A contractor washed cement plaster off an enamel painted, metal roof with HCL.?
Roof has a 45 deg pitch. he then washed down the roof. from the next day we then had three days of rain. The owner says the roof must be replaced. She says that the more you add water to HCL, the more corrosive it becomes. I understand that a roof isn't a container and that adding water must (1) dilute it and (2) remove it. can someone please offer some solid scientific answer that may help here. this poor guy needs the factsA contractor washed cement plaster off an enamel painted, metal roof with HCL.?
HCl is soluble in water. Adding water to a HCl solution dilutes the acid. Add enough water and the HCl solution approaches the acidity of rain water. The HCl has been completely washed away by 3 days of rain. There certainly won't be any HCl solution left on the roof. The HCl was probably washed away by the contractor when he rinsed off the roof after cleaning it.
The owner is confused about HCl. The gas, HCl, ionizes in water and is corrosive. Exposing the roof to concentrated HCl solution is more corrosive than exposing a dry rood to HCl gas. However, the more water you add to a HCl solution, the weaker (and less corrosive) it becomes.

What are auto paints made of? Lacquer or enamel?
I'm wanting to use either to airbrush on metal. Thanks!What are auto paints made of? Lacquer or enamel?
Both Enamel %26amp; Lacquer are pretty well obsolete in automotive refinish. The modern basecoat / clearcoat system uses a few different types of resins.
Base Coat - Usually urethane based but sometimes polyester (depending on the manufacturer, BASF is polyester most others are urethane)
Clear Coat - 100% urethane
Base coat is somewhat like a lacquer in the sense that is can dry by means of solvent evaporation but it is not what most would consider a true lacquer paint.What are auto paints made of? Lacquer or enamel?
NOT ALL AUTO PAINTS are made of laquer at all man. check your facts.
not sure... we used auto paint at university.
i had a caf stool project, and i used it on metal and wood....
it sets extremely hard and is supposed to be scratch proof once glazed, there was a glaze to finish that we used like a varnish over the colour.
i used them on wood and metal projects....
i used a seal first then layers of carefully applied paint.
Above answer is completely wrong. All AUTO paints are made of laquer. If you want to airbrush metal, use auto paint. Enamel takes a bit longer to dry.
Most are enamel.

Can mirrors painted with Folk Art Enamel or Liquitex Glossies be heat set in home oven without cracking?
Why don't you use a hair dryer instead? I think an oven would do something funky to the mirror backing, plus those paint fumes are not something you need to be breathing in, know what I mean?Can mirrors painted with Folk Art Enamel or Liquitex Glossies be heat set in home oven without cracking?
Simply drying the paint is not the question. It's the prolonged heat of the oven that bonds and hardens the paint permanently. Hair dryer would not achieve same results. I'm also concerned about solvents (i.e. Windex, etc.) used in the future to clean the mirror.

I get brush marks when painting with high gloss enamel.?
I am painting crown moulding with high gloss enamel (latex). I put two coats on and it still shows the brush marks. I used a 2 inch trim brush (good quality brush). The moulding was previously painted with an eggshell latex paint. How can I get the paint to look smoother?I get brush marks when painting with high gloss enamel.?
After you've brushed the paint on, while the paint is still wet, draw the brush along the length very lightly, with the tips of the bristles barely touching the surface. Make the strokes in a long, clean line from one end to the other, and don't over-brush.I get brush marks when painting with high gloss enamel.?
Lightly sand it with a very high grit sand paper. 200 and up. Something to knock down the brush strokes then go check with a paint store. (not home depot) they can recommend a VERY good roller to leave no paint marks. What ever you use. Like a previous person said.. Don't roll with allot of pressure, enough paint on your roller so you don't have to force paint to come off to cover. But not too much so you leave blobs.. (happy medium)
Remember. The glossier the finish. The more imperfections it shows. (reflection and shadows) That's why I prefer semi gloss.
Less pressure.
Sand down what you've already painted with a fine grit garnet paper -- a 400 grit or more. Wipe down with a damp cloth and make sure it's dry. You already know that part. Thin out the the last coat or two by adding a miniscule amount of water (as it is a latex) to the paint. Experiment first on something you can toss, like scrap wood. A lot of the paints used today are thick in consistency and tend to show up the brush marks. And whatever your high quality brush is must be of natural bristles, where the ends are so fine, they leave no traces whatsoever. I myself prefer being able to see the odd brush stroke but it's not for everyone.
Another thing to try is to use the paint in the upper range of the temperature suggestions on the can. The room air and the paint should be a bit on the warm side. This will slow the drying time a bit and allow the paint to 'sit down' on the surface. Also, do not run fans or leave open windows during the painting and for at least one hour after painting, because it will speed up the drying which you don't want.

FABRIC PAINT .... fine mist of a clear enamel? whats enamel? please help
what brand of enamel worked for you best?
im starting to design sneakers. so i was told i need ';a fine mist of a clear enamel'; to add on to the sneakers after i paint them... where can i get the enamel.. how do i use the enamel and what brand is the best??FABRIC PAINT .... fine mist of a clear enamel? whats enamel? please help
Enamel is a less durable and less glossy paint, and is most commonly used on equipment. You should use just regular acrylic paint.
If what you want is to protect your work after you are done you may use w polythene suitable for acrylics.
hope that helps.home theater

Can I get away with painting one of these newer plastic storm doors from Home Depot with and oil base enamel?
How good will an oil base paint stick to a newer storm door (plastic front with glass and screen) from Home Depot?Can I get away with painting one of these newer plastic storm doors from Home Depot with and oil base enamel?
Been There! Tried That! I had to remove what I did and use spray paint. Can I get away with painting one of these newer plastic storm doors from Home Depot with and oil base enamel?
Sure you can. It just won't stick. Look for a Krylon spray paint made for plastics.
