        Ben, that blue is just the regular blue in gallons. They dont make blaze blue in gallons just yet.

                Blaze blue is darker then the regular blue for sure. That's also why we did the regualr blue originally on Patryks wheels.

                          Thats sick Ben! Mind sharing some of your tips with the rest of us? What sprayer did you use? What thinner did you use and thinning ratio? How many coats?

                            the right thin ratio is key I saw a matte black dipped mazda 3 Friday that looked like it was pure plasti as it had no shine at all to it

                                I actually just ordered the kit from Dipyourcar, so its the Earlax 3500 sprayer, pre thinned, I will be playing around on thinning it out on my own for some other projects, but for now this was the color i wanted and turned out great! I know there is about 5 coats on there, maybe 6? lost count haha
