Color effect airbrush paints

It is the desire to make certain special effects accessible to as many people as possible which is at the origin of the creation of the Sparkle airbrush paints and more precisely of the series of multicolored airbrush paint effects.

First of all, the consumption of products by airbrushes logically induces formats from 17 ml up to a maximum of 125 ml. Many customers couldn't afford to order 500ml or 1 liter paint cans to use their airbrush. what Chameleon effect paints or holographic paints actually are.
Color references have therefore been created in the Sparkle range, which are real special effect paints for professionals, but packaged in a bottle accessible to everyone. world. It is not easy to know because these paintings have been renamed. Naturally, only 4 or 5 colors at most were offered in these formats in a discreet way.
It is by no means the entire range that was offered in a 125 ml bottle, because naturally, it is far too large. A selection of the most beautiful and interesting colors has therefore been made to be integrated into the paints of the SPARKLE range.
We remind you that this range is made up of iridescent, pearly or metallic paints. As a result, Chameleon or holographic effect paints fit naturally and perfectly into the interior.

Multicolored colors of Sparkle airbrush paints

There are possibilities to make a painting multicolored, thanks to color changes which can take place for example according to the light or the temperature.
But here, there is no question of this type of paint. We are talking here about changing visual effects, i.e. paints that can appear for example green from one angle and pink from another angle.

As for prismatic paints which are, we remind you, cousins ​​of "Colorshift" effects, the visual phenomenon is somewhat similar with the gradual passage from one color to another, through a colored reflection.
It must be understood that, in all cases, the color is not created by a colored pigment, but rather by the reflection of the light which sparkles on the pigment. In the case of the prismatic effect, there are some differences such as the natural color of the pigment which is gray, which is perfectly different from the color of the reflection which travels in all the colors of the rainbow.
The composition of one paint or the other also shows notable differences, because in the case of Chameleon colors, the color change is produced by a thin layer of transparent metal on the mother-of-pearl surface. Depending on the composition and thickness, the colors and color changes are different.
In the case of the holographic effect, which simply gives the most amazing multi-color paint, it is above all a question of the shape of the pigment, which will create reflections and reflections of different wavelengths depending on its wavy shape, and therefore the angle of reflection of the light.

Possible uses of multicolored colors

This Sparkle range has many qualities, one of the main ones being its thinness: we are talking here about the thinness of the layers after drying. They are solvent-based paints, and unlike water-based paints, there is no significant thickness. This allows great flexibility and perfect positioning of the nacres in the paint.
For uses, this brings many advantages such as the possibility of painting flexible materials. This can be fairings, jackets or even leather boots.
Often it is not necessary to apply the paint as it is planned to do but to prove according to your desires and your creativity , different destinations for his painting.

Sparkle multicolored color preservation

As everywhere, there is practice and theory: but this does not really apply to the solvent-based product, because unlike water-based paints, solvent-based paints do not really have an expiry date. Their properties do not deteriorate over time. This is not always the case with acrylic paints which, despite everything, can be usable 3 to 4 times longer than the expiry date indicates.
What to avoid , is the evaporation and drying of the paint. It is therefore necessary to close the bottles well and avoid the loss of the solvents. The phenomenon can be accentuated with heat, and also when the bottle contains a large quantity of air. It is normal for air to react with the resin and for solvents to cause the paint to dry out or thicken.
To simply answer this frequently asked question, solvent-based paints can be used for many years, that is to say beyond 5 years if the bottles are hermetically sealed.
