Have you tried black and then a couple of layers of orange?

Ive used black a couple of times and it covers the oasis nicely.

Hi Amanda so did you give it one coat of black and maybe 2 of orange thanks and with it being oasis did it take longer to dry in between coats

would have thought u would need a lighter colour as a base,,, White/cream, or yellow,,, would edge to yellow because its quite close to orange... if they dont coat the oasis to good then just Maybe Silver.. The silver in oasis spray will cover most things... but not sure if orange will take to it very well... .... ....

Black takes no bother, and thats on wet oasis too. I did one coat and then a wee spray just to cover any missed bits.

FAB man, Id usually say a lighter colour aswell but thought if the silver didnt work then maybe a harsher colour was needed.
