After months of despair, I see a hope of life. Going to try this one, hope it will work😭

Thanks!

Thanks. Good info. But you repeat yourself an awful lot. It distracts from the flow of what you're doing and makes the video unnecessarily long.

What kind of foam are you testing- polystyrene, polyethylene etc? Chemistry is critical to what can be used, it's essential to specify.

I use xpf foam as well and I want to start spraying a primer with a gun from harbor freight but I need to learn ratios on water and paint mix for spray gun use. Have you tampered with this method?

You assembled a kit with a few modifications wow

is rustoreleum good sealer? i cannot find minwax polyurethane in my area

This is dope. Imagine installing a light tube at the base of this!? Let's go!

Amazingly effective!! you alone have saved the earth from multiple tons of CO2 my friend! Thanks!

I love you, wish this existed 10 years ago but am grateful to even see it now. ❤

While the spray poly seems to hold up fine on the smooth, finished exterior of the foam, if there are any scratches or gouges that expose loose interior foam, this eats it right up, and will leave your foam wrecked. Also, as others have mentioned, the aerosol is the main issue, not the poly itself. If you were to brush on poly, it would work great.

DUUUUUUUUUDE. I was about to waste money on buying 3d printed pillars from someone. This is AWESOME.

ALERT!………..ALERT!……………………THIS GUYS GO TO SPRAY MINWAX POLYURETHANE SATIN ABSOLUTELY MELTS FOAM IN 2023 ….MAYBE IT WORKED IN THE PAST ……NOW THE NEW POLYURETHANE SPRAY SATIN IS DIFFERENT MIXTURE…….DONT WAIST TIME AND MONEY$$$$$$ I DID AND IT MELTED THE FOAM……….THE SOLVENTS IN THIS SPRAY WILL MELT THE FOAM 100% ALWAYS TEST ON SCRAPS NEVER EVER BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU SEE OR HEAR FROM PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET…………………..TEST IT CAREFULLY FIRST! THIS WILL SAVE YOUR PROJECT FROM TOTAL DISASTER!

if you cover wires with mounting tape and paint it black you get better articulation and it looks great

Will you do a aura effect from dragon ball

You talk too much. Too much unnecessary info to make video longer.

are they all synthetic?

how about using liquor thinner? I know it smells.

If I hear one more youtuber say "Modge Podge"...!!!

Does the mod podge (the non- aerosol one) make the foam hard? Im looking for something that will seal and harden the foam

Can we do the same thing but with water instead of vinegar ?

Using this as reference for my minis. Thank you for the tutorial!

This is good information, but how hard are the coatings?

Most of the time, it's the solvents (paint thinners) that are added to spray paints that is damaging foam. When you spray it from a longer distance, there's more time for those thinning solvents to evaporate in the air before it lands on your project. A warm water bath also helps the solvents evaporate into the air faster. Obviously if you're working on something that is detailed, you might need a sealer, but if you're trying to disguise exposed exterior xps from a duct... this is a different story. Spray paints require solvents to make them thin enough to be sprayable. Every single spray paint is different, even if two colors by the same maker. Some colors require more pigment powers which makes the paint thicker, and that means it will need more solvents to be sprayable. Obviously use a paint that's compatible with the foam you're using, just keep in mind that if it's in a can, it's going to have some paint thinners in it.

Thank you THANK you! For saving me $ome ca$h AND helping me break some bad habits Ala cleaning brushes (so I don’t have to do THIS again!) Very helpful!! 👊🏼🎨

being a new modeler we find means and methods hard to find, so we just stumble upon them, like this.. AND you can use minwax wipe on poly and rust-oleum oil base enamel directly on FOAM, we discovered this while painting an Arrow foam Corsair. I happened to get some oil base paints on the foam packing and realized that not only does it not dissolve the foam, it bonds very well to the foam. The cheap paint that came on the plane peeled off with some Blue tape after I had painted with some latex water base paints; We even poured some paint thinner on the foam and it pooled on the foam but Did Not Dissolve the foam. Yes, you can coat your Foam plane with oil base poly, paint etc, resulting in a Hard structural skin.

Is the surface also hardened by the Minwax fast drying Polyurethane ?

This is awesome - thanks for the tutorial! 🔥🔥🔥

Super helpful 💯💪🏽🖖🏽

Does this apply to foam boards too? Thanks

Does the minwax clear coat "harden" the foam surface as well?

Very useful and informative.

jump to 7:10 without watching any of the video, best choice ive ever made

Hope u doing well man!! Miss your content

👍👍👌👌

this man gonna just casually do a google search and not address that desktop wallpaper pimp master Luigi lolllll

This was so helpful thank you💙

What brand are you using?

I used another method and it worked! I had just let my brush soacking for several hours further instead of 3 hours as the video shows: czcams.com/video/EBl9P-AsSag/video.html

AWESOME

LOVE THIS! I BOUGHT AN ASHLAND HAUNTED HOUSE FROM MICHAELS, AND I'M GOING TO REPAINT IT'S BASIC "BLACK ORANGE WHITE BLUE" SCHEME INTO SOMETHING MAGICAL I HOPE

I'm confused about where to put the paper towel

Very insightful video thanks for sharing , you got yourself a new subscriber , p.s. love the Doble OO7 / star wars flute intro 🎶🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥gives it a Enhance vibe 💯

Video starts at 2:24

Looks amazing!! What type of paint did you use?

What sealer do you use for insulated foam like that one ??

Currently went to amazon using your link and they ranout of the proyect foam and they dont know when it. Will be resupply

Can you seal it after you painted a project. I already hand painted my character heads for Halloween..and I want to seal them.

Tnks alot but can this method be used to keep glue brush also clean? Like the cobblers glue brush?
