Anglinarcher Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Well yes, and no. https://www.mckenziesp.com/WCM7071-P12923.aspx https://www.mckenziesp.com/Iridescent-Colors-C2627.aspx http://www.airbrush.com/AA-Aluminum-Base-Coat-Fine-4oz/productinfo/162645/ http://www.airbrush.com/4100-Series-Aluminum-Bases/departments/1200/ I have used the above options, and the Aluminum Bases actually give a pretty good silver color that does not grey as bad with clear coats. You must use medium or large needles on your airbrush, but I use the Talon so I can change my needles at will. It works ok, a little learning curve, but I have no issues as long as I keep the needle size in mind.

Bois d'Arc Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Larger needle sizes work best. I use a Paasche TG Talon airbrush with a .66mm air-cap, tip, and needle for spraying glitter paint. This setup works pretty well but requires frequent and thorough cleaning. I use FolkArt brand glitter paint mostly because its readily available and inexpensive. Edited November 7, 2017 by Bois d'Arc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 I dust Createx pearls over a color to get a metallic effect. Usually gold. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
