Wicked Hi-Lite Colors are water-based, acrylic, multi-surface airbrush paints suitable for any airbrush project and spray-gun application. Small, pearlescent lightfast pigments of colour combined with a durable transparent resin make Wicked Hi-Lite Colors an excellent choice for interior or exterior applications. Hi-Lite Colors have low light refraction and create subtle pearl effects in direct light when top-coated with a gloss clear, such as 4050 UVLS Gloss Clear.
Crystal-shaped pearls with a soft effect, suspended in a transparent base that spray transparent direct from the bottle.
- Very similar to the shimmering effect of pearlescent fish scale.
- Concentrate. Extend with 4004 Transparent Base, 4050 UVLS Gloss Clear or 4030 Balancing Clear, to create a durable acrylic-urethane resin blend that adheres better to hard-surfaces and cures to a more durable, mar-resistant coating.
- Thin with 4011 Reducer ~ 5% - 10% per vol.
- Apply over a black or colour-keyed base colour with a 0.5mm or larger airbrush tip-size.
- Apply sparingly as a mid-coat colour over any other base colour.
- Apply over Wicked Metallic Colours for added glow, for example 404 Hi-Lite Blue over 6013 Silver Sealer.
- Pearl-flakes may also be mixed with Candy2o to make candied pearl colours that are deep and vibrant.
- Air pressure generally set at lower 20 to 40+ psi.
