Maston Candy Effect – 400ml Spray
Turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. Whether you’re customizing a bicycle frame, giving a glass vase a modern edge, or adding a high-end look to automotive trim, Maston Candy Effect provides that deep, translucent "anodized" finish usually reserved for professional custom paint shops.
This is a fast-drying, transparent lacquer enriched with metallic pigments. Because it is translucent, it allows the substrate (or base coat) to shine through, creating a unique sense of depth and a finish that mimics pearl-anodized aluminum. The more layers you apply, the deeper and more intense the color becomes.
Key Features:
- Professional "Candy" Look: Achieves a high-gloss, multi-dimensional finish that looks like it was done in a spray booth, all from a convenient aerosol.
- Versatile Surfaces: Unlike many effect paints, this bonds beautifully to glass, metal, stone, and most hard plastics (when used with a plastic primer).
- Rapid Layering: With a flash-off time of only 3 minutes, you can build up your desired color intensity in a single afternoon without the long waits.
- Forgiving Application: Formulated with "no run-down" technology, it’s designed to stay where you spray it, making it easier for DIYers to avoid drips and sags.
Pro-Tips for a Flawless Finish
- The "Gauzy" First Coat: Always start with a very thin, "mist" coat. Don't worry about coverage on the first pass; this creates the "anchor" for the following layers.
- Build Your Depth: Wait 3 minutes between coats. For a light, tinted look, 2 coats are usually enough. For a deep, rich "Candy" effect, apply 3-5 thin layers.
- Base Coat Magic: While it can be used on bare metal or glass, applying it over a silver or chrome base coat will significantly enhance the "pop" and metallic sparkle.
- Keep it Moving: Because the paint is translucent, any hesitation will result in a darker spot. Keep the can moving at a steady pace, roughly 25cm from the surface, for a perfectly even tint.
Give your projects a "sweet" upgrade - Maston Candy Effect turns every surface into a work of art.
