Question Important questions

Couple things i need answered.

First off, pearl powder= such thing? do you mix it into the clear cote? where can i get it and whut company makes it?

Second, the large needle that comes in my airbrushe set, does it make it spary finer? will it look better if i use that for painting or does the small, or medium look the best?

Pearl powder: There're too many brands to list. Art supply store usually carry it. You can mix it with a solid or clear color, or mix with clear coat.

Large needle usually make the spray wider. Large nozzle give you wider and uniform application, and suited to body painting.

I've noticed there're different colors of pearl powders as well. Which kind do you use in each situation? For example, if I wanted a light blue paint coat, should I use the standard white pearl powder, or the light blue type? Does it really matter?
