❶ Mixing medium: Low-temperature varnish
❷ Tools: Top pot gun (nozzle size:1.0)
❸ Dosage and layers:10g varnish + 5g Glow in the dark Pigment, 3 coats
Problem: Sagging phenomenon
Analysis of the reasons and recommendations:
❶ The Glow in the dark Pigment has a high specific gravity, so attention should be paid to adjusting the viscosity of the varnish. Low temperature varnish is thin, it is recommended to increase the viscosity a bit.
❷ Glow in the dark paint 3 coats may be a bit thick, suggest reducing to 1-2 coats.
❸ When spraying, wait until the first coat is almost dry before spraying a second coat to avoid aggregation.
❹ This convexity on the surface of the cup may also aggravate the sagging, the liquid from the protruding part being left in the grooves, which might have been better if the cup had been painted flat.
