How To Paint A Bike

 wow dude this video helped so much i am going to paint my frame soon its lot easier than i thought. thanks and great vid !

 That paint tripper s*ck ballz! Don't use that guys, it gonna make a lot of bubbles that u'll be able to take off, but the rest of paint will stay on your frame, and it'll be pretty hard to remove that. Much better way is to use sand paper.

 In some cases the primer acts as an rust protector on steel frames, as some colurs are waterbased, three weeks later the frame starts to rust.

 ive seen many people try to paint their bikes and i lol'd so hard. my fav is when they just grab a can of spray paint and give it hell. no effort to remove parts or tape off anything. It looks so awesome. or like my old roommate. took everything off the bike down to the frame then laid it on its side on some newspaper. spared it till it was dripping off. then flipped the bike over and repeated on the other side. no drying or anything. then he was confused why it looked like crap and had newspaper stuck in it when it finally dried. lmao

good vid for nubs who just don't know. :0

 nice vid im really tempted to go paint a bike now lol but i notice you spelt plenty wrong probs just a typo not being harsh just saying before some twat slats you for it

 OMFG r u serious, paint striper? Can I wash the raw frame with water and dry it up with tissue paper after i've used paint stripped all over the frame?

 Might be an idea to mask up the BB shell and headtube before you paint. Saves a lot of time, peeling off masking tape only takes a second.

 wouldnt you want to do a little bit of sanding after all the paint is gone to scrath up the surface so paint sticks better (thats what ive always been told)

 i'v just followed this vid on my frame and it looks and feels sik, so i also did it on the lowers of my forks, Cheers cooper-24

 yea you should use primar so the paint sticks, then do like 5 coats of paint, wetsand the parts you messed up on, then clear coat

 good way to paint your bike. sandblasting works well too to take off the paint, and its faster. you just need a sandblaster and sand.

 where can one find himself some sandblasting sand? thats my only problem. and does it matter what kind of sand you use or is it all the same?

paint stripper_ buy a water based nitro moors

once the paint has been removed wash you bike with water

trust me im a painter and decorator

 do you think the same techinque would work for rims? or what would you have to change.

 What'll happen if the paint stripped drips or flows to my bb? I'm thinking of leaving the bb on

 i prefered the look of your frame raw!! i would of just clear coated it then great video tho
