The only thing downfall to a video like this, is the fact that unless you've been custom painting yourself, it's honestly hard to appreciate just how much time and skill is invested in this paint job. Amazing, simply stunning, nothing less than a work of art. You're a legend Martin
You're not just a bicycle painter, Martin, you're an artist, and that is piece of art. I don't know how you do it, because you just keep getting better and better at it, and I greatly appreciate the inspiration. That bike is very beautiful, and bonus for the rim brakes!

I really enjoyed the serious presentation of this video. Sometimes you make your work look so easy. This truly exposed not only your creativity, but high level of concentration. Thanks
Truly fabulous paint job. I love all the colours and the finished article. You much have put many hours into this frame, even just making the stickers for the inlay colours.
Hi, I’ve opened the can of worms that are your videos & am in awe of your talent, generosity and dedication. I have to buy a lot of stuff for my home bike paint here in Australia. The Amazon links on videos aren’t working so I’m left with uncertainty around which specific brands / products to use. I also have approached several local sand blasting companies and they aren’t confident about blasting carbon / aluminium hybrid frames as I’ve got. Would be great if you had an international online store with diy packages including everything people might need to get started and possibly even tool libraries so people can rent or borrow super expensive gear setups. 🤘
Beautiful works of art and unlimited creativity, any type of bicycle can be transformed by a Martin, supported by a comfortable workshop. I am a painter from Indonesia who admires Martin's skills
Great video! I enjoyed seeing the more intricate parts of a paint job like this, and I definitely have a better appreciation of the time involved now! Please do more like this, it's a great insight. 👌😁
Fantastico!! (as always) - I went to ALOT of effort to do a self build eMTB... I designed the decals,(Anarchy MTB Guiding) I spent a few days spraying it... polishing it... etc etc..I was as happy as you could be with a spray can job, done outside on my roof terrace... It wasn't the best.. but for a first attempt.. I was happy... Then, after 2 rides on the Enduro tracks here, it is chipped.. scratched, and looks like a well used bike (which it is) - and this is on Mallorca, If I had done the same build and used it in my homeland of Scotland, then I don't think it would even be worth painting!! haha...to be honest, I didn't like it looking all shiny and new... and actually love the look it has now.....I'd be too scared to ride one of your fantastic paint jobs..Total Art Martin...
@@humprey2 Aahhh… ok! Well, that’s a shame. Not meant to Martin at all… that was a customers order who wanted a rescue paint job. I wouldn’t do that - changing brand on my Bianchi. But very much change the colour and theme, like Martin has shown so many times fantastically. He is unique!
Seeing how much work you had to put to make this I would put 5 layers of clear coat 😂 It's a work of art. I hope I start a bicycle company one day and if I do I will beg you to design me a paintscheme.
Martin. What a stunning labour of love. Would a clear wrap help protect your masterpeice or cause problems for the paint job? It's just that I'd be to scared to ride it!
How much would the frame and respray have cost ? I have supersix evo hi mod , the black paint flaked off - so Iv razor bladed most of rest / light sanded . whole bike was 1k pounds , with di2 . As I understand it a respray would be circa 600 for basic respray thanks Martin @@ETOE
I think that is why he started to sand it first then sent it to Martin hoping it would remove some labor costs. This is why I think he underlined that it took days to just paint the squares on.
Hi martin this bike came out amazing, such great work! As a painter (automotive and cycles) my self i fully understand the insane amount of work involved here! I was always under the impression you cannot media blast carbon. What are using as media here?
I'm sorry but that's definitely NOT Look 595 frame. As lovely a paintjob as it is, it's a Colnago C64 disguised as Look. You can't miss these lovely carbon fibre lugs. All Look frames are monocoque! You should change the title of this video to "A follower tricked me into a blasphemy of painting the Colnago frame to look like Look..."! 😜
You couldn’t be more wrong. It’s a Look , no they aren’t all monocoque the 595 and many more were lugged. The c64 has a completely different top tube and down tube and if you took that time to watch the video properly you’d see that Get your facts right before commenting on the man’s work, both video and spray have an attention to detail that you obviously lack 😊
how much weight can a white paint job on a carbon bike add? I'm thinking about having my 2016 De Rosa Protos stripped. i have a feeling its a really heavy paint
Hallo Martin. Bin absolut begeistert von deinen Videos! Was würdest du für einen Plotter; welches Programm empfehlen?? Grüsse und mach unbedingt weiter mit deinen wertvollen Videos. Danke dir
