Acrylic Wash Paint Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Wash — Red Tone, liquid, 1 pc

The Army Painter Warpaints Fanatic Wash — Red Tone is an acrylic, water-based wash designed to enhance shading and deepen recesses on miniatures and scale models. Supplied in a single liquid bottle of approximately 28–35 ml, this red wash targets fine details and surfaces to increase contrast and definition. The formulation conforms to ASTM D-4236 and is intended for hobby and model use; it is not suitable for children under 36 months.

Advantages

This Fanatic Wash features controlled flow properties that naturally settle into panel lines and crevices to create consistent shading without obscuring raised detail. The colour provides warm red toning that reinforces sculpted features and creates visual depth. Water-based acrylic composition allows easy thinning, cleanup with water, and safe mixing with other water-based paints to adjust intensity or hue. The brush-applied formula is suitable for both quick washes and layered glazing techniques.

Suitable for

• Tabletop miniatures and wargaming figures
• Plastic and resin models
• Scale model weathering and tonal correction
• Detail definition on sculpted surfaces and basing work

How to use

Apply the wash with a fine or medium brush, allowing the fluid to flow into recesses and panel lines. Use a single stroke or multiple thin layers depending on desired intensity; remove excess from raised areas with a clean brush or damp cloth while still wet if necessary. For controlled results, test mix with water or other water-based paints to reduce saturation before applying to the model. Allow each coat to dry fully before applying further layers or varnish.

Usage recommendations

Use on fully primed surfaces for best adhesion and consistent shading. Thin lightly for subtle toning or apply directly for stronger red shading. Avoid use on non-porous surfaces without appropriate priming. Store upright in a cool, dry place and shake before use to ensure even pigmentation.
