Premium Transparent Airbrush Paint for Glazing, Sneakers, and Textiles
Bring vibrant, organic tones and professional layering to your projects with the industry's trusted choice for multi-surface airbrushing. Jacquard Transparent Green is a premium fluid acrylic paint engineered for artists who demand smooth gradients and controlled color building. Available at SprayGunner, this 4 oz bottle is a favorite among custom sneaker artists and textile designers due to its incredible resistance to cracking, peeling, and chipping on flexible surfaces.
Unlike opaque paints, this transparent formula allows the underlying base color or texture to show through. This makes it the ultimate choice for realistic foliage, "candy-style" automotive finishes over metallic bases, and subtle tinting on leather, vinyl, and synthetic fabrics.
Why Choose Jacquard Transparent Green?
- Masterful Glazing: Perfect for creating smooth transitions and layering over metallic bases for a deep "emerald" effect without losing surface detail.
- Ready-to-Spray: Optimized for smooth delivery right out of the bottle—no thinning required for most 0.5 mm setups.
- Superior Adhesion: Bonds permanently to non-traditional surfaces like rubber, leather, PVC, and fabric.
- Studio Efficiency: The 4 oz value size is perfect for professional studios and high-volume production runs.

Instructions for a Flawless Finish
- Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are free of factory residue, wax, or oils. For leather and hard plastics, a light scuff with a fine-grit pad improves the bond.
- Building Depth: Apply in light, even passes. Final color intensity is determined by the number of layers—build the green slowly to maintain control over the shading.
-
Heat Setting:
• Hard Surfaces: Use a heat gun on low to help cure the paint.
• Fabrics: Use a dry iron on the appropriate fabric setting for 30 seconds. - Final Seal: For high-wear items like footwear, protect your work with a topcoat of Jacquard Airbrush Clear Varnish.
Pro Tips for Professional Results
- Shimmering Emerald Effects: Spray Transparent Green over a base of Jacquard Metallic Silver or Gold to create a deep, shimmering "candy" finish with incredible visual depth.
- Use a Light Base: Transparent colors perform best on white or light-colored surfaces. If working on a dark base, apply a layer of Opaque White first to ensure the green remains vibrant.
- Prevent Clogging: Never let acrylic paint sit idle in the airbrush. Flush with water between color changes to prevent internal drying and maintain smooth performance.
