A few people have been asking about how to do this so I figured a tutorial would be helpful to explain it. The starting point will be Revell's 60' Impala kit and it will be getting a candy orange and red pattern on the roof. Materials used: Tamiya tape cut into narrow strips Kustom Shop Kandy Red, Kandy Orange, Lava Red Pearl, and Brilliant Silver Metallic Wadded up rubber glove for the textured sections Nason Select Clear 2K Urethane Here the body has been base coated with pearl white and the roof masked off in preparation for the silver base that will be used for the candy. Now spray the roof with a silver or gold base of your choice. (I used Brilliant Silver Metallic from Kustom Shop) Once that dries you can start the taping process. Start by finding the center line and then lay out a design. I prefer to start in the middle and work my way to the outer edges.

Here are a couple more kandy pattern jobs that I have been messing with. First is a AMT Prestige 63 Impala. This car was a quick job. About 24 hours from bare plastic to paint done, ready for foil and clear. It is kandy HOK Root Beer brown. The next one is a 37 Chevy Master Deluxe resin body. It is all HOK kandy apple red with red nail polish for the body color.
