I bought the purple royal light with matching flake to paint my daughters .22 stock. I had a couple of questions and called. They were very friendly and helpful. It came out beautifully, I know she’s gonna love it! The zoomed out pic is just the base color, and the zoomed in is after adding the flake and clear.

Great purchase, will buy more

It was amazing paint. It layed down smooth and pretty even. Only wish there was a data sheet with it for drying times and recoat window. Also it did have some big drops that would spray out of it from time to time. With that being said, it still layed flat.
