    I remember watching a promotional video where they were demonstrating a automotive spray on chrome and what comes out of the spray gun is less than 1% their chrome pigment and the rest is deionized water
    So the 14 to 1 thinner to paint actually makes sense

    • @andrewamann2821
      @andrewamann2821 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That sort of ratio makes sense, when you consider how metallic paints function. Reducing the concentration keeps the flake (usually, but not always, mica...) from interfering with itself, and settling at angles not parallel or tangent to the surface that you're painting. It also makes the medium/binder less of a factor in getting the flake to lay down.
      You're never going to get it perfectly mirror reflective, but you can get impressively close with a combination of thin layers and wet sanding, basically just knocking back the high spots naturally created by the mica flake, and getting as close as possible to a glass-smooth surface through a process like this.

    Similar to painting NMM, surfaces appear more reflective when there are more shadows. The highest value (ie. brightness) is the same on all spoons from the light source, but thinning appears to preserve the shadow value (the black underneath) thereby increasing contrast and "shiny-ness".

  • @BAMACOUPE
    @BAMACOUPE ปีที่แล้ว

    The effect seems to be the same as when you shoot fades. By adding so much thinner, you're reducing the amount of paint in each pass of the airbrush. Since the metallics want you to shoot very light coats, the thinned paint is essentially spraying even less than you normally would. Thanks for the tip!

  • @raimee81

    Cool tip. I generally like the super metallics. Trying to get alclads in my country is tough. And generally trying to find a proper chrome paint is tough. I even tried using chrome paints in cans for cars. They work, but just like the super metallics demo'ed here, if you put too many layers it starts to become cloudy and dull. Looks fine, but not chrome. it would be cool if you could do a short follow up video, just to compare "actual" chrom paint with this technique. Just to see the difference. I think this trick would work really well in most situations.

    You can do this technique with Vallejo metal color chrome . The ratio is even higher, more thinner to paint. Lots of passes and drying time between coats.

    • @johnblack9885
      @johnblack9885 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've watched a lot of your videos and thank you for sharing the methods in spraying. To me there really is only 1 Chrome paint on the market. SPECTRA CHROME. The parent company is based in Tampa Florida. it is sprayed over a black shiny base. You wash off the material with distilled water and leave to dry in 70 degree heat. You can then clear coat it which turns it a slight yellow tint. You just add a dash of blue to the lacquer and give it a good thick coat. It is a perfect chrome finish. I need to spray some bumpers on a 55 Cadillac and been considering other methods as we do not have a Spectra Chrome firm in Ireland. If anybody has any contacts for the Spectra Chrome liquids, I'd love to hear from you........MO

    Good modeling community. I have seen a lot of videos of Chrome testing. I even seen that testirs is comming back out with a chrome paint. Have not used yet because it so hard to get. I think this video is very helpful will try once I am up running with air brush. But with all of that said I would like to share something I use and have a great results I think and that is dupli color perfect match universal chrome from the auto zone near me and it is very durable. But be careful it does come out fast so you dont need a lot. I also don't think it's to expensive it does do a long way. Well thanks everyone have a great day
