Transparent Cosmic Flakes - 5 colours in concentrated paste

Cosmic flakes are made of polyester and are part of the Metal Flakes family. 

These are 200 micron particles, delivered in the form of transparent glitter incorporated in a resin to form a concentrated paste. The version allows to comply with the European regulation "ECHA Microplastics". The glitter is contained in a special resin and then mixed in a two-component varnish to form a dry and solid film.

What is the difference with classic Metal Flakes?

The Metal Flakes from the Cosmic range are transparent and interfering. They create colour by reflection of light, whereas the classic flakes are opaque particles already coloured.

The Cosmic effect:

The Cosmic flakes disappear and reappear depending on one's viewpoint. They go out and sparkle as you move around the painted part.

Some references are Chameleon type because they can display two colours.

Thickness:

The Cosmic range flakes are a bit finer and easier to cover with topcoats.

In all cases, it is necessary to apply several passes of topcoat.

Use:

Mix the Cosmic Metal Flakes in the bodywork type clear coats or in our water- or solvent-based binders

Dosing: from 60 to 180 g/L, depending on the desired coverage.

Size and spray guns: 0.2 mm

This flake size is suitable for all spray guns equipped of 1.4 mm nozzles.

The background colour:

A black background is normally used (primer or 1K Basecoat).

However, any type of background colour can be used, such as a colour similar to that of the flake, or the opposite colour, or even white.

Resistance:

COSMIC Flakes are completely resistant to sun and solvents.

They can be used in all types of bodywork topcoats
