Re: marble paint

You mean a marble EFFECT. Say you want gray marble. You spray a coat of light gray. Let it dry. Than spray dark gray and while its wet put saran rap on it. Peel it off after your dab it on, and let it dry. Should be marbly.

Re: marble paint

I know how to paint marble. tools needed are primer, base coat paint(your choice Silver or gold) and transparent candy paint and clear coat. First you primer the parts and make sure all the body work is done. Second you spray the parts with the base coat. Once the base coat is dry. you spray black on the parts. Wrap the parts in saran wrap and the peel off and let dry. repeat until you achieve the desired look. Wet sand the parts with really fine sand paper. Once the roughness is smoothened enough. It's time to spray the transparent candy color. Scuff the paint with a scotch brite pad and then shoot the clear coat.

Re: marble paint

if you have any questions about the paint job contact me. I also know how to paint multi-patterned paint jobs underneath or on top of candy. It will look professional.
Remember to take your time.
