Illusion series should only be applied directly over substrate. There should be NO base coat under an illusion series powder. Apply powders cold. No need to hot flock. Apply your first coat and then bring to flow-out + 2 minutes (aka Gel-out). In other words, in about 3-5 minutes approx. the base coat will turn from a powder into a liquid looking coating, once this happens, add 2 minutes to your timer. After that flow-out + 2, pull and allow to cool. Apply your top coat. In this case, applying clear vision you will again apply cold (room temp) cover the base coat in a white powder. Place into the oven and follow the cure schedule for the Clear Vision. Which happens to be 375 degree F for 18 minutes. That 18 minute timer should not start until the THICKEST portion of your substrate reaches 375 degrees F. The curing of the clear coat will pull the underlying pigments to the surface giving you a brilliant color that you are looking for. Each coating should be around 3 mil thick. That is .003" thousandths of an inch not millimeter. There is a great video on our website for applying Illusion Malbec.
