Why are high-temp Almond and Sand more difficult to work with than darker high temperature colors?
Almond (6283) and Sand (6307) are light, flat colors which have more pigment than darker colors because they are frequently applied over black. It is important to achieve a uniform mix of components with these two colors because of the higher levels of pigmentation. If they are not thoroughly mixed by vigorous shaking for at least two minutes (a mechanical paint shaker is the best), they are likely to fail when subjected to high temperatures. They also require more particular attention in application than the darker colors. For a more thorough explanation, please see the Application Techniques section of our User Guide.
