Description

.004 Acapulco Gold Metal Flake

.004 Acapulco Gold Metal Flake is a premium, USA-made, UV and solvent-resistant 24k gold metal flake that’s engineered for standout results. Unlike typical flakes on the market, this flake is precision cut from ultra-reflective foil and finished with a durable transparent coating—ensuring brilliance, durability, and long-lasting color.

At just .004” in size and 30% thinner than the competition, Acapulco Gold offers superior coverage while laying flatter in your application. This thinner design means it requires less clear coat to bury—saving you time, material, and money without sacrificing that rich, golden shimmer.

Built to handle high-heat environments up to 375°F without losing color or reflectivity, this flake is ideal for automotive paint, nail polish, powder coating, and more. Whether you’re in the custom paint game or experimenting with resin art, Acapulco Gold delivers consistent, fade-resistant color and unmatched visual depth.

FAQs

FAQs

Can you put metal flake in base coat?
You can, but it is not advised. If you're not using a .002" or .004" metal flake then you're going to create an issue where the base coat is very textured (orange peel). Since base coat is opaque (unable to see through), you're going to end up with metal flake that is hidden by the base coat. For maximum impact, it is best to spray metal flake over your base coat, before your clear.
Can you put metal flake in clear coat?
Yes you can. You just have to be more careful as you can run clear coat easier than you can run intercoat clear.
