Intro

We have been quoted as saying, „Create Your Own World“.

And when we first started this journey, we had no idea of

how relevant this quote would be.

For those of you who may not have seen the first issue of the

allspraypainted Magazine, our team has been passionately

helping people creatively personalize their surroundings,

regardless of indoor or outdoor. Whether it be up-cycling furniture,

re-vamping home decor or innovating DIY projects

from scratch. Anything has been possible at allspraypainted.

Create

We are grateful for the help of our many international talented

contributors. Not afraid to „give it a go“, they have added

color and vibrance to our everyday lives. We also tip our

hats off to our main supporter, MontanaCans. Not just a manufacturer

of premium quality German made aerosol

products, but also a source of inspiration and innovation.

Although many ideas at allspraypainted have grown and flourished,

it is not the ideas exclusively. So has our community.

It‘s time to give a pat on the back to you, the reader. After all,

you are the people that water the creative seeds we plant

together. And hopefully enjoy the fruit those ideas bring.

A year full of color has bound us all together. We have worked

with old materials and new ones. We have gotten our hands

dirty while working with wood, our gloves dirty while applying

paint and turned rubbish into treasure. But above all had we

had fun doing it.

your

own

world!

We have celebrated the seasons with their elements and the

color changes they bring. We have re-invented some less

than inspiring rituals into some exciting new projects. We have

even turned nothing into something, while scratching our

creative itch. The allspraypainted Magazine 02, is a celebration

of what we have learnt and achieved. A reminder of what

we did and a source of inspiration of what is still to come. So

grab a seat and get inspired by the chapters in front of you.

And never forget you can „create your own world!“

Metallic Effect Bowls

ADDING A SPLASH OF

METALLIC COLOR TO NATURE

01


13

Make sure the bowls are clean and free of dusts

and oils. Give them a light sanding with very

fine sand paper. Take your masking tape and and

apply it below the top of the bowls rim. You don’t

want any paint near where there will be food or

mouths. So only mask till about 2/3 of the way up.

Apply the tape evenly and equally, pressing it

down all the way around so no paint can sneak

under the edges. Now it’s time to cover the rest of

the bowl so no paint overspray lands anywhere

you don’t want it to. Shake all your cans for 2-3

minutes. Turn them upside down and remove the

nozzles. Let the little black safety ring underneath

them fall out. Re-apply the nozzles and give them

a test spray, away from any surfaces.

With gloves and mask on, start with the Montana

Universal PRIMER and apply a light even coat to

the outside of your bowls. Let them dry at least

15 minutes or more, till they are touch dry. Give

the painted surface an optional light sanding and

then re-apply. Ideally you leave the bowls sit to

dry over night so you are sure the primer is completely

cured.

The last step is applying the METALLIC Effect

colors. Clean free of dust and make sure the

bowls are dry. Shake the cans. The important

part is to remember not to spray too close to your

bowls with the METALLIC colors. Keep the can

15-25 cm away from the bowls and apply in thin,

even coats. Do multiple coats, allow them to

touch dry and repeat the steps: sand – clean –

shake – spray.

Striped Gradient

Clock

“WHAT’S THE TIME” IN STYLE

Striped Gradient Clock

Make sure the wood is clean and compatible to

be sprayed. Shake all cans for 2–3 minutes. Take

off the nozzles and turn the cans upside down,

allowing the little black safety ring to fall out.

Nozzle back on, now test spray away from any

surfaces. Starting with the Montana GOLD color

Yolk, spray an area from the left side leaving

room for the next color Pink Pink. The final touch

is a touch of Malachite. You are almost done!

Remove the painters tape after about 3 to 5

minutes and put on two coats of Montana Cans

VARNISH Spray in Semi-Gloss to seal the paint

and the wood. Let the clock base dry overnight.

Put the clock kit together in the hole and

you are ready to hang it.

Granit Tray and

Easter Eggs

ADDING A TOUCH OF STONE

Granit Tray and Easter Eggs

On the tray, apply the Montana Universal PRIMER.

Let dry and apply two coats of GRANIT Effect

Spray. Seal with the Montana VARNISH. Let dry

overnight. For the eggs, We didn’t need to prime

them, as boiled eggs make for a great surface to

paint. Depending on which type of egg you have

chosen, you may want to prime it with the relevant

Montana Plastic, Polystyrene or Universal

PRIMER. Make sure the surfaces are clean, dust

free and dry. Lightly coat them with the GRANIT

Effect Spray at a distance of about 20–25cm in the

color of your choice. Leave them to dry and then

carefully roll them over to coat the other side.

Disclaimer: Please note that sprayed Easter eggs

can only be used for decorative purposes. 26

Pink and

Yellow Stools

EYE CATCHING STOOLS FOR MORE

THAN JUST SITTING ON

Pink and Yellow Stools

Start by taping off the last 15cm–20cm of each

stool’s feet. These areas you may want to stay

clean and show natural wood when you remove

the tape. If you are using existing stools you’ve

found or recycled, give them a sanding to remove

any existing paints or coatings. Ensure they are

clean and dust free. We recommend using the

Montana Universal PRIMER to pre-coat the wood.

This will ensure the best color vibrancy for the

later color application, but it also make sure the

paint sticks optimally. Starting at the base of the

legs, we first applied our darker colors, using

broad sweeping strokes that were at least

15cm –20cm away from the stools. Second coat

the lighter shade and final color the lightest. Don’t

forget to paint the insides and underneath of

the stools as well! Once all the colors were applied,

we removed the painters tape from the feet

of the stools. Give them a coat of protection with

Montana VARNISH Spray and let dry overnight.

Glitter Homeware

Objects

GIVING HOMEWARES SOME

GLITTER ELEGANCE

Glitter Homeware Objects

Remember the Montana GLITTER colors work

best on black or dark surfaces. Count yourself

lucky if any of your homewares are black to

start with. If not, give them a coat of Montana

GOLD Shock Black. Let dry. Attention:

High quality metallic glitter pigments are heavy.

As such, to ensure the best results, always

re-shake your GLITTER Effect Colors to re-mix

them again before use. Even after short pauses and

regardless of if you shook well for 3 minutes to begin

with. Leave your freshly painted objects 24 hours

or more to completely dry. For the final touch, apply

your Montana VARNISH Gloss.

Glass Paint Tealights

DIY FEELING FOR INDOOR OR OUT


Collect, empty the jars you think would be good

vessels to hold candles. Make sure the jars are

clean, free of dust and oils. Grab a tea towel and

give them a wipe off before you start spraying.

Then prepare your spraying area with a drop

sheet, or piece of cardboard to spray on which

will catch any overspray while spraying.

Shake your cans vigorously for 2–3 minutes. Depending

on how intense you want the color, you

can apply one or more layers. Holding the can

back about 15cm - 20cm from the jars, apply in

thin light coats. The lighter you apply, the more

light will stream through the glass. Add decorative

thread if desired. 44

Wooden Boxes

MORE THAN JUST WOODEN DECOR

Aqua Colored Wooden Boxes

Make sure your boxes are smooth and free of

possible splinters by sanding lightly with fine

sanding paper. Brush them off and make sure

they are clean and dry. Two light coats of

Universal PRIMER, with a light sand in between

coats are ideal. At a distance of about 15cm–

20cm from each box, apply thin even coats of

Montana GOLD color. One color per box.

Let the boxes dry overnight and combine them

as required.

Glass Paint

Containers

CREATING AMBIENCE

WITH TRANSPARENT PAINT

Glass Paint Containers

On some of the glass containers you can choose

to mask off areas with painters tape. When you

remove the tape after spraying, you are left with

the original clean glass. At about 15cm from the

glass, we sprayed sweeping passes of the GLASS

PAINT. Consider that the more you put on, the

more opaque they become. If you want a more

transparent look, apply less coats. Leave the glass

containers to dry overnight but remove the

painters tape before the paint was completely dry.

If desired, spray some leaves or twigs with colors

from the Montana GOLD Line as an addition. 56

Gradient Wooden

Blocks

INVITE NATURE INTO YOUR HOME

Gradient Wooden Blocks

Online, in a hardware store, recycle some wood

or speak to a timber yard. Once you have your

blocks, you need to assess if it is ready to paint

or not? They must be clean, dust/oil free and

smooth. If required, take some sand paper and

rub your blocks down. Shake the Montana GOLD

cans vigorously for 2-3 minutes. Take off the

nozzles and turn them upside down, allowing the

little black safety ring to fall out. Nozzle back on,

a short test spray away from any surfaces to see

if you are ready to go. Instead of the standard

skinny beige dot nozzle that the can comes with,

we chose a Flat Jet Cap Medium from our

Montana DIY Capset. A must have for any DIY’er.

This cap delivers paint evenly in vertical or

horizontal output depending on how you turn

the plastic insert. Which makes fading gradients

easier as long as your spray stroke is in the

direction you turned the insert. For this project,

set horizontally to spray. 62

09


HOW TO SPRAY

A GRADIENT

Now you don’t need a degree to figure out fading.

You just need to make your spray strokes get

further and further away from the surface your

painting as you spray, in this case from the

wooden blocks. If you do this, you will notice at

each pass, the paint applies a little thinner and

the color appears to become less opaque.

When you have done majority of your fade, you

can also spray from a little higher up the block

so the spray mist falls thinner on the part you are

fading. This may make the fade look smoother.

If it looked fine as it was, you can leave it at that.

63

Grab an old piece of cardboard and practice on

it as much as you need to until you are happy.

Think about where you want the fade to stop also.

Remember if you want the look of natural wood

to stay on the lower parts, you need to consider

that when you are spraying.

Metallic Dipped

Pumpkins

MODERNIZING A HALLOWEEN CLASSIC

Metallic Dipped Pumpkins

Clean the pumpkins with a damp cloth several

times to take away any dust or dirt. Proceed to

spray all the pumpkins completely in the color

Lychee. Make sure you allow at least 15–20

minutes before the next step. To create a dipped

like effect, apply each pumpkin in one color

from the top down to the middle. Literally making

it look as if each pumpkin was dipped on its

head in metallic color. Spray focusing on the

stem of the pumpkin and lightly turn it.

MARBLE EFFECT WORKSPACE

Cover all the areas of your work space objects

that you don’t want paint on. Coat the rest of the

area in Montana GOLD Line Shock White. Apply

a nice even coat of Marble Gold. It is best to

peel the tape off 5–15 minutes after your MARBLE

coat has been applied to avoid the paint curing on

the tape and tearing as you want to remove it

cleanly. Pull way from the lines where you have

your exposed surfaces. This will ensure your

lines are crisp and tight. Then allow to dry overnight

so the paint can cure.

MARBLE EFFECT WALL ART

The better the quality of your cardboard, the better

it will hold paint without buckling. Measure and

cut all the black card to fit the frame you want to

use. Get creative with different styles and patterns.

The tape should be removed about two

minutes after the paint had been applied leaving

the contrast of the black paper and the paint.

A test spray proved good and with drop sheet

laid, gloves on, mask on and windows open, we

then applied the paint over our first piece. The

closer and more direct you apply MARBLE 400ml

paint, the closer the paint threads land on your

substrate. This looks very spider web like. Let

your artworks dry a few hours. Carefully mount

them in your frames in preparation for the actual

hard work of figuring out in which order to hang

them?

Red Glitter

Christmas

PUTTING A NEW FACE ON

THE FESTIVE SEASON

Red Glitter Christmas

It‘s nearly the festive season again. Time to dust

off the decor box and give your space some

Christmas spirit. As with all your creative projects,

make sure everything is clean, dust free

and dry before you start. Once you‘ve done this,

prepare your painting space with the drop sheet

so that you don‘t get dust on your freshly painted

ornaments. Start with any of the objects that

have pre-coated surfaces that need covering or

have no coat at all and you want to seal them.

Grab your Montana Universal Primer can. Place

the items on the drop sheet and apply evenly.

The final aspect is adding color to your remaining

objects. Remember we have Metallic colors and

normal pigmented colors. Take some time to

consider which items you want to give a Metallic

look and which just need a new color to pep them

up. Then shake, shake, shake and then choose

the ornament you want start with. Have your

objects 20-25cm away and apply thin even coats.

After leaving these all to dry 24 hours or more,

you are ready to put them into service.
