House of Color paint
 
Say, I have a small painting project. I need to get some House of Color Kandies, but I need really small qualities of a couple of colors. I already have the thinners for the Shimrin KBC system. The base color will be a metalic silver-I'll need a bit more of that color, so I'll proably buy it locally. The Kandies (OK, so the KBC system is not a true Kandie) will be shades of red. Preferably a bright red and a second darker red. Does anybody have some that I could buy? I'm only need about a cup of the stuff and I really don't want to buy a whole quart.

If I remember correctly some of the airbrush supply companies sell HOC in very small quantities. Do a search or grab yourself a airbrush magazine.

These guy's have it in 8 oz. quantities. I've order other stuff from them and had great luck. bearair

Thanks for the link!

Cord, Tell me exactly what you will need. I might be able to help

Cord 03-26-2003 10:33 AM

Geo-do you need paint codes? I have a binder-somewhere. I can look them up tonight. The problem is that the code would proably be too rigid. Really just need two shades of red. One that is real bright and one that is darker. Not too dark. They need to be of the KBC system. Let me know if you need the codes...

gotta love house of color. good luck with the project.

Cool link, thanks

Geo 100 03-26-2003 10:43 PM

Cord, give me any info and I'll see what I can do.

Cord 03-27-2003 09:20 AM

Ok, the base color is either BC-02 or FBC-02 Orion silver. They are both the same color, but the size of the flake varies. The base coat isn't critical, but if you have it, I'm shopping.

The Kandie coats are KBC-11 Apple Red or KBC-1 Brandywine and KBC-6 Burgundy. Either Apple Red or Brandywine are acceptable. I'd also need a really, really small quanity of KBC-19 Scarlet or KBC-20 Persimmon. Again, either color will do.

Your might want to call Mitchell T. He uses a lot of reds in the house off color. He is on this board sometimes.

Cord 03-27-2003 12:05 PM

Yea, I had thought of that. But I don't know Mitcher and he doesn't know me. I'll proably never be able to afford one of his paint jobs, so why should he do me any favors?

packinair 03-27-2003 01:04 PM

Cord 03-28-2003 10:35 AM

Scott-I spoke with Dave this morning. He thought he might have one or two of the reds. He was going to take a look over the weekend. I forgot to ask if you guys had the silver. If not, do you think I could use a rattle can enamel or laquer? The silver is the base and it will be cleared. I'm afraid the paints might be incompatable.

glassdave 03-29-2003 08:50 PM

Hi cord. . .i will have some time to dig those colors out tommorow (sunday). i think i may have all of em the red, burgandy, orange and the silver. you will need paint from the same system to be safe. . . no rattle cans . . .:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :p . . i'll see if i can find that pic of the headers too. . .its in an old box of hotrod mags i have
