Anything but humid tbh. Temp doesn't matter as long as it's not really hot.

Do a test spray on something first with the metalizer it will turn the gold more of a yellow color. I had the shop that did mine (friend) do a test spray and they did half just vintage gold and then the other half with metalizer and it turned it to yellow for my taste. so I would play around with it before you do the final spray. I know you can peal it off if you don't like it but why waste all that time for something you might not like. |

I agree somewhat. If the cans get TOO cold the spray will come out chunky. I noticed this just a few days ago with the red. It was fine until the cans got too cold. Put them inside to warm up a lil bit and started to spray fine again lol |

I just did my RPF's a black cherry with the red metalizer. Came out more of a red/purple. I like em but I think I'll go the Vintage gold route and try some copper metalizer and see what happens. I'll try it on one wheel and see how it comes out

Thanks for the advice! Will do that... Looking at that thread I linked, they look pretty good... Wasn't going to go with the 4 coats of the gold metalizer like he did... Thinking two coats over the vintage gold... But of course it is alway impossible to tell from just pics on the internet... Guess it goes without saying I am going for that STI Limited Ed BBS gold!
