OLD_STYLE Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 After finishing up a burner or piece I realize that I have gone through at least 5 caps sometimes in one day. Which got me thinking about how many caps have I thrown away in my life... could be near thousands? Anyways, does anyone do anything with their old caps besides throwing them away, like keeping them, collecting them, use them to make something interesting? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheesypeanuts Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 1/ never throw your old caps 2/ Collect them all in a box 3/ Steal a peanut distributor in your favorite bar. and decant all your overcast caps in it 4/ Then fill it with TRICHLOROETHYLENE 5/(Optional) You could sniff some vapors of that shit if you wanna travel for free or wanna die younger 6/ Shake the all stuff, then insert coins (that you, of course, get back at the end of each month) 7/ Alleluia ! Your caps is cleaner than ever 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephect Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 ^ ahaha dope ass idea.. umm i was actually thinking about it today, maybe something like this could be used for mops? idk just uhh elaborate on the idea however you want iz guess.. basically flip a cap, add a washer (i guess?) and you got something to work with if you just glue a nib on somehow or whatever.. idk you guys do the math Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD_STYLE Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 lmao i love how you have to steal one of those "peanut distributors" and are advised to do so at your favorite bar... haha but i wonder if the TRICHLOROETHYLENE would work well.. hmm i gotta try it someday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocOne Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 1. Head to your local Lowes or Home Depot, or something like that. 2. Find yourself a can of this stuff (GOOF OFF GRAFFITI REMOVER) C. Get it in what ever way you like, wink wink. 4. Take off the stock cap. 5. Put your own cap on. 6. Spray a little bit, and let the stuff eat the paint out. 7. Repeat untill you get your spray back. 8. ???? 9. Profit. But no, seriously, this stuff is amazing paint remover, and it will make your caps good as new. I highly recommend it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get it pretty much any where. It work just like Graffiti remover in all ways. A plus is you can make nice mixxing caps out of the the stock tips.

Rustofills Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yeh, You spray it in you dick hole to wash out old giznuts. So you dont get clogged up. The best part about that is you can hold a lighter to the tip of your dick when you piss it out. You can turn your dick into a flamethrower.

gurkgurkgurk Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 reusing caps kinda sucks. i try to finish all my paint wherever im painting, if im doing a piece. that way when i leave im not bringing any evidence back with me. used paint caps and half empty cans are the worst thing to have on you while your running. so i ditch both of them. but if im out bombing and didnt use much paint. i take the cap back home and soak it in lacquer thinner or paint thinner. carb cleaner works too, but its just horrible on your skin, itll mess you up big time. its not the same thing as paint thinner, what they do is relatively the same , but carb cleaner has tons of more horrible shit, same with brake cleaner. but theyll work if your in a good ventilated area. i dont bother with saving hood caps though, ive cleaned acouple out really good, only to have them piss paint all over me when i put them on a can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelas*thc* Kover*bta* Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 take the dot out and make it a blaster cap.. yaaa blaster caps are fun. turn a dead cap into a paint blaster. works great with MTN the high pressure and the blaster work like a tiny fire extinguisher. horrible control though but can make for some cool effects. Works good for blood splatter type of look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROMAN_MHC Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Clean em all, came from the school of cutting Krylon tips and gluing on whatever else I could to make the lines,flares I wanted.....when I see em in a yard....grabbed, Mine! -Chuck em in a 1 gallon can of Acetone, let em sit, brush em clean, guitar wire for the tip and they're back to life. Stubborn ones get the graff remover treatment then back in Acetone. -Been working on a boombox, super gluing the stock ones to it...take a few off everytime i do a new mop and use them for mixers Oh and TCE...was developed as an anasthetic only to be used later as a degreaser.....so inhaled, you would fly...
