Testing Color Changing Paint

On droid number 2 I wanted to do something a little different so I am testing the color changing paint from Rust-Oleum. I grabbed some small aluminum sheets from the local hardware store and gave it a go. I tried the Blue - Purple and the Green - Red. I also tried them on various types of backing to see how well it would coat and if high gloss or flat would work best.

I did not wait long enough for the blue to dry before I flipped it over so it has a bit of dirt on it, it really looked better before I screwed that part up. I have decided to go with the Green - Red blend as I really liked the look of the primary green color and the red was really subtle and that looked nice.

Here is the Blue - Purple



Here is the green. It was a bit hard to have the camera pick up the transition to red but in person I really liked the effect.
