ABOUT PRISMATIC POWDERS TRANSPARENT (CANDY) FINISH COLLECTION

Transparent powder coat finishes, often referred to as "candies" are translucent finishes that offer unparalleled color depth. Typically, Transparent powders are applied over a bright silver substrate (polished, chrome plating etc.) for reflectivity which is necessary for color depth. If the part being coated is not suitably reflective, then a chrome-like or metallic silver base coat can be applied prior to the Transparent top coat. Transparent powders are not quite as easy to spray as their Solid Tone counterparts. Varying coating thickness will return varying color depths. Mastering the Transparent powder coating spray technique requires closer attention to detail, but no other powder finish offers the level of depth that Transparents do.

Transparent powders are also one of the most versatile finishes because they can be used to create an infinite number of custom colors by applying them over various base coat colors. Prismatic Powders uses this concept in our Two Coat Kits.

Transparent powders are extremely popular on automotive wheels and other custom automotive parts, motorcycle parts, as well as bicycles and countless other applications.
