ARCO IRIS PAINT - 35µm / 20µm

ARCO IRIS 35MICRONS

INTRODUCTION:

Our new Arco Iris 35µm / 20µm is a prism effect paint:

It produces thanks to the light received (sun, lamp, headlight...) a perlescent effect with multi-rainbow colours.

Made of microflakes, odourless, powerful, and remarkably easy to apply:

The Arco Iris paint is a rare and high quality product, that has only advantages (compared to our Spectrum 12µm which is very delicate to apply, while our Rainbow Spektra 68µm is easy to apply but not very smooth)

Presentation of the SPECTRAL series

SPECTRAL colours are coloured and semi-transparent holographic paints.
Depending on the background colour used (white base W or black base B), it is possible to obtain an opalescent iridescent effect, or a coloured holographic effect.
The application method does not differ from classic holographic paints: the application is done on a base sanded with P500 with a few very thin layers until the desired effect is obtained

Spectrum Prismatic Paint

There is a paint with a “holographic” effect which contains the finest pigments in the world
This is Spectrum paint, which is offered on our site in 2 possible sizes (10µm and 12µm)
This paint is very special, and its method of application is very particular, since it must be done on a shiny and hard base, and its varnishing requires a particular technique.


APPLICATION

The product is ready to use and to be poured in the spraygun.

Used in automotive, the product can of course also be used outdoors, for design objects, furniture or sculptures. Semi transparent, it can be applied over all type of background colour: the darker the background, the more intense the effect. Topcoat must be applied after.

WARNING:

During the varnishing, the solvents of the varnishes can modify the state of the layer of holographic paint. This can cause microscopic flake movement and the holographic effect can be suppressed. It is important to always varnish with the following precautions:
Freeze the surface with 3 or 4 extra thin layers of varnish, waiting 1 minute between each coat.
Then varnish normally.

The application to the aerosol is much less easy than gun, we strongly recommend using our 'SPRAY CAN GRIP HANDLE'

Comparison:

Use of a glossy and satin background.
We get better results on a bright background. A satin or matte background produces a less intense effect.
