[@jesussantibanez6711]

very well explained thanks for sharing 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@LiquidConceptsUSA]

Glad it was helpful!

[@terrylockwood2430]

Thank you for doing this! I’ve been looking at your candys I have a project coming up and was wondering how it is mixed. When I trained you had a teal candy already mixed and in a cup. We used that instead of mixing new. I have a mailbox to dip in a skull pattern customer wants red can’t over it

[@superblackbird7889]

Thanks alot for showing this . I am about to paint my motorcykle with candy blue , so now it is more easy to understand how to hopefully get a ok result .

[@LiquidConceptsUSA]

Glad it helped ! Thanks for watching !

[@OneLove369_]

Also can I use other candy concetrares with your inter coat and reducer?

[@OneLove369_]

Will the 6 to 1 mix give a wetter look? I know it will cover better. I assume it would give a better depth of color correct?

[@jtmcfarland3512]

No, you haven’t lost me with elementary school algebra thank goodness. Summary: mix about 8 parts reduced intercoat clear with one part candy concentrate. Dilute to desired color saturation.

[@aquaticnstuff7666]

lol yeah thats what I got too, the range is 6:1 to 14:1

[@user-eo9ie4wr1w]

Will the candy concentrate make two gallons of candy color

[@larryjohnson945]

Can you tell me how to mix voodoo violet candy concentrate. What do I need to and to a quart. This is going to be my first paint job so I decided to paint my Harley Davidson sportster thanks in advance

[@LiquidConceptsUSA]

You can add the concentrate directly to your clear coat or you can add it to an intercoat (clear basecoat). We prefer to mix in with an intercoat. For intercoat you would mix it 50/50 with reducer and then we add in 1:10 of candy. You can adjust the candy ratio depending on how light or dark you want the candy to appear.

[@diegorubio8312]

@larryjohnson I’m shooting a voodoo violet just like you & I was confused because I never shot a candy paint. But they said 8:1 mixing ratio so Your clear base is 4 parts The reducer 4 parts And voodoo violet “candy” 1 part. Good luck 🍀

[@samuelfrodge4988]

Intercoat and reducer wouldn't you need activator?

[@user-un5my5bw4j]

No, it's just an intercoat binder, which is base paint that is clear. It's not like 2k top clear that you use a hardener with to cure as a hard top coat. You must though use a top clear over top of your candy midcoat as always. Some people do (which they shouldn't) mix candy concentrate with top 2k clear but it will fade out from uv rays pretty quick. Should always mix candy as a midcoat with base clear, spray over your metallic base, then top clear

[@zahirkelloud4892]

I was about to close the video at 7:00. I thought I was never gonna see you mix.

[@LiquidConceptsUSA]

Glad you got to see it :)

[@madroadrunner69]

Is this base coat or in the clear coat

[@samuelfrodge4988]

This goes in intercoat clear. It's a clear base. Some concentrates can go In a clear
