Description
Not easy to find, and hiding some deep dark secrets.
Dark Net, appearing red in the bottle, is our darkest shift paint, but one of the coolest. It is almost black with a deep cyan front facing color and brown shadows. In person you can’t take your eyes off of it.
It is recommended that this paint be used over a black primer.
Turboshift paints are made with tiny glass-like flakes that work like millions of small prisms within the paint. Depending on how the flakes are made, different colors are refracted or reflected in the light. In layman’s terms this means that the paint changes color depending on what light you are viewing it under, and what angle you are holding it to that light.
Formulated for airbrush use, but may also be hand brushed.
1. Don’t worry if the color of your paint looks different in the bottle than the label.
2. Shake the bottle until you hear the mixing ball rattling around, then shake some more.
3. To avoid a mess, make sure the bottle tip is clear before squeezing.
4. Use isopropyl alcohol or Simple Green for cleanup of dried paint.
5. To begin with, stick to the base color recommended on the bottle (black or white)
6. Apply 2 to 4 thin, even coats of paint with airbrush or paintbrush.
7. For airbrushing, we recommend to start with 0.5 nozzle, 25 to 30 psi and thinning by diluting 3 parts paint with 1 part airbrush medium.
8. For hand-brushing, dilute with either airbrush medium or a small amount of water using a wet brush.
Contents subject to change. Price includes in store coupon.
I bought two types. The effect is pretty cool but at $9 for a tiny bottle imo the paint is overpriced. You can make your own at the desired density by mixing something like Vallejo Mecha Gloss Varnish with an extra fine 2-tone mica powder ($2-3) from ebay. Total cost $3 per bottle and a ton of extra powder left over.
Also definitely make sure you airbrush this stuff, I tried with an airbrush and with a manual coat, the hand brushed coat leaves ugly streaks.
