Fern 13 Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 I've been painting painting with powders recently and have played around with different top coats that were recommended to me the last time I posted. The top coat I used on these leave a matte finish but I love how thin it goes on without loosing any texture. I am not a big fan of waiting over night for the finish to dry off and even when it does, it is kind of sticky to the touch for a few days after. Anyone have any top coats that go on this and leave a glossy shine? any top coats that really bring out and maybe even up the saturation of the colors? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glideb8 16 Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 What kind of to coat are you using for these? A lot of people just use really thin, clear plastisol(like Clearasol) to coat anything like this. For myself, I'd rather brush the inside of the mold with the mica powders before injecting or pouring. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
