Start with a colour-keyed AutoBorne Sealer for best orientation.

EG: 6004 Auto-Borne Sealer ( Undercoat ) Yellow under 4303 Pearl Gold, all pearls also work well over Auto-Borne Sealer 6002 Black hence a darker representation

Auto Air Pearl Colors will lay down flat with an even pearl orientation when applied over a colour-keyed base colour Autoborne Sealer 6002 is also a popular ground coat.

By colour – keying with the base colour, less material is required which reduces the build-up of pearl that creates a mottled, splotchy finish.

Using minimal amounts of pearl is key to achieving an even metallic finish. It is also important to allow for adequate drying time in between coats of pearl colours so that each coat lays down in an even pattern.

If the underlying coat is still tacky, the next coat’s pearl will accumulate along the underlying coat’s pearl pattern and develop channels of pearl which may create a mottled appearance.

Colour-keying the pearl colours with the underlying base colour saves not only material, but allows for quicker drying times due to less material per coat and an even orientation in the finish.

On average, 2 – 3 coats are required for complete coverage. Orientation will benefit from a drop-coat after full coverage has been achieved. Reduce psi by 7 – 10psi and apply a single, cross pattern coat.

Clean up with 5618 airbrush cleaner and use in between colour changes, dried paint can be removed by using 4008 Restorer, reduce colours with 4011 Reducer .
