Very nice mate I had trouble hearing you over the music but love the job thanks
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Got it 😉
Clever guy
Awesome work and awesome video ! Very talented ! Do you mind sharing what compressor you have ? Brand , size , etc.
Thanks Anthony for the kind words. The compressor is a Bostitch, maybe a 6 gallon. i since got an airbrush compressor, it run more often but it is much more quiet.
Also you can find in the description the link to what I use to do the job.
Wow
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
I really like your paint job, and would like to custom paint my motorcycle.
hi Brett, shoot me an email if you have question:

Awesome job the only thing with sanding the surface to key it it will have put thousands of micro fissures in the casting that will become weak spots that will fracture if you ever have an impact.
Thanks, I could agree with you if I was going to the bare surface material, but considering that I just scuff the paint, how are those micro fissure in the paint will affect the strength of the helmet. Although the added layer of primer, base coat, flakes + clear etc.. should add strength even if minimal 😉. A test will be a great idea 👍🏻
Thanks for watching.
This is simply not true. In fact, it's absurd.
V good
Thanks for watching 😉
c'est propre tres belle anglofrancais mdr
Nice video! I've recently gained an interest in airbrush painting so I was wondering if you could give a price estimate for a basic setup.
Thanks, I had several request about setup, so I am planning of making a video in the coming days, stay tune 😉 thanks for watching.
@@lesagecustoms4668 thanks a lot man, I'll keep an eye out for the video
What about drying time between colors and patterns how long do you wait how long did it take to create that .was it days how many hours involved. Just amazing .I love both the bike and helmet
Helmet and tank was both made in one day, the candy is a water base and it dry pretty quickly. It have to be mix with some kind of clear to protect from bleeding.. it didn't happen so much on those but it still happen to me..
I mean when I say one day, it is just to apply the design, taping etc.. all the prep with primer, sanding, base coat, applying clear+flakes, take another day, and when finishing, you have to apply several coat of clear and sand again to flatten the tape line. I will say from start to finish it can take 4 days, but I am sure with the perfect setup, it can be faster 😉
what kind of base coat did you use? did you use the candy with clear coat and hardener?
Hi John, primer is a Direct To Metal, high surface builder, then base coat was Silver Metallic, then Clear Coat mixed with flakes (normal mix with hardener), then 2-3 coat of Clear, sand to get it flat without removing the flakes, sprayed the candy over it.
@@lesagecustoms4668 thx 🙏🏽. I wasn’t sure how to use the flakes. With 1k base or 2k clear. But I think it’s better to go with 2k all the way.
What paint did you use for the black?
The black is from Createx too, not the candy, the plain black color 😉
Very good!
What type of paint are you using in the airbrush? Is it ”car paint” or is it airbrush ”hobby”paint?
With the airbrush I am using airbrush paint, it can be use with a normal spray gun too. The brand is Createx and this is the Candy2o, water base. They have different series, and frankly this is an awesome brand. You have to be use to it as different color of candy will need different air pressure, some are thicker than other and you will need their additive the 4030 and 4011.
It is a water base so after spraying be careful with any water, drop dog slubber etc.. until you clear it with a automotive clear coat.
Have fun 😉
@@lesagecustoms4668 Excellent answer, thanks!
I need help?!?! Where do you get that awesome trim and i need a whole new chin strap and i cant find andthing thats what i need on ebay or amozon.
For the chrome trim you can find it at your local auto parts, also on Amazon (cowles S37204 chrome edge, check if this is the right size you want).
For the chin part you might want to contact Biltwell.
Thanks for watching.
@@lesagecustoms4668 awesome thanks
god job
Thanks 👍🏻😉
@@lesagecustoms4668 I am from Indonesian
@@choirulanwar3456 cheers from Florida my friend 🙌🏻
What type of paints are you using for your airbrush?
Hi Mate, thanks for watching!
The paint is a candy made by Createx, it is called Candy2o, this is water base 😉
Great work 😎😎😎 and what is price of this wark?
Thanks 🙌🏻

Hello, which clear coat did you use?
Hi, thanks for watching! The clear coat in an automotive grade called High Teck 7000 high gloss, maybe not the cheapest, but never had any problem with it!
in your opinion , is createx candy2o worth it? trynna get into candy paints but the only thing i know personally is house of colors
I don't have much experience with HOK candy, so I can't really speak for it. What I like about Createx is that it is a water base, cleanup is much easier, if you messed up, in my case one area, it is an easy cleanup, also the lack of chemical make it safer to use in my apartment. I do like Createx bottle system. The downside of water base is you have to protect your work from any source of water or droplet or even a sluberry dog until it is cleared 😉
Oh and the result from Createx have been beyond my expectations
@@lesagecustoms4668 thank you for your feedback, highly appreciate it. gonna start my research towards createx. mahalo from hawaii
@@Kakaasipyro808 you're welcome, I really love Createx! And I'm not getting any money from them, but try it, you will not be disappointed 😉
What paint products are you using?
Sorry for the delay, I really thought I replied it!!! The candy is from Createx, this is a water base, hope this help.
I want one. Cash money with a color that matches my chopper? I can send pics??
Hi Frankie, shoot me an email: frenchyinflorida@gmail.com 😉
I need one too! I keep watching this video thinking I can do it but why not support a talented artist. I’ll use the e-mail?
@@SuperPatush super hit him up. Just got mine in the mail...he did an amazing job. More then worth the money. I am more then happy!!
Hi..the gold yellow colour you using is transparent colour or you reduce it with reducer until the colour become transparent??..😳😳😳
Hi Mate, thanks for watching. The paint you are talking about is a kind of paint that is called Candy, this is transparent paint. I only mix the Candy paint with some 4030 per the manufacturer instruction. Check Createx Candy2o.
@@lesagecustoms4668 yes i know about candy paint but dont know candy paint is same like transparent paint..so we do not need to use the real transparent paint..just use the candy paint we can also do transparent is it?..😳😳😳..because i want to paint the lace pattern background with chrome paint..so after i will cover with the transparent paint the lace pattern effect look like mirror & the colour will look like the top coat paint but have mirror effect
@@mustakimkamaruzaman9715 yes correct you don't have to add anything to get it translucent, the 4030 that I add is for other reason but the candy itself will do it 😉
@@lesagecustoms4668 oh ok alright..so im not going buy any translucent colour to make it transparent to make the pattern mirror effect..i think before candy same like other paint like solid gloss paint if i using it will cover all the pattern so i think i must buy translucent colour..Thanks bro🙏🙏😊
Je me permets de t’écrire en français car à ton accent je n’ai pas de doute sur ton origine 😜. Super boulot. J’ai peint mon casque de contre la montre à la bombe en faisant quelques masque et je souhaite me lancer dans l’aréographie pour un autre casque. J’ai regardé ta vidéo dans le détail histoire de bien comprendre comment faire. Tu as vraiment bien géré ton casque et ta moto sont magnifiques. Tu m’as inspiré dans la technique.
Peux tu me dire combien de temps il faut attendre entre chaque couche d’aéro? J’ai l’impression que tu enchaînes très vite entre 2 couches.
As tu un aéro simple action ? Tu règles la pression sur ton compresseur ?
Salut, merci. Alors oui la pression je la règle à la sortie du compresseur, les candy que j'utilise sont de Createx Candy2o, c'est a l'eau, ça sèche relativement vite. Par contre il faut bien faire attention, je mix le candy avec un de leur produit qui est un genre clearcoat, genre 10%, ça évite que les couleurs se mélangent. Et puis comme toute peinture fais plusieurs passage pour éviter les "runs". Pour le temps j'essaie toujours de toucher la où il y a du scotch ou papier pour voir si c'est sec. L'aérographe est un modèle de base, acheté sur Amazon pour moins de $30! Fais des essais sur des cartons ou autre, tu verra c'est très addictif, bonne chance 😉
@@lesagecustoms4668 merci pour ta réponse et les détails c’est sympa. Je vois à certain moment que tu passes un coton tige pour certainement rattraper des bavures. Que mets tu sur ton coton comme produit pour « effacer » le défaut ?
Oui en effet, j'essaie d'absorber les coulées, dans ce cas rien dessus. Si c'est du over spray sur du clearcoat j'utilise une genre de paint gun cleaner 😉
@@lesagecustoms4668 merci. Du coup ta vidéo m’a vraiment donné envie de me lancer dans l’aero pour la perso de mon prochain casque que j’ai déjà commandé. Je viens également de craquer mon slip sur Amazon avec aéro, compresseur, accessoires, peinture, diluant, cleaner... et j’en passe. Ça me fera l’occasion de faire une nouvelle vidéo 😜. Encore merci d’avoir pris le temps de me répondre et pour tes conseils. 🙋🏻♂️
@ Super! Pas de soucis, tu va voir on y prend vite goût. Bon courage pour ton projet, et n'hésite pas si je peut aider ;-)
