I saw a great background idea and would like to get your thoughts on the best way to recreate it. It was a bright candy green over aluminum that was scuffed with a coarse flapper disc.
I was thinking about using AutoAir paints and a urethane clear coat, over an intercoat adhesion improver as a primer because I want the metal to show through. Any thoughts?
This would be for outdoor use.

Thanks

If it's for outdoor use ditch the AutoAir and go with an automotive candy. This way the clearcoat can crosslink with the candy and give a more durable result plus it's sure to last longer under UV.
