Spaz Stix Ultimate Backer for Mirror Chrome Airbrush Paint, Black, 2-Ounce

I was skeptical to be honest but this tries really works well it does take several light coats layered to get the right effect if it still looks like aluminum give it another 1 or 2 it will chrome up

This is my 3rd bottle of the gloss black & the chrome. Perfect coverage even for a newbie with a cheap $20 airbrush set up. I mostly paint models made of plastic and adheres well with proper prep work. Will be buying more once I’m out.

My fiance and I bought this and the Ultimate Mirror Chrome to paint Daft Punk helmets for Halloween. We bought an inexpensive paint gun to paint the helmets rather than using an airbrush, because using an airbrush on such a large object would have been a bit meticulous. The paint worked great in the gun and we used about three bottles to fully cover the helmets. The backer gave the chrome a deep look and I doubt it would have worked without it. We had no problem getting the paint to stick to the plastic helmets after we sanded them down and put a clear coat on them even though the paint is meant for RC cars.

Pintura de muy alta calidad y puede aplicarse con aerógrafo o pincel. Recomendada al 100%

Flows well. Drys matte black.

Since Rustoleum is discontinuing Testors and Model Master, I need a new gloss black and found this. Tried it and at first I was very disappointed, but I decided to thin it a bit and that seems to have fixed it. Using regular Testors enamel thinner, and mixing it at a ~3:1 to 4:1 paint/thinner ratio has made a world of difference. Now sprays a good, smooth coat and dries slow enough that it comes out almost mirror-reflective. The only downside, Ultimate Chrome isn't *quite* as reflective as I'd like, but I'm not about to rule out it just being user error on my part. For what it is, depending on how their High Gloss Black turns out, this might be my new go-to for gloss black.

Great color. Had trouble with it laying smooth until I took it from the hot garage and cooled it in the fridge for about ten minutes.
