It takes a talented painter with good to excellent gun control to apply some of HOK Products . Plus a knowledge of how Tri-Stages are sprayed .
you usually dont spray HOK like conventional Automotive Paint . As in Kandies they are Translucent and each coat gets darker with every coat , overlaps are important to achieve a flawless finish , meaning no tiger stripes , no blotchiness , Plus the base under color ( like silver , Gold , Black Pearl , White Pearl , mostly used ) need to be applied flawlessly as the Kandy top coat will only magnify these flaws .
Small dirt particles in the base will look like black specks under some Kandy colors .
These are custom paints and require many hours in the booth to get correct .

Why do you think some of those beautiful kandy paint jobs on some of those low riders and street rods cost upwards of 25K-to 50K .
