Marblizer

House of Kolor Marblizer for Custom Marble Effects

House of Kolor Marblizer is a specialist custom-paint effect designed to create finishes resembling marble, veined stone and irregular natural patterns. It is particularly suitable for projects where every finished surface is intended to have its own distinctive appearance.

Marblizer can be used on cars, motorcycles, helmets, individual panels and other custom projects according to the relevant House of Kolor coating system.

What Is the Marblizer Effect?

Marblizer is a specialist effect coating whose final pattern is created during application and manipulation of the surface. The result can resemble marble, veining or irregular natural textures.

Because the pattern is influenced by hand technique, no two finished surfaces need to look exactly the same, making it particularly suitable for unique custom projects.

Marble Effects for Cars & Motorcycles

Marblizer is particularly suitable for custom cars, motorcycles, fuel tanks, mudguards, helmets and show vehicles.

Depending on the coating system, it can be used on complete smaller panels, as part of graphics or in combination with other House of Kolor effects.

How the Ground Coat Affects Marblizer

The ground-coat colour has a major influence on the final Marblizer effect. The same product can create very different contrast, depth and visual character over light, dark or coloured bases.

For this reason, the ground colour and Marblizer effect should be planned together as part of the complete coating system.

Creating the Marble Pattern

One of the defining features of Marblizer is that the final effect is influenced not only by colour but also by the pattern-forming technique.

The required tools and method should follow the relevant House of Kolor process. Direction, pressure and repetition of the patterning technique can all have a major effect on the finished appearance.

Marblizer with Kandy Finishes

Marblizer can also provide a distinctive foundation for compatible Kandy or other translucent effect layers within suitable House of Kolor systems.

A translucent colour layer can add additional depth while changing the tone and visual character of the marble pattern beneath it.

Clear Coat Over Marblizer

A custom finish using Marblizer should be completed with a compatible clear coat according to the requirements of the full House of Kolor system.

The clear coat provides the specified final gloss, surface appearance and protection.

Create a Test Panel Before Painting

A test panel is strongly recommended before applying Marblizer to the final project. It allows you to experiment with the ground colour, patterning technique, optional Kandy layer and final clear coat.

This makes it possible to establish the required technique and coating sequence before working on the final surface.

Tips for Using House of Kolor Marblizer

• work on a clean and correctly prepared substrate,
• select the ground colour according to the desired marble effect,
• practise the patterning technique on a test panel first,
• use a consistent technique across larger surfaces,
• only combine it with Kandy or other effects in compatible systems,
• always follow the relevant House of Kolor technical data sheet.

When working with automotive paints and solvent-based materials, provide suitable ventilation and use the personal protective equipment specified in the relevant safety data sheet.
