CANDY COATS Meaning and
Definition
-
Candy coats, also known as candy-colored coats or candy-colored finishes, refer to a decorative coating or finish that gives an object or surface a vibrant, glossy, and translucent appearance, similar to the appearance of candies or sweets. The term is commonly used in the context of custom painting and automotive customization, but can also be applied to other areas of design and art.
Typically, candy coats are achieved through a multi-layer process. First, a base coat is applied in a solid color, usually a metallic or pearl color. Then, several layers of transparent, tinted clear coat are added on top of the base coat. These tinted layers create depth and richness, resulting in a vibrant, eye-catching candy-like finish. The use of specialized pigments or dyes in the clear coat contributes to the translucency and shimmering effect.
Candy coats are highly popular in the custom car and motorcycle industries, where they are often used to provide a flashy and customized look. However, candy coats can also be seen in various other applications, such as furniture, clothing, accessories, or even in graphic design. The term "candy coat" itself emphasizes the visual similarity between the coated object and the colorful appearance of candies, adding a sense of sweetness and fun to the finished product.
