Tinted/coloured clearcoat

[MagicalTrevor]

I'm looking for some advice on colouring clearcoat. I'd like to be able to spray a panel with a clearcoat that produces a 30-40% transparency.

Is it possible to get this level of transparency?
Is it reproducible I.e. Spraying another panel to match
I've seen various 'concentrates' for clearcoat but is this available in a pre-prepared spray can?

Thanks guys

Hmm, maybe I was being a tad optimistic!



I suspect the band you talk about would be more noticeable with carbon fibre

Maybe I might be better tinting the resin before making the part. I think there are pigments for that but the colour choices are more limited I.e. I'd have to mix the colour to have other choices

I think I've discovered why this isn't often done
