Well, there are pearlescent paints you can purchased in the rattle can that are already mixed. Or if you have a solid base color, there is a clear with pearls in it.

You have the paints already? what system are you using? Airbrush or rattle can?

For an airbrush, spray your base color-solid down 1st. Then, the pearl stage. Then clear. If you have those 3 stage paints.

If it is a rattle spray can, uh..Spray it like you would any other paint job.

Good luck.

Really? Do you know any brand who do this stuff? Because when I look at duplicolor paint, there is not pearlescents paints :-(

I know that duplicolor made a color shift paint that works fine, the results are very good!

The model company paint. Testors(yuck), Tamiya(really good), and my fav, Gunze Snagyo-GSI Creos.
