What's everything I need to paint my project?

We sell complete paint kits for any size vehicle here: https://thespraysource.com/collections/all-car-kits. Just choose the color and answer 4 questions and we add all the products needed to complete the project!

What is this basecoat made out of?

This is an Acrylic Urethane Basecoat.

Does this paint need a clearcoat on top?

Yes, this is a basecoat paint which needs a high quality clearcoat sprayed over top of it for durability and shine. We recommend AC-4521 or any of the other Alpha Automotive Clearcoats on our website.

Can you paint your calipers with this paint?

Yes - our paints work great on calipers, engine blocks, and valve covers!

What is the recoat & topcoat window for Alpha Automotive Basecoats?

You have an 8hr recoat window. If its over 8hrs - scuff with a gray scuff pad , spray another coat of base, then continue as normal with the project.

How can I add a Pearl effect of another color while not changing the end result color much?

We would recommend you either adding Diamond pearls into the base coat or ideally spray our Diamond pearl midcoats over top. Over top will give you the most effect while also not changing the color as much as mixing it. Also mixing it in you will need quite a bit of pearl to be able to see it.

Is this ready to spray out of an airbrush or would it have to be thinned?

Flows out of a .5 or larger. Any smaller it MIGHT have to be further reduced
