DIY Paint Colors

This 25 gram bag of Deep Purple Candy Pearl (slightly darker than our standard purple) powder is a great pigment for creating your very own candy paint clears in paint or powder-coating applications. This pigment can be mixed a bit heavier to produce a metallic paint. It is guaranteed to mix well with any clear paints or tinted candy paints, and has a temperature threshold of about 400 degrees fahrenheit. It is a very fine powder and will spray well through airbrushes, powder guns, and HVLP paint guns. It is very light, so it stays well mixed in paint without settling too fast in your gun, and can make great tinted clears for light to heavy effects (it's your choice). One 25 gram bag treats from 1 to 4 quarts of clear, depending on how transparent you wish to make it. The beauty of this pigment powder is that it can be used on everything from making metallic looking leather, to gel coat, to even faux finishes and in decorative concrete sealer. Some people use it for make up and nail polish as well.
