Illusion Metallic Powder Coating With the blink of an eye, a turn of the head, a step forwards
or back……what was red might be gold, what was blue now purple,
what was green now becomes a bronze. Sparkling, jewel like colors, which fascinate the
mind. Visually illusive, these products change color before your very eyes!
Like magic, they transform any object into something dazzling. Illusion products are designed as a minimum two-coat
process. A base coat, preferably high gloss polyester is applied and
followed by a top Blacks and darker colors tend to enhance the Illusion
products by adding depth and richness to the color. While most of the light
is transmitted, a small proportion is reflected. On dark, especially black
bases, the pigments reveal a distinct reflected color because most of the
incident light is absorbed. The wavelength of the reflected light changes
continuously with the viewing angle. (a phenomenon
known as color flop). For instance you will see colors changing form green
to blue, gold to bluish green, and copper-red to green. The observed color is always the result of the
Illusion color mixing between the base color and the reflected color of the
product. When the Illusion is applied to lighter base coats such as white,
there is less reflection resulting in less noticeable color changes and
appears almost as pearlescent. On light colored substrates, only a slight iridescence or a reduced color effect is visible because the base reflects most of the incoming light back through the transparent pigments. Creativeness is a must with these products and there are endless possibilities. As these are a topcoat, they require a basecoat to be baked first, standard pricing guide does not apply
Note: Due to monitor color limitations, all colors are approximate. |
