Colors takes its Airbrush Colors to the next level.
Createx Colors has
incorporated several product revisions to its popular line
of Airbrush Colors. The company has significantly improved
the color flow, color selection and overall performance.
The new colors feature an advanced suspension/thickening
system which allows the colors, when shaken, to thin out to
a very flowable consistency (this process is called
pseudo-plasticity). Once it is sprayed out onto the surface
the product sets up to sit slightly on top of the surface
requiring fewer coats to be applied while offering a
brighter color. Due to this revised consistency some air
pressure adjustments may need to be lowered (about 40-45 psi is usually sufficient) to compensate
for these flow advancements.
The new colors also contain several improvements in the area
of tip drying and fine lines. This will allow the artist to
spray a micro line without colors wicking or spreading. This
is especially important for the professional airbrush
artist. The airbrush artist will also notice how the colors
have a “softer” feel on the trigger with less air pressure.
Colors will respond better and have a silky flow. The older
formulation would often require frequent stops or jerky
trigger motions. This new product requires minimal effort to
achieve smooth unending lines. These modifications allow the
artist to “work” the needle less and improve overall user
satisfaction. This may require airbrush artists to make
some slight technique adjustments.
The other major change is in the Transparent Colors. These have been adjusted for improved color brightness and
pigment intensity. Some of the colors may appear lighter
than in the past, but the color, once applied to the surface
will outperform its previous counterpart. New specialty
pigments (concentrated colorants) have been utilized and
exciting new colors such as Canary Yellow, Maui Blue and
Purple have been added. Some old standards like Violet,
Caribbean Blue and Tropical Green have been dramatically
improved. In the Pearlized Color line exciting new
shades including Pearlized Tangerine, Pineapple, Lime Green
and Plum have been added.
Overall, the new color line is much brighter and is closer
to the actual bottled color when it is sprayed. The previous
color line formulation had a tendency to look very dark in
the bottles but dried to a much lighter shade. The new
colors maintain a closer look to the wet color without
losing any of the pigment concentration. This allows for
artists to have a better idea when choosing the color in the
bottle. In fact, the colors have a higher solid content than
ever before with superior color intensity and brightness.
