This 25 gram Ruby Red DIY Paint Colors Paint powder is a great pigment for creating your very own tinted metallic clears in faux finish or auto custom paint or powder-coating applications. It is guaranteed to mix well with any solvent based paints, water based paint, 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. Ruby Red Candy Pearl 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 2 quarts of clear. 

Try using it to make faux finish paint or even screen printing it on cloth! It can even make leather look metallic. Mixes with any clear medium.

Remember, if you want your paint to take on the actual color of the Ruby Red candy pearls, we suggest painting it over a black base coat. If you already have a black car, then it can be scuffed up to make a good surface to paint on. 

We have seen our candy paint pigment used in many industries, including powder coating, plastic manufacturing, custom airbrush art, and gel coating. They work just as well for beginners as they do for professionals. One common mistake that beginners make is that they buy our Reby Red DIY Paint Colors when they want to create a paint that changes in the sun, or as we call it, a “ghost” pearl paint job. These candies will change the overall color of your project, so please keep that in mind! Remember to visit our tips pages for other useful information.

Not only do all of our DIY Paint Colors work great in vehicle dip, we were the first company to supply the dip community with its pigments.  If you have any reservations about whether our products work in vehicle dip, you should know that we were the pioneers who introduced Plasti Dip Pearls to the world.

We recommend using 1 bag per quart of sprayable clear for an opaque metallic like paint.  For a more translucent candy type of paint mix 1 bag to 2 quarts of sprayable clear. These are starting ratios and can be adjusted for your specific job.  If you have any questions you can always contact us or visit our FAQs page.
