What's going on everyone? My name is Sciz. What you are looking at here is a new kind of
adapter (as of recording this) on the graffiti market. But this is not a cap adapter per se,
it's actually a pressure adapter! Today i'm not only going to be giving you guys all the important
info that graffiti artists are going to want to know about this adapter, but also i'll be testing
this out so you can see exactly how it works and how well it works. So here is what the adapter
looks like by itself. What it's designed to do is limit the pressure of a spray can for easier
can control and thinner lines for your graffiti pieces. As part of our test i'll throw some tags
up without the adapter and then with the adapter to highlight the differences it makes. I'll also
be testing it with some fat caps and some skinny caps. The adapter itself will fit onto any male
cap that is shaped like this one. That's what this one is as well; it's a pink dot. Of course
it'll fit on top of a pink dot like right now or a blue dot or even like a cyclone cap or a gold dot.
Really anything with that shape. And on the other end of the adapter you can put any male
cap on there that you want. One of these will cost you about two dollars and fifty cents US or say
about 3.39 in canadian dollars. But it shouldn't need to be replaced at all really. But let's head
over to our testing area and see how this thing actually performs. Welcome to the testing area
everyone! I'm sorry i look like a bit of a bum today, but nevertheless we have a few different
caps as you can see here and what we're going to do is first, without the pressure adapter,
i'm going to show you what each of these, like say a pink dot cap, looks like; a new york fat,
and then also like a smaller outline cap. This used to be like the Ironlak version of a universal
outliner which they call the vegan outliner cap. I still have a bunch of these laying around and
then after we are perfectly clear on what each of the caps individually look like, then what we'll
do is we'll throw this on here and then we'll see what the ny fat looks like, what the vegan
outliner looks like with the pressure adapter on there. So behind me here i just have a nice wood
background to test each of the caps on. We'll throw a couple tags up with subscriber names to
give you a look at how each cap looks and then at the end i'll also use this and do a bit of a very
small example type piece and do a bit of detail work with this and see what kind of better can
control we can get with this, compared to without. So first up i'll just give you a quick look at
what an ny fat looks like without the adapter here. Bars wanted a hit-off. Let's give him one.
Very simple but that's what the ny fat can do for you right there. And i'll leave some space below
that one so that we can test the adapter with the ny fat right here and compare them "side by
side" if you will. Just to test out a skinny cap, Haste wanted a hit-off. Let's get him up here.
So that's basically what a vegan outliner is going to look like at full pressure. So now you guys
know what time it is! Let's slap on the adapter. For this adapter we're using this which is sort
of like a fat ish cap. They sort of recommended something like that. We're putting the adapter on,
making sure that the hole in the adapter there lines up nicely with
where the paint's actually going to come out. Make sure it's pressed down as far as you can
get it down and then throw it on here like this. Also it did recommend you sort of use lower
pressure cans. I know Ironlak isn't a low pressure can by any means, but i did let a bit of air out
of this can to make it a bit lower pressure. And now we just throw our ny fat on here just like
that. It's probably a better idea to put the ny fat on before you put the cap on the spray can,
but i wasn't that smart! First thing i will tell you right away is this isn't the most comfortable
way to spray with either, but let's see what this looks like and where you're probably
gonna see the difference isn't necessarily in the outcome, but in the process. You'll
be able to hear the difference and probably see the pace of the paint coming out a little bit
differently. So let's see what that's like. Juda wanted a hit-off. Let's get him up!
Getting a lot of spill here so i'm gonna sort of troubleshoot a little bit before i
continue with this. Believe it or not with a bit of experimentation with literally
vice grips... um i managed to get this working the way it's supposed to and let me tell you...
yeah that's what it's supposed to do. Now you're not getting any leakage out of the
top and to be honest it doesn't seem like there's too too much of an effect here like
you can still get some very fat lines. It's definitely a bit more controllable
but it doesn't mess with the size of the lines you're getting too much. One thing i
definitely do not like about it is you get a hell of a lot of overspray but anyway now let's see
what this kind of thing does with a vegan outliner, a skinny cap. So to compare now, let's
give Meaz a hit-off. Yeah this is where you're getting that overspray. You can hear it too...
yeah like i stopped here and it continued here.
You can hear - oh my god - it's not taking too kindly to a thinner cap, i will tell you that.
Yeah i apologize for this mess, but there really isn't much i can do when it's just over spraying
for a good two seconds after i've completely lifted my finger off. That's insane. And it
seems to be specifically not liking the skinny cap because it's leaking out of the top here;
nothing out of the connection between the first cap and the adapter. It's the adapter to the
actual spray cap where it's leaking now. So it doesn't really like this thin cap. Okay so
you know what, i tried out a second universal / vegan outliner and i was able to determine that
the over spray is very consistent with this cap, but the leakage was actually just on the other
cap. So really it's just the over spray that i'm seeing a big problem with here. Basically
i will say right now that i've seen consistent over spray with every single cap I've tried, and
that being said i think since the entire purpose of this is to figure out if you have better can
control and see if you can get better details in say a piece or something, i'm just going to do
something very simple on here and just fill it in and add a couple little easy details and see if it
feels easier than just using a regular spray can. Because i want to know if this is actually any
better than a normal skinny cap than just a normal cap. Because right now i sort of doubt that it is
with the amount of overspray i'm getting on it and that being consistent across all the caps we've
tried. So yeah, just give me a little bit to do some sort of little piece. Yeah we'll get to it!
Because the skinny caps were just so bad on this thing,
i'm actually using an ny fat to do this outline right now.
Alright, so to be honest i tried this on the Flame can; i tried this on the Ironlak can; and it over
sprays so much that like i don't even want to use it. What i'm actually going to do, so that i can
embarrass myself a little bit less, is just finish this off with normal caps like a normal person,
then i'll give you my final thoughts on what exactly i think of this pressure adapter.
So as you can see i finished this off just with a normal skinny cap. I believe what i was actually
using was a Molotow skinny to do all the detail work because i just plain could not tolerate using
this pressure adapter. The over spray was terrible basically is the problem with it. Sometimes i get
people saying, "I don't know if your reviews are honest because you review everything and
make it all sound really good." Well for the most part things on the graffiti market, luckily for
all of us graffiti artists, are really good. This is not! I have no problem saying that this is just
crap because it is. You saw the difference between how much i was struggling to even do an initial
design with this and a new york fat or with this and the vegan outliner compared to afterwards when
i just started using a can with a normal skinny cap there. And whether you personally think what
i painted was good or not, objectively you could tell that my can control got significantly better
after i stopped using this and that's the main point here. Like this thing was embarrassing
me far worse than i could embarrass myself in a million years. That is that. To be honest i don't
recommend this product. Also the other thing, before when it was spraying out sort of around
the edges of this first cap, that was because it wasn't pushed down far enough and basically
there was no way for me to push it down far enough other than using those vice grips i
showed you earlier. So really i don't think the dimensions of it are perfectly fitted, but with
all that being said, i understand people have different experiences using the same products.
