Always a good day when we get to hang out with Spindatt. I'm not the creative type, but hopefully this gives me the motivation and energy to get an old bike off the street and actually fix it up, instead of giving up because looking at all the issues and going "aaaa scary" is easier than remembering that over the course of a year I rebuild a full bike due to worn out parts across my fleet

@PepeDeezNutz 2 года назад

You can find the aircraft paint remover at auto parts stores. I used the spray stuff and after scraping most of it off I used a brass wire brush on a drill to make a cool swirl pattern. Then I just clearcoat it and have a raw frame. Looks dope!

@smokemeakipper1076 2 года назад

@oldshovel 2 года назад

I hate paint stripper. Also on aluminum frames, if the paint is not chipping I figure the primer/base coat is better than anything I will put on so I try to keep it, sand it just enough to smooth it out and give a good layer for the new paint to adhere to. That said I’m kind of impatient also… 😂 and not a pro painter.

Get your paint stripper at a auto body supply its a game changer. Further more i agree on the sanding the paint down and painting over it. You really want to get scratches covered then use some highbuild primer and sand smooth. Boom professional job done

@erict3870 2 года назад

Permatex gasket remover will strip pretty much anything, but as old shovel says, the factory primer is probably hard to beat for adhérence on barre métal, especially aluminium. It is much more easy to get a good bond on sanded paint that on bare metal for DYI jobs

@Ego_Katana 2 года назад

Great segment. I picked up a super cool lugged Mercian frame in FUGLY brown with some rust. I need to strip, sand and primer. I bought some modern stripper but thinking of going with a nylon or brass abrasive wheel. I used to help my dad refinish furniture back in the 80's and used that gnarly Red Devil stripper - in the basement, no mask, and if you got it on your skin it'd burn like a mofo. I am still waiting for my kidneys to shut down.

@Adam-xo7cv 2 года назад

You need to find a local company that does sandblasting. A lot less chemicals involved (if any) and quick results. Looks great though!

@NonLegitNation2 2 года назад

from what I've heard sand blasting an aluminum frame isn't the best idea. It great for steel but supposedly not for aluminum.

@Kavster92 2 года назад

You can avoid the random sanding lines left behind post stripping by immediately following the successful paint stripper operation with a coarse grade steel wool, moving in the same direction as the tubes it will make light work of soft and flaky paint, leaving you with a uniform surface to start with when it comes to your abrasives.

@nickisauer9626 2 года назад

Glasses? If the stuff removes paint what will it do to the naked eye? Glasses is maybe a good idea.

@dereks8930 2 года назад

No joke. I know a man lost his right eye vision.. 1 sec w/o goggles. Chemicals get overlooked on safety.

@AaronHendu 2 года назад

With paint / powdercoat that doesn't respond as well to paint stripper, use it in combination with one of those paint and rust removal wheels you can put in any drill. When I started using those, I pretty much stopped using stripper altogether. Takes about an hour to strip a frame, and I typically don't even get through an entire wheel. 3M makes a good one. Some paint will bubble right off with the stripper, some...not so much, and requires constant scraping and reapplication. Annoying. Plus...it freaking burns, man.

@sempi8159 2 года назад

@BruceChastain 2 года назад

I’m not an expert but what I’m finding is that you don’t really need to take off the old paint. Just sand it down smooth and thin.

@Drubbered 2 года назад

It never looks quite as good though, and sometimes the new paint is not compatible and doesn't last long before bubbling or peeling.

@davidburgess741 2 года назад

You send it to a powder coater and have it sand blasted or bead blasted. You then either paint it yourself, or have them powder coat it. Usually this is cheap and they can handle an entire car chassis and the body panels in their oven. Imagine, time saving, cost effective, and eco friendly all at the same time!

@randorecumbent 2 года назад

Yup and if you want something you can do yourself with minimal equipment, try soda blasting. Harbor Freight sells a kit. As long as you have an air compressor you're good to go.

@paulkoller8104 2 года назад

I had a frame powder coated. Don't know if I got raped or a good deal, but it was $350. That said, it turned out awesome.

@randorecumbent 2 года назад

@@paulkoller8104 That actually sounds reasonable for a one off job. Just the paint for custom work can cost $200-250. So for powder coating with prep and single color I think that's reasonable. The only way I could see less is if you let them use a color they were already running for another job so they didn't have to buy custom powder.

@zenspeed404 2 года назад

Good Lord, yes. Sandblasting is like $40 for a bike frame, and it's well-worth not having to deal with chemicals or making sure every nook and cranny is completely bare.

@davidburgess741 2 года назад

@@paulkoller8104 Indeed that was a bit much. Put into perspective though, that paint is tough, and it is unlikely you could do better work at home. In my case I think the guy was in a good mood, and I posted pics on his website. The decals were photographed and new ones were made at a sign company. That cost about $100. The seatpost was stuck and no longer made, so that got painted too.

@rangersmith4652 2 года назад

I have a 2004-ish Specialized Sirrus Comp in candy blue that got some paint damage, mostly on the top tube, in my recent move. I've been thinking about taking it down to bare aluminum around the entire diameter of the tube in the damaged spots, attempting to create a sort of "fade" from blue to bare. It may not work, but if can get it even close the effect should look pretty good and will be a lot easier than a full repaint. My plan is to use 100/200 dry then 400 grit wet sandpaper. The front derailleur and bottom bracket (seals are literally gone) need an overhaul anyway, so they will come off, but given the damage location, pretty much everything else can stay on.

@marcusathome 2 года назад

Agh man... yeah, lessons learned. For a bike like that is it worth stripping all the paint? You could have sanded it down a bit, then a coat of primer, some sanding with a fine grain and ready for whatever paint job. I'm sure it's gonna come out awesome, tho!

@ibrudy69 2 года назад

I'm a rookie but after watching this I agree. Can you suggest what grit to start and then finish with? Thanks in advance. Also, ( wet or dry) ?

@marcusathome 2 года назад

@@ibrudy69 First, give it a really good clean, also with degreaser into the all the corners to get any grit and grease off. Next, any stickers/decals need to go. Use a heat gun to soften, then peel it off. Any glue residue clean off using acetone. Now the frame is ready for sanding. You may start with a 100 grit (dry) and then a 200 (wet). If there are any dents or deep scratches you can use filler and then sand it down again. Spray paint with primer, then sand it with 350 (wet). You are now ready for the actual paint job.

@fastandcurious 2 года назад

I paint stripped my bike a week ago. The first attempt failed. I then reapplied a !!!thick!!! layer of that gel and that worked! Of course I had wrapped the frame both times. I then washed it off with a bit of water, a sponge and a metal sponge. Of course all the stuff and leftovers go to the recycling depot. I will not repaint my 94 GT Tequesta. I love the current "naked" steel look.
