My motorcycle turned out amazing..

Amazing color!

This is a great color and paint as I bought the spray cans for some smaller projects and it looks so amazing with a black base coat and the 2k clear over it. Already am purchasing more colors and flakes as well to paint some smaller things with it.

Awesome color great quality

Perfect

The intercoat clear isn't sticky like other clears. It provides flawless results. It's hard, durable and easy to apply. I recommend it!

Great coverage, layed down flat and even, correct mixture. I will caution folks who use this for hobby such as model building; it is kinda hot, so you’ll need a sufficient barrier between the plastic and the paint.

Awesome Color!

I'm a bit biased because purple is my favorite color, but not just any purple. I really like the deep/bright electric purple and this is about as close as I have been able to find to what I would say is perfect. The only thing that would make it better, in my opinion, is if there was a bit more "shimmer" to it. I'm not a big fan of metal flake, but a little flash added would be cool. I tried spraying it over plain white to try to make the purple pop a bit more, and although it appeared a bit brighter, it didn't have any pazazz to it. I ended up spraying it over a very light pearlescent silver, which looked much better, but I think a pearlescent bright white would be perfect. I know the company offers a Purple Royale Light, but the images on the site look like it would be too light for my taste. Too bad there isn't a Purple Royale Medium. I'm sure I will eventually find the perfect base coat for this purple that I'll be happy with. But again, overall, this color is amazing and I'm glad Tropical Glitz popped up on my social media feed!

Phenomenal product

Love the rattle cans! Used them on a chopper project while my paint booth was still packed in storage and my project is coming along beautifully. Manny goes out of his way to fix issues with shipping or damaged products. 10/10. Can wait to use on future projects as well. I have three custom bikes to paint this summer and I will be using Tropical glitz on all of them for sure now.

Thanks again for smoothing that order issue out Manny.

The packing was awsome. It could have been ran over and survived

Flakes came out spectacular! Better than expected! Would definitely recommend these flakes for your custom diecast

Love it

loved the color but how about making it in a smaller aerosol can. I use it for the 1/25 models and big can is just too much. also why not a clear coat that doesnt have to be used within an alotted time once you open it?
