Turbo Dork is launching a new and updated paint line called Turbo Dork Remix to upgrade both their paint quality and displays!
From their Turboshifts to their Metallics, Turbo Dork has a massive catalog of paints to cover all of your varying color needs. After plenty of testing and feedback, they’ve decided that it’s time to relaunch their paint line with everything new from the ground up. Here is what they have in store for the Turbo Dork Remix line!
Turbo Dork Unveils New Upgraded Paint Line: Turbo Dork Remix
Turbo Dork Remix is the culmination of the last two years of collecting retailer and customer feedback at conventions and acting on those ideas. With that feedback we have gone back to school, consulted with chemists, brought in production engineers, and we are confident that these are some of the best, most colorful metallic acrylic paints on the market.
Remix represents a huge change for the better in almost every aspect of our paint line. As of today we are relaunching our paint line with all new 22ml bottles, an all new formula, and much requested counter top displays. Have no fear if you already use our pusher trays, those trays are adjustable and we will have instructions and conversion kits available to help you move those dividers around.
New Bottle Design
New Bottle Design
- Clear PET plastic shows off our paints better than ever.
- Nozzle tip clips into the bottle so it won’t pop off when squeezed.
- Flat nozzle tip keeps mixing ball from falling in and blocking it.
- New floating seal in the cap tightens down onto the nozzle to prevent dripping. When finished using the paint, push down while turning to reseal the cap using the floating seal.
- Full tamper proof ring on the cap. Push down and turn to break the ring and open. We have switched from a stainless steel mixing ball to a glass mixing ball. Our packaging is now fully recyclable.
- 22ml bottle means slightly higher $7 MSRP, but that is the same ratio pricing-wise ML per ML as before
New Turbo Dork Label
New Label
- Better instructions and clearly listed required undercoat color.
- Universal Color Language explanations of what the paint color or shift effect looks like. Great for customers who are color blind. AP beat us to the punch on this, but honestly every manufacturer should be doing this.
- Batch code stamping.
- Retail Rack Slot Location.
New Paint Formula
Their paints also have a new formula to go with the new labels, and bottles:
- We have doubled the pigment in more than half of our line.
- Much better hand brush feel and better coverage in less coats. This also extends to airbrushing, in most cases you only need two coats now.
- The 72 returning colors match their Turbo Dork 1.0 colors. Redrum is still Redrum, Blue Raspberry is still Blue Raspberry!
- Paints can be frozen and thawed 4 full times before having a catalyzation issue. Slightly shorter drying time.
New Racking
New Racking
To accommodate the new wider 22ml bottles, you will need to make some adjustments to your pusher trays. Each tray now holds 8 colors across vs the original 10. This means that if you had all 8 of our pusher tray expansions before, you will need a conversion kit as listed below to bring you up to 10 trays. These conversion kits include instructions on how to move the dividers around on your current trays to make them fit 8 bottles.
New Colors
We also have 8 new colors coming out with Turbo Dork Remix to take the place of the handful of colors discontinued over the years.
- Dark Ritual is a spiritual successor to Murple and updates it into a wonderful weird purple TurboShift with a yellow edge tone.
- Dream On is a more active version of our recently discontinued Sweet Dreams.
- Fahrenheit is our brightest red/orange yet and works great as a highlight to Redrum or Multipass.
- Leviathan and Peacock were designed as sort of ying/yang shifts and shift in
opposite of each other. - Midnight City is a purple to blue ZeniShift.
- Red Queen is a darker version of Redrum intended to act as a base for our reds and oranges.
- Syringa is for those who pray to the Dark Prince of Pleasure.
This new Turbo Dork Remix line has lots of exciting news and features to look out for! Pre-orders for this new line will be opening up in February on their website, so be sure to keep an eye out for that!
