis messenger?
love the work mind kind of thing, can i ask though if youre not clearing between layers did you not get lots of ridges from all the layers before final clearing? as ive had this issue before even with clearing inbetween and would like to knoe how you over come it? also what do you use as your interclear binder for flake carrier as ive always used 2k clear but its very costly.
james kilby hey man, glad you like it! Actually I’m not clearing at all between the candy layers, and sure enough, it creates ridges. One key thing is to keep the candy layers thin enough to avoid build up as much as it’s possible. Then you need to clear it with enough clear so you can sand the ridges down (wich I didn’t film..) and then lay about three coats of clear on top of that. Now every project and surface is different, so this is how I did on this one. When it comes to flake carrier, I prefer intercoat base, basically a colorless base that dries much faster than 2k clear. I’ve done that too, and it’s a pain in the butt 😁 Unless you use a flake buster, whole different game!
Cheers For the reply. Can you tell me what brand of jntercost base your using as when I try to explain to my local paint supplier they don't seem to understand me. Just tell me to use 2k clear or waterbase clear, which I tried but it was milky and not clear so ruined the flake effect
James Kilby well every paint brand seems to have their own, but one very good and known is House of Kolor’s SG-100. I happen to use Mipa (European brand) can’t remember what it’s called. But that’s also milky and dries flat and the bling only shows after final clear. Hope you get the right stuff 👌
I actually use the mipa wbc system now and I think 000 is their transparent base, but haven't tried that one after my experience with the max Meyer waterbase one which messed my job up. But if your sure the mipa comes out good then I may give it a go, as its got to be cheaper and quicker than 2k clear after every layer
I wanted to kindly remind you that I sent you a message regarding your video. Please see my previous message. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
So this is the first time any of your videos have popped up on my feed and that is amazing I'm not a fan of peanut tanks or tear drop tanks but wow that is gorgeous haven't looked through your other videos or anything but I am really praying you do more tanks and fenders that is beautiful
Nice work! Do you spray clear between your coats of candy? I have tried painting candy on top of previous layers and they seem to disappear. Never figured out what I did wrong. Even black (shadows)
Thanks! Hmm... sounds weird, but are you spraying candys from light to dark? If you don’t, the light colors won’t show up on the darker tones. But no, there is no need to clear between candys.
It didn’t get filmed, but I actually do this: sand the first clear coat over the flskes smooth, add a couple of clear coats on top of that AND sand that down before graphics 👍
That's amazing!!! How do you figure out your patterns? Is it a free hand kind of process? I just can't believe there's people out there this talented. Blows my mind!!!
Awwww maaaan, genius at work, genius at work. That was freaking amazing man, i was wondering how you would do it, but you make it look so easy. That was beautiful, a work of art. How did you know that was the custom paintwork i was looking for. It's like you're inside my head man. I'd love to buy that from you, but all i can afford is a rattle can paint job for my mustang fuel tank. Thanks for posting, you have given me food for thought. Awesome video man. I FREAKING LOVED IT. 😎👍👍👍
Someone with marginal experience in laying down masking tape could do what you did. The real artistry becomes evident if and when your patterns are absolutely symmetrical. God help you if and when you have to do a touch-up. That criticism aside, there is something to be said for this psychedelic scheme.
Suedzville Thanks! Yup, directly on top of Candy 2.0. There is 4030 added to the candys wich make them really tough, you can tape it as soon as it gets flat. I love it 👏
This os straight from the bottle because it’s Createx paint. I could have used concentrates and then i would have mixed it 20% with a transparent base/binder 👍
Came here to understand this painting since I had a Harley davidson Breakout customized with this kind of flake paint. So awesome work you did right there
If anyone is more interested in this subject a channel called Cubez legend has a great video on it that highly recommended check it out and support guys
How long do you let each layer dry before you put the next pinstripe tspe down. And how soon do you need to take the Pinstripe tspe off before you ruin the paint job
james brungardt Here, I gave it a good 20 min before putting the tape on. These dry very very fast and are really tough, so as soon as they turn flat, you’re good to go. But 20 just to be sure! Actually the first set of tapes sits on for a couple of days so the only worry is that it doesn’t lift in the really tight turns. ✌️

Holy cow! That may be one of the most beautiful things in the world!!

faizansaeed Thank you very much!!
I reckon that has made me want to buy a Harley.
Bernievids Do it. Let’s paint it 👍🏻
OK. I should probably ask if you are in Australia! If not I need to probably send you the tank. I’m serious if you are!
Bernievids Oh my, I’m on the other side of the globe, Finland. Nonetheless, I was serious!!
Quedo muy bonito el tanque bendiciones muy bueno sería aprender
Almost Paisley it's trippy. Would love to see a frame painted like this
Great work...but dont miss the 70s one bit
Wait just a damn minute here! It's not the 70's any more? Are you trying to freak me out, man?
413x398 sorry man
Absolutely beautiful brotha! Would love to see them on the bike. I'm mos def inspired.
BioMachinist thanks 🙏

That is one of the slickest paint jobs I've ever seen, well done brother..thanks for the vids..
Bad ass..!!!
I really like your paint job.
Esta muy bonito hoy dia cuanto cobra alguien por pintar eso mismo?

No problem!! A 1.6 setup could work with smaller flakes. Just remember to adjutate the spraygun so it won’t clog. Good luck man!!
Gorgeous work. What brand/type of clear do you use?
Regular 2pack Mipa. Cheap and good 👌🏻

WOW

Turntwig: "so which colour do you want?"
Customer: "yes"
Or...
Customer: ”I really like black and gray”
Me: ”Ok, I might have some ideas”...
😂
I liked this painting so much that I tried to do it on my helmet and it was good. Congratulations beautiful work you did.
I bet you would be good at 3D chess.

Todd Larsson thanks🙏 Hopefully there will be a new project coming up soon (worth doing a video of)!
@@Turntwig no problem man I give praise where it's deserved and you deserve it you're talented well I'll be looking for them that's for sure
Just painted a 65 impala u like those cars

So when you’re “leveling off the flake coat” you’re adding more clear coat until smooth instead of sanding?
It didn’t get filmed, but I actually do this: sand the first clear coat over the flskes smooth, add a couple of clear coats on top of that AND sand that down before graphics 👍
Thx much. I watched this video 40x I love the work. Gonna build off it. Appreciated
Yep. I definitely wanna listen to Mastadon now.
It probably can’t be done on a larger Harley. Do you want mine to see if it works?! ;)
I thought it looked amazing....then the clear coat!!!
Davy Pig 😂
That's amazing!!! How do you figure out your patterns? Is it a free hand kind of process? I just can't believe there's people out there this talented. Blows my mind!!!

that speeded up music souds like adsl
That -- is -- SIIIIIIIIIIICK!!! Beyond amazing. But would love to see the scoot these tins went on. Link?
what brand candy do you use i love the vibrance of it
jaf melara It’s Candy 2.0 by createx. Awesome stuff!
Do you pull the tape before or after it dries? Just curious
Vincent Vega I have to leave the tape all the way to the last color, so yes, after drying 👍
@@Turntwig Thanks for replying!!! Im a big fan of the 70's paint jobs!!!!
ID like to see that in blues
Realizing that my modem is just playing rock music very fast.
JUST AWESOME. With each layer, are you taping directly over the Candy 2.0 or are you using a mid clear over each color of candy?
Suedzville Thanks! Yup, directly on top of Candy 2.0. There is 4030 added to the candys wich make them really tough, you can tape it as soon as it gets flat. I love it 👏
Excelente
my hats off to you sir this is a dying art you are a true artist
Is it candy concentrate? Do you mix the candy with something (if so, how do you mix it?) or do you spray straight from the bottle?
This os straight from the bottle because it’s Createx paint. I could have used concentrates and then i would have mixed it 20% with a transparent base/binder 👍
@@Turntwig i have candy2o koncentrate and it says i have to mix it 3 to one. 3 parts Createx 4050 and 1 part candy concentrate
Or should i mix the candy concentrate different if im using a spot repair gun?
3 to 1 is airbrush mix but is it different for a bigger gun?
Sorry for all questions and thanks for all the answers 🤘🏼
That's what I'm Talking about old school Sexy......😎💪🤘....Congrats very..Nice......🔧👍
Paint GuN Express THANK YOU ✌️
You need a welding mask to look at that paintjob! Awesome Seventies look!
Hi, how are you doing so that the tape does not peel off the previous layers?
Wow I'm impressed with your work. Great paint job. I've learned from what you did I'm gonna try that at my friend's body shop. Nice work
Thanks! Have fun with the project!
The tank looks like Trumps hair.
Ed 😆
Holy sheets what's..... great job I never seen this Hard work bro ..👍🤘
Did you sand the clear coat before spraying the next coats?
Awesome job mate, you make it look so easy!!!
Slayer, god hates us all. awesome album choice :)

how long does the paint need to dry before removing the tape?
Satin clear coat would be cool. I like it bf clear coat
Henry Barton yep that’s what I thought too just before clear, but we were set on gloss clear anyway
@@Turntwig I understand that.
Nice work either way

@@Turntwig I tell ya its damn near impossible to watch this video while headbangin.. No idea how you can paint and headbang. Frikkin alien

can you tell me the paints you used i want to do on my bike
"WOW

Great job! How many layers of clear?
Too many 😁
Mmmm...rootbeer...
That looks great !
Awesome, i've painted a fuel tank time ago too, but didn't knew how to apply that level coat you did, what brand it is?
