Scott Wade’s dirty car art – Click above to watch video after the jump<\/a><\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nIf you were to research all of the posts ever published on Autoblog, you’d find that one of the most popular was one published back in June 2006 about artist Scott Wade<\/a> from San Marcos, Texas. Wade is a painter who, unlike his peers, uses dirty cars as his canvas. He turns dusty rear windows into masterpieces that only last as long as a stiff breeze or unannounced rain shower allows. <\/p>\n

At the time, we didn’t know much about how Wade created his art other than that typical artists’ tools like paint brushes were used. We recently found this video on YouTube created in January of this year, that details exactly how these amazing images are created. <\/p>\n

Surprisingly, Wade first has to clean<\/em> the rear window of the car he’s working on. He then applies almond oil to the glass so the special dust he uses, the same kind of fake dust used in the movies, will stick better. The dust is applied using a hair dryer to blow it onto the glass, and once an even and opaque coating has been achieved, he goes to work with his paint brushes. A complete piece of dirty rear glass art takes about 2-4 hours to complete, after which it’s either washed off or left to naturally decay on its own, which will happen fast. <\/p>\n

Take a look at the video after the jump<\/a> and revisit our gallery of past pieces by Scott Wade in the gallery below.<\/p>\n
