Water-based Metallic Paint Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Metallic Shining Silver 1 pc

The Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Metallic Shining Silver is a water-based metallic paint formulated for miniature and model painting. Supplied as one liquid bottle, it delivers a bright silver metallic finish using a proprietary blend of aluminium flake and mica to combine coverage with a high sheen. The paint is non-toxic, conforms to ASTM D-4236, and is intended for use on plastic, resin and metal miniatures. It is not suitable for children under 36 months.

Advantages

This metallic paint provides improved coverage and a pronounced shimmer compared with many traditional metallics due to its specialised aluminium and mica formulation. As a water-based, non-toxic product it is easy to thin with water and clean up after use. The formulation allows for strong reflective highlights and smooth metallic effects without requiring excessive layering, and it mixes readily with other colours in the Warpaints Fanatic Metallic range to create custom silver tones and metallic blends.

Suitable for

• Adding reflective silver highlights to plastic miniatures
• Creating metallic surfaces on resin model parts
• Detailing metal miniatures and wargaming figures
• Mixing with other metallics to adjust sheen and tone

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to evenly distribute the aluminium and mica pigments. Apply in thin, even coats with a fine brush for miniature details or a larger brush for broader areas. For stronger metallic coverage, allow the first thin layer to dry and apply a second coat. Thin with a small amount of water if necessary to improve flow or for glazing effects. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

Store the paint in a cool, dry place and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Test on a spare piece of the same material before applying to a finished model. For best results on fine details, use a high-quality synthetic brush and consider sealing finished work with a compatible clear varnish designed for water-based paints.
