Wrinkle Plus, Flat Black

I just got a can yesterday and I love it. Full disclosure, I'm not using it for engine parts or per the manufacturer instructions. I'm making a prop replica of a raygun (long story) and wanted a very specific finish. If you're looking for that look on plastic then this couldn't be easier. It looks just like old mid century military bake on paint like was used on ships and helecopters, ect also found on old metal cameras a lot for some reason. Best method I found was to apply heavy coats waiting 5 minutes in-between (like they say on the can) but then imediatly drying them with a hair dryer until they wrinkle. It's very fast and provided excellent results. It came out super even and looks just like what I wanted. Like a professional did it. I'm not sure if it's as durable as the manufacturer stated method but it seems to be pretty tough. So if anyone is interested, yes, this works on plastic beautifully and will have many purposes beyond engine paint. I could see this working for model war ships, airplanes, guns, you name it. If you're a maker or model builder I can't recommend this highly enough. Everyone who's seen it so far has been gaga for it. Plus, once you dry it to a wrinkle it's dry, no rediculously long waits. Just thought I'd mention. Thank you VHT. I know it's not what you intended for your product but regardless you now have a repeat customer for life.

Outstanding quality Wrinkle spray paint.

This stuff is awesome! However 2 things to consider 1. How many parts you are spraying cause this stuff doesn't seem to have a lot of paint in the can if you spray it how they recommend (which I do suggest laying it thick as the can says) 2. Def want to bake it in an oven for curing it. I baked it in the house and it def stunk it up not terrible on my opinion but you wouldn't want your kids breathing it in so make sure u can keep the windows open to air the house out. Easy to get rid of the smell. Also I found it very forgiving in laying it on thick meaning it doesn't run/drip easily from what I experienced. Def spray it thick and criss cross pattern as this will allow you to get the best texture possible. It's really sharp looking. Not sure how durable it actually is but seems fairly nice. I wouldn't go dropping it on the ground but seems legit. Color is also more of a flat blue vs shiny which I liked a lot!

This paint was easy to apply and easy to achieve the retro look I desired. The directions are specific, you must read them. It requires a couple coats with a short 5 minute "flash off" dry time between. It was easy to achieve a moderately heavy coat without sags and runs, but, if you have little experience with spray paint, its a good idea to practice before tackling your precious project. A first timer will always have trouble with runs and sags. The nozzle gave me more control than the average rattle can. I give this product a thumbs up. The directions don't really cover oven curing for metal parts. I have plenty of on the job finishing experience so I used our oven to speed up the wrinkling and curing process. Open windows fans help with the paint smell, there will be some paint odor needless to say. After the freshly applied paint coat has air dried (minimum of 30 minutes), This allows the paint solvents to off-gas safely. Its ok for the paint to begin to wrinkle. Then I bake it in the oven at 150 degrees F. for approximately 45 minutes. Since it is a kitchen oven with little venting, I open the oven door briefly every 10 minutes to let remaining gasses escape. Turn the oven off to cool, do not remove the part while still hot. At this point the painted part is cured and durable enough for handling and assembly. Without oven curing you should give the finished part 24 hours before handling. Most plastic parts can't tolerate heat without warping etc.

This is the best wrinkle finish paint I've ever used. But be advised, this stuff takes FOREVER to gas off. The item I painted almost a week ago is still sitting outside, and still very fragrant. I hope to bring it inside one of these days.

Works great

Really good paint only issue I had was my fault I over sprayed and have over hang wrinkle but I was able to shave down the long wrinkles to keep it smooth.

Have used a bunch of wrinkle paint through my years and this is hands down the best . I have used other ones and they always seem to become uneven in the texture, but with his … nope never not even once .great product
