  • Spay Paints: Rustoleum Pro, Valspar, ColorPlace, Krylon, Sherwin Williams, Rustoleum 2X, Majic Paints and Seymour. The spray paints were tested on a vehicle and on metal panels and then compared for chip resistance, paint fade over an entire year, scratch resistance, and rust blocking. I purchased all of the products tested to ensure an unbiased review. So, thank you for supporting the channel!

    I spend a fortune on paints every year for my business and have tried everything on the market. In my experience, Rustolium has always given me the best results because it covers so evenly and predictably. Valspar has given me nothing but headaches and often take twice as much paint to achieve the same smooth coverage that Rustolium gives. Great video as always, Todd.

Companies like German Montana , Spanish Montana , ironlak and German molotow, my opinion the best . Also comes in tons of colors and can change the tips for different sizes !

It hasn’t flaked anywhere or even faded at all on my winter truck that sees salt every winter. By far the best spray paint I’ve ever used. There may be slightly better ones out there, but they’re much more expensive and not really worth it.

    2K paint would be an interesting addition. It is made for automotive and is actually 2 part paint like professional quality paints are. The hardener is inside the can and you have a limited working time once you activate it before it chemically cures inside the can.
    Testing different high temp paints for grills or exhaust components would be a cool test too. Also different wood finishes.

      I've professionally painted items and Duplicolor/Duplicolor high temp were the best paints. They always went down really smooth and were more durable.

    @bpark10001 Před 2 lety +498

    You need to understand the chemistry of the paints. For example, Krylon is a "lacquer" type paint. It sets by a solvent evaporating. Its plus is the ability to accept recoats, YEARS after the initial coat, the repaired area blending well with the old. It can be readily removed with lacquer thinner. The Rustoleum paint is an "oil" paint. It initially dries by solvent evaporation, but then by chemical oxidation of the oil base. That chemical reaction is slow. It is not soluble in its own thinner after it sets. It is more difficult to repair. Note the paints that say "re-coat within (some short time), or after (insert longer time here) are of this type. BEWARE! My experience is that after that "short time" has expired & you need to recoat, YOU ARE SCREWED! Even if it's 5 years! The dried paint film will absorb the solvent from the newly-applied paint, swell, & WRINKLE, NO MATTER HOW LONG YOU WAIT! This does not happen with the solvent-type paints because the solvent re-dissolves the old paint. The oil-type paints can't dissolve because of the chemical reaction. I noted that one of the paints mentioned (Workday) mentions "alkyd" on the label. Alkyd is a special oil base & a chemical nightmare. It is not compatible with ANYTHING. There better not be any old paint, stain, or solvents present! It is either the best paint or the worst. You get ONE CHANCE. I would beware on anything other then metal, & ONLY for never-painted metal.
    You mention nothing about coverage. The most expensive pigments are red & purple. The "cheap" paints are watered down. You will need 3 cans of Colorplace (or the like) to cover as much as one can of Krylon, even for black.
    I find Krylon to be the most useful for general-purpose painting (garden gargoyles, Halloween decorations, etc.) It is available in insane array of colors, both flat, semi-gloss, & gloss. It will spray & coat when temperature is near freezing as long as there is no condensation. If the can clogs, you can remove the tip & pour a little lacquer thinner on the top of the can. Rust-oleum is useful for metal (traces of oil on the metal have less effect on interfering with adhesion). It is more persnickety to apply. It is not available in as many colors.
    For plastics that the paint solvent "attacks" the plastic (such as polystyrene), the adhesion is awesome. For the rest, FORGET IT. I have drip irrigation regulators for different flow rates. The manufacturer makes them all the same color! So I paint them color codes for the flow rate (& the paint flakes off). Paint adheres better if they have weathered for a couple of years. Many plastics are contaminated with silicone mold-release. "If there is ONE ATOM of that stuff around", the paint will flake off & may even "fish-eye"!
    Back in the 1980's, Sears sold a paint called "gutter grip" for "rain gutters in disastrous condition". It was a pale yellow-green "rubbery" paint (like rubber cement). You can paint this stuff on even polyethylene (NOTHING sticks to polyethylene!) as a primer & the top coat of any oil paint will STICK! This is no longer available, but I found a substitute primer: 3M tape primer (for helping tape stick to plastics, available on Amazon).
    The trouble with the tests & the paints is that the manufacturers keep "re-inventing" their paints & changing the formulas. You are never sure what you are getting! For example, Krylon makes "fusion" paints, supposedly for plastic. I find they don't adhere well to anything. The paints that claim they are also primers are not as good as a separate primer + paint. Some of the spray paints are even (latex) water-based! THEY ARE GARBAGE! If you THINK about water, these paints bubble up & run off like vomit (Been There Done That). It's like Coca-Cola, we need "classic" paints so we can make use of our experiences.
    I can also do without the new "improved" spray tips. They clog, & you can't switch out one from another working can when that happens. For any paint that is chemical hardening (such as Rust-oleum "oil" or alkyd), if you get clogged tip or clogged can, a century soak in solvent will do NOTHING. They keep re-inventing the spray tip connection (some are male, some female, some different diameters). It used to be all were the same (can, female, tip, male).

      @l00nybin Před 2 lety +36

      I was going to comment on the lacquer vs. enamel discrepancy, but you did most of it already.
      What I will add is this:
      Lacquer paints dry *from the bottom up* as the solvent carrier evaporates. Enamels dry *from the top down* which is why they are advertised as "dry to the touch after xx minutes" but only have a certain time window for recoating. After the initial film dries on top, the enamel must cure down to the substrate. Humidity affects this a lot. If you spray after the "recoat before" time, the new solvent makes that film wrinkle, which is when you will have to start over. The "recoat after 24/48hrs" bit only works in ideal humidity-controlled lab conditions. I have had enamel paints take almost 30 days to fully cure! Imagine ruining your son's pinewood derby car 3 days before the race because you gave him enamel to use and let him respray another coat because he wanted more gloss, 3 weeks after he initially painted it...
      That curing time is why you get a better reflective surface with enamels, though. It has more time to level out properly, and *once fully cured* will be a harder surface than lacquers.
      If it's something you think you will be retouching eventually, use lacquers.
