Permalac's effectiveness as a direct to metal clear is well
established. Recently we have been getting more interest from our customers who
want Permalac's adhesion and corrosion resistance with color. I wanted to see
how effective Permalac could be when carrying color and would it cover color.
These aluminum snack bowls where one of the tests I came up with. Originally
they had a mirror finish, but some goofball
(me) put them in the dishwasher. That wrecked them, but since they were already
ruined I could do with them as I pleased. I decided to go for this enamel look.
I sprayed on a layer of the base color, led it set up for a few minutes, and
then airbrushed on the secondary colors. Then three coats of Satin/Gloss
Permalac and it was finished.
Currently we are still testing the colors you see here. When
they're ready, we'll post it here.
