ChrisBcritter Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 I just did the carpet for the '65 Nova with embossing powder; I thought it might be a good idea to spray on some Dullcote to seal it and knock down the sparkle a bit. Do any of you seal the powder?
Belugawrx Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Nope unless you need it a different colour... cream to (Duplicolor) silver I suppose you could Dullcoat it, but just a mist, heavy paint makes it clump, a bit.
StevenGuthmiller Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 I never seal it. Sprinkle it on and forget it. Steve
ChrisBcritter Posted March 17, 2019 Author Posted March 17, 2019 Well, I went ahead and did it; used one light coat and it seemed to work as I hoped, sparkle toned down and no little bits coming loose as I took off the BMF I used to mask the console.
MrObsessive Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 At times yes............. I wanted to get rid of that "sparkle" as you described, so I painted over the powder with a semi gloss red paint (acrylic). Since this car had opening doors, the interior would be seen easier and I wanted that sparkly look to be knocked down a bit. For the Corvette I'm working on now, I used black embossing powder and I didn't do that...........a very small area that covers so it's not as noticeable.
