Spray painted boxes , graffiti , sticker art boxes

Well i ve managed today to find out my Sanyo m9922k
(also known as m9923)
from the basement .
I m thinking of spray painting it and i m seeking
some advice on what colour should i do it??
(i was thinking metallic red).
Maybe i can do some stenciling on it too..
Some stickers would be nice too so that i can give it
a more street look..
Now what spray paint should i use for plastic?
Should i sand it before starting the process??
How can i spray paint chrome at the
chrome parts that have faded?
I know that those are many questions but at least
thats some food for thought!!!
Oh and if you guys and girls ofcourse have any pics of
spray painted boxes or graffiti and stickered boxes
please share some pics here!!!

can you get hold of any mtn94 where you are deech?
its hell of lot better than car paint and comes in every color you can think of,and is about £3.50 for a 400 mill can

you can buy it online,there are other makes out there that are better,most online suppliers have a mininum spend of about £25.
i get it direct from the supplier in manchester-suspect package in gorton.

That is graffiti specific and should you should not bother with it.
Basically, a high pressure can allows you to put on a fat cap and do bombs with big outlines while a low pressure can allows you to put a skinny cap and do details on murals.
Get the color you need and use the standard cap that comes with the can.

you can buy low pressure paint and all kinds of caps including soft caps,mtn94 is a low pressure paint.

I ve just started the process of painting 2 of my boxes!
Its the 1st time i ve paint a box!!
Now do you remember the Sanyo M9922K and the SANKEI TCR S70??
Well they ve turned like this !!!
I followed Bisons advice and purchased some montana 94 spray cans
and i have to say that they are fantastic for this kind of job !!
Thank you for that Bison !!
My skills are not the best but when i ll finish
i ll post the process step by step (pic by pic))
in a new thread for members who would like to take a chance
on painting their boxes!
I ve got to let em dry and add some details or even stencil them
i dont know yet as i m not really planning how should i paint em or my
next move !
I guess i m being spontaneous!
Will be back soon with more detailed pics
northerner - 2013-01-23 08:13
wow that is some shade of blue!...you wouldn't lose either of those boxes in a snowstorm!
i love this sort of stuff...you can plan and design for hours but its much more fun just diving in and doing whatever takes your fancy...looking forward to the final pics
deech - 2013-01-23 08:20
Northerner my next move is to spray paint the chrome!
Now this i ll have to see how it will turn out !
bison - 2013-01-23 08:57
great job deech cant wait to see the finished pics
lookin at your the cans youve bought the montanna chrome will be a higher pressure than the mtn94.
deech - 2013-01-23 09:06
yes the guy who owned the shop told me its a high pressure
can and i might need to change the cap .
I dont know what this means
Do i need to spray a coat of clear acrylic lacquer on them or not??

the cap supplied on the chrome will be a fat cap,together with the higher pressure it wont be as easy to use as the 94 stuff,
caps are the nozzles that come with the paint..fat cap is a fat line skinny cap thin line etc.
did the shop sell caps? if so try and get hold of some soft caps for better control,if not be careful with it.also chrome paint is harder to cover in normal colored paint.
deech - 2013-01-23 09:26
Bison what do you mean by saying normal colour paint??
and what if i changed caps with a 94 can ? will this work?
Should i spray clear acrylic lacquer on them??
Sorry for my too many
questions Bison but you are a graffiti artist my friend!
nevone - 2013-01-23 09:28
Yes, you need to lacquer them in the end.
deech - 2013-01-23 09:37
Nev i only apply one coat of the lacquer sprayr eh?
Thanks for the advice !!
bison - 2013-01-23 09:37
what i mean with the chrome is once youve applied it if you wanted to cover the chrome in another color it could take a couple of coats.
mtn94 is a matt finished paint,you can buy other paints that are gloss finish,laquer would be car paint..its your choice
try the 94 cap on the chrome it may spit a bit from the neck of the cap though
deech - 2013-01-23 09:44
I ll try that with the mtn 94 cap.
i have to buy the clear lacquer spray and
will ask her for some soft caps.
deech - 2013-01-27 06:25
Had the time to do some stenciling today!
My sis helped me by printing the letters and the
record pattern and i did the dirty job by cutting them!
Also bought some stickers .
Cant really paint today as the humidity
is high and yesterdays hangover
is worse than i thought!!
Here are the results!
