isor357 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 someone got a picture of a "male'' cap? im not havin it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tango 24 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 the caps are fine improve your abilities. much agreed though some have chisel caps, which are pretty much only good for tags and fills just go find some other male tins, such as oven cleaners, which have dots mr sheen is also good for blue dot caps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveparesucksgasm Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 i think the reasoning behind this has more to do with the fact that they are any angle spray, like the kilz craftcote that came out a minute ago. the craftcote is actually pretty good, and some sick colors. i found two good caps for those, but the stem on those is bigger than on the painters touch cans so you have to get different caps. in the yard section, caps thread i think, someone posted a tutorial on how to make ny style caps work with these cans by melting the female caps. i reposted it somewheres too, not sure what thread. it works good though, except it ruined a ny fat i have by bending the male part all up so i can only use it like that now. works fine though, i accidentaly bought a case of 6 claret wines off ebay on the cheap, not realizing they were painters touch male cans cause i didnt read the picture well enough. so, you will be able to use ny fats, thins and rusto fats on these cans. or find your own off of household products, or just dont use these cans at all. theyre not getting rid of the old cans, cause these are all lame crossover colors, not replacements for the colors in thier respective lines. if they do get rid of old cans, theres always walmart silvers and tallboy flat blacks.

AllTheWrongWords Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 The other nite I stuck an exacto knife into the cap that comes with these cans and twisted it in circles a for a good minute. Came out pretty nice. Simple and effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelill Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 this is not about some euro paint! american accents see the name . The old montana male caps dont fit. There too big. I haven't seen any adaptor,but I had a similar question in the caps tread a couple of months ago when this male valve crap first started .The guy that replied had some interesting ideas. I got one down that works now.....You're just going to have to learn on your own Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paint2metal Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hate to break the news but the regular Painters Touch cans are also stemmed now. Home depot just got restocked by me and many colors like Key Lime , Spa Blue , Herbal Green all had the new c"comfort tip"design. They say it on the outside of the cans just like American Accents...Fuckers!!!! Makes no sense why they would do this. Dont give me that the dont like Graffiti art. We are probably the bulk of their market. Rustoleum makes money on every can we use regardless if their cans are stolen from shops or not.

whatChuWrite Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 FYI: I agree the new Rustoleum caps/stem system sucks..... That said its not a cap system to replace the female can male cap but just another product to add to their existing line which, to my understanding, will not change anytime soon. This new product is called the "Spray Any Way" valve/can system. Which allows you to spray the can upside down or at any angle and also has a different spring to allow you to easily depress the cap. That is th reason for the new cap stem. This is"supposed" to help you get into areas that you cant with a traditional style can/cap. So, I think the problem here is the knowledge about the product by the stores that stock it. Some stores may choose to restock with say 5 cases of "the new" product of the same color instead of the "the old" product of the same color and just not understand that its not a replacement but yet another product, for a different application, just of the same color. I think you should be sending your complaints to the stores that are stocking them and just let them know its a different product and to not use it as a replacement product just cause its so called "new and improved". And no, I dont work for Rustoleum :). And forgive me if this was allready posted.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelACKson Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 i guarentee it has absolutely nothing to do with graffiti, and everything to do with them getting a new can supplier who was able to undercut their previous supplier. plain and simple i dont think you know a lot...but you talk like you do. does your uncle work for rustoleum?

alloverthetown Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 yeah i got some of the male cans, didn't realize it at the time.. not a big deal.. I can work around it... They put out some new colors though, what amazed me was that I picked up a 'coastal blue AA gloss" "new product as said above" and it came with a new style cap, and it's still a female can. Maybe they are switching back and forth? lovin these new colors.. a lot more blues, greens and a whole entire spectrum of browns..here's a flick of what i'm talkin bout. second flick is how it sprays, still has the same flow as a stock cap, feels a little smoother, but comes out just as fast.

whatChuWrite Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 customer service answers the phone and takes messages. ask them to put you thru to product technical support. oh, and i think the reason why its only the satin cans is because their satin is not supposed to drip as much as the gloss, which helps you to "Spray Any Way".

grandponeroyal Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 the new system covers just as good as the old system...and stills leaves a foggy overspray like putting a fat cap the old...same coverage, its just gonna be harder to use on pieces...but if you use it to bomb its still the same old shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milford Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Just don't pay for your paint and it won't be a big deal...anyways i don't mind the cap that's on it...they work nice when the can is real full. They are REAL good for outlining shit..just more time consuming for fills. I like pancakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q718 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I got the male caps on some flat black not just the satin. I think its any cans with the new plastic labels. if you got some of the male stems you can still use the cans. go to your local supermarket or hardware store and start stealing caps you can find all sorts of fan tips and super fats.
