Spaz Stix Multi-Color Change Spray Paint (Holographic) (3.5oz)
About this part
Spaz Stix Holographic Color Change paint is a translucent color that, when applied correctly, will produce eye-popping results. Always apply a fine mist of Spaz Stix Surface Pre-Prep (SZX90059) to the surface you are working on before using the Color Change paint. This helps eliminate fingerprints and undesirable swirls in your paint job. Color Change paints spray out very clear, and will require several light coats to achieve best results. At this point, the color will be very faint. After achieving an even finish with the Color Change paint, you MUST apply Spaz Stix High Gloss Black/Backer (SZX00119), which will make your color "pop".

Bought at my LHS, but felt like putting the word out. This paint sucks. Put this on with a blue backer and it looks fine. One can of metallic blue would save money and look better. I have painted a ton of bodies with Tamiya spray can paint and never had this issue with flaked cracked paint. Sure can is bigger, but not even sure there is really that much more paint in the can compared to Tamiya. Nozzles also load up which makes me think less less content/pressure. Never again Spastix, no thanks. Tamiya painted bodies still rocking steady after many years and piles of race carnage.
I followed the instructions, however, after layering several light coats, I thought I was done and backed it with the recommended gloss black. Now I have a black buggy body with holographic sparkles that can really only be seen in sunlight. 3/5. I repaired the front end of my niece's atv and decided to dress the front up with some holographic flames to obfuscate the repair work. So, I used the same process I did on my buggy body but reversed the order with the paint I had left. Looks "meh" in the garage but as soon as sunlight hits it, epic. Her jaw dropped. Big hug for uncle. 5/5 Maybe I just needed a few more coats on the buggy body.
I used 2 cans on a 1/10 short course body, followed by 2 cans of the black Spaz Stix backer. Some flake shows through faintly in direct sunlight. However there is no holographic effect and the body looks like it was painted black. I wasted 30 dollars and several hours worth of time to essentially double the weight of the body.
first off this crap is clear you have to buy a color to put behind it for it to even work (black) which it says on the back of the can. Great job AMain for letting us know that in the description. Christmas coming up and my wife's surprise from my 6 year old is now ruined by this crap.
Four reviews of the Spaz Stix Multi-Color Change Spray Paint (Holographic, 3.5oz) are all negative or mixed. Reviewers note that the paint is effectively clear and needs a dark backer, usually black, to show the holographic effect, and that the effect is mostly visible only in direct sunlight. One reviewer reported faint flaking, and another said a nozzle clogged and the can held less paint than expected. One reviewer, who gave 4/5, was satisfied with the look after backing it with black and applying more coats. Reviewers did not all agree on the overall value, and the sample is small.
