Flexible Metallic Copper Paint 240ml

As with all metallic paints, the visual result is significantly enhanced when applied over a dark base, ideally black. This improves metallic depth, intensifies brightness, and increases overall contrast. For best results, a flexible black primer is recommended, especially when aiming for a smooth, uniform, and high-impact metallic finish. Proper surface preparation is essential, including cleaning, light sanding if necessary, and applying a suitable base coat to ensure strong adhesion.

Application should always be done in very thin layers, especially the first coat. The initial layer should be light to ensure proper adhesion, followed by subsequent layers applied while the previous one is still slightly “tacky”. Thick applications or excessive build-up can compromise adhesion and create surface defects. Full curing is essential, with a recommended drying time of at least 24 hours, or longer depending on thickness. Airbrush or spray application helps achieve thin, even coats and reduces the risk of peeling. Dilution with water or a dedicated acrylic thinner is recommended for easier application.

The satin finish provides a balanced effect between matte and gloss, offering a subtle reflectivity that enhances details without exaggeration. It is especially suitable for flexible pieces as it resists dirt, handles frequent manipulation, and is easy to clean. Note: these paints are flexible, not elastic, and may crack if overstretched. They are not recommended on smooth or non-porous surfaces (glass, ceramic, glossy plastic, bare metal, concrete, stone, wood, silicone, or waxed surfaces) without proper priming. Contents: 1 x 240 ml.
