Duplicolor Mirage paints

[Jantrix]

I've seen some of the Mirage paints used on models but never the 'Ice' shade. I've been sitting of this for a while and I think it's time to give it a try.

Has anyone used the 'Ice' Mirage paint? If so tell me about your experience and for Pete's sake some pics please!

I have used the "Ice" paint before. It comes with a black base coat, and the "Ice" coat is clear with rainbow specks in it. It is somewhat like Spectraflare paint, and can be painted over colors to give them a rainbow clear metalflake look. It is pretty neat, over silver it looks like this:

but over the black it comes with, it looks like this:

I painted a Nitrous Express bottle with it, and it was super easy to use. Plus you don't have to worry about color matching lol.

Adding it over colors makes them look similar to Chrome Illusion (or Chromealusion) paint too.
