    I often use the same Sherwin Williams Industrial Alkyd. Have you tried thinning the paint before straining it?

    It's been 4 years since you posted this video and I'm curious on a couple things...
    First, what brand enamel? And secondly, how did it hold up over the past 4 years since you sprayed?
    Lastly, I've seen others that have sprayed yellow enamels and they had a serious issue with color fade within a short time. Did you see the same fading or did the color hold up?
    I'm asking because I'm about to paint a piece of equipment. My color of choice is sun burst yellow. I'm going with enamel but I really don't want to have it fade to off white in 6 months either. In curious as to which enamels retain good color and are durable in heavy use.
    TIA

      It has faded appreciably over time. Yellow doesn't hold up well, no matter what brand. It was Sherwin Williams BTW.

    What are you thinning it with?

    • @YknotLearnall
      @YknotLearnall Před 5 lety +1

      He's using mineral spirits. "Kleen Strip" is the brand I believe. I recognize the jug. They sell it in a can as well.

      As a Thinning Agent ".😇. What he used..🤔 He didn't tell, very👎 funny,.😜. I think we can try with.. Sprit, Turpentine oil,... Or thinner(Acetone), acetone normally spoils the plastic equipment..

    What Are You Using To THIN THE PAINT?????????????

    • @Farmersamm
      @Farmersamm  Před 2 lety +1

      Mineral Spirits. When painting outside in warm weather it's a "slower" thinner that doesn't flash too fast, which allows it to flow out, and build a gloss.

      karen wall although that would seem like a good idea, I feel it’s better to thin paint in steps and test viscosity of paint instead. For me, a buttermilk or heavy cream consistency is just fine which is usually a 10 to 15% thinner to paint ratio. You must realize different batches of paint might have slightly different viscosity. Also, paint thickens as it ages or gets air exposure. Sometimes, I have to put a little mineral spirits in the can for storage.

    lol I bet this paint sucked. You just used so much thinner. That's insane. I bet if you measured everything you'd be impressed. I love it though. No f%&ks given.

    You don't have to watch these kind of stupid videos, there will be a "PDF" on google about the company's paint you bought it will contain all the information about the product like its benefits, paint coverage, how to apply, applying procedure, how to thin for brush/roller or spraying etc...
    Here's an example:

    • @williamchristensen2447
      @williamchristensen2447 Před 7 lety +3

      I agree, what a waste of time watching. Just mixing on the grass with no regard for the mess makes the whole process suspect.
