Description

Midnight Purple 3 Alpha Custom Color Basecoat
is our take on the VERY popular OEM color Nissan offered on the R34 GTR in the 90s (pant code LXO). 
After pursuing this color for years, we are finally happy with that we have to offer, and we think you will be too! This isn't a 100% match, but it is overy close and a FRACTION of the price of the original. This product wasn't only to replicate and lower the price, but to also offer this awesome color to the liquid wrap market, since until now, they were not able to achieve it!
All of our Alpha Custom Color Basecoats are bound in a specifically formulated binder that has pigment control (to avoid striping or mottling), great UV Resistance, crystal clear, and great pearl suspension.
This color is also available in aerosol spray cans, drop in pigment, vehicle paint kits, painted samples, and more!
 Type of paint:    4-8 color pearl paint basecoat
 
 Micron Size: 30μm
 Mixing Ratio: Mix Ratio: 1:1 (Basecoat :AR-30xx Reducer)
 
 Coverage : Good
 Basecoat Recommendation : Black Sealer for full coverage

Product FAQ's

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

Customer photo review of Midnight Purple 3 Alpha Custom Color Aerosol Spray Can Midcoat

came out vary nice but you have to lay it on thick or it won't look right

Midnight Purple 3 Alpha Custom Color Aerosol Spray Can Midcoat

Store owner replied: Thank you for the feedback, Hunter! That Midnight Purple 3 came out beautifully! The depth and color shift really pop when the midcoat is applied generously, so you nailed it.We're glad you stuck with it and are happy with the results. Thanks for trusting TSS with your project!

Customer photo review of Midnight Purple 3 Alpha Custom Color Aerosol Spray Can Midcoat

Easy to use and the color came out perfect. Only thing I’d recommend is saying what color primer to use with it. I had gotten grey from you guys but after research online I ended up having to buy black. Other than that great product. Came out looking sick. The clear coat you guys have made it look amazing. That 2k is great!!

Looks great. Has an awesome color shift. Did it on a center console for a 2003 gmc envoy. My painter guy said it sprayed out great for being in a can.

Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Rich color with smooth transition, absolutely perfect.

Midnight Purple 3 Alpha Custom Color Basecoat

Store owner replied: Looks great! We're happy you're loving the color! Thanks so much for the support!

It's a shame - I love the color, but since it's now getting close to 2 months since I placed my order and I am still waiting on a significant part of my order - having been told that it was shipped while there is no indication that it ever left TSS; and having reached out almost a month ago to see why it had never shipped with no meaningful update or news since - I find it impossible to recommend doing business with this company. Save yourself some hassle, spend your money elsewhere.
