What It Is

Pentart Chrome and Chameleon Rub on Pigment is an iridescent or color-shifting pigment that gives a metallic or chameleon finish to your project depending on the light.

 

When to Use It

Highlight raised textures, edges, or create light-reactive effects on your project.

 

How to Use It

  • Make sure the surface is dry and clean.
  • Load a small amount onto your fingertip or a soft cloth.
  • Lightly rub over your project area
  • Buff gently to bring out maximum shine.
  • Seal with a suitable varnish if the piece will be handled often. You can use Pentart Clear Varnish or Pentart Pouring Medium.

 

Pro Tips:

  • Apply sparingly; build layers slowly for control.
  • Use over dark base colors to intensify the color shift, I find glossy black paint works best.
  • Test on a scrap first to see the shift effect.
  • Use Black Heavy Body Gel or Mix Heavy Body Gel Glossy with black pigment and run through a stencil, after it dries add the pigment.
  • Dust a mould before using clear resin tinted with black pigment for brilliant colors.
  • For the smoothest finish use the dipping paint.
