eupho Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Okay, so, How the fuck do I do flares. I tried googling it but all that came up was every writer that wrote "flare". Do I just start pulling away? Or tilt the can? Anyone have a video or anything that can help me? With a good handstyle they look dope as fuck. Or is it a special cap? If so how can I mod stock caps to help me out if possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpcrew Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 ill be nice for a flare any fat cap will do well any cap that produces a good sized circle so u start from the bottom of ur letters and instead of moving ur whole arm up the wall like u would for a normal handstyle just tilt the can backwards instead get it?

ShaneIsAGamer Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 It doesn't matter what cap you have, you just have to get the movement right If you try to go slow it won't work, just hit it real fast and flick your wrist at the end... and it takes what everything else in writing takes....practice and repetition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey eon thanks for that. You really helped. And Ill try that elmers glue thing. Are you talking about these cans? And by loud you mean just when spraying, or theyre loud when taking off the cap? Spraying I think but someone said theyre loud and they would notice the caps misisng. I dont mind it being loud I can find a way to silence it or just deal with it.

eupho Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 LOL I know that, shit. :P I meant is that what you were talking about.

STALKER Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 The tip itself is louder than a any other tip i used tho. On a flat black rusto. soundin like an airstrip an shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eupho Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Mmm..Well Ill see. Has anyoen seen Graffiti Instincts bonus DVD? I remember some dude making a fat cap out fo the actual CAP on the top, like the orange one on the elmers thing. By cutting off the big part, so you have the smaller part on the inside that you cant see from the outside and then cutting a rectangle into the small part and he put it back on and it sprayed pretty well.. I would like to show you but the bonus dvd is like half an hour long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
