    Hello,

    have you any experience with Glasurit clear and kandy concentrate e.g. from HOK? I working with Glasurit paint but I do not have any experience with candy paint. Or is it possible use as concentrate solid color from line 22 and add to clear coat?

    I live in Slovakia and HOK is very expensive here, so therefore I need found any other way for candy paint.

    thank a lot for advice

    in the old days when I was just starting candies were done by applying silver base and then top coating with a transparent color coat, then clear , but I believe this technique is no longer used. Newer paints can obtain the same effect with just a color base. :kofee

    stone its still don’t the same way but the days of the urethane type candies are fading away. most are no longer mixed into clearcoat, they are mixed into clear basecoat. adding solid colors and toners into a clear medium, clearcoat or clear base is not a real candy and does not work. a real candy is dye based and has no actual pigments which makes it totally transparent. if you are using glasurit you do know that basf has their own candy line right? the carizzma colors. its distributed under the rm name but i would think you can get that no problem. you should ask your jobber.
