Application & Heat Setting Instructions
-
Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are free of waxes and conditioners. Use a primer for bare metal to ensure a factory-standard bond.
-
The White Base Rule: Since fluorescent colors are naturally semi-transparent, apply over a solid white base coat to unlock the paint's full neon luminosity.
-
Mist Coats: Apply in light, even layers. Avoid over-saturating the material to ensure the paint maintains maximum flexibility.
-
Permanent Curing: Use a heat gun on hard surfaces. For fabric, heat set with a dry iron at the appropriate setting for 30 seconds.
Expert Airbrushing Tips
-
Infinite Mixing: Jacquard colors are fully intermixable. Mix Fluorescent Red with Fluorescent Yellow for a "Lava" orange or with White for a glowing neon pink.
-
Prevent Clogging: Never let neon paint sit idle in the airbrush. Flush your equipment thoroughly between color changes to prevent internal drying.
-
Opacity Control: Build your color depth using multiple thin passes. This preserves the texture of your leather or fabric while achieving maximum color saturation.
