Spaz Stix Colour Change Gold Green Orange Purple Airbrush Ready Polycarbonate RC Paint 2oz 59ml SZX05500

Spaz Stix Colour Change Gold / Green / Orange / Purple Airbrush Ready Paint creates a dramatic chameleon finish that shifts through multiple colours as the viewing angle and lighting change. Designed primarily for clear polycarbonate RC car and truck bodies, the translucent effect produces brilliant gold, green, orange and purple highlights over the required black backing colour.

The formula is pre-thinned and ready to spray directly through a suitable airbrush. For clear polycarbonate bodies painted from the inside, apply a light mist of Spaz Stix Surface Pre-Prep first, followed by several light, even coats of Colour Change paint. Once the effect is uniform, apply Spaz Stix High Gloss Black Backer behind it to develop the full colour shift, depth and intensity.

FAQ

What colours does Spaz Stix SZX05500 shift between? The finish changes between gold, green, orange and purple depending on the lighting conditions and viewing angle.

Why does the Colour Change paint appear transparent when sprayed? This is normal. SZX05500 is a translucent effect paint rather than an opaque colour. Build the effect gradually using several light, even coats. Its full depth and colour shift become apparent after the required black backer is applied.

Does SZX05500 need to be thinned before airbrushing? No. This is an Airbrush Ready formula supplied pre-thinned for direct use in a suitable airbrush.

Does this paint require a black backer? Yes. Spaz Stix High Gloss Black Backer SZX00110 or SZX00119 is required to develop the intended Gold / Green / Orange / Purple colour-changing effect.

Which paint goes on first inside a clear RC body? After preparing the body, apply the Colour Change paint first using several light coats. Once the effect layer is even and dry, apply High Gloss Black Backer behind it.

Should I use Spaz Stix Surface Pre-Prep? Yes. A light application of Spaz Stix Surface Pre-Prep SZX90050 or SZX90059 is recommended before the Colour Change paint to help achieve a clean and consistent finish.

Should I spray heavy coats to build the colour faster? No. Colour Change paint should be built gradually with multiple light, even coats. Heavy application can create runs or uneven areas that become visible in the finished colour-shifting effect.

Can SZX05500 be used for external painting? Yes, but the application sequence is reversed. For an external application, apply High Gloss Black Backer first, followed by the Colour Change paint, then protect the finished surface with a compatible clear coat such as Spaz Stix SZX90109.

Can it be used on materials other than polycarbonate? Potentially, but compatibility should be tested before completing the project. The paint is primarily intended for clear polycarbonate RC bodies.
