How to paint an aluminium bike frame, with Spray paint
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 08. 2024
- How to paint an aluminium bike frame? How to build a gravel bike? DIY? This second part is all about painting the aluminium bike frame, in this series of shows where I will renovate my aluminium commuter bike, DIY style, into a gravel bike. I do final preparations, I prime the frame, I mask and paint a really nice color scheme, I paint logos and graphics and I apply a nice gloss clear coat.
I'm an amateur and I build the bike based on the experiences and knowledge I have gained from doing and watching CZcams videos. If you have any questions, thought or alternativ solutions, get involved in the comment section below.

extremely well done video. great craftsmanship!
Thanks! I’ve developed quite a lot since this video. Feel free to check out my later videos and subscribe. 👌
Lovely job and it looks great. Nice. Oh, but after 20 mins that music was doing my head in!😂
Thanks! Hehe! Yes, i’ve developed quite a bit since. Check out my later work. 👌
well done. im painting my bike now and i watched many videos. i think i can get it done.
Great! So much fun. I have many videos on my channel about bike painting where i go into detail on the streps. So check them out. And thanks for watching. 👌
Amazing job bud! I’m a profesional painter, prayer I should say as I’m dealing with damaged surfaces at the properties, private and also business. If that was really your first painting project you did it very well :) I see that was 2 years ago so I can’t wait to see what you achieved right now:) Greetings from Poland.
Thank you so much. It was indeed my first frame and actually the first thing i ever sprayed with exception of test tube I painted to get a grip of the project.
Well, feel free to check out the rest of my projects on the channel, I just finished bike nr 6 a while ago. 👌
Looking forward to the next build!
Well executed! You have really made you homework before starting. 👍🏼
Thanks, and yes! Research and tests takes time, but you really get rewarded in the end! :)
Keep up the good work. Locking forward to see the end result.
Thanks, looking forward to present it!
I'm about to do the carbon fiber
crown on a suspension fork. I'm using DupliColor engine enamel ceramic, because I already have a can. I will use this video as a partial guide. Thanks. Like already mentioned, that 'music' made the video a bit hard to watch.
Yep, the music is what it is, Ive improved a lot since. So feel free to watch my other vids, a lot more inspiration and instruction there. 👌
Hiya ..I enjoyed this video very much. Impressive work. The paintjob looks fabulous. Thank you for sharing, it's truly inspiring. Cheers Johan.
Thanks! I’m very satisfied! New video out soon with another paintjob. Subscribe so you don’t miss it! 👍
Nice paintwork! Make it so! Klemm. 🤩
Thanks! Really satisfied! :)
I'm looking at gun paint at the moment ,very durable and is probably best choice if you want metallic colours ,a 2k clear matt coat will finish it off ,painted a good few bikes now ,results I'm pretty happy with
Yep, I’ve switched to spray guns since a while back and I love it. Mostly because it’s much more diverse in what you can do, the colors available and of course, for the 2k products, you only have to mix up what you will use and don’t have to waste a whole can. This was my first full paint job with paint guns and it turned out great. czcams.com/video/32g-f-Y9jc4/video.htmlsi=6KQSsY0lMkpkv2wc
Nice going! great tips and nice color setting!
Thanks!
Nice video! Keep it up
Thanks!
Fantastik work! Love the moose 👌🏻
Thank you!
Nice results:) It would be less time consuming to spray your second clear nice and wet 10-20 mins right after. Then wet sand and buff any dust etc during the final stage.
Thanks. Lets just say I have evolved since then. czcams.com/video/32g-f-Y9jc4/video.htmlsi=2azWJ8Kh544MINhz 😉👌
Good job
Thanks! 🤜💥🤛
Great job !😉👍
Thanks 🙏🏻
great job mate !
Thanks! Are you about to paint?
Offensichtlich lebst Du in Deutschland (die Lackdosen haben es verraten), - deshalb beeindruckt mich am meisten WIE GUT Deine englische (amerikanische?) Aussprache und Betonung ist! Die meisten deutschen CZcamsr haben einen furchtbaren deutschen Akzent.
Nein, ich lebe in Schweden. Die Spraydosen werden aus Deutschland gekauft. Aber Englisch ist nicht meine Muttersprache (und Deutsch auch nicht). Also vielen Dank.
Candy corn? 😅 Clean work.l tho 🤔
Cheers! 👌
Hi, great video. I'm doing a balance bike for my granddaughter. How do you get the stencils for your bike? I've been given a template from the bike manufacturer but i don't know how to turn it into a stencil/sticker for the bike? Any help you can give me? Regards Gill
I make the stencils myself and I sell them too. Just launched this site a few weeks ago. paintstencils.carrd.co/ so send me what you need and Ill get back too you. 👌
Super cooles Video. Gratuliere für die gute Arbeit. darf ich fragen was du für eine Plotter für die Beschriftung empfehlen würdest? Danke dir
Vielen dank. Ich verwende eine Silhouette Cameo 3. Seitdem habe ich viele Videos veröffentlicht, Sie können also gerne ein Abo abonnieren und weitere Videos ansehen. 👌
Great video! A few questions for you.
-how long did you wait between each paint coat?
-do you sand between paint coats?
-how long did you wait before you did your first clear coat?
Thanks!!
Thanks. For 2k products (primer and clear coat I waint at least 24 hours (preferably longer, especially if it’s humid and/or cold. I sand 2k primer and 2k clear coat (not the last coat), I don’t sand 1k base coat. Base coats (1k solvent based) usually cures within 2 hours, but check the can, and you can clear coat on top of it after that. If you want to be sure, wait one day. 👌
Thanks for the response! Very helpful. Instead of those two products you use to prep the bike, would you be able to just use a degreaser? I don’t think we have that product around here
@@user-sc8kk4zk8s yes, wax and grease remover. But what I use is regular lacquer thinner (NOT on 1k paint as it will dissolve it), and that’s available pretty much anywhere.
If you’re not done yet, I just dropped this. czcams.com/video/1uRI-L2ZBL4/video.htmlsi=0w1yqpnVJfaULO4F
Great job! Thanks for sharing the process in a very detailed way.
Thanks! I have a new video on a full bike paint project that will be released within a few weeks. So stay tuned! 👍
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT I will!
You we're clearly very very very very very very very Satisfied 😂🎉
I was! And of my more recent projects, even more so. 👌
I have a question :
I painted my bike with matte grey color and I want this matte effect , do I need to apply clearcoat?
Yes, a matt clear coat. The clear coat is a completely different kind of coat, designed to create a hard durable surface that withstand uv light, weather and scratches. You can choose between 1k and 2k clear coat. 1k is cheaper, but waker, 2k is tougher, but a bit more expensive.
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT thank you very much for the information!
And one more question, do you know why my spray splatters, spits and creates me a wild surface ?
@@Downtimelegion cant be sure, but a few possible reasons: the can and paint is cold. That makes the paint thicker and also the pressure in the can lower. Hence, the paint spit. Put the can in a bucket of hot water for 5-10 minutes before you paint. Another reason may be if the paint cap is used/dirty. A third, is there paint on your “trigger finger”? A common mistake is to “dipp” the trigger finger in from of the nozzle and that causes the paint to spit. So check that out and see if it helps. 👍
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT the can and cap is new and my trigger finger is clean so I suppose it's a temperature...didn't know about this thanks 🙏!!
@@Downtimelegion good luck! 👍
Was the corrosion removal with the initial sanding? Or is it presumed that there is no corrosion layer because the frame had paint? I am just learning about painting on aluminum.
Aluminum is really tricky. Most painter clean it with a degreaser and paint with etch primer or epoxy primer. There is a way that I learned after completing this frame. Ive made a video on base prepp here where I explain the methods. czcams.com/video/76VBieJ66PY/video.html
im gonna hear that damn song in my nightmares. :)
Haha! I think my later videos are a little bit more diverse when it comes to music, you should check them out. 😉👍
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT , i will. i enjoy your builds. i shouldve just said that. :)
@@mtobrien1 🙏🏻😊
Coolt! 👌
Thanks! :)
good work Bro , help me what does Mosse mean , I am also a lover of TRIms bikes
Thanks! 👌Moose is a big deer animal in the northern hemisphere. It’s on my head tube.
Could one use only the 2k primer and nothing more?
You like the green color I guess. Yes, you can spray clear coat directly on to it. But unless you like that particular color, you will be very limited as most primers only comes in one or two colors.
Great video, do you feel sore throat or any symptom after painting with that type of mask? Seem like every time im using this mask to paint my throat get sore after. Just wondering if im alone or not. Im using proper 3M paint mask fitted properly i dont know...
Thanks! I don’t have an issue with a sore throat but I did find that the mask in this video is a leaking quite a bit. I have replaced it with a new 3m mask and find it better. As I understand, replacing the filters on a regular basis is the best way to keep the function of the mask hi. 👍
any chance i could pull it off outside on a summer day?
Not in one day, but sure you can paint outside. Preferably on a calm, no wind day. Don’t paint in direct sunlight. 👌
Is it okay to use 1000 grit for sanding the first coat of primer before the 2nd coat application?
Yes, no problem.
Hey! Thanks for the video, very interesting and instructive. I am planning on spray painting a frame (actually 2 frames...) soon, and I was wondering how many spray cans you used for your frame? Especially for the 2K primer and clear coat: was one can enough for two layers? Or did you even have some paint left after those two layers? Thanks again!
Thanks! I would definetly recomand two cans of each, both primer and clear. You will not need it all, but as a beginner you will not be as effectiv with the paint as a pro would be. I used two of each. You do two layers and if you end up short it can ruin your work. If you have two frames and do them at the same time you would probably make it with three. The 2K cans are useless after 48 hours so even if you have some left, its no use.I have another video where I paint a carbon frame out, so check that out as well, hopefully som more tips and trix there. Good luck! czcams.com/video/VgObKuVqcDo/video.html
Hello friend.. I have already painted 4 frames, and I have used the same spray cans, and the same thing always happens to me with the vynil... the glue or residue sticks to the base paint... what substance do you use to remove the glue?
I've been trouble shooting this video is the result: czcams.com/video/YuLc7yfZw3g/video.html
Hello, First of all thank you for the video and great job! I have a question about the primer, do you use the same one for the frame and the fork? Because the fork seems to be carbon? thank you for your reply
Thanks! No, the wash primer (etch primer) is for metal only. But you can use en epoxy primer for both. Check out this video for a more details, check out this video. czcams.com/video/76VBieJ66PY/video.html
one question, do you sand the frame between paint and clear coat?
Nope! The clear coat will stick well on the paint, so no need. You might actually end up hurting the pain job. What I do though is that I sand the the first layer of clear coat. Thats to smoothen out edges on the logos and graphics, and any other uneven parts. :)
What are you painting/building?
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT awesome thanks! I ask because I could not find exactly this info anywhere else and after sanding the first layer of paint it did not look like I could apply a clear coat on it, now I'm waiting for the second layer of paint to cure and then apply the clear coat. thanks!
@@andres-gu8yu sounds about right. If/when you sand in between layers of clear coat, the surface will bee a bit foggy/matte and thats fine. The second layer will fill it out and make it shiny. 👍
considering to do my own bike - was wondering about the graphicks. how are thei being done
have got some kind of laser cutter?
Nice. The cutting is done with a razor blade that is mounted in the cutting machine. If you only plan to paint one bike/thing than it’s quite an expensive tool (from approximately 300 USD) but very useful if you like to paint or do different kind of craft. Stencils are also available to buy. You will be more limited but it will only set you back a few $.
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT ok - we do have some advertisment agencies they are able to cut out any sticker on a transparent foil - strictly technical question - u stick it / the negative image / on the grey paint and spray it with orange - what about the glue on the sticker - damaging of the paint when getting rid of the residues - or any other issues - maybe dumb questions but Im so hesitant to do i myslef - and I want lines and maybe other decorative stuff on the frame . anyway, thanks for ur answer and time
@@valentinszabo4331 check out this video: czcams.com/video/YuLc7yfZw3g/video.html
The vinyl you need is a low tack stencil foil (you can find links in the description of the video i linked). With good paint it leaves no residue.
You really need that etching primer? I'd take it for steel frames and the 2k acrylic for alu and carbon... imo
Well, it works great, no chipping or problems 2 years after. However, nowday i mostly use epoxy primer on aluminium, but after Iv've scuffed the whole frame with ammonia to remove the aluminum oxidation.
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT Yep, the oxidation has to be removed... Sorry, I meant epoxy primer. Well, I haven't any experience with the method you did before, so that was more of a question ;)
Good to hear there are no problems after. I gotta try that on another bike! Good inspiration!
@@PBLCDMND this is how I did it on the latest aluminium bike I painted. czcams.com/video/sPuO4f4Yoao/video.htmlsi=RjgP6TsslQNdrgp_
Any alternative to maxspray it's available from where I'm .
I’ve only used the Maxspray, but any 2k epoxy spray shold to it. Wher do you you live?
Great video. The music was too loud and mind numbing after a short time. Only mention for editing of your future videos. Wishing you best on your CZcams channel
Thanks. Well, this was my second video ever on the channel and I have evolved quite a lot since, both in the craftsmanship of painting and in the art of video making. Check out my latest video and see if you can see the difference. 😉👌
Hi, were do you get the name stickers?
Design and cut them myself in my Silhouette Cameo vinyl cutter (see link in description). But google vinyl stencils and you can find people who can do it for you. 👌
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT great thanks !!
Tänkte spraya min cykel i någon grön färg. Montana har ett gäng olika. Skulle du säga att Manila green ser ut som i videon även i verkligheten?
Lite svårt att säga eftersom att oliks skärmar/displayer har olika färgtoner. Men på min Iphone skulle jag säga att den är väldigt lik verkligen. 👍
Jag är dock mer och mer skeptisk till Montanas färger. Jag har haft en del problem med att det fastnar limmrester från maskeringstejp och stencilvinylen. Har inte haft samma problem med andra märken. Går själv mer och mer mot bilfärg där du har hela RAL-systemet att välja på. De är lire dyrare men jag upplever en kvalitetsskillnad. Men om du inte ska maska eller så är Montana helt ok. 👍
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT Tackar, ska kolla på en iPhone senare.
Detta är mitt första cykelprojekt (single speed av gammal racer) och inget ska maskas så jag tänkte testa Montana men med samma klarlack som du använder. Vill inte lägga för mycket pengar på första projektet.
@@user-em9xr3gc2q låter sunt. Lycka till och fråga gärna om det är något annat. Har en del videos om olika steg så prenumerera gärna och kolla in resten. 👍
can I use a spray paint that is 2 in 1
Never seen, explain? What brand ans what ”two” is it?
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT like a black spray paint that is mix in with primer
@@derekford7230 well, I prefer the 2K epoxy primers for maximum duration and adhesion. A mix will always be a compromise. If its an expensive/premium bike frame I would not cut corners in that way. If it’s a more “simple” job that you don’t want to spend to much time and money on, then go ahead. 👍
@@derekford7230 In this video, I go through the base prep: czcams.com/video/76VBieJ66PY/video.html 👍

This job of painting a bicycle frame is time consuming and costly I would not attempt to paint a bicycle frame myself no way.
Well, yes, this is not a business but a hobby. 👌
The music is so f'in annoying, I want to tear my hear out lol
Haha! One of my first videos, i have improved. 😉👌

You didn't show the completed bike? Why have I been watching for 1/2 hour ? That's a nice ...frame. It will be a functioning bike, right?
That was part 2/3. check out the final build here: czcams.com/video/UQIkdympOUM/video.html

Why not etch primer?
@@ifell3 wash and etch primers are the same thing. 👍
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT oh right, cheers!!
@@ifell3 cheers! 👍
i already posted a question but where did you get the negative stickers
Always wear full body cover and goggles. Spray paint gets inside your body through your eyes.
Agree, I Wear a full protction now, as you can see in my more recent videos. 👌
You could have literally dropped off the bike to get professionally powder coated for the money you spend on all the products
Why would I do that? Not very DIY.
Hi, how long did you leave it to cure before you did assembly?
A few weeks, not because it was needed but because I didn’t have time to start earlier. But I would let it cure for a week so the clear coat is completely dry. You can start after 24h but the clear can be a bit soft by then and easier to scratch.
@@MYnextDIYbikePROJECT Thanks, like i thought so, it's been a week so seems like a good time to build :D Again thanks for the tips, keep it up.
@@milanbabic92 enjoy the build! 👍
