    Painting propane tanks by spinning them - GIF

    Painting propane tanks by spinning them. Perhaps not the safest implementation of this technique, but still interesting.

    No concern with overspray with a setup like that, more paint goes into the booth than on the cylinders.

    I hope it's water borne paint. That's not exactly the highest quality filtration gear he's wearing.

    If they are only going to be fired out of a homemade mortar, why are they even bothering to paint them?

    After they fill propane tanks with explosives, that’s what they do with them in Gaza and other nearby states.

    I knew a stupid kid that did that with a mouthful of lighter fluid, he was outside a pizza's shop thermal pane window and I was inside and felt the blast of heat.
