Color tinted clear coating.

Post by kahless78 »

While playing around with some future and food coloring I found out that you can do tinted color clear coats. My formula was 6 parts future 1 part food coloring. My psi setting on my airbrush was at 25 psi and I was spraying 12 inches from the project. You must keep the brush moving. If you spray to long in any area you will get a dark colored section. If you do multiple coats the tint of the clear coat gets darker. Just thought I would share!

Thanks for sharing.

You can get great results with India Inks in Future as well.
