Createx Candy₂o are "Candy" type paintings, recognized for their exceptional shine and transparency

Full description

Createx Candy₂o are "Candy" type paintings, recognized for their exceptional shine and transparency. These paintings are specially designed for airograph applications, but can also be used with other paint techniques.

These paintings are formulated with water -based, which makes them more respectful of the environment and less harmful than solvent -based paintings. Despite this, they are still extremely durable and resistant once dry.

Createx Candy₂o are extremely concentrated, allowing them to produce very bright and intense colors. They are ideal for creating depth and transparency effects in your works of art, in particular thanks to their ability to be superimposed in several layers.

To use them, you may have to dilute them with a high performance reducer like the Createx 4012, especially for airograph applications. You can also add an intermediate varnish, such as the Createx 4030, to improve the sustainability of the paint.

The Createx Candy₂o range includes many different colors, which allows you to easily find the one that suits your project. However, as they are transparent, they are generally used on a basic layer or an intercoat, rather than directly on an unpainted surface.

Painting advice

Painting a RC car body (radio controlled) can be a fun and creative process. Here is a series of general steps to paint a RC body using Createx paintings and an airbrush:

  1. Body preparation: The first step is to clean the body of your RC car well. You can use warm soapy water for this. Make sure to remove all dirt and oils that could prevent painting from adhering well. Let the body dry completely before continuing.
  2. Masking: If you plan to use several colors or if you have a specific design in mind, you will have to hide certain parts of the body. Use masking tape specially designed for this, and take your time to ensure clear and precise lines.
  3. Preparation of painting: Createx paintings must be well agitated before use. For the airbrush, you may need to dilute your painting. The consistency must be similar to that of a skimmed milk. If necessary, add a few drops of water or specific diluent for airbrush.
  4. Apply the painting: With your airbrush, start applying the paint with thin and uniform layers. Start by the edge and work towards the center. It is best to paint in several thin layers rather than a single thick layer to avoid drips. Let each layer dry before applying the next.
  5. Detail : Once your basic color is dry, you can add details or other colors if you wish. Make sure each layer is completely dry before continuing.
  6. Finishes: After letting your last layer of paint dry completely, you can gently remove the masking tape. For a brilliant and durable finish, consider applying a transparent varnish specially designed for airbrush painting.
  7. Cleaning: Do not forget to clean your airbrush after each use to keep it in good working order.

Remember that painting with an airbrush is a skill that improves with practice. So take your time and have fun with the process. Good painting!

Candy 2.0 application advice

The range of Createx Candy₂o paintings offers vibrant and transparent colors that are fantastic for airograph art and other painting techniques. Here are some tips for their use:

  1. Preparation : Start with a clean and dry surface. Candy₂o colors are transparent, so they are generally used on a base layer or an intercoat. The color of this base layer will influence the final appearance of the Candy₂o painting.
  2. Dilution: Candy₂o paintings are extremely concentrated. For airograph apps, you will probably have to dilute them. Createx recommends using their High Performance Reduce 4012 product for this. Start with a report of 1: 1 and adjust according to your preference.
  3. Mixture with 4030 Intercoat: For increased durability, you can mix the Candy₂o colors with the Createx 4030 Intercoat. This will improve the resistance of the paint and help prevent any cracks or scalpks.
  4. Application : Apply several thin layers rather than one thick layer. This will help prevent drips and get a more uniform color. Let each layer dry before applying the next.
  5. Drying: Let the paint dry completely before handling the object or apply a finish layer. The drying time can vary depending on the thickness of the paint and environmental conditions.
  6. Cleaning: Clean your airbrush or tools immediately after use to prevent paint from drying and blocking them.
  7. Security : Even if Candy₂o paintings are based on water, it is always recommended to work in a well -ventilated space and to use adequate protective equipment, such as a respiratory mask.

Remember, the practice makes the master! Do not hesitate to experiment and test the different techniques to find the one that suits you best.

Dilution advice

The dilution of the Createx Candy₂o paint is essential to guarantee a fluid application, especially when you use an airograph. Here are some tips for dilution:

  1. Dilution product: Use the Createx 4012 High Performance Reducer reducer. It is specifically designed to operate with Createx paintings and provides uniform dilution while maintaining the quality of the paint.
  2. Dilution report: A commonly used starting ratio is 1: 1 (painting: reducer). However, this may vary depending on the size of your airbrush and the effects you want to obtain. For a smaller nozzle (0.5mm or less), a greater dilution may be necessary.
  3. Test : Before starting your final project, try a piece of paper or another material to check the consistency of the paint. If the paint seems too thick or does not spray uniformly, add more reducers. If it seems too thin or transparent, add more paint.
  4. Blend : Be sure to mix the paint and the reducer well until you get a uniform consistency. A bad mixture can lead to an uneven application of the paint.
  5. Cleaning: After applying the paint, be sure to clean your airbrush or your brushes well. The Createx 4012 reducer can also be used for this.

Remember that each project may require specific adjustments depending on the surface to be painted, the size of your airbrush and the effect you want to obtain. So it's always good to test and adjust if necessary.
