CAPS sooperthread

[rabiater]

slipone

Yes indeed, but the lvl 5 is actually Montana (as in german "montana"), not MTN (spanish).

[slipone]

oh shyt my bad. haha now i know which Montana it is.
thanks for the help tho.

[Schnitzel]

Can anybody share some knowledge re. how to modify caps to produce ultra skinny "pencil thin" lines... similar to the line work used in OsGemeos' characters.
http://www.milk-machine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/P1010088.JPG
I assume the idea is to restrict the paint flow through the cap. Possibly by putting something in the stem. Any help would be appreciated.
(Ps. I'm also aware that you can buy needle caps, but i'm interested in different ways of modifying everyday caps (skinnies and fats) not buying speciality caps)

simply press down on the can as you would normally

then do it at half the pressure - less paint will come out then maybe a little less pressure

then practice and practice it's what has made these guys so good

[slipone]

so was that the clash cap that i posted a page back or a fake? haha j/w

[androidx]

Do the needle caps work on walmart cans?




::lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

the trash can works on walmart cans

[Me No Post-ee]

Do German Outline caps work on American paint like Krylon, Rusto, Painters Touch, AmAccents, etc?

[bomberzbest1]

yes and good...

[VILE_ATX]

actually they CAN work on rusto SOMETIMES if your LUCKY. but they could also explode leaving paint all over your hands:)

[VILE_ATX]

i had a can of rusto chrome yesterday that even with a rusto fat exploded ecerywhere, i think the valve was messed up

[VILE_ATX]

actually i had used the stock for alot of it, then switched to fattie

i think the can was flawed

[bomberzbest1]

i use ny fats on rustos and it works like a charm....

[androidx]

Rusto fats have the best fat spray on the rusto cans.... how ironic?

[Me No Post-ee]

use stock caps for thin lines with rusto/PT/AA and rusto fat's for fat lines. don't use anything else on rusto/rusto brands. you'll thank me later.

Thanks for the info. Would Germans work on Krylon cans?

[VILE_ATX]

yeah

[bomberzbest1]

yeah it makes sense but who the hell wants to hear a whistling sound from the rusto caps when ur bombin... everyone uses what they want not what some other fools want u understand.....

[androidx]

That's what this thread is for; To give advice from personal experiences.

[Yuki Nagato]

i use ny fats on rustos and it works like a charm....

You do realize NY Fats don't work on rusto at all.

Nice little lie there bro, but if you put an NY fat on a rusto no paint will come through the nozzle it'll just gush out the side and make a big mess all over your hands. ;) :huh:

[M_I]

^same here....ive never gotten ny fats to work properly on rusto cans...
but krylon and ny fats is a diff. story!:D

[Yuki Nagato]

Krylon has excellent cap compatibility.
I just wish some of it's colours weren't so thin.

[bomberzbest1]

damn thats funny i got rusto paint spraying with a ny fat ......... i been for about 8 yrs.. it always works for me even on pt and aa paint cans...thats the tips i like

trial by fire....

burn

[bomberzbest1]

not even a rusto can...

[slipone]

the youtube video wasent even a rusto or rusto cap. its a a German montana Platnium with a Level 5 Cap.

[androidx]

I don't think it was in reference to the rusto talk. I think he just felt like posting that since this is the cap thread, and then just added that the whistling sound is better than having a gross bomb.

[slipone]

ooo ight i get whats your sayin now.

[Issac Brock]

What do yalls use for fats when you use montana?

[Blaise Pascal]

100%, Cheers

[VILE_ATX]

What do yalls use for fats when you use montana?

i like orange dots and pink dots.

[slipone]

what kinda montana? MTN or German Montana?

[VILE_ATX]

good qeustion, i was assuming he meant spanish

[androidx]

I use silver fats on both Montana's. Never really had any problem. Though, I'm usually using rusto, so I haven't had that much experience to begin with for those cans.

[sers1]

germans work perfect on rusto.
all rusto, ive heard that back in the day they didnt but i guess the new grey german outlines(vs. the black ones) work better. i saw some black ones on a web site labeled skinny bannana but thats just a nickname for german outlines as far as i was concerned.
anyone know the difference?
ny fats dontwork on rusto though, and dots will work for a while but they tend to explode because of the high pressure i guess. i would stay to stick with rusto fats for large areas,or take the risk and use a german fat or pink dot.

[VILE_ATX]

dumbass

Banana skinnies are different than german outlines.
They are infact the best skinny I have ever used.

[VILE_ATX]

which one is

[Yuki Nagato]

which one is

Are you referring to my post?

If so than I was saying that Banana Skinnies (black with yellow dot) are my favourite skinny cap to use.

[VILE_ATX]

me too i like black with white dot too, they might be the same

[Tim_One]

they should make rusto skinnies

[VILE_ATX]

agreed

[androidx]

Rusto stock caps are really skinny...??

[Yuki Nagato]

Rusto stock caps are really skinny...??

Yep, no need for a "rusto skinny" rusto stocks are by far the best stock cap in existence.

[slipone]

NY fats an NY thins for krylon fo sho....jus wanna add krylon cuz thers a lota rusto talk. hahah

[SHADER ONE PARIS]

::lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't see what's so F-ing funny...so they don't work just say so that's what this thread is for. The color place here in Cali comes with NY thins and the bannana caps work well on them as well (works on rusto too by the way). Not having tried the needle caps it didn't seem obvious they wouldn't....in my experience from back in Europe they worked on pretty much all the cans we had over there and are great for some nice handstyles.

f(_)ck this internet bullshit I'll just go try it next time.

[androidx]

I was laughing because WALMART PAINT SUCKS!!!

[steveparesucksgasm]

the walmart stock caps are not actually ny thins.
they sort of look like them, but theyre definitely not the same.


banana skinnies and rusto fats.
grey dots are good for piecing and shit, but if it doesnt work on rusto im usually not super into it.
rusto is the best shit, plus all the other brands except krylon come with dope stock caps.
krylon has some colors that are good for piecing, but i dont see myself using it for illegals unless im doing tags.

[AORAone]

krylons alright, but for the most part its prety weak. they sell nothing but camo colors here on this military instilaton, and they're all "ultra-flat" so lately ive been fuckin with ultra flat pieces. haha. i wish i was able to ship all my paint when they stationed me here.

[SODA 1]

how are you supposed to use ny fats on rusto? ive been able to be really gentle get a good line with them on rusto, but they always end up sputtering and running down the can. as for ny fats on painters touch, ive given up.

[VILE_ATX]

FUCK NY THINS! i was just taking a ny thin off of a can and the stem broke off inside releasing a ton of paint straight into my eye:zombie: :zombie: :zombie: ! that weak little son of a bitch stem just turned my whole fucking face greeni had to spray water into my eye with my little sink sprayer for like 5 minutes. my eyelashes have crusted paint in them. FUCK YOU NEW YORK THIN! FUCK YOU!

[VILE_ATX]

i used acetone, my face is clean but its all in my hair and shit

[androidx]

Talking from experience... use thinner, then wash it out with normal shampoo. Don't leave it in and wash your hair later. I know, who woulda thought? But forreal it works. It won't fuck your hair or your head up as long as you don't leave it in for prolonged periods.

[VILE_ATX]

acetone is nail polish remover

[VILE_ATX]

lol nope

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

FUCK NY THINS! i was just taking a ny thin off of a can and the stem broke off inside releasing a ton of paint straight into my eye:zombie: :zombie: :zombie: ! that weak little son of a bitch stem just turned my whole fucking face greeni had to spray water into my eye with my little sink sprayer for like 5 minutes. my eyelashes have crusted paint in them.

LMAO:lol:

[VILE_ATX]

lol it wasnt too fun

[RAWoNe]

i was mad drunk one night and tried mixin some paint, def got a face full of green paint too, love NY thins, fuckin drunk paint mixin.

[Me No Post-ee]

Is there a cap comparible to an NY thin that fits on Rusto paint?

[androidx]

Yeah, the stock cap.

[androidx]

EDIT, sorry double post. Whack internet connection.

[steveparesucksgasm]

Is there a cap comparible to an NY thin that fits on Rusto paint?

old school german outlines/banana skinnies.


i had mad good luck with ny thins in the winter, but when its over 40 they either leak right away or come out with a worse than stock line.

i been steady using banana skinnies for a minute here and i havent had leak one since i started except when i try to use clogged ones.

[fuck molly]

whatd\s the best fat cap for rusto tall cans? the rusto fats come out like a crappy thin cap

[androidx]

That's surprising. Rusto fats have always worked for me on the tall cans.

[Bruce_1nR]

I LOVE RUSTO FATS!!!!!!

Rusto fats and rusto stocks are all you need for a nights bombing!

But the fats are loud as hell...

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

I jsut used rusto fats on my black tall cans and the shit was fine i think they worked for the silver too im not sure.

[tragk]

does anyone know of the thinest cap that works on krylon or rusto?

[VILE_ATX]

grey dots on krylon stock on rusto

[slipone]

I think someone who HAS tried every cap PERSONALY on every can should make a chart or something to show people what caps for shure work on what cans. And then this thread can RIP with pride.
just sayin. cuz most of these questions are bring repeated. and all we really need is which caps work on what cans and then this thread has served its purpose....then again thats just me.

[VILE_ATX]

go for it

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

yeah i agree, for the thinnest grey dots easily you can make it like a little under a centimeter or just about one

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

when you use grey dots on krylon that shit comes out good as i dont know what, pretty thick and clean and doesnt drip its a must for fine pieces.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

oh yeah i almost forgot to say that the grey dots make krylon come out like some rusto thick shit it comes out reallly nice and really clean the only bad thing though is that they clog in about 15-20 mins of constant use on krylon, i think they are a must for nice detailed pieces.

[steveparesucksgasm]

on german montana, belton, and monster you can only use skinny stem caps.
(i.e grey dots, ny fats, belton outlines, etc etc etc.)

on hardcore and krylon you can use all caps, from rusto fats to grey dots and shit.
ny fats and grey dots and other skinny stem caps leak sometimes on montana but barely.


on rusto you can use rusto fats and banana skinnies/german outlines.


thats all, ever.
if you cant tell the difference between skinnier stem caps and wider stem caps, just fucking try it yourself. you may as well because thats how you find what works best for you.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

pretty much, lets gets some pics though

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

maybe ill post some then

[SHAB00BALAB00PY]

anyone ever herd of rocket caps....

[Muze One]

have you heard of people talking about them in this forum all the time

[tragk]

does anyone know if you cut the back of a MTN cap with an exacto knife so its like an NY fat or thin will it work?

[androidx]

MTN cap?

Anyways, No. You can't modify any cap. Well, I'm sure somehow you can, but you probably won't ever do it right.

[johnneh7]

what about home made caps? anyone make their own like me, or am i the only one?

[johnneh7]

im ordering the tipmix 2 from bombingscience. ill let you know the differences.

[SMOOTH-NUTS]

what about home made caps? anyone make their own like me, or am i the only one?

i make my own i love my homemades having a hard time making fat caps though

[djlotus]

aight so i know this has probably been asked like 30 times or so but what cans does a silver montana fattie work on?

walmart? krylon? rusto? american accents, even tho its just rusto?

[smithxi]

black micro?

[willgood]

sorry if this has been covered already but i took off the standard cap on my rusto and got this, whats the deal? what kinda cap will i use on it now to get a big spray?

yeah. you can either heat a needle to the point where it will widen it up, or try with a really sharp knife. i use the needle method to make montana level 4s a little bigger.

[willgood]

its been covered go back a couple pages or to the paint thread

i couldnt find it, could you link me or possibly just let me know?

[Yuki Nagato]

The weirdest fucking thing happened the other day, me and some other kids had an new york fat working perfectly of Painter's Touch, where as everytime before that when I've used one on it , the paint just gushed out down the sides of the can. :what: :confused:

[Yuki Nagato]

No i know that, but my homeboy put an Ny fat in and it worked despite me and my other friend telling him it wouldn't work, it was the weirdest thing ever.
>.>

[johnneh7]

maybe it was a weird fat... i dunno, dont use rusto much

[johnneh7]

We're all going to be fucked pretty soon.

no, because someone will start manufacturing caps to fit them like the ones we have now

[Fat Crispies]

those caps are hella good for hangovers. i dunno if anyone on this thread has ever done one, or even knows what they are, but the male painters touch cans have an "any angle spray" system, so the can works well upside down, as long as you have extra caps.

[Yuki Nagato]

Really? I never knew that.

But I don't plan on hanging upside down off a building anytime soon.

[Yuki Nagato]

maybe it was a weird fat... i dunno, dont use rusto much

I dunno there was something weird going on with it, but whatever I only ever use the stocks on rusto anyways.

[johnneh7]

yeah. rusto stock caps are weird too though, they fit on like every american brand, even those tiny Testers cans for model cars. crazy stuff...

[johnneh7]

repost from spraypaint thread

every time i use rusto it always skips. that why i stick to german or spanish paint. i never have problems with them.

plus the stock rusto caps clog easy, and when you're in the middle of a tag and thats the only cap, you cant just leave it, so i un-clog the cap with my mouth. tastes bad, but you can spit it out. the trick is to blow, not suck (i can feel some straight up perv comments on that one) and if you do it right you dont get any paint in your mouth, but a little on your lips.

[Yuki Nagato]

So you blow eh?
How much do ya charge?

[johnneh7]

saw that coming

[Sleet]

BECAUSE IT'S A RUSTO BRAND PAINT USE RUSTO FATS

My NY fats work fine with rusto, only certain painters touch cans will mess up every now and then. Same goes with my pink dots..

[johnneh7]

yeah krylon skips worse. like when the paint cuts out and then back on. and you get a gap in your line.

[androidx]

I have witnessed this to krylon, but never to rusto.

[johnneh7]

LUCK. maybe i just get all defects...

[Fat Crispies]

Are you guys kidding? I piece with krylon, rusto, even sometimes dollar cans and that shit doesnt skip whatsoever, stick a german cap on either rusto or krylon and that line turns out hella clean (if you know what youre doing) ^ i am pretty sure if you (johnneh7) paint more than like once a year you are not getting all defects. What kind of caps do you use when you bomb and on what cans (johnneh7), because if its skipping its probably you, not the can..

but it sounds like most of the people in this thread are just learning so i can understand that.

[johnneh7]

i've used rusto alot in the past put i saw the quality decrease, i have to say, rusto WAS the shit, but i dont like it since i've used german. i tried krylon too, but i like rusto way more. ill post a picture of what it looked like when i sprayed, i mean, my style, i think, kinda sucks, but the skipping made it look awful, it looked like

j7 on a quick tag i was just throwing up. it totally cut out on the j but i didnt have time to fix it, there was about ten people within 5 feet of me, construction workers too, and i had allready tagged their shit, so if i got caught, that would suck. so id rather use german rather risk it, but i still ocasionally use rusto

[Fat Crispies]

Dude there is no way in hell i would pay for premium (usually european brand) paints to hit tags and throwies with.. until you can bust a decent piece i tihnk you need to get a little better with the normal stuff before moving on to premium shit. but thats just my 2 cents..

[johnneh7]

well, i dont pay for my paint... i got this deal on it so its not my money.

[Fat Crispies]

well then your a baller.

[johnneh7]

i dont really know what you mean by that....

[johnneh7]

i was skating downtown and me and a couple friends hit up this secret skate spot with "legal" walls BUT TOTAL TOYS PAINTED THERE! well, there was a couple handstyles that were tight, but thats about it. i would have got up, but i had no cans at all. oh yeah, i posted this here because i found five caps. four that are stock, i think rusto, they're red. and one fat that i just tested, it has an orange dot, but its an american style cap.. idk what it is

"i wouldve got up?" didnt you just say it was a legal wall? its a rusto fat why dont you read the forum before telling these awesome stories about how you almost painted a legal wall!

[johnneh7]

no, it wasnt legal technically, but there are so many more problems in the area cops just stop to make sure your not writing a gang symbol/ name and leave

[VILE_ATX]

dude first of all dont be callin ANYBODY a toy until you learn what the fuck a rusto fat is. second we dont care if you ALMOST got up. third we dont care if you ACTUALLY got up. end of story

SORRY THAT I DONT USE RUSTO PAINT AND HAVE NO NEED FOR ONE.

but im not starting anything on the web. thanks for the help anyways

[SHAB00BALAB00PY]

i just saw some tags and
it was fatter than a level 5 montana cap on a montana but the spray was more solid....
i dont think he used a montana because who goes bombing with montanas?anyways it was obviously more than 2 cans and this is a writer that has been writing for a while...so why spend all tht money?
is there a way u can make the level 5 bigger
or what do u think he did....

[Yuki Nagato]

Was probably just a Level 5 on a different kind of can, different can's have different pressures
higher pressure = fatter spray.


He could have held the can further away and went slower too.

[johnneh7]

a heated sewing needle.

[Fat Crispies]

Montana megas havee way higher pressure. but who gives a fuck what he used?

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

tit was probably a moded cap, he got lucky or something and he probably perfected it.

[SERS]

what are those astro fat caps on the MTN site? are they just clear oooo

"Yo, I be up in galleries tomorrow..."

[Issac Brock]

Quick question that hopefully will be answered before I leave--I haven't used ny thins in a while, but i'm almost out of caps and its all I have..do ny thins explode with rusto just like the fats do?

[Fat Crispies]

yessir its the same valve system.ny thins are shit anyways. i rock NY FATS AND GERMAN OUTLINES.

[Issac Brock]

Yeah, I usually have german thins, but I had to ditch all of my caps a while ago. Time to buy new ones.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

yeah man just went to the RP today and ny thins worked good as I dont know what. maybe because of the weather or something but im not sure. The german 2's did not work on rusto for me, so this leads me to ask, what are ur favorite crisp outline caps, everyone?

i dont like outlining wif rusto, stutters too much ;)

but i'm curious what caps other people use for diff purposes, like handstyles or fillin in.

i like german thins wif krylon ufb, for some really good flares, or just some really thin lines.
i also like pink dots for a HUGE, soft tag. either that or a really fat, solid tag.




hopefully this'll insight something other than craptalkin between people or whatever.

p.s.: ive got a blue dot, havent used it yet, so i was wonderin if anyone can give me some insight on how they spray, do they easily clog, etc...


k thx bai.

rusto fats or ny fats for almost everything, switch up between stocks or ny thins for outlines or highlights...

too many fucking caps, kids are trying to get too fancy with special caps, and have no skill... quit worrying about caps, learn to paint.

abcd, that wasn't directed at you, it was directed at the vast majority of kids talking about what caps are good for what, NY Thins and Fats... thats all you need.

[Fat Crispies]

hahaha

[+WAR+]

so i just got a bunch of NY fats and thins, Rusto Fats, and German outlines... they all were shit except for the Rusto fats. i tryed em on rusto krylon, and some store brand paints. the NY worked ok on krylon but not on rusto.. and the german outlines were just fucked up on all of em..

well that was just an opinion, but whatever.


and ya i tried the blue dot and its basically a rusto fat but it doesnt whistle, and it sprays alot softer, so it doesnt kill a can of krylon.

one of my new faves.

pretty good for fills and fat tags.

[slipone]

Blue dots sound coo. i think i might have to cop me some just for writes.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

there are 2 kinds though, ones that are all grey and blue and the ones with all white and blue.

[androidx]

there are 2 kinds though, ones that are all grey and blue and the ones with all white and blue.

Yeah, that had me confused for a while.

I don't really think there's a difference, though. I may be wrong. Someone help me on this??

[stay cruel]

All I really ever work with are stock tips and fats (rusto fat for rustoleum, or NY fat on krylon).. I usually like a german outline cap for a handstyle gives it a cool flare.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but.. If you go to an art store or hardware store and find some Elmer's spray adhesive take a good look at the cap. It's a rusto fat cap..

Now I'll never have to pay for rusto fats again haha.

[night]

^^^ya its been mentioned plenty. krylon workable fix-a-tiv has ny thins, and krylon h2o has ny fats also.

i didnt know their was more than one kind of blue dot, but the one i described was a white hood blue dot. and i've only tried it on krylon (since rustoleum already has the perfect rusto fat for its brand).

basically the blue dot is a rusto fat for krylons.

[Fat Crispies]

not really, less overspray, cleaner line, better fades, its fat and crispy like my name.

not to sound like a toy, but I would appreciate it if sumone would please explain to me how the fuck do you do flare tags? is there a special kind of cap used?

[slipone]

u can flare with any type of cap. it just requires skill aka can control. Ive meet a few people who can flare with stock caps. believe me or not but its what ive seen done b4

[androidx]

It's easier with fat caps(atleast for me), but you can use any cap. Just give a good flick of the wrist. It's not that hard and doesn't take long at all to get it down.

i think it looks alot better with a fat, but like they said you can do it with any of them.

just pull up and away.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

yeah usually works good with "harder caps" like the ones that meake harder lines, for rusto use NY Thins, work like a charm

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

anyone see flares with a level 4 silver cap, i think on montana black it works the best but its like a flare but its still "hard" instead of "feathery" like on regular flares. ima try some on spn. mtn. in like an hour though.

[night]

... less overspray, cleaner line, better fades, its fat and crispy like my name.

good definition for a blue dot.

and if you want flares, just experiment.

german thins (thin cap) and pink dots (fat cap) on krylon ufb are my faves for flares.
try ny thins too.

k thx bai.

[SERS]

none of my caps work on my mtn guacamoly green they dont fit and when i force them on and spray it doesnt stop! anyone no why?

[porism]

too lazy to see if this has been posted anywhere on this thread...i found a "how-to" for la caps or hex caps.
1= Get a regular cover off any krylon rusto etc.

2= you want the center part. Begin to cut off the excess plastic

3= Once you have center part by its self, its time to cut enough off to
fit your finger in. i find using a bench grinder works fast. if you dont have
access to a grinder, use an exacto. be carefull though the plastic cracks easy.

4= After you made the space for your finger, get a needle, thumb tack,
pin etc. and heat it up with a lighter till it gets red hot. Then make a hole
in the middle and move it around in a lil circle once or twice. Dont make the hole too high or too low ,if you do no paint will go through.

5= Put it ontop of the can to make sure it fits good, if you grinded
(cut) too much from the center part the cap will fit too lose and not stay on.

6= When using the stencil/thin cap make sure to tilt the can upside down
and flick the paint out, due to the small about of paint exiting the hole it
will build up in the can and leak out and that will make a fucking mess and/or
paint will spill onto your piece.

get really fucking thin lines.

[johnneh7]

heres a brief explanation for caps i found on youtube

[slipone]

the Bombshelter is better, they give better explanitations, with they would try it out on rustos and krylons though.

[johnneh7]

yeah bombshelters good, but i didnt feel like posting a bunch of links, and about those adhesive cans, you can get caligraphy caps off some too.

RUSTO FATS- PURPLE TOP
CHISEL CAPS- YELLOW TOP.

havent tried them yet, and i dont have a camera for pics. ill try to get one though, if you dont know what im talking about

[rumblefish]

simply press down on the can as you would normally

then do it at half the pressure - less paint will come out then maybe a little less pressure

then practice and practice it's what has made these guys so good

hold the can upside down and very close to the wall.

[Yuki Nagato]

Uhh what are you talking about?
Someing about purple grapes and yellow bananas?

[johnneh7]

Uhh what are you talking about?

you know those calligraphy caps? they have a turning center... well they are also caps on adhesive spray. the ones with normal rusto fats have a purple lid on the can, and the caps are red.

the calligraphy caps are black with a yellow center and have a hood like a german cap, the lids on those cans are yellow.

that help any?

[androidx]

walmart.

[johnneh7]

walmart.

huh?

Rusto fats are white with an orange dot, not red.
Rusto stocks are red.

I didn't know about chisel caps being on spray adhesive though.
But if I wanted a chisel tip I'd get a can of no name brand paint with one of those integrated chisel caps, decent quality paint too.

[johnneh7]

well they arent actual rusto fats.

but they spray the same.

didnt you read that post at the top of the page?

[Yuki Nagato]

No what post?
I am confused.

huh?

Post before me was talking about racking caps off of cans at stores, or so I though. And If I'm right then I rack the same caps you were talking about.

I took a good walk around walmart and sprayed any aerosol can I could find. Found a few good different caps on some cans. Mine now!

[AyteYourCookies]

Does a ny fat come out fatter on krylon or painter touch?

[Yuki Nagato]

Does a ny fat come out fatter on krylon or painter touch?

NY fat's don't work on painter's touch 99.99999999999999999% of the time.

[slipone]

they come fatter on KRYLON

[Oliver Clothesoff]

LA fats are better

[sk8er6]

repost from spraypaint thread

every time i use rusto it always skips. that why i stick to german or spanish paint. i never have problems with them.

plus the stock rusto caps clog easy, and when you're in the middle of a tag and thats the only cap, you cant just leave it, so i un-clog the cap with my mouth. tastes bad, but you can spit it out. the trick is to blow, not suck (i can feel some straight up perv comments on that one) and if you do it right you dont get any paint in your mouth, but a little on your lips.

jesus man, just spray the can upside down. damn, getting all freaky and shit

[RAZE]

look- pink dots,with rusto are the shit
orange dots with rusto-the shit(a little less wider but better if ur conservitive with ur paint)
red calligraphys-rusto- really wide(too wide,too heavy)
white caligraphys-rusto-perfect width is almost half the red one i talked about,not as heavy,but a hair over medium weight.

-all tried with rusto

[VILE_ATX]

pink dots on rusto? hah good luck

[Mago_Soad]

i think the best cap to use on brick walls, is those from break cleaners.

the paint goes deep into the wall and its harder for the graffiti blasters to remove it

wat you think?

[SLIPoner]

i think tht Graffiti will get buffed either way. thats just what i think though.

[SERS]

it doesnt madder ow hard u spray the paint to get it deep in the wall. the serface has to be pourus or absourbant. those caps are just a waist of paint. unless u want a serriously drippy tag

[twoohsickness]

i heard that ny caps are known for exploding on krylon, can anyone confirm that?

[slipone]

fuck what u herd. haha NY fats work perfect on Krylon. Read this whole thread and thats all ull read.

[Bruce_1nR]

*sigh* Whats a good cap for doing handstyles on a regular rusto?*sigh*

[slipone]

For rustos u can try using a rusto fat, or try fitting a NY fat on it. But the NY fat wont come out as clean as it woud on Krylon, if it fits on the rusto.

[johnneh7]

i heard that ny caps are known for exploding on krylon, can anyone confirm that?

thats rusto. what you heard was bull.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

use ny thins for rusto. ny thins and rustos are the only ones u can really get a clean line with.

[slipone]

Actually the Stock caps that it comes with is good also.

[Yuki Nagato]

Actually the Stock caps that it comes with is good also.

Dude speaks the truth.
But if you got Ny Thins use em instead.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

hey does anyone know if u can use TSP (tri-sodium-phosphate) to clean caps. Accidentally

Oh yeah dont try to mod rusto caps for rusto the shit wont go on, pretty wierd actually.

[slipone]

maybe you should complain to him. not us.

[SERS]

This is said kid

maybe the kid just paints a bunch

[streettrash38]

does anyone know how to get the new painters touch caps off?

[androidx]

Yeah, you pull them off. But if you're talking about the little tube thing. It won't work. I already tried taking one apart and even if you get that out a normal cap won't work.

[streettrash38]

yeah i was talking about that little tube, fuck that sucks

[nydaBFC]

What's the cheapest online store for caps? Mainly interested in getting more grey dots, orange dots, ny fats, and rusto fats.

[Bert]

What is a good cap that produces a clean medium size line (like two fingers width) that will work on montana, im talking worthy of clean tags or outline oh and thats pressure is high enough that it wont sputter if your too far away from ze wall. YADIDIDIDIDI?

[SMOOTH-NUTS]

TRY A NY FAT AND WHY WOULD YOU DO TAGS WITH MONTANA

ny thin gives a medium sized line

[Bert]

TRY A NY FAT AND WHY WOULD YOU DO TAGS WITH MONTANA

Because if you have some krylon and some montana, you piece and practice your shit wherever with the kry and when its time to hit the streets with whatever high quality shit that wont fade and looks fly

[Knim_One]

fair enough

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

true true. man this can of spanish montana that i got from my friend is messin up.
It has only one mixer ball in it, and all of the caps i normally use work funny as hell on it,
its freakin weird. Anyone ever encounter this problem

[sk8er6]

does anyone else use homemade cooking spray fatcaps?

[SMOOTH-NUTS]

PLEASE TELL US MORE POST PICS IF YOU CAN^^^

[Knim_One]

ok so ive been usin NY anf rusto fats mosyly (really like the rusto fats on rusto) but im havin a hard time gettin my flares to really kick. maybe a fatter cap like a pink dot is more suited for something like.. (stolen flic). Im just wonderin here, obv this guy has real nice can control and thats a big part.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/188/481020314_b4d94a111d_o.jpg

[night]

that looks like a pink dot

maybe a blue dot

i'm not sure if itll look like that on krylon thow. maybe.

[Fat Crispies]

not a blue dot. maybe NY on weekend paint.

[Knim_One]

the fuck is weekend paint

you guys see the tips on those cans?... you can adjust them and flare with em .. not too practical though.

[Bert]

are you kidding? those are so shitty. They are the same as a calligraphy cap, meaning a vertical line good for fill ins at best, but nonething else unless you've mastered calligraphy tips

[Knim_One]

well at least there is a good source for calligraphy tips so he can master them

[johnneh7]

you can get black and yellow calligraphy caps from 3m adhesive spray

[CaptainKOOK]

http://www.autobarndeals.com/catalog/duauspcltopc.jpg

you guys see the tips on those cans?... you can adjust them and flare with em .. not too practical though.

I use these cans for fills ONLY. The tip is calligraphy and its good for fills, but not so hot for outlines and such. Thats what I use em for. Plus they are easy to rack. Any automotive place should have them and they are not locked up. Checker, Auto Zone, Pep Boys, Etc.

[abcdhfhaskjdh]

dupli color covers pretty good, well i know that the purple and the royal blue do.(the purple looks like FX cru/CES purple from molotow, not as strong though)

[AllMetal]

does anyone know how to get the new painters touch caps off?

ya cut a slit in the tube just like any fat cap and mix it into another can thats the best way to do it....
