can I use this paint on metal door hinges? And what kind of brush works best

I would not suggest it since it is water based. Paint may chip or flake off over time. I would use an enamel for metal, or silver rustoleum spray paint.

You can use any brush made for water based paints. I sprayed it on, with a garden sprayer and then brushed it out to make it more even. It goes on very watery; almost like applying water to the wood. It soaks in well but don't be surprised if there's some runoff. I suggest treating boards before building your project so you can cover all sides. I did mine on plastic so any runoff was reusable for other pieces. This is a great product!

Self etch primer would be a good idea if applying to bare metal. Although this is not a high temperature paint.

Yes, you can paint vinyl doors. But you have to prime it properly, and I would recommend using a paint sprayer (probably can just use spray paint). Just avod the glass (obviously), and the dog flap.

I use this paint for mud flap brackets that I build for pick up trucks. It works in the extreme conditions of wet, rocks, mud thrown at it. I think it will stick to the metal parts good, but you may have to put a plastic primer paint on the switch covers before the top coat. Hopes this helps.

No, this is strictly for maintaining the shine and luster on chrome components. You want to use a rust eliminator for prepping metal for paint. Possibly a primer to do so.

L., I would actually go with some J.B. Weld on that exterior door. I believe they make the quick drying still, and then the regular. I think the quick J.B. Weld sets up in about 4 minutes. This drys like metal and you can sand it and paint, etc.; afterwards. Also, I suggest the Steel Putty (it's less messy). There are several different brands of the putty available. I've never used the Bondo Plastic Metal on bigger projects. I probably overuse J.B. Weld, haha. Is that possible? It's the new duct tape.Thanks!

Per their website, this paint can be used on metal. https://decoart.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=D&Category_Code=DCP

My best guess is yes. If the paint is older it may take longer than is breaks up latex paint. I used it on wood painted50 years ago and at least 4 paint layers. It took the first two off fast. I reapplied it and it seemed to take 2-3x longer but it worked. If you use it i'd recommend a plastic brush vs metal as to not scratch up the metal. On wood i scraped it to bare wood.

Any type of paint or ink! I have a colleague who builds model ships and uses thinned house paint on his hulls! Here's the caveat: the paint must be mixed rather thin (think skim milk) and can't contain coarse pigment. How coarse? Get a few fine strainer funnels from a model tools supplier. If the paint passes easily through the finest mesh funnel it's OK to apply through an airbrush nozzle. Clean-up is a MUST, and acrylics are far easier to clean up. Water and mild detergent or Windex works for almost any routine clean-up job. The seals in your Master airbrush will not react negatively to a mineral spirits solvent but I wouldn't press my luck. This is an inexpensive set (I bought one for my granddaughter) that will work well for you but don't abuse it by leaving volatile spirits in the brush for prolonged peruiods. Good luck!

Both sides of a standard door both primer and top coat would take quite a bit of spraying maybe 90 minuets total is my guess. It's not fast and one goober and you have to wait and sand it out. I use this gun for trim work and smaller projects and would use it for a door but definetly would not purchase to use for a door. Hope that helps. Take the online advice and always always strain product first and don't delay in thoroughly cleaning this lil critter trust me!!!!!

I did not sand mine down and they were fine. I did use TSP, rinsed well and then used windex to get any leftover residue. So far paint has adhered very well. The brush that comes with the kit is amazing but I used an artist brush to go around the hinges so I didn't have to take off doors.

I have no experience with that paint and can't say yes or no. My general feeling is paints have some volatile matter which might give out fumes and would might affect the food & health. Just take metal brush run with it around and apply oil. It should be ok. I got a cover as well for this grill, but didn't do much benefit. I could see rust all over the place. So I turned back to old method (brush and oil). Planning to keep it in the basement or in garage when not in use.

yes. and I did not use a primer however, use of a primer and paint would not be a bad idea if the door handle gets used a lot.

It should be able to handle a hollow core door just fine. I have used mine to repaint exterior doors that are solid wood core with metal exterior and they worked just fine.

The paint is really thick. You could test it to see if it works, but I wouldn't recommend thinning it out. The thickness helps cover any flaws on cabinets.

You need to remember that it's the paint and not so much the gun that is the issue. It all depends on which type of paint (mainly how thick and how much you'll need to thin it out). The gun works with latex, oil-based, stains, etc., each of which require different conditions. If your paint is very thick (enamel metal paint may be too thick and can't be thinned enough to work). Need to check your paint instructions.
