Paint Marker Gimmik AK Interactive RCM024 RLM 02 Gray (1938) — aerosol-style paint marker for scale models

Gimmik AK Interactive RCM024 RLM 02 Gray (1938) is an aerosol-style paint marker formulated specifically for scale modelers seeking the authentic RLM 02 gray tone used on historical aircraft and vehicles. The marker delivers a controlled, fine application suitable for panel lines, small touch-ups and precision weathering on plastic, resin and metal surfaces. Its portable pen format allows targeted work without the need for an airbrush for small details and corrections.

Advantages

The marker offers an accurate model-specific RLM 02 gray hue that matches historical references for 1930s–1940s German finishes. Its tip and internal valve system enable steady flow and precise control for narrow areas while minimizing overspray. The solvent system adheres well to common modelling materials and provides good coverage for spot repairs, pre-shading and subtle detailing. The compact design is convenient for on-the-spot corrections and layered weathering techniques.

Suitable for

• Panel line accenting and edge highlights on scale aircraft and vehicles
• Small touch-ups and repairs on painted model parts
• Targeted weathering and shading effects in limited areas
• Working on plastic, resin and small metal components

Key specifications

• Color tone: RLM 02 Gray (1938) — historical gray shade for scale modelling
• Format: aerosol-style marker (pen/marker applicator) for controlled application
• Suitable substrates: plastic, resin and metal model surfaces
• Application: designed for precision work—panel lines, touch-ups, shading
• Drying properties: low- to medium-fast drying suitable for layering and weathering

How to use

Shake the marker well before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Depress the tip briefly on a test surface to activate flow until paint appears. Apply with light, steady strokes along panel lines or to small areas requiring correction, working from thin layers to achieve the desired intensity. Allow each layer to dry before applying additional passes or clear coats. Clean the tip after use according to the manufacturer’s instructions and store capped in a cool, upright position.

Usage recommendations

Use on properly primed or previously painted surfaces for best adhesion. Test on a scrap piece or an inconspicuous area to confirm compatibility with existing paints and finishes. For broader coverage or uniform base coats, use a compatible airbrush or spray product; reserve the marker for detail work, weathering accents and localized repairs.
