The pearl grains are mixed with clear coat or transparent base. They can be sprayed in multiple layers. A longer flash-off time is needed between each layer. The usual base coat under the pearl grains is a color in the same shade, but this is not a rule. You can view the photo gallery here.

Preparation and Spraying Process:

The application process for chameleon pearl grains involves mixing them with a clear base and then applying this mixture over the base coat. Spray in thin, even layers using a spray gun with a recommended nozzle of 0.8 – 1.7 mm (depending on the pearl grain size). After achieving the desired coverage and the layers have cured, the surface is protected with additional layers of clear coat to create a deep, glossy, and shimmering effect. Proper surface preparation and a consistent spraying technique are essential for a successful and uniform application.

1. Surface Preparation:

• Sand the base coat – substrate: For a new application, first apply a primer or base coat. If you are spraying on a previously painted surface, roughen it with 240-grit sandpaper for better adhesion of the new pearl grain layer.
• Clean the surface: Before applying any paint, make sure the surface is clean and dust-free. Degrease it with a silicone remover.

2. Mix the Paint and Pearls:

• Mix the components: In a container or disposable cup, mix the pearl grains with a clear base or clear coat. Follow the specific instructions provided in the clear base or clear coat's technical data sheet, as the ratio of pearl grains may vary.
• Add thinner or hardener: After mixing the pearl grains with the clear base, add thinner in the required ratio. After mixing with clear coat, add hardener and thinner in the required ratio to achieve the correct consistency for the spray gun.
  Ensure even distribution: Mix the mixture thoroughly to disperse the pearl grains evenly throughout.

3. Spraying the Pearl Grain Layer:

• Use the right equipment: A spray gun with a suitable nozzle size is required (0.8 – 1.7 mm depending on the pearl grain size).
• Application in layers: Before the first spray, we recommend doing test sprays. For direct application, apply thin, evenly overlapping layers. The first layer may provide only partial coverage. Use 3 to 7 layers, depending on the desired final effect. Follow the flash-off times between layers according to the instructions in the technical data sheet.
• Shake the gun while spraying: Regularly shake the spray gun or paint cup to prevent the pearl grains from settling at the bottom.
• Complete the finish: Continue applying layers until you achieve the desired coverage and effect. This creates the depth and gloss of the final finish.

4. Finishing the Process:

• Paint drying: Allow the paint to dry for a sufficient amount of time.
• Apply final clear coat: Once the pearl grains have dried to the desired level for clear coat application, apply one or more clear layers to protect against wear and enhance the gloss.

Tips and Maintenance:

• Regular mixing: Before each spraying session, mix the mixture thoroughly to prevent the grains from settling at the bottom of the cup.

• Base coat: For the best effect, use a base coat in a similar shade as the substrate.

• Spraying: Never allow the paint with pearl grains to dry completely before applying the next layer, otherwise it may peel off later. Follow the instructions in the technical data sheet for the clear base and clear coat and their flash-off times. The paint with pearl grains must not be wet, but must be dry and very tacky so that the next layer can be applied.
