I never knew something like this even exists I was blown away from the silver part 😁 So amazing Sir 🤍
Very cool - didn't know stuff like this existed
Awesomeness 👌 👏 👍

Hi , after the crystals have formed and then you put the second lack coat over them ,,, do you let the black dry before you scrub with the warm water pad ? thanks
Seen a couple of crystal vids,still amazed how good it looks. Can't wait if you do decided to put art work over it 👍👍

Can I create the same/similar effects with acrylic paints? (Because I have to paint indoors.) What are all my options for making cool effects but with water based materials?

Good job
What kind of basecoat paint is the silver and black? Not water based?
the black coat after crystal, should I wait until black coat fully dry or like nearly dry?
Very nice, good job. Can used Epoxy crystal or only mutant crystals?
This is supper cool and amazing but how can I get the materials and what are they?

New viewer. I'm guessing that monster of an air brush you used with the silver is the reason you use a shop compressor?
I intend to buy an airbrush gun. Which needle size is best for beginners?
What is the black paint you used, is it a water based or urethane paint?
Can you help us please: What are the ideal enviroinmental temperature and Humidity ? My Crystals dont seem to form big.
Can this effect be used on a water-based acrylic paint?
I have a gun stock I would like to do this process on and my question is can I use rattle can paint? so I don't have all that expensive paint laying around that I won't use and go to waste.
Can i use sleek instead of clear cot
Does this stuff have a shelf life? Used this 6 years ago, and just found half a bottle left over….might give it another go. 👍
Thank you Airbrush Asylum for the wicked tutorial as always! I know this is sponsored, and the idea is to push a product. BUT, I want to just share that this can be reproduced at an albeit shittier quality. Water Urea ammonia common liquid dish soap! Crystal Effect solution is as old as I can remember!
My car is silver can I just clear coat over the crystals. I just like the effect and don't want to do any color changes.
Can I do this over a regular wall? It would be perfect!
Hi, I'm having issues with my results, the crystals I get are much smaller than yours, what an I doing wrong?

How does this stuff take to masking?
What are your drying times in-between each step? Will this work with water based airbrush paint? My thought is when you wet the crystals with water to be scrubbed off, all the black paint would come off as well.

allow the part to cure 30 min at 20 c use a hair dryer on low to be sure its fully dry and use warm to hot water and use your hand to remove the mask effect

Yes you can mask a section and then crystallize, just make sure it’s a vinyl or fine line tape on the edge as otherwise it may deep through ? As you are applying the crystals heavily with a cloth 👍🏻

We havent tested on a canvas. Canvases are flexible so not sure if it's going to work. You could give it a go, it may have issues with adhesion. refer to TDS: dna-paints.com/wp-content/uploads/Mutant-CrystalZ-TDS-V1.5.pdf www.dna-paints.com/mutant-crystalz/
Do you think there would be a way to reduce the size of the crystals? I'd like to try this on some of my scale models 1/25 scale.

You can definitely play around with it by adjusting the level of crystalz applied, the direction of how you apply it, it all just comes down to experimentation.
only in Australia?
Would it be to much if it was flake then mutant crystals then black then candy?

Does the mutant crystal have to be applied with a rag as you did or can it be sprayed onto the surface and still achieve the same look?

You can spray products like this using spray bottles or those spray paint systems that employ a jar and your own paint with an aerosol can of propellant (cant remember the name, sorry). Brushes and rollers can be employed as well. All will give different results, and the technique, direction of movement, and application method all effect size and direction of crystal growth. It's important to experiment on multiple surfaces before applying to the final surface because even the topography of the surface your painting effects the crystals. For instance I was doing a job and the crystals emphasized the edge of a surface on one side but not the other and it ultimately looked disjointed. I opted to repaint. Sanding direction changes crystal direction growth immensely and can be used to manipulate how they grow. You can get interesting effects by wetting some areas before others, or by varying the volume applied in different areas. I often use an old hairspray bottle to apply these crystal products because it provides an even and very thin mist while still being easy to use and disposable and capable of wetting a relatively large area rapidly Note.... my experiences were with a similar product but a different brand. Best advice is to experiment. Get a bottle and waste it just playing around.

One additional note... if you attempt to spray, make sure you use a larger opening, not an airbrush, I wouldn't use anything smaller than 1.6

its all temp related, it can take hours, apply sparingly from a spray bottle less is better allow the effect to cure lightly coat it and let it dry
Can you flake it or would the flake cover the crystal affect 🤔

You could add a mini flake into an intercoat clear and try that or better yet do the flake first and then experiment with doing the crystal over that then candy 😉🤘🏻

I look forward to your prompt response you are the best thank you very much
