Well,,,I ordered that activator to help my silver crinkle to act right,,,but I did t know how much to use say per 1 oz of powder ,,,so I added a small teaspoon and it did nothing,,mi added another, nothing, ,mi must have contaminated my crinkle paint by adding clear to it or something, ,it doesn’t do anything but turn grayish black,,,anybody know what’s happening here?
Sorry. I am having issues as well.
I bought the additive to help but unfortunately it does the,l you how much to use per ounce of powdercoat,,,,,,,I’m thinking it’s just a batch of bad crincklecoat or I mixed something with it 8 should t have
If you bought the crinkle paint it should crinkle without any additional crinkle additives. The crinkle agent is for other colors to supposedly make them crinkle is how I understand it. If you’ve done like JUNGLEJIM has explained and it’s not crinkling I’m guessing it’s bad and you will need a new one. I would also try contacting the seller in Ukraine and seeing if he has amount needed to add to colors for the crinkle agent.
1 part paint 1 part additive. Most definitely JUNGLEJIM is the guy 2 ask.
Maybe too much additive or not a good batch. I split mine with Micanopy and he's having issues so I don't know what's going on. Will take a few pictures when I add some to a light pink I'm wanting to make to show what I do.
This shade of pink was already mixed, just adding the wrinkle agent additive. I put 3 blade fulls in the jar and shake the s**t out of it. Done. Will use it shortly and see how it turns out.Attachment 428278Attachment 428279Attachment 428280Attachment 428281
Want to see how it comes out Jim,,,,
I tried mine with purple plus a small bit of additive and nothing,,,,I baked as you said and mine didn’t wrinkle again,,,,,
Perhaps you need to use a different sized screwdriver.

Yea,, I actually tried a teaspoon of the activator with the silver crinkle,,,,cooked it nearly 25 minutes and it still wouldn’t crackle,,,,I reordered some crinkle paint,,,,maybe next batch will be better ,,,,
Send me a little of the additive and I'll mix a couple colors to see how it works. I've been mixing my colors using Rosies clear high gloss, wrinkle agent additive, some Pearl ex pigments and Pro-Tec powder paint. Some colors I add UV Blast if I want the paint colors brighter.
Hummmm,,,I forgot that it works with any paints,,,I only tried it with chart under silver crinkle,,,,I need to try it with just chartruce,,,,I can’t imagine how it would work in my head
I think I have a bad batch of silver crinkle so I reordered more
There is a very fine line between just the right amount and then too much crinkle paint. Too much and won’t tear apart. Seems simple as that but then can be a challenge to pull off. Can have a lot of wasted jigs trying to get the right amount. I bought all colors of crinkle paint a year ago with high hopes. Looks really cool at 1st but then after awhile meh. I haven’t used it in forever now and have no plans to. Sticking with the basics over here.
Originally, I bought all four colors of the crinkle paint but only the silver had the movement I wanted so I quit using the other three colors. Then I tried the wrinkle agent additive and had success with it so started adding it to more colors including the copper crinkle and it's one of my favorite colors now. No longer dipping in the crinkle powder but brush tapping it on last seems the best for me.
So Jim,,,,when doing a paint with the additive, do you have to use a covering of crinkle paint like silver or copper or can you use crinkle with say just 1 color like chart or blaze orange alone? Kinda of confused here if you use a base color then crinkle paint color plus additive
You don't need the crinkle silver covering if paint is treated with the additive, I just like the silver/black color on top of the head. You can use 3 or 4 colors of paint treated with the additive on one jig. Base coat is usually white or chartreuse yellow treated with the additive, then brush tap other three colors on top, nose and bottom. Or dip into base color, then dip second color over the base color then brush tap one or two colors. I brush tap most of the paint focusing more paint on the nose of the jig so when I bake them with the heads pointed up gravity and heat take over.
Thank you Jim,,,your a great help
