Making a crystal effect solution.

[cammy9r]

hi, I'm sure the ammonium nitrate will work it just seems to have a lesser amount of nitrogen, just as long as it has no other ingredients and kind of looks like small clearish white granules. I tried a few things before i could get the urea but nothing worked well if at all.
As for paint i use standard solvent based auto paint, mixed and sprayed through a gun and spray [rattle] cans of celly or acrylic. It will take a lot of spray can clear in many coats to build enough to cover the tactlie finish of the crystal efect.
I wouldn't use water based paints for the contrast coat [usually the black coat] as it will most likely wash off with the crystal stuff.

Mate you are the SHIT ...Top work mate Top work AAA+++

does this stuff need to be done with 2pack or will acrylics work ok? Ive never used 2pack before

The solution is just a "mask". It doesn't usually react with anything (as long as it's not a water based paint). The thicker your top "contrast coat" is, the harder you need to work to get it off. I've used acrylic with no problems (inc. rattle cans).

Good Luck 8^).
