well the usual happened with MG chemicals spray products, they work like shit. I damaged the horn while cleaning it after a failed paint job because I dropped it, so I would have to make a new one. The can was heated, shook for 2 minutes, and then clogged 1 seconds into the work. Also unlike the nickel paint, this one does not transfer at all with a manual brush, the nickel one you can kind of mis use as normal paint if you are quick.
Now 3/3 MG chemicals spray product (nickel paint, silver paint and ESD dissipative coating) all had severe problems during application, even when purchased from digikey. And leaky cans
Not going to try again until I find some kind of paint product that I like.
There is some kind of problem with surface tension and sharp edges too, but I will not even experiment when the aerosol flow is so dodgy
Only MG chemicals spray product I recommend is alcohol. Maybe someone will figure out a 'consumer grade low skill' spray on product in the next 10000 years. Paint with out metal particles is slightly easier, but still.... they uh... over do the easy portion of this... too much art involved, and the rate of cash flow out of my pocket is way too high when I am misting fucking silver.
And this can only works if you shake it while you are spraying, you have about.. 1/3 second after you stop shaking that it messes with the flow. Maybe if you add a vibra motor to the can it would work better IDK,or you get a musician that treats it like a maraca or whatever, and you get random clumps of silver
The usual shit on friday when you think you can finish something off eh, feel the same way about this as I do about aluminum brazing :'(
difficulty level > pizza dough
I almost want to try again, but this time rough up the surfaces to 60 grit, and do enough coats to smooth it out, but probobly that will end badly too.
