Walk on Paints are made for leather heels and solid soled loafers BUT are not meant to apply on the soles of sneakers or any other shoes. It will not hold and eventually wears off.
Angelus Paints carries a vast assortment of matched colors to several of todays most coveted shoes. You can find those colors in the Collectors Edition. If you want some help getting closer to a certain color we do not have we do have customer support to help.
After your surface is properly prepped (see Prep section) we always recommend laying down 1-2 base coats of a standard color paint (not a neon, pearlescent, metallic, etc.) which is close to the color of Neon paint that you will be using. After your base coats with a standard paint color, apply thin coats of your Neon paint until you have reached solid coverage.
For example, if you want to use Bahama Blue, first apply 1-2 layers of standard Blue. After you have applied a base coat of Blue, apply Bahama Blue until you achieve full coverage. Doing this will ensure that your final color is solid, opaque, and pops as much as possible!
