Gold Paint Tests Part 1 - Prepwork Ho!

The test: Which paint and which protective coating will allow me to keep the metal quality of the rattle-can AND apply a high quality coating!

I chose as many different kinds of paint that I could find for this test. Each can of Rust-Oleum was chemically different but all the cans of different Krylon was chemically the same. So this is why I chose the spread you see in the vid.
I did not do a lot of research on the chemical makeups of the cans, using the logic that different is different. The hope is that when everything is dry only the pigment is left behind and the chemical compositions won't matter.
A big HOWEVER to that is latent reactions that I can't predict. So I'm just going forward with the test to see what happens.

Another thing I want to mention is that I have heard a lot of complaints about Rust-Oleum paints. Personally, I have never experienced the issues mentioned but when we go over the chemical propellants it might explain why people have issue. The solvents and propellants will react with the material you spray onto. You can see it happen over time as the spray paints eat the mask I made and end up turning it into goo.

I will finish this video by the end of Christmas. Next video when I wake up!
