yo im lookin for fat caps for rusto wider then orange fronts any ideas

AGE OLD QUEST


right now the only thing is NY Fats and you'll probably have to widen the stem (look a few pages back if you need a tutorial)


i think i fill faster with the "orange front" rusto fats tho

try cutting the slit on the stem of them fatter. you should get a line an inch or two fatter

this thread is the whole reason you cant rack rusto fats off of elmers anymore. thanks. no go stick your painting hand down a disposal.

you really think that's true?

if so, how does that explain the entire can design being changed?


also, like I said a few pages back if people didn't "blow spots" then we wouldn't be able to purchase rusto fats, ny thins & fats, boston rusto thins, etc. from shops



i think we should all take a note from heads like Oujia tho and start bringing a pocket full of stocks whenever we go to nab caps and exchange the nabbed cap with a stock so customers aren't all UMADWTF when they buy a product with no cap

I bought a bunch of caps, so I need to know just a couple of things.

FIRST UP, TOY ALERT- LOOK AWAY IF YOU CAN'T ANSWER TOY QUESTIONS

Level 1's are black dots right? And Level 3's are grey dots? If not, what's the difference?

Also, I have these caps that look like NY fats but they're pink.. wtf are they?

How does one tell the difference between NY thins and fats?

I have a see through cap that looks just like a black dot, but it's see through and it's a fat cap. WTF IS IT? (I mean, I know it's fat :P).

I have these black banana w/ grey dots. Looks like german outline #4 but it's grey dot not black. Also have one with yellow dot. What are these?

What are level 2's used for?

Apart from those I'm all good. Thanks for any help. It's really appreciated.

You have a lot of questions. I will only help with one.

NY thins have smaller thinner ridges on the outside, NY fats have slightly wider ridges.

For the rest just go try them out. You don't need to know their names to spray them through a can of paint.

ok .I hope I can jump in and ask something. I am currently 36 and have been painting since 1980 and lately I have been feeling the caps are not as simple as they are advertised. For a long time I had been putting on a cap and feeling it wasn't working rite let's say a grey german cap and they would all be the same from the same place and maybe 10 would work one way with really tight soft lines and another 10 would work differently. I couldn't remember this ever happening years ago. This brings me to my question ,what are the numbers on the face of the cap and underneath . I have heard many different things. Some say the number underneath is the level and the front 2 are the flare or effect? I have asked the supply house in ordering caps and they say it's nothing but routing numbers and not for me? I also have just recently been piecing more and had saved a can here and there of all montanas and beltons over time and been noticing the gold and grey dots don't work on either. Could they be so old they are different? Made for Krylon only? This has been driving me nuts.I am aware that asking questions at times looks foolish,but I always used rusto or krylon, and find to this day the rite stock cap is sometimes the best.All I want is to be able to get the smallest tightest cap possible for detailed work, and be able to rely on it working as advertised.Lastly does anyone know how to contact the actual manufacturer or even their company name? the caps just have that Li it looks like?New York outlines are great but clog too often, at least for me. Rusto is still my favorite if they only had a low pressure can and valve.

04-19-2010, 06:14 PM
Thanks I will look into that . I never used one of those. What about for Montana hardcore, belton premium and high pressure? I already have a few crates of that paint and in all honesty am happy with it. I luckily obtained a grip of it in a trade, leaving my original question and problem what are the numbers on the caps? And if they are to explain the caps use how are they read accurately?

Good question... It made me curious so I starting looking through a bag of grey dots I have..

I don't know for sure, but I think they might be batch numbers or some sort of manufacturing mark... Maybe each mold at the factory is numbered or something. So that when one starts producing wonky caps they know which one it is, and can fix it.

I don't think it has anything to do with how it sprays, I have a bag of about 50 and pretty much every one is different.

the sekt caps are cool but i don't like how the cap sits a little higher than normal, that's why i am interested in these new joints.

i just got my order from trout today. i emailed them about 2 days ago to check on the status of the order since i had heard nothing back (tracking number, etc...) since placing the order. they got back to me the same day, in a few hours in fact.

the boston's are pretty dope! i threw one on a rusto chrome and it worked well. as did the 2 different types female caps for the male valve cans. both worked great on a painters touch can!

again, i like the sekt caps too and i like having the ability to use different caps with one sekt adapter. but these caps from trout feel more like using a regular can opposed to having to adjust your finger and hand to accommodate the slightly higher adapter and whichever cap you are using. try both, see which ones you like better.

THEY WORK AWESOME IF YOU CAN GET A GOOD ONE TO WORK ON THE PAINT YOUR USING. I STILL CAN'T EVER GET A STRAIT ANSWER, WHAT DOTHE NUMBERS ON THE FRONT OF THE CAPS MEAN TO EACH CAP, AND HOW DO YOU READ THEM CORRECTLY.SOME SAY THEY MEAN NOTHING, OTHERS SAY THEY ARE THE EFFECT ,WHICH IS WHAT I AM LEANING TOWARDS. ALMOST EVERY CAP WORKS DIFFERENTLY. IT IS ABSOLUTLY NOT AS SIMPLE AS A ONE FINGER OR SUPERTHIN OUTLINE CAP, OR HOWEVER YOU WANT TO LOOK AT IT. IF IT IS THE EFFECT, HOW DO YOU ORDER THE ONES YOU WANT IN BULK INSTEAD OF GETTING A BAG OF WHATEVER YOU GET. ABOUT 25 OUT OF A HUNDRED ARE WHAT YOU WANT ,THE REST ARE TOO BIG OR THE WRONG PRESSURE...I JUST WANT THE THINNEST CAP POSSIBLE EVERY TIME FOR DETAIL.PLEASE ANYONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME..Does anyone know how good grey dots work for outlines. Is it really noticable.

Good point sorry. Thanks for the suggestions. I was aware of both those tips but appreciate the thought. I am actually looking for something that i can use inside the outline for really tight detail. Stencil caps work great but are so messy, I usually just continue on with an outline cap.Most of the time I am o.k. that way but these days it seems like no matter what cap I use its rare I am extremely happy with its performance. I have been at this for quite some time and never remember this stress in the early 90's. But I also saw someone state that since the euro paint came in the same caps are not always the same . A german outline might be for montana and a separate one for Krylon for instance. I had huge jug of hundreds of every cap made, upto the astro caps , but haven't gotten any in years and now am out or running out of all the tight skinny caps which seem harder to obtain the ones you want .For me anyway , my last bag from a well known supplier was maybe 25-30 out of 100 that were exactly what I want the rest were dusty or increased the pressure ,bringing me back to my original question about those numbers. Thanks to all for trying to help. Any further info would be great.....71

I thought the same for a while ,but I do have a bunch of caps that are the same numbers and they all work the same way. Just yesterday I used a new york thin and it was a J 4 and it was spraying all dusty and seemed bigger than usual so I switched it to a E 5 and even though it was a number larger from 4-5 it was so smooth and tight , just beautiful. It got me thinking and I went and searched threw my caps and found 5 with the same E 5 on the front and they were all the same beautiful tight spraying caps as the others. I then tried another with the letter E but It was an 8 and it sprayed smooth and crisp but was larger than the others no matter how close to the wall I went. I have done this test many times before with grey dots gold dots you name it german outlines and the so called universal yellow outline caps. I always found the smaller the numbers the smaller the lines and the letters on the new york outs positively effects there output .I am not sure exactly how to read them though . With that said in my opinion the numbers are not just for the manufacturer, but I have not yet been able to clarify this. Its almost like a taboo or something , no one ever talks about it. I can't believe I am alone in noticing how different one cap works from the next. Good to see at least it got someone else thinking. I know you can see anything on this thread, but trust me I am not new to this whole thing, just very surprised and annoyed at this whole cap controversy. 71...

i really think it has something to do with the quality of production. not the numbers on the cap. caps are injection molded....i imagine after a long run on the same mold, it will start to gunk/clog up (just like spray paint clogs your cap) and causes minor imperfections in the cap creating different or imperfect spray patterns.

stop thinkin so hard. youre gonna hurt yourself

Rusto fats or NY fats, and stock tips are all you need. If you need fancy caps to rock, you need to step your game up.

orarok08
05-29-2010, 08:58 AM
Flip the can over. Let some propellant out. The can should get colder. The can should handle a bit better. Or, soften the stem part of the stock cap. Once softened, use a fingernail clipper to pinch the walls of the stem; at the uppermost section. If used on a cold can, the lack of pressure from the can will allow the cap to create a thinner line, since the pinched area acts as a reservoir. Eg, a grey dot cap has a stem that only allows a set output. If you softened the cap too much, causing the stem to thin a bit, some teflon tape should help. Or, just use the can upside-down as you paint. It will act as a sort of airbrush. Leaning the can from anywhere from 45 to 70 degrees may allow just a bit of paint out.

your trying to tell me that you can't see any differences in the use of one cap vs. the next from the same bag. pick any ones you want ,german outlines , n.y. outlines, whatever.If your answer is no than more power to you. I am not going to argue. As far as asking about the stock cap modification , I have seen many writers use stock caps that seemed super thin and was wondering if maybe I could learn something. I was under the impression that this was a cap thread and asking for help and info was what it was for. No matter how long you may be painting that doesn't mean you know everything, I never claimed to. What do you care anyway?

No your actually rite on the caps are the same. It is the dots that is what is the difference. That is what creates the effect. When the paint hits the insert if the numbers are big to small it starts at whatever and increases the pressure a bit as it squeezes threw a smaller opening at the exit out the front, or vice versa try to blow threw a handful of caps you'll hear the difference. Look at the front of the insert on any pink dot orange dot blue dot, gold fat cap you will find the impression of the circle to be completely different depending on the numbers. Don't think too much I will hurt myself. You think whatever you want . I only started thinking about this after a long time of noticing the difference in the caps . After asking many people and getting all sorts of answers plus doing lots of trial and era, this is what I believe , until proven wrong. However I am sure it is not some production numbers, try and look for what I said or don't . Keep thinking I am the stupid ignorant one, please, be my guest...71 Could be I am totally off but I need a logical explanation than. The whole reason I brought it up was because I wasn't sure but I do know its not nothing.

I would have no problem believing that to be true ,but you haven't explained why the caps, work differently. If you have an explanation ,I would be glad to say I am off base. Hopefully it won't be that this is in my head. The caps are all the same, etc, etc, because that is just not the case. This is not a few caps, or even a bag of a hundred caps this is every cap. Even the stock caps on any Rusto or whatever. They all have numbers and unless those numbers are the same in my experience they work differently. Some might be hard to notice if the numbers are close together 4-5 or 6 but you take a yellow German outline , or a New York thin cap and get a cap thats a 0-1 or 2-0 vs. a 2-4 or 0-6 which are the numbers that where most prevalent in my last order of universal German outlines and there is a huge difference. I am surprised no one has noticed this. If I am wrong and the numbers mean nothing, or are just for company reasons how come if you get 10 0-1's which is easy to do from a 100 cap bag they all work the same with tight thin lines vs. the 2-4 or 4-6 or 0-6 or 8 which are all in there as well, they are much much broader lines and have a more powerful dusty performance. I am the first person who would like every cap to simply be the same tight thin outline cap, but no matter how many people want to laugh or say I am wrong , this guy thinks to much, or whatever ,until you can explain why I am wrong and give a logical explanation this is what I am going with. I haven't thought of this over night and have actually been told this as well by others, but as you see here there are allot of opinions...71

Or, just use the can upside-down as you paint. It will act as a sort of airbrush. Leaning the can from anywhere from 45 to 70 degrees may allow just a bit of paint out.

Thanks for the post. That's all I was looking for was a serious idea or fact that I may not have known or tried before. Turns out I did learn something. I have never tried to modify a cap before, I never had a reason to attempt it. Even though the caps are probably a better choice its always good to have the knowledge of an additional method. Respect....71

personally, having used stock caps, ny outlines, and rusto fats over a period of about 15 years, i can say these caps generally work the same. i haven't really noticed any cap to cap variation.

i don't have this kind of experience with euro caps so i wouldn't speak on that.

another way to get around control is by getting a super low pressure paint, like belton

esar71
05-31-2010, 07:07 PM
That sounds great ,I wish I was that lucky. I will agree Rusto fat caps are the one cap that is exactly the same , the insert and cap is the same ever time, there are no numbers and I have never seen any difference. I know many people might read this and think because they have no numbers I am convincing myself of there being the same, and the others aren't but in my experience I truly see the difference all the time and this is what started me trying to find out why. I never meant to start a big debate or come off like I was trying to state how it is and teach anyone anything. I asked simply to see if someone new exactly what the deal was and could help me fully understand and proceed forward. I also never noticed any of this until maybe 99-2003 before that I agree I took a cap and it worked as it always did.Maybe after the Euro paint came in there was a change maybe not , never the less thanks for the input..71

alright....ill pay closer attention. and stop being an asshole.

but amercan classic caps have always worked the same for me every time. euro caps are a different story.

the numbers on the insert....i still think youre gonna have better luck relating it to a 2012 apocolypse senario or something.

With 'lak I like universal german outlines and gray dots... If you shave down the stem of a NY thin you can get a really nice fit into the valve of a 'lak, works really nice.. Sprays a little wider than a gray or german and flows real nice.

SMASHTHAT
06-09-2010, 03:54 PM
Yo so I was using some thin german-style cap. I think the actual cap was grey, but anyway I had it on a colorplace flat black, and I was filling with it; all of a sudden I heard a pretty loud "POP" and paint splattered on the wall at high velocity, like it became extremely pressurized. So I was playing around with it, and found that it had basically became a siiick blaster cap. I was busting some WICKED thick fucking flares at the top of the wall extinguisher-style. Anyone have any insight as to what may have happened? Any way I can modify the cap internally to do this on command?

Vossy
06-09-2010, 08:36 PM
The dot popped out of the cap...

To make your own blaster just pop the dot out of pretty much any cap... I find the easiest way to get the dot out is to take a small screw (I use a hook shaped one for hanging pictures) screw it into the dot, then use pliers to pull it out. Works every time.

NY THIN

yo I really never read this thread before in all my time on 12 oz but I figure I would share the wealth will everyone on here for a price of course. Here is what I have. I have the original NY Thin tips that will drastically reduce alot of unneccesary line work while piecing. If you are from the Northeast and been writing since the early to mid 90's then you know what Im talking about. I first started using this cap 13 or so years ago on Krylon and worked great especially on " Banner Red". After a while as you all know Krylon got wack and we started getting the imported paints. I tried this in Montana Spain and Ironlak and it works straight. But if you want them thin laser crisp lines like Ges or Kem5( just to throw some names out) then look no more they have arrived. All you need is 1 and take care of it real good after painting and you are gold.This cap is for technical style writers but it can help anyone. Price is $10 for 1 cap and $2 for shipping and handling No Bullshit. Below are a couple of FAQ's

Q- is this the cap that I heard about but never seen?
A- yes it is
Q- its $10 dollars and $2 for shipping and handling thats alot of money, why should I fork over hard earned or stolen money?
A-yes $12 bones is alot of 1 cap, hell Im one of the cheapest niggas around and I even bark at that price. But look at all the unneccesary work reduction this cap will give. For all you aspiring tech and detail oriented writers this is a must. Anyways niggas be dropping $10 dollars or more for brew and stoges or some other non sense.
Q-is this a muthafucking joke?
A-No this is for real son
Q- when will it ship?
A- once I get the funds via paypal I will ship out next business day and depending what part of the US you are in it could take 2-4 days standard mail
Q- I have to ask more questions
A- whats left to explain but if you are stupid,high,or just one retarded ass nigga that no one hung around with just PM me and I will clarify it all

DISCLAIMER- this cap will not make you into a overnight sensation, get laid, or get more fame.

Does the Boston thin and the new fat have more control then the New Yorks? In other words softer , less delay. Granted the valve is still the same but the New York caps have that skip , to there start if you only press the valve slightly. I had heard that the Boston thins were allot smoother but haven't ordered any yet due to trout being temporarily down...71

The boston thins and new rusto fats eliminate the dreaded rusto stutter, the fats more so than the thins. The fat isn't exactly a fat tho, I would call it med. large. Awesome for bombing and freights.

So for the said racked store shitty or not he orders more unless he is closing up shop, meaning more $ for Krylon. You would think that they would have some respect for the artists.Plus the fact that their paint and logo was supported many times by artists I myself had a Krylon shirt and wore it promoting there product many times..71

fast question.
Someone gave me a can of rusto satin with a rusto cap that came out so nice.
I've used standard Rustoleum and AA exclusively forever with the NY thin and
Rusto fat cap combo and have never been altogether satisfied. In fact...
The damn stock cap works better for me than the NY cap so after a few lines
i usually swap back...
Things iv'e noticed. NY thin cap likes to shoot out an inch of pre-spray that isn't
uniform with the rest of the line.
My question. Is there a better thin cap for rusto? Should i just keep on keepin
on with the stock? It seems pretty high pressure. I would like lower pressure
& thinner lines.
Is that more an attribute of the spraycan?

Did anybody in this almost 100 pages come up with a guide that mostly
everybody agrees upon?

Black Banana Skinny does a nice crisp line. Flip the can over and deplete some propellant to ease the valve.

the pink ironlak caps are awesome but they can clog fast and the stem can break real easy. Good for 1 time use unless you take really good care of them. But for the best cap get the Original NY Thin*

german Montana Level Cap System

08-11-2010, 01:36 PM
i use :

german banana old style (mtn outline cap) - outlines

lvl 4 soft fat (low psi with mtn gold) (silver cap with black dot),it seems to be the best lvl cap so far...lvl 1 is ultra skinny,and they sucks,all mtn lvl caps are the same and same shit,too fast and i dont like it so i use lvl 4 for fillins and outlines sometimes,also with that cap you can make ultra skinny line it you go fast and close to the wall,for me its and universal cap and i like it.

cant w8 to see the new lvl's on low psi gold mtns i hope that there will be one "skinny cap" :)

Those caps are really a Yellow Banana Skinny Cap (MTN), all they did was turn it pinkish.

If you inspect the cap closely you'll see they tried to erase the # on the top of it.

pink dot. those cans are for strait bombing

you can use alot of the euro caps for them grey dots, universal german outlines, pink dots ,orange dots, blue dots, etc. The reason they clog is probably due to the resin in the paint. I had a grip of those cans and had some problems also but, I found if you shake the paint for about 20 minutes, really well and use a new York fat cap , the cans were pretty solid and functional. Nice paint once its on the wall, but that whole resin and tar thing although understandable in theory is more of a hassle than its worth. Forget about the black line . I am not sure about the new cans but the original cans from a few years back swore me off that paint forever, mixing problems to say the least plus clogged caps and valves on almost every one I ever used. To me if your going for the good stuff for an outline or detail Montana 94,hardcore, or alien , and of course belton Molotow premium, are the only choice. To be fare I never used beat, clash, or monster..71seven dee one gang, always on the hunt for the next creative vision of color!!

Rusto fats hold up real nice... since the hole is so damn fat I don't think I've even had one clog on me yet?? Shit... I can't keep up with all these caps.. basically only use two kinds.. Rusto fats, and the black skinny's for Belton, NOT banana caps, but like with the triangular top where your finger sits. Can't really think of any reason to use any others, except ultra fats on chrome for some damage........................

The original red comfort tip are very uncommon these days. The shape and style its self is still around though.

Boston Thins and Boston Fats are bassed on them by design. Kilz has they're own comfort tips that are the same shape. But like both Boston thins and fats are a different color. Also the kilz caps are for the most part just big mouth blasto caps. Just mentioning those 3 caps for the sake of the topic.
