Turbo Dork paints are made of a mixture of pigments suspended in an acrylic medium plus additives that make them fast-drying, water-soluble when wet, and water-resistant when dry. The Metallics contain pigments and small mica flakes that create a sparkling effect on the paint surface making it look like metal. Formulated for airbrush use, but may also be hand brushed. Made with actual silver, Sparkle Motion will blind you with its brilliance. To get the most twinkle, use Sparkle Motion with a very dark undercoat.
