Description

Cu-29 Basecoat
is an epic Alpha Custom Color with the best aspects of candy and custom colors! This is a "Candy Pearl" basecoat BUT covers significantly better than the traditional candy pearl. This has 5x the amount of pearl which we formulated to give much better coverage without sacrificing the candy effect. This is a copper with gold candy undertones which really brings a beautiful depth and vibrancy to this color!

This color is best over a black sealer as shown on the speedshape in photos.

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, vehicle paint kits, painted samples, and more!

 Type of paint:     Candy Pearl Basecoat Paint
 Mixing Ratio: Mix Ratio: 1:1 (Basecoat :AR-30xx Reducer)
 
 Coverage : Great
 Basecoat Recommendation : Black Sealer for full coverage

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 Cu-29 Spray Can

Your products are top notch!! I used the black primer sealer first, then the color (3 coats) followed by the 2K clearcoat (2 coats) everything sprayed amazing. I couldn’t believe how nice the clear went on and dried perfectly. Would definitely recommend and would absolutely use again.
