What is the Candy effect ?
In brief, it is a transparent colour effect (the Candy clearcoat) applied over a metallic background (Candy undercoat).
The result: an exceptional bright and intense colour.
Our Candy clearcoats are formulated with the most efficient bodywork clearcoats: they guarantee the best results in terms of gloss, thickness, and resistance.

Application method
Over a clean frame, prepared and sanded with abrasive sheet 500.
The three steps are applied successively, without waiting more than 30 min between each :
1 - Apply the black base paint in a few fine coats successively.
2 – Apply the Candy undercoat (Bright Aluminium BC1) in fine passes, repeat until the black background is covered
3 – Apply the Candy clearcoat in a steady and careful manner. Wait 5–10 minutes between each coat to avoid drips. It is touch dry in 40 minutes, and fully cured in only 2 hours. The mixture is usable for 20 minutes.
What is the resistance ?
It is not necessary to clearcoat afterwards.
The Candy colours are UV resistant, and the UHS 830 clearcoat is solid and resistant.
Do you want to reinforce the gloss? Find here our clearcoats in can or in spraycan.
Why not to exceed the 30 min limit between each step ?
If you exceed the limit, adhesion is no more garanteed.
If you wish to apply stickers, you must let it dry, then sand with an abrasive sponge.
Do i need a primer ?
If the frame is not smooth, or is raw carbon or raw metal, then you will need to apply a primer.
