DuraTrax Candy Purple Lexan Spray Paint (4.5oz)
This is a 4.5oz spray can of Duratrax Paint in Candy Purple for Polycarbonate (Lexan) RC Vehicle Bodies.
NOTE: It is very important to spray thin, even coats to avoid runs or heavy build up. Be careful not to apply paint too thick, use too many coats, or not allow paint to fully cure between coats. Any more than three coats of paint will start to cause issues with the color and result in a slight yellowish gold appearance.

DuraTrax Candy Purple Lexan Spray Paint (4.5oz)
This is one of my favorite colors! As others have said this pain goes on very thin. It will require several coats and to be backed by another color. I spray 3-4 coats of purple then follow with a silver and that will make the purple pop and look great.

DuraTrax Candy Purple Lexan Spray Paint (4.5oz)
This paint has almost no pigment to it and is super thin. Not a candy purple you see on real cars. It is extremely transparent. Backing does not help much. Takes several coats to get any sort of color. Been painting rc bodies for over 20 years. Duratrax paints are pretty good but this is the worst color I have used of any paint.

DuraTrax Candy Purple Lexan Spray Paint (4.5oz)
Have tried a few test bits of lexan body and I've got to call this as the thinnest paint I've used. The can warns not to apply more than 3 coats but it just doesn't have enough color in it at 3 coats. After 8 coats it was darker but adding the black backer turned the parts black with purple tint. Trying a white backer was better but then had a transparency and made the purple too bright for the "candy" look seen on hot rods.
