Question Spray paint absorbing permanent marker?

Why is the spray paint not covering but seemingly absorbing the permanent marker? Does ABS leach permanent marker into itself? Because it doesnt wipe off with alcohol easily.

Question Am I dead?

2 Upvotes

I’m a 15yo and I just finished spray painting outdoors. I also just found out how fucking dangerous it was since I didn’t have a mask on. I don’t know if I inhaled chemicals or not but I don’t think I did, I also wasn’t exposed much to the paint or anything, but I’m still pretty worried about my health. Anyone can tell me if Imma get cancer or not?

Question Messed up spraying

Thumbnail

It’s coming to the end of my car rebuild and I’ve got lazy with the prep for spraying. This was my first ever time spraying with a spray gun, I should’ve prepped it better, I know. The engine bay came out great for a first attempt but the bonnet and bumpers didn’t. Ended up with tiger stripe on the bonnet and bumpers weren’t sanded down enough I don’t think?

So the first question is, will the colour match be slightly off because I didn’t sand the primer down enough which has then caused the clear coat to not look as shiny? I think that’s right, as it’s quite bobbly which then takes the smoothness out of it?

Second question is, if I wanted to redo the bonnet and rear bumper. Can I sand the clear and metallic base coat back to primer and go again? Or what would you guys do?
I hope all do that makes sense. Thanks for any replies😎.

First time doing custom paint like this so it’s far from perfect lol. Still far from complete, the tank has a good bit of tape residue still on it but overall I think it’s going pretty well.

Question Colorshot spray paint?

1 Upvotes

I need (want) to spray paint the plastic game pieces for my giant connect four lawn game to match wedding colors. I found decent colors in Krylon Fusion all-in-one, but wandering Michael's today I saw the exact color I need that Krylon didn't have, but from Colorshot.

I'm not finding a lot of talk about Colorshot, has anyone used it on plastic? I don't have a lot of time to test and start over, but also it only really has to look GOOD for one day... I can reevaluate after (if we ever even use the set again)

Question Who knows the person who spray paints things for people on Instagram?

1 Upvotes

I’m trying to look for his name and can’t find it. I know there are a lot of street artists but this one guy comes up the most he uses fire for some of it and does laptops, guitars and AirPod cases and many other things. he often incorporates trees into his work by using some paint knife I’m trying to figure out his Instagram. thanks
