I just got some black lava in yesterday. I was reading the description online and it didn't say.........should I use a base coat of anything? Thanks...........Jeff

Re: Black Lava

Nope, no base coat needed, though it does need clear.

Re: Black Lava

need?!

I have done several parts w/o a clear on the lava, though it does say in the description for added durability use a clear. It shoots really nicely for me and the color is great, really rich. It is 1 of my favorite colors for sure.

Re: Black Lava

Adding a clear makes the metallic really stand out and gives it nice gloss. I would recommend clearing.

Re: Black Lava

I clear almost everything anymore...........even candies.........just habit. I've grown REAL attached to acrylic clear.............

Re: Black Lava

I finally got around to shooting black lava last weekend. Came out real nice. But the way my luck usually runs...........NO SUN since I shot it, so all I got so far is inside pics..................2 coats of acrylic clear over the top..........I do believe I have a new favorite colors...............
