Default color map of the Spaz Stix ?

Does anyone know if there is a color map of the Spaz Stix different colors

next to the test pieces to see these colors?

Are there any major difference between Spaz Stix and Faskolor? No difference to paint with? more than that Spaz Stix a gap more?

Color samples don't tell the Spaz story. Many of their products produce special effects that photos won't show. Like the Hard Ano Metal products, when backed with chrome, produce an amazing candy finsih that is very cool.

Being lacquers, they spray and handle much differently than waterbases like FasKolor. They thin with lacquer thinner, when needed, but most of their products ar3e ready to spray and are very thin viscosity right from the bottles. This makes them perfect for fine detail work, as they spray like colored dyes, more than paints.

Clean up is with lacquer thinner.

You can mix lacquers and waterbaseds on the same body. Complete drying/curing is a must. Lacquers tend to lift and wrinkle WB's if they aren't fully cured, or if the WB coat is too thick, even if fully dry.

Spaz from the bottles seems to be less agressive than Spaz from the rattle cans...no extra solvents in the bottles, I presume.

Sometimes rattle can lacquers "heal-over" the cuts in liquid masking, making for a real time consuming repair.

I have not experienced this problem when using Spaz, Pactra, or Alclad lacquers from the bottles.
