Wicked Fluorescents

[Chris g]

Hi all,

I want to have a go at some pop art type illustrations on board and also on T shirts.

I've been looking at the wicked fluorescent range, I normally use wicked detail paint, but as I've never used them I thought I'd ask for some advice.

- Are there any problems with reducing the fluo colours ?

- I don't want the UV effect so I'm assuming if I don't use the UV base there won't be any.

- Could I just use a createx clear base, ( I have some), or do I need to use a white base to get the hot colours? (I see that the colours 'look' different on the createx website for white or black base)

OK I may be over-complicating this and got it completely wrong but I can't seem to find much info about using the paints so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

You would want a white base if you were painting on dark shirts regardless.

No problems reducing any wicked paint flouro or not.

Flourescents are not very colorfast, not a big problem but they will fade.

Nada, thanks I'll get some white base and give it a go.
