Yes , dry/ light medium wet . You will start to see effect after 3rd or so coat. You are building up a very fine powder.

White pearl is like one of the easiest colors to shoot on a boat. Youll also find that most of us painters are shooting a base color then icing a pearl over the top. Or mixing a candy pearl off our bank. I just finished a 38 topgun that is all white pearl. ill see if i can post the pic

You can see on spray out card that 4 passes of pearl will build the effect

on this particular color 12 passes give the correct look .


Some colors require more passes.
