Properties

Powder paints with shiny iridescence appeared on the market a long time ago and gained well-deserved popularity. To achieve such a decorative effect, manufacturers add ground copper, gold or silver to the basic coloring powder. A small amount of precious metal is required, so the price is not high differs from ordinary samples. In addition to metal additives, natural mica, aluminum and its oxide, silicon, liquid crystals are mixed. However, the paint from aluminum in the composition is difficult to buy — it does not withstand the influence of moisture and begins to quickly collapse.

Causing

Powders of this type are as easy to apply as others. But due to metal particles, it is necessary to reduce the corona charge on the spray gun, especially when painting complex products. In this way, you will enhance the iridescence and shine. The spraying distance should be slightly longer than usual.

Application

Most often, these paint materials are used for construction and in the automotive industry. Glitters in the coating give the details of the exterior of the building a stylish look. Paint and paint materials “mirror chrome” are popular in production of cars — they are easy to spot on the rims of any car.
