This pack provides everything you need to create "liquid metal" effects right out of the box.
What’s Inside the Metallic Exciter Pack?
This set contains nine (9) 0.5 oz bottles, including a protective varnish and the most popular shimmering shades:
- Metallic Colors: White, Blue, Red, Yellow, Copper, Silver, Solar Gold, and True Gold.
- Topcoat: 1 bottle of Clear Varnish for added depth and surface protection.
Why Artists Choose Jacquard Metallics
- High-Performance Sheen: Formulated with premium pigments that provide a deep, reflective metallic finish that mimics real metal.
- Unrivaled Flexibility: The go-to choice for sneaker customization; these paints move with the shoe to prevent chipping or cracking.
- Ready-to-Spray: Use directly from the bottle with no thinning required. Optimized to reduce tip-dry and clogging in professional airbrushes.
- Multi-Surface Mastery: Superior adhesion on non-traditional substrates like PVC, leather, metal, and synthetic fabrics.
Technical Specifications & Pro Application

Instructions for Use
- Preparation: Surfaces must be 100% clean. Wash fabrics and strip leather of factory conditioners. Use a primer for bare metal surfaces.
- Application: Spray in light, thin passes. Avoid over-saturating the surface to maintain the integrity of the metallic finish.
- Curing: Use a heat gun on hard surfaces. For fabrics, heat set with a dry iron at the appropriate temperature setting for 30 seconds.
- Varnish (Optional): Once the color is completely dry, apply the included Clear Varnish in light coats to enhance shine and scuff resistance.
Expert Maintenance Tips
- Proper Sizing: Metallic particles are larger than standard pigments; always ensure your airbrush tip is at least 0.5mm to avoid clogs.
- No-Dry Policy: Never leave metallic paint sitting in the airbrush bowl. Flush thoroughly with water or airbrush cleaner immediately after use.
- Base Coat Secret: For the most vibrant results, apply Metallic colors over a white base. For a deep, moody "heavy metal" look, apply over a black base.
