    I almost forgot to turn the burner on the stove off after I boiled the water for the paint mixing. That wouldn't have been to slick. I should probably go to bed if I'm that cracked out. Peace.

    it seems a little far fetched and really ghetto. plus the mixing caps are bare cheap but that pen thing could work... but with shit like that ive got bad luck could any pen work apart from a bic?

    this is to the kid that says he doesnt buy painters touch it is actually a nice paint...i only use it for fills and i use rusto fats...it doesnt really work well with thin tips so i use krylon for outlines...i have never used or seen color vision so thats not really an option for me

    hi where I live, I can't buy mixer caps, so I wanna try do some mixer caps
    but I can't take off the little white thing in a sucker cap.
    I took a normal cap(sucker not a NY thin) and a try to take off the circle white
    but I try and try and It's look, like it was impossible, so if someone of you guys know how I can remove that shit, please tell me. and I don't want to fuck a NY thin cap :rolleyes:

    oh and I read all the tread and I don't find help for this problem :ph34r:


    THANKS! :)

    get an exacto knife and just stab it in to the hole where the paint comes out and just wiggle it loose it worked for me
    how long should the cans be frozen/heated?
    frozen on top and heated on the bottom right?

    no. one can is chilled while the other is warmed. the empty / recieving can should be chilled so the pressure inside goes down a little bit.

    gotcha
    thanks Percoset
    what method works best for the mixer caps?
    actually widdling away caps and putting bic pen in
    or just using the bic pen to fit the pen into where the caps go
    or another method?

    i just mixed some paints today first time its sik al i used for a mixer cap is two needle caps i got a the bomb shelter in toronto i took the needle off of one and put em together then followed the instutions for the link in the first post simple i suppose u could take a wd40 straw and do the same with stock caps by taking out the wHite part but the need caps work perfect cause the needle fits percectly.
