Default RE: candy paint?

Hello;
Using a candy paint is hard to apply.I have been informed by a couple of guys that there should be a base coat,(silver metallic) after that your looking at 5-6 coats of the candy.It might not show the silver metallic until you clear coat it.The more depth you have the better the results.I am getting ready to paint one of my hulls,and the base is silver metallic,then the racing green candy paint.Will also apply 5-6 coats and then clear coat with a two part clear.There is a company on line called;TCP global. Check there sight and you can get more info along with directions on how to use the candy colors.Once I get mine done I shall post it. All the best
