Flake Overview
Flakes can be added to any Shimrin® Universal Base, Kandy, Clear, or Kustom Base. House of Kolor® (H.O.K.) flakes are available in four different grain sizes and are manufactured from ultra‑thin polyester, making them some of the lightest and easiest flakes to apply.
The Mini and Ultra Mini flakes deliver the brilliance of much larger flakes while maintaining excellent sprayability and reduced surface texture—offering the perfect balance between visual impact and ease of use.
