Thanks for putting all your hard work into testing these, we all really appreciate it. Gonna finish watching the full video later tonight.
Another great testing video. I've been hunting for a "blue" color for my R2D2 build and I am convinced that Candy Indigo on the silver base nails it. Alclad is such an awesome product. Gorgeous colors and spray so easily. Thanks again Barbatos Rex.
Hello is your R2D2 project a model kit or a scratch built project ???? If it's a kit which 1 is it if you don't mind me asking ???? Thank you for your time.
I want to thank you for doing this. Sometimes you have no idea just by looking at the bottle how these are going to turn out once you spray them or with different bases. I'm always recommending your channel during my streams.
Saw a video recently where someone dipped half of a clear 1/35 wine bottle in the red and after it dried dipped to whole bottle in the bottle green. Looked like a partially empty red wine bottle.
My guess is the candy bottle green would be for a similarity to a cola bottle.
Thank you
This video is a lifesaver...my god thank you for all the hardwork. This is incredibly useful!
I do agree the gold really makes the color pop. Maybe try them over some other golds for us? Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone, Thank you very much for doing this alclad review because I have used the typical chrome and metal colors which I love but haven't used the candy colors and have been hesitant about using them until I seen some real life reviews so THANK YOU. Love the channel and please keep em coming.
Love all the colours and shades possible with this line of candies. Thanks for all the hard work you do to put these videos together for us.
Thanks buddy, it does take a bit to out these together. So any acknowledgement to them is greatly appreciated 👍
A while a go. I bought the Alclad silver base expecting the chrome result because that was what was recommended. I'm glad I saw this before laying it down, but wish I saw it before buying it.
Those colors are amazing...... Alclad baby. Wishing you the best for 2022...
Hey man, i just wanna say thank you.
Everytime i'm checking for a new paint to create new stuff, youtube send me to your channel. I've litteraly watched hours of your videos and honestly, that's good to have a buddy like you to test these paint out for us. Feel like you are showing us the way.
Thank you mate, you are indeed a kind man.
Thank you for going through the full range. Always amazed at how people can chose good complimentary colors for two tone paint jobs on the full size cars. When you showed the difference between two coats and 4/5 coats I can see the potential for achieving nice two tone effects on models.
Happy New Year to you and yours.
Nice paints. Love the indigo the best! Happy New Year!
I'm really liking the look of Alclad stuff.
These testing videos are so informative and entertaining to watch, please, keep making more.
Many more to come 👍
I think there is going to be one green bottle hangin' on the wall very soon. That green is sensational over the alclad base, and also the blue looks great. Thanks for a great year of learning and have a fantastic 2022 and beyond.
Nice! That red candy over gold is candy apple red and then you just use candy black to do some shading. I think they have one of the best line ups of candy colors and if you want to go acrylic Createx also has a good selection.
I have the full Createx Candy line up here waiting for a full review
@@barbatosrex9473 That's awesome!
Great VDO Rex. Indigo, Electric Blue & Golden Yellow are my favorite colors.
Great candies and as always top notch video, happy new year and I know you are going to have more great content.
Now I know which candy paint I'll be using for my king Tut mask makeover!
👍👍👍
🙏🙏🙏
Happy New Year B. Rex. Hope you and your family had a great Christmas. Going through the line you painted ... the orange turned (at least on camera) to be an almost "burnt orange" which was really a great color. I'm partial to blue colors, and the violet was really gorgeous. After seeing all the results, all seems to look the best over the AlClad Chrome, except the reds. Great vid. Hopefully the new year brings you and your family the best.
Happy New Year Rex!
Indigo would look amazing on a Qubeley, thank you for these demo vids as always!
I really do appreciate the time and the knowledge that you put into your Videos..
Happy new year from Liverpool.. all the best for 2022! Great video , thankyou
Wow, those colors are amazing.
This has been very informative! Thank you!
You're welcome 👍
Happy 2nd of January already , from here in Australia
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for those awesome videos on the Alclad paints. Wished I’d seen that before WASTING my money on the AK paints!!
Alclad rules
Great video! The colors look amazing
All I have to say is wow those colours look great and a happy new year to you too
Ohhhh, these are gorgeous. I have no idea what I would use them for but I want all of them.
Thank you again for another awesome video, I am so glad you did the candy colours this really was an eye opener for me as I make steel roses and use the alcad chrome as the base and ruby red for the petals. Thanks to you I will now try some other candy colours for the petals...... keep up the fantastic work!!!!!!!!
Cheers Ric
Super awesome. Thanks for putting in the work. Saves us lots of time
Happy New Year - looking forward to 2022...keep up the great work!
Talk about lucky, Today I bought the Emerald Green and Candy Orange, and it's the first two you tested hahaha.
Fantastic video, man...I've bought a few of the Alclads after seeing some of your past videos and hearing you talk about them...love Alclads stuff. Can't wait to see the next one! Also, just got your paints as a Christmas present from my wife they look great!!
Brilliant video as always, bottle green is a description you would hear in the UK but maybe not in USA
Wow that’s a lot of different colors from 11. Love you showing several backgrounds for each 🙌 I don’t make models or miniature pieces.. I do make sippee cups & sports bottles up to 40oz. I’m wondering if a layer or two of resin over these candys would be an issue.. I want the candy to show through. Generally the resin work as a magnifying glass.. but I don’t want to run buy a whole set to find out it’s not gonna work out. These are so cool.. I want them all! That indigo 🤩, violet 🙌, and the orange & reds 👏👏. ~~I think I’m about to be in the spoon business 😂👌💯
Thanks B. Rex just found you a few days ago and I’m in love! All these tests are epic and your straight up no nonsense approach is delightful.
Happy New Year in 2022.. I just know this year is going to be amazing for everyone 💯💯💯
Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching 👍 happy new year
Hey barbatos Rex great video, and I don’t know if you remember me but thank you for suggesting to get the same airbrush that you are using in the vid, I got mine and it’s great keep up the vids coming they are so helpful happy new year bud
Great airbrush, you'll be happy with it. Happy new year to you and your family
@@barbatosrex9473 it just goes through paint so fast, is there anyway to reduce the amount of paint it goes through?
@@reylen3883 lower air pressure and don't pull as far back
@@barbatosrex9473 I will try it, thank you much for the help
That TS42 is a great base for most of them
Really appreciate all the effort you put into your videos to save us time on these differences. Excellent work and results. Thank You!
Hey! I really appreciate this! Thank you so much!
You're welcome buddy 👍
Awesome colors and review !!! Happy New Year !
Happy New Year buddy
It all depends on the piece/project being painted. But in general I prefer the Silvery Chrome colors apposed to the darker Browny black Chrome color. A color like Chrome Car Wheels I like the best.
Thanks for all the hard work
You do all the work so we can save time and money. You are extremely smart but also have a pleasant voice to listen to. I try to never miss a video. Your channel is the best. 🎉
Wow, such kind words. Thank you for that. It's much appreciated. Where are you located? Here in tge US?
Happy new year, Mr. Rex! As always, thanks for the thorough testing and showcase, it's a huge help to see what's out there and what's possible.
Wanted to get your opinion on a different use case, painting clear colors over clear plastics. Obviously, priming/sanding isn't an option here, is there anything I can do to help make sure the paint job is sturdy?
Do you want to paint a candy color over a clear piece?
@@barbatosrex9473 Yeah
Great review of the Alclad candy's. This really does help narrow down the color choice for my guitar. I thought I would be sold on the Cobalt blue over the Alclad chrome which looks great, but I like the look of the TS-42 base as well. I think the candy red over the gold really looks great, too bad the Mr Color scuffs too easily, but you suggested the Tamiya Gold so this is what I am going to try out first, I really like the effect of the gold highlight underneath.
I would go with the Tamiya Gold, then the candy and then I would gloss clear coat it to finish it off.
@@barbatosrex9473 So it's okay to use a clear coat over this paint?
@@theplayernkc yes. Alclad recommends their Aqua Gloss
@@barbatosrex9473 how resilient are the candy colors just over Chrome? I would think that as enamels they act as a protective clear in their own right...
Excellent vid, thanks for sharing!
Great video, been waiting for this one. Have an old dragon fire Revell kit that I want to try the green or blue on.
These paints will be perfect.
Happy New Year!
Nice video Love the Alclads. Over a Gold they become Candy Apple, Iron man is Candy Apple Red one of the most popular old school car colors especially on Vettes. Don't have the full line but have most of them and these paints not just the Candy colors are all top notch and easy to apply.
I used their Ruby Red on my Amazing Exia convert and it's so gorgeous. Such a gorgeous color. Granted I can't make my shit half as shiny and smooth as yours
Thank you for all your videos. Like to watch all of them. Have you tested 2k clear over the Alclad. I was curious if that would work??
I love youre 1 hour videos. Maybe the Alclads are a hybrid between laqcuer and enamel. I know there also something called Enamel lacquer. Have a happy new year Barbatos!
Off topic. I've searched but haven't found any videos describing the different uses for the different sized needles or how to determine what size needle you may have.
I purchased a Harbour Freight airbrush but it didn't say what size needle it was running...
Your videos are awesome and I appreciate your help.
👍🤜
True candy apple gold is over gold
Dang man, you went all out! I haven't yet decided to mess with candy stuff yet. I want to work on making my Gunpla old and worn looking. :)
I wanted to make a few suggestions while I was thinking about it. Can you make a video on sharpening nippers and other crafting blades? It's not something a lot of folks have touched on as far as I can tell and nippers can be expensive. Another thing is that Madworks has released some newer airbrushes (0.2mm, and the 0.5mm Airbrush). Their first one (the 0.3) seemed to be a solid airbrush and was curious about these others.
Anyway, keep up the great work! =)
Amazing results bud. I use the hot metal colors for my AN fittings, but these candy colors look great. Sad to see #9 gold doesn’t work. That’s my favorite gold out of all golds in lineup. My wife laughed when you pulled out Dspaie and I told her I needed to pick up their metallic line.😂 thanks for the great reviews. My 4 E’s vortex mixer is great!
That paint mixer is awesome. Great purchase. I will also be reviewing the Dspiae metal colors soon too
@@barbatosrex9473 that’ll be awesome. I want to pick them up any way. Can never have enough metal paint options. Plus the price is excellent.
Great way to start off rhe new year!!! Thanks a ton BR..By the way, where'd ya gwt that great lQQkin airbrush holder?? I need 5 of em LOL...Thanks again!
That thing is awesome, only problem is it cost $15!! I too wanted about 6 of them
@@barbatosrex9473 Who makes them if you remember? My first 5 months of 2022 will all be birthdays, hahaha
Already snagged a bottle of the ruby red based on an earlier video you did but now I need that indigo and cobalt. I agree that they should have used the chrome as the base. The silver base doesn’t do the colors any justice.
Another great review....this missing a couple of colors, thanks for pointing out Mega Hobby has them
Awesome, thanks!
you should try out some of the dram vials with glass droppers from discountvials. I use them to mix paint and store some solvent for easier and cleaner workflow. I got a pack of 40 and its awesome. Love your channel. Learned alot!
Can you do a video of some alclad candy's over the alclad Black chrome please 🙏
You gotta love Alclad I did order green stuff chrome for air brush and pass on revel chrome on e bay too much and shipping maybe Alclad is a winner especially all there colors
In another video I watched of yours you said you could buff out the fullness of alcalad. Would you do a video on that process? I’m not sure if I should hand buff or like a low powered rpm finger nail polisher.
I hand buff Alclad using a micro fiber cloth. Check out my latest chrome video, I buff it using that micro cloth towel
Awesome video!
Very good video , wished you included a clear coat mixed with mica powder as a base.
Your films are great. Is there anywhere image comparison of all spoons, you ever paint? Thats will be great help for your viewers
Maybe it means like glass bottle green like a beer bottle or something bc theyre glossy and dark?
Hi teacher, After the chrome and candy color, for heavy handling,,,,,,can be used an automotive Polyurethane clear to protect from scratches and UV rays?
Yes, I recommend a 2K Gloss Clear on top of these.. My new 2K Gloss Clear has already sold out 😀
Hello dude !! Another great color comparison video to start the year, I could ask you the favor if you can make a video of these "candy colors" especially the yellow and green tones, to "recreate" the shades of the transparent pieces that airplanes have as the F-16 or A6B Prowler (yellow-gold tones) and the F-117 (green-violet tone) and if you can compare them with other brands such as Mr. Hobby or Tamiya's Clear colors in order to know which one of all these it is more similar to the real plane, thank you very much and happy new year!
Great review. Thanks for the efforts. Great paints
I love the way the Alclad colors look, but I can't seem to lay down a nice, consistant glossy coat. I want to spray a candy blue on a trans am model, so I'm testing on a 1/48 f-15 wing. When I try to get a wet coat going, the paint seems to "stand up" on itself, and I get a very rough finish. What am I doing wrong?
Hey Rex, really appreciate your new videos. Try combining the clear yellow and clear red at around 3:1 to 4:1 ratio over chrome and you'll get the electroplated look similar to bandai's.
I wonder if the product would turn out different if you actually waited the amount of time it says to wait on the bottle.
Great video!
I am looking to build a 55 Chevy Bel Air and was thinking about an Alclad red candy with either Mr. Color rough silver or rough gold with Mr. Color champagne. Have you used the rough colors as a base?
What is the best alternative in acrylics for these candy? GSW? AK? Vallejo?...
Can you get this nice candy looking effect be shown on metal and other materials ?
Have you tried Zero Paints yet? They seem to have paints for cars & race teams (team color sets).
Sr. I really need you help again. I’m spraying the candy over the alclad chrome and it’s not working. It lift up the paint or dulls all the result. The only way it kind of works is if I spray hard like 25psi with a paasche needle 3 closed off almost, at a very close distance.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello! Does anyone know if i can use Alclad Aqua Gloss Clear over Alclad Candy Ruby Red Enamel. My plan is Primer > Alclad Black Gloss Base -> Alclad Chrome > Candy Ruby Red Enamel > then top coat it with Aqua Gloss Clear. Will this work? I know there's a Lacquer Red clear but unfortunately no on sells them here. Please help!
Absolutely you can
@@barbatosrex9473 Thank you very much! You're a lifesaver!
Since what's being done is not detailwork, i dont see why you would use a 0.2. The 0.5 is perfect.
I take it back maybe it is supposed to be a gold RED or Orange RED color.
Happy new year quick question where did you get that small pink gunpla?
That's a Gundam Converge mini kit. I got it at Hobby Lobby but most Gunpla places should have them
@@barbatosrex9473 thank you
Do you dry the candy’s in the dehydrator?
Great video. Thank you a lot. How tough is the paint it self. Will it scratch or get pulled off with tape?
Great video as always. Started stocking up on Alclads after this one. But what I really wanna know is more about your spray booth setup. Did you buy it or make it yourself? What's the fan's CFM?
I tend to really like the results with recommended silver base. Two questions. First, can you 2k over the finished results without losing the effects (primarily on the silver based spoons)? And second, is there any such thing as a black candy? I'm looking for a good paint that will give me a black aluminum look. As always, thank you. 🙏
2K is fine over candy. There's a few options for dark candy looks. Go with a darker base such as Gunmetal. Or you can spray clear black or clear smoke over the already sprayed candy
Very good review. How do you feel the colors looked using the recommended base? Happy new year to all!!
Great video. Save us a lot of work. But do you use topcoat after this?
I didn't for the video. I just wanted to show the actual paint. But you absolutely can use a clear coat over them
A commendation for all the time and effort needed for this review. There seemed to be some similarities amongst the two different greens and also the two blues in the set? Or is it just the monitor?
It's sometimes hard to really show off certain colors under LED lighting or thru a camera. In particular shades of the same color.
cool vid
Great Video as always. If i used these candy colours for a car kit what would you recommend for clear coat or would i not need to clear coat
I tried spraying it over Greenstuffworld chrome and it killed the chrome finish and just made it look like metal flake. Did you spray it on directly or was the GSW chrome sealed before this was sprayed on?
When I tried their candy red it kept peeling off of the silver base. Do you know why ?
