Effect Techniques
Water Drops
Step 1: Follow Best Demonstrated Practices for the type of substrate you are working on to provide a hight quality undercoat system.
-The effect works best when applying over light colors.
Step 2: Mix color at a ratio of 1:1 with the appropriate PCS Advanced Integrated Stabilizer for your spraying conditions. Apply 2 to 3 coats or until hiding is achieved.
- Allow Base color to dry for 30 minuets
Step 3: With a squirt bottle filled with water, lightly mist surface. Aim bottle up, squirting the water up and allowing the droplets to "rain down" on the surface. This will create more of a random appearance.
Step 4: With an airbrush, spray lightly at a low angle with white from one direction. Then change your color to black using the same technique, from the opposite direction. You will want to lightly coat the water droplets.
Step 5: Allow water to evaporate, you may bake dry. Do not blow dry, or otherwise touch the surface.
Step 6: After water has evaporated, Clearcoat using any Ultra Clearcoat. DO NOT TAKE OFF THE PANEL WITH A TACK RAG! If you do, you will remove the effect.
