Poppin’ Cherry Cande Base Coat
Poppin’ Cherry Cande Base Coat is a wild cherry Kandy basecoat that delivers bold, juicy color with superior coverage compared to traditional options like House of Kolor’s KBC03. Unlike KBC03’s 2:1 reduction ratio, our formula reduces at a true 1:1 ratio, giving you deeper saturation and more efficient application with less material waste.
This factory-packed base coat is created using our exclusive Poppin’ Cherry Cande concentrate blended with select pearls and our proprietary Cande Shop base coat maker. The result? A finish with extreme clarity, depth, and a candy-like appearance that turns heads in any light.
Whether you’re spraying a custom car, motorcycle, or anything in between, this base coat offers a vibrant, high-impact finish that’s easy to apply and consistent every time. If you’re craving more sparkle and dimension, check out Poppin’ Cherry Hard Cande for a more intense effect.

Too purple for my taste. I did a sprayout over white, grey and black. The black basecoat looks fine straight on, but from most angles, it looks like mud. I sprayed 2, 3 and 4 coat samples. It’s the same result for all. On the other basecoat colors, it’s fine from all angles.
In direct sunlight, the color looks purple. In lower light, it looks more red…somewhat like the color shown in the image above but not really the same.
