Correct. Mixing red flake or red pearl with black is going to make a form of brown. Mid coating the metallic will give you a better result, but it'll still look somewhat brown. I think the effect you're looking for is going to require using Kandy red over the metallic mid coat.
You can't mix paint with flake..it just colours the flake,,base the car,mix flake with binder and spray over then clear plus depending on your gun you need a 1.8 min for flake ..
That explains why the black came out like crap. When I do the bike I will do it with a clear midcoat then clear over it this time. The gun I use for that is 1.8.
@@StartYourEngines77 1.3 for base and clear,1.8 to lay the flake/clear binder,if you just want to have a red glitter effect try using red pearl in your black paint,,can be all mixed as one and sprayed with a 1.3
Oh how I wished I had hair to pull out while watching. What are you doing to that gun and why are you putting flake in black base. This is not what I thought I'd see.
It's best to lay your black down and then use a clear basecoat binder to put your flake in on top of the black
Like a midcoat, Then clear over it?
@@StartYourEngines77 yup then clear over all of it

Like that new intro you have.
I try to make it better.
Puts red flake in black paint and 90 percent of the flake gets turned black. Put it in the clear

Hmm now that is an idea to run with.
Only with candy paints
@@sll-tt6bj true candy isn't a paint..its a coloured laquer,,,,😉

Get a metal stir stick it is a lot better at showing the mixtures while you stir
Use intercaot spray glake
The F20 is the flake?
Yes. House Of Kolor F20.
