[dBking]

the tire cleaner with the trigger works great with long distance blaster cap type handstyles.

The Tire cleaner is BLACK MAGIC. should be the one with the clear plastic cap.

I USED TO SWEAR BY GRAY DOTS ON BELTON.

THEY BEEN OVERSPRAYING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE LINE LATLEY!

AHHHH THE OLD DAYS OF STEALING PHANTOMS OFF THE GREEN AND RED TESTOR CANS!
I MISS THEM.

[IRON CHEF]

WHY DID A "LAST EDITED BY" JUST POP UP AT THE BOTTOM THE SECOND I POSTED THAT?
THERE IS NOTHING EDITED, AND THERE WAS NO TIME FOR SOMEONE TO "EDIT"

ANYONE EVER NOTICE THAT?

[DaOnlyQue]

[PINT]

whats the fattest cap that will work on a color place.

im thinking quick shitty paint fills.

[johnneh7]

look at this young gun thinking he can come right in and demand information.
search. or at least give some info that we might use.

[sread]

hey they have caligraphy caps on 3m adhesive glue spray shit

[DaOnlyQue]

Dont really noe if people use calligraphy caps anymore..

[ɞℓiɴĸ]

So only make recommendations on things that are current trends or what?

[DaOnlyQue]

Nah cuz some people mite still use em..

[sread]

well its better then buying them

[dBking]

boys, boys boys! calm down. listen up, get an elmer fat off of the elmers orange spray adhesive. the kind with the roundy edges. or stoner's glass cleaner i heard has them too. it is a narrow cap that is kinda oblong and fits your finger very well with a black dot. the ones that look like stock caps with the orange dots are good too, but not as smooth.

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

DB...

you are still confused my friend.

Elmer's Glue has fat caps.

Stoner's Glass Cleaners has Boston Thins. (still waiting for my shipment btw)

alright, im new to the site sorta and ive been painting for the past 10 years on the eastcoast...i have a question that has been plaguing me.......i understand that we have acess to caps Via online graff shops/shops....But is there a company that produces caps? and if so what would be a contact or website?...id love to do a bulk order on them fresh from a factroy or something...imagine the possibilities, so i guess the main question is..who makes caps? and websites....thanks alot

[Feed Yer Ego]

it's already been discussed on this thread, recently even

they don't want to sell to writers and don't want to sell less than 10,000 at a time

[dBking]

[IRON CHEF]

aren't phantoms = ny thins?

YES SAME CAP.
THE BEST NY THINS I EVER USED WERE OFF TESTORS MODEL PAINT (THE SMALL CAN)
RED AND GREEN HAD EM.

WHERE THE BLACK DOT IS THERE WAS AN INDENTION AROUND THE WHOLE.

THE NY THINS IV'E USED FROM NUMEROUS PLACES DONT COMPARE.

i am sure if you email any of the big graffiti shops (oink, artprimo, etc...), they can hook you up with more than they advertise.

HAS ANYONE EVER COME ACROSS A THIN CAP THAT LOOKS LIKE A BLACK DOT BUT SLIGHTLY SMALLER AND THINNER PLASTIC? IT IS THE GREATEST OUTLINE/SKINNY CAP EVER MADE FOR RUSTO...BETTER THAN NY THINS AND BOSTONS



i used to get 'em off of something at wal-mart that had a slightly clear top cap and was kinda over by the paint

i'll see if i can get a decent pic

[Nightscrawler]

I just got my boston thins and fats a couple days ago.







umad?









but seriously, they work pretty well on the new rusto cans. pretty fine, solid line with the thin and a fat, misty line on the fats. Although the pressure you apply does change it drastically. its hard to explain.
maybe ill post a shot of the lines if you really want.

[Feed Yer Ego]

ah man come on

we all been on those bostons

[Nightscrawler]

wait what?
u been on em, like you have them? or your trying to get them?

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

Trout's been out of Boston Thins for 3 weeks now, you must be talking about the female tips?

[dBking]

HAHAHAHA not just pwned, but "pwnt"



yeah man, we all been on them, as in, we have been there, done that, and done the rackede cap comparison, even with the variable pressure study like the "hard to explain" reason why more paints come out the harder you press.



yeh, i guess you could say we have been there...

[dBking]

nah ive tried... he gets mad jewish about breaking off a bunch... i dont know if he like just doesnt wanna sell that many, but on more than two occasions he has been like nah, all i have is like 50 laying around...

[Nightscrawler]

i done fucked up.

i thought the bostons were the female caps... someone post a pic w/ the names of all these new caps next to em please!

i gotta get my graff n dance lingo down

[realeyesx3]

ok racked caps without looking

took montana gold tips a white and a red...will this work on rustoleum

again montaa GOLDS...idk what that means but am i gonna start a piece and clog halfway through
:confused:

[injury]

will this work on rustoleum

no chance in hell

[realeyesx3]

thank you injury




FUCK

[injury]

thank you injury




FUCK

those caps (level 3's i think are the whites with cream/green centers) work wonders on old cans of krylon. seriously dope. if you can track any down.. they're worth it.

stick with rusto fats and the boston thins we discuss in here so frequently if you paint with rusto

[orarok08]

I mainly use Rusto. I only use Ny Thins. A can seems to last longer and I get crisp lines.

[Kalashnikov]

I picked up some Montana Black, tried a banana skinny on them, rusto stock, and another thin cap that I don't know the name of, it's a euro cap, white with black dot... and NONE of them worked. The only thin I can get to work with it is the stock gray one that came with it, but I don't have enough. What the fuck? You can use rusto stocks on Spanish Montana, what gives?

[orarok08]

If I use European paints, I use only the yellow Universal Skinny and Bomber's Best Silver Fat. Works on most cans. Stateside and European paint.

[johnneh7]

i fucking hate those silver caps.
straight golds and pinks.

[DaOnlyQue]

i do believe montana black
is different company from Spanish montana
rite ?

[johnneh7]

Yessir,

montana black & gold is german.

they stole the name from the OG
spainish MTN hardcore/ 94/ alien

[MeMiselfANDeye]

have any of u used a level 5 montana cap the gold one? by far thee fattest cap ive used.
good for top to bottom fill ins.

[YearzOne]

i fucking hate those silver caps.
straight golds and pinks.

Yes indeed, although the golds clog so fucking quick. Best outline/detail cap my opinion.

[dBking]

aigfht so about the guy talking about the level 5 fats.....


hhhhhhh......

i bought some of these, and they were yes indeed able to make a circle 11 inches in diameter. bu7t my beef with these ridiculously huge caps is that although you can pass the can over the wall less time4s and get more coverage, it just looks like shit because where a rusto fat would lay down a 90% opacity line, the lvl 5 is putting downh like 20% or less, and from KRYLON no less.

and unless you use euro paint, krylon is the only american brand that could acheive the full wide size of the lvl 5.

if you ever used fat caps on rusto, you wonder why you arent getting those thick tubular lines that you see on all the demo videos, then you realize that rusto and most other american brands (most are made by RPM which makes rusto...) dont spray as wide.


and to me i think that is mad gay. so i stick with rusto fats, elmer fats, and boston thins.

that is for bombing only because they are 100% reliable and almost never clog.

as for when im grafndancing i dont use such caps, because i use teh rusto 2x which is female and i think hands down everybody knows which caps to use for that, if the last 3 or 4 pages dont say it enough... *cough* trout

CLOGGED 9 GREYDOTS IN A ROW ON A ORANGE BELTON.

BAD LUCK IS FOLLOWING ME AROUND.

[Feed Yer Ego]

grey dots are just not what's up

[orarok08]

Grey dots are alright. I straight up use them on Krylon cans for nice crisp lines.

[Lasek]

you guys ever use pesticide sprayers? its liek a fire extinguisher, but fatter and huge flairs

[johnneh7]

yeah your late on that one

[LatinoPride88]

jus wanted ta say that elmers fats is fuckin dope on rusto lol

[orarok08]

I checked out a can of Elmers. I guess they changed their cap. Before they looked like Rusto Fats, now they look like Boston Thins. What gives?

[NoXi]

Rack those, they give a fatter spray then rusto fats.

[LatinoPride88]

orarok, elmers spray adhisives got 2 different kind of caps and cans. the round can with a small top has the ones that look lik bostons. the regular shape cans got rusto fats ese

[dBking]

i love them both.

no matter which cap is on it, i always know that an elmer's can always has good times for rusto.

i have rustoleum in my veins.

[tripple sicx]

true that^^^^

[IRON CHEF]

an elmer's can always has good times for rusto.

Perfectly worded!:cool:

[dBking]

seriously though.. they must have some serious graff heads in a key position at elmer's just giggling to themselves...

i wish i could contact elmers and just buy like 10 grand of those elmer fats. i bet they would break it off real cheap.....


bigmetalcircus, holler at me. we should go in half on a large order. you sell em, and i paint with em.

[iWeigh650]

wat are boston thins?

[dBking]

same thing as elmer fat but waaaaaay skinnier and in my opinion, the best skinny cap for rusto.

[561!]

seriously such a good cap. nice and clean line. and they're fr33

[dBking]

yup cant beat free

[Feed Yer Ego]

ever get your extinguishers db?



i still haven't gone to the shop to get some...

fail @ me for being lazy

but there's always random ass monsoon weather, so i haven't been on late night graff n dance walks much anyways

some fats for your pt

[orarok08]

Neutrogena? Does it have a solid fill or a hollow circle.

[561!]

those look the same as pam caps only red

[merwhale]

pretty solid circle and they are pretty much the same as the pam ones, i think they are a bit cleaner but i dont remember havent used as many,

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

I've used them, Neutrogena is using them for a ton of their sun screen/block products, in a bunch of different colors to go with their different lines/packaging looks. I think the PAM ones are a bit better than them, but I'm still partial to the ones I sell :)

on that note no i havent.

on that note no i havent.

blasters + straws?

[dBking]

yeh they are tire cleaner cans that have these trigger tops. the tops are black with a red trigger. one of my caps has a black trigger, but i dont remember it being from another brand.

[dBking]

kind of like that RAID bug spray for wasps that shoots for miles.



oh and btw about those neutorogena caps, AP sells them in bulk.

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

No, AP has different shitty ones that break when you want to take them off and cost $3.99 for 10. They also suck.

The Neutrogena ones are fat caps that are the same body as the PAM caps, only in a different color.

[orarok08]

Raid has a good outline cap for Painter's Touch. Little bigger than a NY Thin.

[MarkAll]

grey dots are just not what's up

If your a baller and use montana gold they are what's up. You can watch the paint come out of the can...

[MeMiselfANDeye]

are these different than the black dots?

do they have very subtle ridges?

do they work on rusto?

A black dot comes on these

more of a medium I think haven't used one in ages.

Ac Moore Carries that line...not sure about Michaels

[561!]

ac moore is the shit

[johnneh7]

idk, the ac moore here never has shit,
if your actually looking for it. like if i
go in looking for a paintbrush that i got
at that same store 3 months ago, i usually
never find it again.

of course its not like that with cans and such,
im just saying, they dont restock well.

/rant

[561!]

same here takes awhile to restock on some colors of paint.
then again I've come to realize little toys have blown it up.

What is the best fatcap to converse paint while still getting thick lines?
(For tagging) Also, i was mucking with some thinner racked caps, and i scraped it with an exacto (the hole the spray comes out of) and it seemed to give it thicker lines.

[561!]

Converse? you mean conserve?

[dBking]

elmer fat and rusto fat.

[\\KNUX//]

I checked out a can of Elmers. I guess they changed their cap. Before they looked like Rusto Fats, now they look like Boston Thins. What gives?

i racked one of these caps the day it came out, got all buzzed on the fumes, wrote like a 6 page review and cought shit from 2/3 of the people on 12oz. if i remember right cleanest lines ive ever got from rusto, medium-thin, and you might have to cut some of the hood iff, it wouldnt go down on some can but i cant remember what.

5" at 8"...female cap

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

good find.

[dBking]

whats the range like on it?

[dBking]

well???

[Edward Orenthal Norton]

i got the sekt cap adapter yesterday from oink and it isnt all its cracked up to be. its pain to keep the little rubber part in the center in the thing. i tried to mix with some paint with them and the paint doesnt mix for shit. i lost the pressure out of a whole can. but they only work well with euro/button caps. they tend reject/squeeze out american/stem caps. but i did just use the adapter by itself and it shoots out a pretty far stream. i was able to get it to spray up to 10 feet tall on a wall. pretty dope little mini extinguisher kind of cap. i wouldnt waste my money and buy 20 of these. probaly just get 2 or 3 of them. they tend to fall apart. but still have some use.

[dBking]

thanks for the review

75 pages is too many for my lazy ass to dig thru to find the answer i want

basically. i am not interested in the fancy european caps. Ny and rusto is how
i roll. My question is..... What cans will i get the best results with?
let me rephrase. What brand and can should
i expect to get the best results
with when using a NY thin? Other than that I will always use a rusto and
rustoleum for fills.

What is a bad combination to use?

that shit is not very thin or soft or awesome

[dBking]

hush now ^^

that cap is the shit when used as a thin cap, with the identical looking but different elmer fat cap as the fat cap for fills.

i think you may be thinking about an elmer fat, because until trout sent me one of his boston thins, i thought they were identical, but were two quite very different and equally usefull caps.

i just dont think you guys are giving that cap a fair shake.

i have replaced the rusto fat with the elmer fat in my everyday use, and i have replaced all thin caps with that rusto thin. it just works.

any cats that use rusto will know the significance of that statement.

^^ 90% agreed, my man

although i haven't gotten my hands on elmer fats yet, boston thins are the truth. i've painted one big legal jam before and some of the dudes i was with were siced as hell about those caps, amazed at what they could do. final outline/detail/etc. it makes piecing a breeze. good for hands too if you have he right kind

i still love NY thins on rusto though. i do a lot of fades in my fills, and NY thins have a softness and size thats just perfect. also good for hands..

nah doggie don't get it twisted

they work like a charm but not on harbor blue. do a comparison on the lines and spray you get from any other color to harbor blue

Heh for random ass caps...
Pam caps
giorgio armani caps

[wisetuxedo]

rip harbour blue...

[.........]

has anyone tried those cap adapters that oink art is selling?

[johnneh7]

discussed on the last few pages.

[Im Donnie Darko]

has anyone tried those cap adapters that oink art is selling?

Even though its already been said...
There really good and oink has cheap prices 1.75, if you put the Sekt cap adapter on with out a cap and push down on the side it sprays like a small fire extinguisher.. you should try that out.

[.........]

thanks, I could've sworn I checked back a few pages, maybe I didn't go far enough back

[dBking]

speaking of fire extinguishers, im rocking a wd40 cap (the bendy kind with the long range and short range all in one cap.)

if you have painted with one you know what i mean... the long end gets crazy distance like a sekt, and the short end gets real skinny lines for like close to the wall handstyles.

shit is red hot.

and the new tire shine caps arent worth dick. i actually paid for a can (you have to pay for SOMETHING) and when i got home (on very shiny tires might i add,...) i put it on the can and the shit is too big for the stem of the can so what i am going to do is either increase the size of the stem with a few rounds of clear tape andf a a dab of super glue, or i will actually just melt the inside of the cap and press my lighter on it and make a new hole for it.


by the way i dont know if i told you guys about that but to adapt non standard hair spray caps onto a thinnnner downstem like on a painters touch, heat up a roofing nail or something flat and press it on the big hole so that it seals, and then use an exacto or something to poke aq hole the size of the stem you need, just like they used to make the YL fat cap that oink used to sell

same concept, different cap.


hope this helps someone. i am a shit typer right now. just got tangled into a 4 foot bong and got my ass handed to me.

[direcmoney]

yo whats the cheapest site for caps?

yo whats the cheapest site for caps?

Oink art has 100 packs of NY fat, NY skinny, Rusto Fats for 6.25
50 Black dots,orange dots, pink dots, Gold dot (skinnies) for 9.50

Art primo has 1000 packs of NY fat, NY skinny, Rustos for 46.99
The rest of their 100 packs are under 20

I'm not being a dick and telling you to look for it yourself for some reason.

[dBking]

im bout to cop a few homax caps. havent tried them yet. ill let yall know when i try it out.

i made an adapter to adapt caps for wide stems onto small stems without melting anything.

specifically the little trigger cap on the tire shine cans. i sliced the pointy top off of a clicky pen (the end you write from) which is a little cone. the stem goes in the cone, the cone goes in the cap. a little bit of paint dripped onto it sealed it on there nice.

but at first the cap just spewed paint everywhere when i first put the adapter in, but opnce the paint in the cap dried, it made it water tight so the shit doesnt leak. i love this cap.

about that wd40 bendy thing, you can put let say a ny in the end of the long tip and sprays just like ny...you have to work out the awkward ass angle though lol.

might build up pressure and pop out.

maybe it would, idk the way you described it makes
it seem like they would be unstable and rock back and fourth

the cap doesnt rock back and forth. remember, this is tire shine caps we are talking about. they look like a little fire extinguisher with a red trigger.

the base of the cap grabs the can. it sprays just fine once you get the paint that leaks out to dry. it seals everything in place. at least it did for me.

i built it, it leaked, i got tired and went to bed. the next day i tried it out to get a better look at where the leak was coming from, and no leak! so i could only assume the leaky paint sealed whatever leaks i had.

now i must go take a leak whil;e i eat leeks

You dont need those pink shitters to use NY fats and Fixxies on Rusto's AA's and PT. Im not going to tell you how. But there's no need to pay for the pink adapter when you can make your own super easy.

They're called 'Extinguisher Caps' and you can grab them here (http://www.33third.com/SectionPages/ItemDetail.aspx?prodid=6c541744-4df3-413c-8bf8-71d4af33c56c&catid=3d760dbe-abea-4920-b180-f5dc83d74867).

dude said what are the caps tko uses,
not FIRE EXTINGUISHERS, but the cap that fits on the can.
if that cap is referred to as a fire extinguisher cap,
then so be it, but thats what hes looking for,

a cap, not the actual tin that contains white powder used
for dousing fires.

step to this, bitch.

[NoLossEnds]

Yeah sure. But you can also burn your paint in only a few tags. Plus they can make a mess. The only thing those large mouth caps are really good for is mixxing paint.

[johnneh7]

glad we got that cleared up.

[Edward Orenthal Norton]

that chart seems off. ive found NY fats to be wider than rusto fats. whatever.
if i had to be stuck with one cap for the rest of my life it would probaly be a NY fat.

agreed

[Alect1CH]

i really only bomb throws and occasional straight letters so its rusto fats and old krylon stocks all the way for me. i stocked up on like 200 before krylon pulled that little bitch move a few years back. didn't know then but it was the best choice i ever made. i mean you can still get em off short cuts, but i don't really waste my time stealin those. i just started takin the caps off in the store when i started gettin low. i like walmart stocks too. call me crazy.

[LatinoPride88]

theres too many godam caps its crazy

[Alect1CH]

Also, while thinking about caps, i realized the one problem with spray paint is the inevitable problem of overspray. Of course, many here will claim they dont have the problem, but i have yet to see that perfectly clean piece. As a side note, to all the beginners out here, not only should you be checking out pieces from afar, but also up close. Im still amazed by some peoples can control, especially when their fill got little effects that can only be seen from upclose. :king:

hit up rochester, ny and check out some of the old FUA walls in the abandoned subway (or bench just about any layup anywhere in the world, those fools go so fuckin hard). Range has shit up thats so clean it looks like it was airbrushed. and theres this young cat called bile out there that cuts hella clean too.

[Alect1CH]

i like astros for handstyles too but i cant get them shits to work on every can. rusto an ny fit just about everything and theys hella cheap.

[randomname]

Anyone got experience with the little tricks on gettin ny fats to work on rusto? I looked but didnt find anything. Ive tried a few things and it never works for me.

[VADERnj]

get a 2mm allen wrench..stick the cap on the end and make it snug..now hold a lighter underit to where the flame is not touching but there(does that make sence??)..let cool and go..usually itll leak the first time u spray but let that settle and ur cool..

[INORIENTED]

it's the same exact cap.

[INORIENTED]

All you really need is 3 caps.. a fat , a mid size fat and a skinny. All this cap stuff is straight up bs and just a way to get people to waste money. I test caps for the companies that actually make them, so I know a great deal about the business.

[injury]

those Montana Beige dot caps are fucking fire on old krylon

[johnneh7]

Krylon fixative caps will give you a pink dot sized spray, only on krylon.

The valve hole on rusto is a tiny bit wider then the standard ERUO cans. You need to get you self some Boston Thins for the rustos. Best thing you ever did. The only place that has them is trouhtartsupply.com

My life has never been the same sence I got my self a sack of Boston Thins. I never outlined with rusto so much in my life.

Not true anymore. All you need now is 2 caps. Either a fat or stock cap for fills and a Boston thin.
Or even just one Boston thin for everything with U.S. paint brands as they fit on almost every female can in the U.S. Which works out well because they dont clog easy and when they are brand new they fill well. When your done filling with one, you get a even thinner line. Shit I got 3 PIECES outlined from one can of rusto Navy Blue with Boston thin.

All this is void if your one of those guys thats all in love with useing alot of eruo paint.

what about a boston thin in a sekt cap adapter??im thinking about getting some boston thins......but idk if if i should get the female thins and the female fats off of trout as well......if one of you guys could tell me how to bosto nthin works on a male can in a sekt adapter thatd be aweosme....cause if it works the same as it does on a female can, then i wont have to get the female thin and female fats....so let me know!

[GNasty]

they work fine with a sekt adapter. ive been using the stoner caps, i mean "boston" thins for like 3 years. theyre legit and theyre free.

[skinker]

[skinker]

how bout those female fat and thins from trout?? worth buying? or just the boston thins wirth buying? ive got the sekt adapter so i really have no use for the female fat and thins, unless theyre really worth it

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

From what I hear fat caps on the sekt adaptors suck and dont spray very wide(true?). I hear good things about the fats and thins from trout.

[Rustofills]

You dont need the adaptors. Just get yourself some of those female caps. Yes there worth it. Your fats stay fat and the outline caps dont act funny, like a outline cap does with the adaptor after a few minutes of use. Plus your better off with a cap right to the can without something in between.

[GNasty]

ive never had and problems with the adapters. my nyfats seem to work fine with em. they just take awhile to get used to since your handplacement is kinda different.

who came up with the name boston thin anyways.?

[Rustofills]

Who knows. Probably has something to do with where they are made. Or more then likly where the cap forst saw the most use.

[JonnyLaw]

Boston thins are too thin, it's all about the boston rustos. They're free and in excess, though I will not divulge on where to find them, an old school homie put me on game. Just thought I would let you guys know there's something even better out there. Hint* They look exactly the same as what comes off the stoners.

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

Elmers...

Trout's working on something even better than those :)

[JonnyLaw]

Aw come on, the idea is to these people with valuable information! But that sounds tight, thanks for letting us all know

[ephect]

heres some ideas for your own sekts to use in the future... gold painters marker end, with spring guts removed and taped... cap from super glue applicator cut at certain point... and a stem from inside a pen... requires super glue to eliminate leaks, but it works....

[MomentIsNow]

The length of those things are ridiculous.
Theres a good chance that shit will fail.

No hate though,
If it works, use it.

[Rustofills]

There is a much better way to deal with thos male cans, But im not telling. lol
But really you are just better off buying those female caps from trout as my self and thousands of others have.

[ephect]

trust, they work, and the added length, kinda makes for a cool grip, i like it cuz like, my fingers wrap around higher on the can, its actually pretty comfortable, the first 2 are the only ones i use right now anyway, so there not SO ridiculous... its actually pretty cool.. the second one is the best though, it only adds l ike barely a cm or so..

[yad]

i went to the art store and have some elmers and i get some bostons, now im the happiest motherfucker

[skinker]

snagged a boston off invisible glass....im pumped.

[tripple sicx]

y are they called boston thins its such a stupid name and invisible glass tips seem to let out less pressure then the elmer spray ones

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

Elmer Caps are fatter
Boston Thins / Invisible Glass tips are thin/outline caps

They are called Boston Thins or Rusto Thins... why is it a stupid name? It's where they became popular.

[Rustofills]

Who cares about the name. The caps are fresh and the cleaner company has been changeing the cans to male cans, female caps.
Boston thins is what I head them called three or four years ago. So thats what I call them.

[ugene]

where can i find that invisible glass spray at, i want to try sum of those caps

PAM COOKING SPRAY has a pretty fat female tip... would be good for male cans...

i want to get some fat flares with
http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t112/tonas_91/260448_front500.jpg
do pink dots, astro fats or silver fats work on em?

[Rustofills]

Sure you can use a astro on it, But really your better useing a NY fat for the wide flares on almost all US made spray paints, and yes they can leak when you use a NY fat on Rusto. Next to that you can use a regular Rusto Fat. But your dont always get the best flares with them unless you flip your rist like a homo.

Most eruo caps as well as NY fats are a smaller diameter stem then a can of rustos valve systems actuator hole, which is wider by a few MM. So in short you run a chance of leakage with those caps with smaller stems. If you are real clever you and make a conversion cap.

Where you use a stock cap to say a Valspar and drill it out so you can apply a NY fat on it and you will not have any chance of a leak and get that hot flare with out burning off paint pointlessly.


BLA BLA BLA.

[VADERnj]

orange dots r a hit or miss on rusto and rusto fats r garbage..i use a fattened up ny fat on rusto..the secret is a couple pages bak..

if you were smarter youd just do something 8000 times easier to fill that tiny gap then make a whole conversion cap that will probly break in your pocket.


bottom line is with american paints nothing is going to work perfectly. rusto fats sputter and spit paint on some colors of rusto, some eurocaps work on a dollarbrand(not colorplace) while they dont work on rusto, any cap will work better on old style krylon guaranteed.

i dont know why people wont just buy 6 ironlaks from oink and some thins and tag with a thincap instead of buying shitty american paint and trying to use a fatcap and getting sloppy tags.



and has anyone tried a SEKT adapter on the new krylon? (yes, you can get krylon down the the valve)

[BIGMETALCIRCUS]

won't work on Krylon, you need a metal post to make the valve work.

[ephect]

you can always just use a NY fat, or astro on a rusto, and just superglue it til your flair session is over.. but uhh ny fats seem to work pretty well on a rusto as long as you dont push so hard the whole time... just mmm dont hold the cap down the whole time, the pressure is what makes it spit.. i mean by that just dont be a toy..

[tripple sicx]

Elmer Caps are fatter
Boston Thins / Invisible Glass tips are thin/outline caps

They are called Boston Thins or Rusto Thins... why is it a stupid name? It's where they became popular.

i know the difference i have both and the tip from the glass cleaner seems to let out less pressure but u can still flare with them, but i think the name "BOSTON" is stupid and the internet made them popular not boston:D

buying paint for bombing purposes is not a good investment

well, once you get a sponsorship from mtn or walmart starts selling euro paint you can let us know how it feels to use nice paint.

bottom line is if your in america you can not buy paint at some point in your graffiti "career"

[ugene]

id rather rock that rusto

[YearzOne]

Co signed, I'm all for the newer graff oriented paints, but
I don't care who you are, or where you're from
Rusto will always be the shit. and you can pull off some decent flares
with the Rusto orange dots....and really nice ones..

and has anyone tried a SEKT adapter on the new krylon? (yes, you can get krylon down the the valve)

The conversion caps I make dont have anything to brake. Its basicly the same thing as a SEKT adaptor and it only take 60 seconds to make. Costs nothing and fits like a stock cap, because it is. So there's no spalters of any kind unless you do it wrong. The only down side is you need to know just how to make them. Or your going to just make yourself a problem.

But truthfully, grabbing some of those female caps from troutartsupply is the way to go. Its not just easier, its better. Having a direct single cap connection to a can will always work better, then haveing an adaptor. I wasnt a big fan of them when I first tried them. But one day a few months ago. That all I had on hand to use and I was rather happy with the outcome of how well the caps performed.



The SEKT adapter will not work on the new krylon. Its completely different from Rustos male can valve system.

[acer910]

i meant more if you have a taller cap like ive seen with these coathanger abortion type deals then its not only harder to control the can because your grip is moved up an extra inch (which becomes a problem with tall cans) and also it easy for the stacked cap type setup to just break in half if you dont press directly down on it unless youve made it really good.

[Rustofills]

The ones I make are actualy real soft so it also uses less pressure to push down the tip down. So there is no real differance when useing.

[acer910]

send me a pm, i want to know what your talking about.
ive withheld my temptation to buy a shitload of 2x painters touch (other then first obligatory 6 pack to try it out)
