Thanks, I got an excellent finish with your technique. Cool thing is you can spot treat if you missed an area or if it's not built up enough. It's hard to mess this up.

I use a zinc chromate yellow or green primer on aluminum. I’ve had some paint adhesion fails without primer. Electrostatic painting in the factory overcomes the adhesion issue. However, at home painting in my opinion needs primer on any bare metal, even sprays that claim you don’t need primer. Also I’d use a mild lye caustic soda bath on aluminum before any painting in addition to degreaser. And of course wash off any prep solution. Wear nitrile gloves and wear safety glasses.

If use water a weak Draino solution for cleaning aluminum with distilled water. They sell it in the grocery store (about a dollar for one gallon). About 1/2 teaspoon of Draino in a 1/2 gallon is enough. I'd let the lye solution work for about a minute. Use distilled water to wash off any residue. Use nitrile or kitchen latex gloves and safety glasses.

Just stumbled across this video. Great detail in your video. How has this held up? Is it scratch resistant when dry?

Hi thanks for watching, still like new. Its pretty hard wearing, I wouldnt say scratch resistant but seems stronger than matt paint for example

Always wondered is it best to remove the masking tape before it dries? Thanks for the video btw

I’m not expert but I would probably say yes to avoid peeling the paint but that’s just my opinion

If you suspend your part on a wire you can spray the bottom as well at the same time.

You think I can paint my steel braided hoses with this. They are chrome now and would like them black

Assume your hoses are flexible so this wouldn’t work. Maybe some sort of rubber paint is what you need

If you want the best wrinkle affect use an oven set it at 170f and be amazed

I do 180 because that’s lowest setting on my GE oven. I do 15 minutes bake in convection mode that gets even heat. Beautiful hard finish!

How long did you wait after your final coat before using the heat gun?

It is better to wear gloves- skin has a lot of oils that cause fingerprints. I used the wrinkle black in 1978, after a friend hit the plastic gill-shaped front grill for my 1972 Plymouth Barracuda to help hide the crack after I glued it back together. I have seen people use an outdoor gas grill to cure paint. The wife will probably be upset if you use her oven.

“Wipe it down with grease remover to get rid of any oils or grease” as he grabs it with bare hands. 90% of the time it’s fine but put a set of gloves on to save the headache the other 10%

@A. Melbs Probably something in the preparation department. I've used it on 2 HD engines. One with great success after a thorough cleaning and I got cocky a second time and blasted it on with poor results.
