Hey Tyler I had asked this in the thread on the "other place" you posted, did you do the fade with the two colors at once then cure or did you cure one color then put on the second one?

Thanks

I didn't see anything about that @ Eastwood. anyhoo, I put a chrome base coat on & fully cured. then I put the black chrome on & let it bake for about 5 mins. after flow then pulled it out, let cool to around 100 deg. & sprayed the red then placed in the oven for a full cure. candies perform better if you cure them @ lower temps. for longer. if they hit the oven & the temp. is too high you get runs & sags.
