Everytime I see these tutorials I feel motivated to try new colors and techniques on my bikes. Thanks

THanks for this. Using the candies a lot in my art I'm constantly blending colours and a tangerine is one I'd say is "missing" in what I like to spray.

I appreciate the colour theory vids you folks do.

Thank you very much. I need Tangerine Candy the next days by a Harley project! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Very cool, keep making these vids, I'll keep watching

I would like to see some chrome paints and candy over chrome. I love candy's and I paint fishing lures and it's hard to get good coverage one small baits in chrome..

[changemymind]

Sweet! For some reason I assumed you can't mix candy2o with the wicked line... great info as always!

Excellent video Chris!! Tangerine is one of my go to's, so many thanks. Also throwing in how to create the candy pearl Tangelo was awesome!! Chris, is there any chance of coming up with a color close to Sun Gold Orange?

[johnwargo]

Those are all awesome looking colors chris. Is there any difference in UV fade resistance between a candy and a pearl when covered with a urethane top coat.

Thank you so much for this. This is exactly what I was looking for but wasn't able to achieve on my own. I find mixing candies very difficult because I can't tell what the color mix looks like until I paint it. When I mix normal paints I can tell right away if I have what I want. Is there a process to follow when mixing candies so I'm not making wild guesses and wasting paint? I know color theory very well but is there a way to creep up on a color when mixing candies?

What would happen if you mixed the silver and gold together for the base coat?

So, 4050 is now the "go-to" additive for hard surfaces for any color that specifies 4030 on the bottle? I paint lexan RC car bodies exclusively, and most of my Createx bottles specify 4030 for hard surfaces. Should I just always use 4050 instead of 4030, for these applications?

[josephstanczak]

I have a customer who wants a slot car body painted in tangerine, but with a matte clearcoat. Would I still use 4050 with the Candy2o then clearcoat matte? Or use the 4052 with the candy? OR should I just steer him to Wicked Orange and just matte coat that?

[timbutler]

very cool but I'm still waiting for
createx to make a gold sealer

Cuanto cuesta 1 galon de esa pintura? En dolares😅

[roberthoffert]

I was wondering can you spray these colors through an air brush? Can they be used on styrene model car kits?

[piptyson]

Does Createx recommend a solvent based topcoat to go over their color coats? I've heard people sy to watch out for putting solvent based over water based, but maybe this isn't really an issue? Maybe it's just about proper dry times?

[fdarkstar]

should the "bleed checker" be applied before the clear coat? I want to try a candy/pearl deep purple and found that the candy deep purple does bleed heavily with out the bleed check

[lethalaffection]

ok. so next i want to see how one would turn a candy color into a pastel type shade. like a candy pink or candy mint

Woukd love to airbrush a lure with a dark blue fading into light blue back down too shoulder of lure, flip it over, sparkle white, fading into a light yellow silver sparkles, leaving sides no paint, it’s holographic hit stamped and run a small arched gold yellow orange stripe wide front down to pin size end, moss green back gill plate fading into light lime green, add sinusoid eyes red green then dip into a clear coat with silver flakes in it, candy colors my next package deal I’m buying, dorado lures and WaHoo lures all candy I can go to town

Do you use sealers underneath the metallic gold and charcoal
