DIY - Do It Yourself

To help our customers, we have gathered some great tips and advice to give a little insight into how we use Flake and Kandy on Nordic Flake. Note that the following tips are not the law and there is no right and wrong when it comes to custom painting, it's just your imagination that set the limit! This guide is evolving all the time and if you have any tips please email us and we will add them too.

No stress

Do not stress, tripping over and spilling stuff wont save you time. Slow is steady, steady is fast.

Know your equipment

Do not mix paint brands and make sure you read the product safety sheets. Ending up with a clear coat that never hardens out is fails you only want to hear about.

Start small

Test your idea on a skateboard deck or the toaster before spending a weekend in the paintbox creating something you will redo the next weekend.

Safety first

There is far many better ways to poison your body than filling your organs with solvent. Don't drink and drive then you can smoke and fly.

Have fun

Creating art should be fun. You will have struggle and dark times learning custom painting but in the end you will have a great time, trust us =)

Vad är Flake

Den flaken vi säljer är producerad av polyester och inte aluminiumspån som vissa flaker från 60-talet, detta för att polyesterpiggmenten har bättre ljusåtergivning och är tunnare och därför lättare att jobba med.
