Rust-Oleum Color Shift Pink Champagne Spray Paint

I am totally delighted with the color shift paint. I used it as recommended over the top of black and it looks purple from one angle aqua from another. Just for fun I tried it over a chicken that had other base colors. I love the way that turned out. It gave the entire piece a sparkly aqua sheen that changes in the sunlight. Taking a chance paid off. FYI I used it very lightly with multiple coats.

I used it to spray paint an outdoor garden piece. It sprayed on evenly and turned out really well. I love the color and recommend. Wish I had more items to paint with it.

Awesome paint. Color changing is amazing

We really like the effect of this paint. It’s important to note that the instructions clearly state to use in a black background. I did not read the instructions and was confused when the paint sprayed a clear color on my white butterfly.

I live to weld & paint metal pieces in my yard. These paints are great & the effects fun to see. However, despite multiple coats, cure time & sealants, rust still occurs…even on brand new metals. I don’t think anything really prevents rust…

Tl;dr - Do your prep work, follow the instructions, and be proud of your results! Read on for my full review including supplies and tips. My oldest has been riding an adult-sized bicycle since she was maybe 8- or 9-years-old. It’s the same bike she’s still been riding now at 16, though it’s been looking pretty worse-for-wear these days. I couldn’t see buying a new one, since she liked hers just fine and it still worked well. So we spent the money restoring it instead. She chose this paint in the Green-Copper finish. It looks AMAZING! We paid about $22 for two cans of this paint, and about $50 for the primer, clear enamel, and the sandpaper - a good value opposed to a new bicycle, thus also saving a perfectly good item from the junkyard. I can’t speak to the durability yet, but we sprayed over this color-shift paint with several light coats (about three full coats) of clear enamel to protect it and then let the full finish cure for a week before reassembling the bike. I hope that preserves the finish for some time. Here’s what we used for her 26” cruiser-style bike which included the frame, fork, fenders, and chain guard (all products purchased on Amazon): - 3M Wetordry 600-grit automotive sandpaper - 2 cans Rust-OleumPainter’s Touch 2X Ultra Cover Flat Black Primer - 2 cans Rust-Oleum Color Shift Paint in Green-Copper (this product) - 2 cans Rust-Oleum Crystal Clear Enamel Other items we used: razor blade scraper for decal removal, painter’s tape, N95 respirator masks, and vented safety goggles. Tips for success: - Even though we worked outside, this paint seemed like it had particularly strong fumes, so we still wore goggles and masks. - Do a good job on your prep work - scraping and sanding until very smooth; very nearly or down to the metal before priming, and definitely use two coats of flat black primer. The multi-faceted finish of this color-shift paint brings out any boo-boos you make. There were a few spots we noticed afterward that we wished we’d paid a little more attention to. That said, they were barely noticeable unless you looked really closely. We’re perfectionists, for perspective. - Though we used just over a can of primer for two coats, and about a can-and-a-half of clear enamel for 3 coats, we used the entirety of both cans of this specialty paint and it just *barely* covered the frame to our satisfaction - about two light coats. In the future, I would err on the safe side and buy a third can. - This paint is very thin and runny. Follow the directions and paint about 14”-16” inches away from your project or it runs and drips leaving streaky results in the paint job. - Shake the can THOROUGHLY before starting, and shake nearly CONTINUOUSLY between sprays, otherwise the glittery particles can obstruct the nozzle, leading to chunky droplets and drips in your paint job. If you’re curious, the cream-walled brown tires, the brown wire baskets (both front and rear), grips, seat, cup/phone holder, and triangular frame bag were all purchased through Amazon as well.

This is fairly good stuff, but as with most specialty rattlecans, overpriced. It doesn't seem to shift multiple colors like some of the other colors by the same manufacturer, the paint color is clear with pink glitter floating in it and an interference(at different angles it creates a pinkish reflection) red additive. Don't go by the cap color. As part of the color shift family, it's an acceptable member, though. I've used almost a whole can on different art projects and the spray tip hasn't clogged once. The spray pattern is conical or spot pattern and the can pressure is fairly high, so go easy on it to avoid runs and drips. Would buy again, decent effect but with a limited color range.

Clear glitter color shift. shows up best under black matte or flat paint. Didn’t realize this was a topcoat and had to make an emergency trip to Home Depot for black spray paint! Dried very fast
