How to paint a midsole using angelus paint

[mattleeeeee]

do you tape your shoes off before applying the acetone to remove the old paint?

[WASneakerRestores]

@mattleeeeee i would recommend that so you dont move the color onto a surface you would not like it to be on.

[TeamGorgeousness]

Do you use Angelus paint sealer? And If so do you use Matte or gloss??

[WASneakerRestores]

@TeamGorgeousness i use matte. and i have repainted all of my 3s. apply after you repaint.

[SergioRashmos]

good stuff reeves

[xxryanxfaggotshitxx]

is it glossy or flat color?

[TheKrylonic]

Is that a one ounce bottle or 4 ounce.?

[WASneakerRestores]

@TheKrylonic 1 ounce bottle is more then enough. thats what it is

[kilieable]

can you use regular white nailpolish to do this also?

[WASneakerRestores]

@kilieable no

[DavidStarz]

Hey man. I was just wondering if you put a glossy finish at all after applying all of your coats of paint or do you just leave it the way it is? My 2011 bc3's are cracking at only the white, so I'm gonna try this, but I want them to look perfect. Thanks in advance!

[WASneakerRestores]

@DavidStarz i recommend stripping the white paint then repaint the midsole to receive the best results

[IPODHELPER2323]

i got concords 11 and the toe box is clear like you can see threw it can i use the anglous to fix it make it more icy blue

[WASneakerRestores]

@IPODHELPER2323 i suggest using a blue dye mixed with seaglow

[prettyjustnel1317]

sir how much is the angelus paint?pls email me..jaysonjan_ceniza@yahoo.com­...there's no available here in the philippines

[FreshprinceLoudpack]

So this helps not only for making the midsole white, but cracking too? On the inner side of the shoe?

[TanaDOSAGE1]

What's that paint called?

[MrRoncarlitos]

After repainting the midsole. Will the paint still crack after? Pls answer

[jakecuevas22]

@MrRoncarlitos Not if you do it properly. I have shoes that have been painted for 2 years and I've only touched up once.

[tooshortbullys]

@jakecuevas22 im going to restor my jordan 8 aqas with angelus paint,when im finished painting them do i have to use gloss?

[reptexas44]

so im gonna repaint some obsidian low 12s, they have yellowed on the rubber outsole. can i just repaint over it cause i dont think you can scrap the rubber. basically asking, can you paint rubber like the toe of your 3s in this vid?

[kickfreak23]

hey bro i watched your video last year and did it on my fire red 3s.. and noww my cool greys are screwed...can you help me out on picking that matching color of grey on the jordans from the website.. thanks!

[ColombianDon2]

what happens if you dont remove the paint and just apply new paint?

[jakecuevas22]

@ColombianDon2

the paint usually will come off a lot easier, i have never done this method because its just the wrong way to do it.

[sneakerheadboii]

@jakecuevas22 i got og black cement 3s ... my midsole are chipping (black part) and my white part are turning yellow and what i should do ... do angelus paint work and my nike air part in the back is cracking what should i do and nike swoosh color is coming off need to repaint that part too .

[jakecuevas22]

@sneakerheadboii

you can repaint everything with angelus, may need to use smaller brushes for the small areas. goodluck

[MrKrow213]

[ch44zkicks]

Hey man good job on the video. working on my laser iv's atm. So far the blacks coming out awesome. I'll send you a pic when they're done if I get the chance.

[KnightRider8731]

I have a stain on the side of my black cement 3's not exactly sure what it is they came that way but I want to get rid of it. Can I paint over it without making it worse?

[AMMAK1NG]

ANGELUS IS THE ONLY PAINT THAT REALLY WORKS??? GREETINGS... AND BY THE WAY HOW DO I RESTORE MY AJ VIII ANTHRACITE???

[imemo32]

Does the paint dry gloss or semi gloss?

[KennMb]

i got military 4s but the paints cracking. when i strip then repaint should i do coats of white then blue?

[jakecuevas22]

@KennMb If you want to do a white layer first go ahead, but i just usually go straight for it and apply the paint.

[BlackQuest89]

Aye hit me up at BlackQuest89 on a effective way to maintain IceySole or noniceysole its not seaglow or retrobright it's just an effective home made method to keep the IceySole fresh so you don't have to keep seaglowing and saucing

[ivanocampo1995]

I repainted my black cat 3's with black angelus paint but it just doesnt shine what can i do to make it shine more

[shaneroner]

@ivanocampo1995 do a coat of clear gloss over it

[Reachl0C0]

For my fire red 3s should i paint over the red or remove the paint off first ?

[ivanocampo1995]

@Reachl0C0 remove the paint

[jakecuevas22]

@Reachl0C0

REMOVE the paint first and then re apply new paint

[FahadG89]

@Reachl0C0 take it all off. its better to work on a fresh work station then to paint over

[Omar71782]

Is there a finish needed after the paint is dry?

[mr11julian]

Wat canister use for varsity red 6s.the red part.please someone help

[SCODTTY]

do u kno wat color of angelus paint u will have to re paint cool grey 3s?

[SOLEskaterBRANDON]

@SCODTTY prollly grey

[strafeystrafes]

can i use the sam paint for my white 95s bottom part

[switchyahdigg]

so what about the streaks from the paint brush

[jakecuevas22]

@switchyahdigg

take your time and make sure the strokes are clean,even, and steady. not too much paint either

[jakecuevas22]

@switchyahdigg

If you take your time, and do thin layers, you wont have brush streaks.

goodluck

[ianapop]

@jakecuevas22 did you use that little bottle for both of the shoes because i bought that same size bottle of fire red paint for my 3s

[freshjamin1]

should i buy the angelus saphire blue for my stealth 5s?

[TheSoleBrothers]

thanks. i think ill be doing this

[macownzuto]

is there a specific blue I should use for the true blues ?

[MrNcredbl7]

Do u know if u could use the kiwi brand whitner to do the same thing? Tryin to restore my flips 3's

[MisterBinx]

Nice job man. I recked these when I had them in high school. Mostly because I stopped caring after the mid sole cracks became very noticeable. It sucks that the best shoe Jordan and Nike ever released has such a huge flaw.

[RGreenfield96]

i am actually repainting the same shoe, and was wondering should i repaint the rubber because its sorta yellowed?

[101Beastboi]

hey my grape 5s have some small paint chipping on the back if i want to repaint them from there do i have to repaint the whole part where there is paint chipping even on the spots were there is no paint chipppin ?

[kingarturo9]

should i use this same concept on my cool gray 9's? cuss im about too lol

[jakecuevas22]

@kingarturo9

Yea man go for it. Goodluck!

[DirektaMatt]

Hey dude, I just remade my Jordan 8's from orange to fire red with angelus. Did you use any finishers? if so what kind? Cause I don't want it to chip off easily or get it washed out by rain. Thanks.

[jakecuevas22]

@DirektaMatt

I don't use any finshers Matt, but I also don't wear my Js in the rain...

[egomez333]

did you pait over the paint that was already there without taking it off?

or should i take that paint off?

[jakecuevas22]

@egomez333

You gotta take the paint off first. That's step one

[gottahavekix]

did you use duller or no?

[jakecuevas22]

@gottahavekix

Nope

[customlee]

What can I use to paint the "AIR" back on to my 01 Cement 3's?

[jakecuevas22]

@customlee

If you have a steady hand then use paint haha

But if you don't have those skills I would use a sharpie. Only downside to that is you may have to re-sharpie like every month or two.

[customlee]

@jakecuevas22 alright thanks, angelus right?

[ekinsb]

After you use acetone to prep, do you wash off the acetone on the midsole?

[RUY2323]

How long did the paint last before having to do a touch up.

[AsianHustla808]

how long does it for layers to dry so u can applied second layers and third?

[AsianHustla808]

how long does it for layers to dry so u can applied second layers and third?

[5thSunrose]

thank you very much,thats my next project...Black Cement iii's. That was very helpful. peace

[DirektaMatt]

Hey I got some Spizikes a few weeks ago and already a really long scratch appeared on the midsoles, I'm wondering I could just paint that long scratch instead of doing the same thing without messing them up. Good vid btw.

[jakecuevas22]

@DirektaMatt

you can try that but i have found that it will look better if you do it all from scratch (no pun intended)

[trik83]

hi. do you know what is the suitable color in Angelus leather paint to get IV's military blue?>

[rcamaj129]

great vid, but i have a question. can i do this with the midsole of the Jordan Bred 11s from 2001?

[jakecuevas22]

@ImDayLee1

1 ounce should be fine

[DiskiddDylan]

what do u do with the black part of the CDP's

u use acetone and put Angleus black paint on them?

[jakecuevas22]

@DiskiddDylan

yes, these are not CDP 3s btw

[jogibarca]

i've got a question...any ideas on how to fix the midsole of a 1999 IV's (the white part) around the heel? I was thinking of touching it up with some paint cause it has this "old look", its a foam type of material and i have no clue how to if possible to fix it. Thanks to anybody that can help!

[jakecuevas22]

@jogibarca

email me, my email is at the end of this video. i can help you.

[RaptureUK1]

Ive given mine 3 coats of angelus paint but its still covered in brush marks. How do i stop this from happening?

[jakecuevas22]

@RaptureUK1

take your time and dont rush it. remember... thin coats of paint!!

[R010907]

THANK YOU!!

[TheXj90000]

What kind of finisher did you buy? Gloss, matte, satin, or high gloss? Which one would you recommend?

[ChrisTapThat]

where did u buy angelus paint?

[Cagthe]

thank you!

[hotrodn5r]

hey bro your vid was awesome! What paint can I use to restore the midsole on my TB3's 2K1's, the blue part of the midsole. Do you know which blue and white leather paint I should use? Hit me up...thx!

[lui23ful]

can Americana Acrylic Paint be used or does it juz have to be angelus paint

[adrift371]

does the angelus paint come in black? and do you know any fillants that i can put inside wholes and chipps of jordan midsoles, im doing a pretty big repair job?

[airsoftrevolution]

what kind of paint is used for the grape 5's?

[chefsuper17]

When applying paint for a colored area (for example the midsole on military blue 4s) do you first apply a layer of white first? I wonder bc I notice where my 4s are cracking, I see a layer of white under the original blue paint (and I know it's not the midsole bc there's a subtle difference b/w the midsole and white layers)

[airtec87]

how did you get the tape to cover perfectly? I was thinking of using a razor but I don't want to cut the polyurathane mid sole.

[sneakerfiend219]

it would of been cool if you were to add a drop of yellow or creamish colored paint to give that midsole a vintage look..lol..JK

is there a best way to get a even tone when repainting a shoes with this o that it wont come out too bright like your right 01 black cement 3s ?

[willerdriller6045]

you should you a better brush

[ELRODRIGUE05]

what paint can i use on the metallic black 5's

[chefsuper17]

Great job on the paint! Did you apply any duller? If you did, when is it applied to the shoe? or maybe mixed with the paint?

[obamaskatesgoofy]

i got some flip 3's size 9 that'd be perfect for a restore, hit me up if interested!

[MrFatmatt02]

nice job on the og's.

[airsoftrevolution]

gotta love the OG"S

[johnnybannas1990]

nice paint job but what about all them creases on the leather? whats the point of get fresh paint if the shoe looks all beat up.

[Coolman7200]

can this be done EXACTLY the same for a different color? such as black, im trying to repaint my og bred 4's black part, i have to get BLACK leather acrylic paint?

[chinesezodiac04]

hey, do you really have to take the original paint off first with acetone? cause im trying to repaint my cement 3s too. but i was wondering if i can just paint over the original paint? or the spaces where there are paint chippings

[BlackjaK58]

if you paint over it will crack right when you wear it.the paint has a factory finish that you need to take off.

[incognitoTLM]

Great how to man. I will be using your pointers to paint my Air Trainer 3's soon.

[ghettohammer1118]

im thinking about painting my DTRT 3s. Is there a gold colored paint or do i need a custom mix. thx man

[MrDarkstar0109]

keep the good job going!! :D

[daniel3091]

[kickfreak23]

yoo im finna work on my fire red 3ss the red hella chippn

[ATCQ1000]

@kickfreak23 same here man my fired 3's are chippin both te red and white paint.

[ToxicJordanZ23]

um can you paint on suede? and does anyone know the actual color on the military 4s blue parts or is it just blue paint

[jakecuevas22]

the colors you need are blue and white.

you need to make a custom mix.

AND you CANNOT paint on suede, there are suede dyes though. but i have never used them.

[ToxicJordanZ23]

ok thx

[braposo23]

@jakecuevas22 hey man i paint alot(not shoes though) try using the green frog tape instead of blue painters tape. the frog tape will not bleed through like blue tape does sometimes other than that shit looks tight keep the vids coming

[3DGARFLY23]

When repainting midoles with Angelus paints, which finisher is best to use?

[jakecuevas22]

Acrylic Finisher is used on all smooth leathers. It is excellent for hand crafted work or high speed production. Just apply with a sponge, rag, sheep's wool, or spray gun, and let dry. No buffing is needed. This water-based product cleans up with soap and water. When dry, the Acrylic Finisher is water-resistant, and will not rub off, crack, or streak. It is flexible enough for shoes, belts, handbags. It can also be used on gourds or anything needing a clear finish.

[ATCQ1000]

@3DGARFLY23 use the matte finisher thats what i used on my fire red 3's

[jakecuevas22]

let it dry for 1-3 hours...or until you feel its ready.

[TRUTHWILLMANIFEST]

@jakecuevas22

Hey,

once you restore the chipped paint, does the new paint you used to repaint the midsole, crack and chip off again?

[3DGARFLY23]

yo homie im thnkn about tryn this on my flints 9 but what u mean by 3 layers like one u painted the 1st layer ow longu wait 2 paint it over it for the 2nd layer?

[LuXckyXWilL]

did it had a paint feeling afterwards?

[jakecuevas22]

its has a paint feeling? yes

does it peel after? NO
