Faschange colours are applied over the top of a base
colour and create a shimmering metallic highlight which
subtly changes the overall effect when viewed from different
angles. Only one or two coats are needed as the effect
is quite strong but be sure not to put too heavy a coat
on as doing so will cause the colour to 'pool' into blobs
instead of giving an even covering over the body. If it's
the first time you have used a particular type of paint
it's always a good idea to have a try out on a scrap piece
of lexan to get the effect right. Keep all the old offcuts
from bodies, they're great for this.
Use Faschange straight out of the bottle, no thinning is
necessary. With a gravity or side feed airbrush the paint
can be squeezed out of the bottle (it has a cap and nozzle
like a washing up liquid bottle)straight into the colour
cup. With bottom feed airbrushes the original paint bottle
can be filled or the Faskolor bottle adaptor (part no 402420)
can be used. This screws straight onto the top of the Faskolor
bottle and plugs into the bottom of the airbrush in the
paint feed hole.
Spray at a pressure of between 50 and 70 psi laying down
light coats drying each one with a hairdryer before applying
the next.
