Dude you are the “Bob Ross” of bike frame painting. Love watching your creative work!!

[@shannonkeller8003]

Your authenticity and humbleness shines! I’ve been a fan from pretty early on. I found you through your Jack Reacher leather jacket video trying to spruce up a sweet a55 1970’s red leather jacket my Grandfather gave me! Then you really started doing more bikes and I was hooked! Thank You!

[@oldshovel]

Lol 😂 that old video was so bad. I’ve learned a lot since.

[@jonmopar7917]

Im sitting here on a lazy Sunday morning, and then I see a new @oldshovel bike video. What a great start to the day!!

Awesome

[@robgerwig3151]

The thought of taking an orbital sander to my carbon bike gives me the heebie jeebies! 😮

[@markythegreat]

Anyone else thought he just bought the stickers from eBay…and then got mind blown by the super diligent masking tape, scan, software and print workflow for every sticker. So cool.

I'm a little late to the game, but the paint job looks great and I really appreciate you taking the time to explain the stencil / masking process!

[@russelldejesus4714]

I learned how to paint bikes with pre-cut stensils because of your videos. I really appreciate they way you share your knowledge. Keep up the great work! I'm a big fan from the Philippines. ❤️❤️

[@freakish2me]

Always impressed watching you do the vinyl layering. Looks dope!

[@szymonkowalski1059]

You are the most original youtuber I know. Keep the good work!

[@oldshovel]

Thanks

[@shannonbene7220]

Thank you for showing how you do your graphics and giving an update. I was thinking of just pulling images from the web and using those for various bike logos. I'm reconsidering that after watching this video and am wondering why creating the images in Illustrator might be a better way to go.

[@decentdad1160]

Ahh a TCX, my Niner RLT guess was close though.
Thank you for showing your decal method.
Also I’m sure you know this but it’s been awesome to witness the growth of smaller channels doing rebuilds that were inspired by you!
Keep it up!

[@oldshovel]

It is a fun hobby a lot of folks do. Fun stuff.

[@luisedaniellealfonso3282]

Wow the frame is so 😎

[@Nepbor]

Good video. At the beginnig, I see very rare the use of stickers one over other, but later, when remove the stickers after the painting, the result was amazing. For this reason, I sent my like 👍🏻

Gray and black, my favorite colors for a bike.

[@KAVMCCESQ]

Thank you for sharing as always. My next project is a Bianchi CF. I never stripped and painted CF so it was a useful tutorial, as such, for me.
Maybe you could add a Carbon Fibre strip and paint tutorial link in description for others to follow, all be it as you have said not necessarily a professional paint job. It's more than good enough for me 🙂

[@joaquinast]

You are the best, i have saw all your videos, geetings from Mexico. Great job.

Thanks my friend

[@thesausage351]

Man that was a sweet frame! I’ve just bought a Giant Ironman carbon fibre frame, and I’m hella excited, I’m old school and only bought my first alloy bike like 5 months ago, now I have this carbon fibre thing, I feel like it’s an F1 car. It’ll be a slow build, I have a few old school steel road frames in front of it and because there seems to be a bunch of them for sale, I have obviously bought 6 bikes and I’m also an idiot

[@secretdaisy6484]

Please do not sell yourself short. I'm a graduate of an art academy & also have restored some old cars with top pro paint jobs. I know a good paint job. I can't believe the quality of your work without an airbrush. You are a great painter! That bike looks great. Unfortunately, I preferred the original color which is a color I love and like it on a bike for visibility in traffic. I have several carbon fiber bikes because they smooth out the ride & help with my skeletal arthritis pain. I got Spinergy wheels which make a huge difference in smoothing out the road. You gotta do what you gotta do to be as comfortable as possible. For me it's not an option. I really like your work & enjoy your videos. 👍☮️🌞🚲

I noticed on some of your videos you reuse some of the spray can tips. You can always purchase new spray tips for the cans to get consistent layers onto your builds. Just a thought, love your videos🤙🏾

Really enjoyed your work again Old Shovel :) Just noticed that the paint is actually from London and their paint shades are named after London districts, eg. Whitechapel as well as other areas in Britain: Humber Bridge. Nice.

Wow amazing job ! How lang do you wait until you remove the stencils? Too long can lead too the paint will chip at the edges ?

Could you be so kind as to walk me thru the sand paper specs you’ve used? And any advise you can share to help me in obtaining a neat final result on my Habit? This is the first time I engage a project like this and I wouldn’t like to screw my bicycle up! Thank you and thumb up again for your video

I'm a hack at a lot of things but I've been wondering for a while why you don't do a relatively quick wet sand after peeling stencils to knock down/smooth out the edges of those transitions. Full disclosure: my last paint job was a mirror housing on a 260,000km Jetta of no consequence.

I love that final color. I always thought vinyl had a pretty strong adhesive. Do you use a special kind that peels off more easily?

[@gordonhenderson1965]

It was probably a vinyl masking sheet.
