Application & Heat Setting Instructions
-
Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are free of factory waxes and oils. For bare metal or slick plastics, use a primer to ensure a factory-standard bond.
-
Base Coat Strategy: While opaque, applying over a dark base coat can enhance the iridescent "glow," while a white base coat keeps the red bright and vivid.
-
Mist Coats: Apply in light, even layers. Avoid over-saturating the material to ensure the iridescent particles settle evenly for a uniform shine.
-
Permanent Curing: Use a heat gun on hard surfaces once dry. For textiles, heat set with a dry iron at the appropriate setting for 30 seconds.
Expert Airbrushing Tips
-
Particle Management: Because this paint contains light-reflective particles, using a 0.5 mm nozzle ensures a smooth spray without clogging.
-
Prevent Clogging: Never let paint sit idle in the airbrush. Flush your equipment thoroughly with water or cleaner between color changes.
-
Protective Topcoat: For high-wear hard surfaces, apply a Jacquard Varnish to protect the iridescent finish from scuffs and UV fading.
