## Summary description

VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo: DIO Drybrush - Chipping is a specialized drybrush weathering medium for creating paint chipping and worn-surface effects on scale models and dioramas. Formulated for drybrushing techniques, it helps simulate exposed metal, paint loss and surface abrasion. Suitable for hobby modelers working on armor, vehicles, figures and scenic bases.

## Long description

VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo: DIO Drybrush - Chipping is a specialized drybrush weathering medium designed to reproduce paint chipping, exposed metal and worn surfaces on scale models and dioramas. Formulated for controlled drybrushing, it lays down pigment and fine particles to simulate flaked paint and abrasion without soaking the underlying layers. The product is intended for hobby modelers seeking realistic battle damage, wear patterns and surface texture on armor, vehicles, figures and scenic elements.
Advantages
This drybrush medium provides consistent, easy-to-control application for chipping and weathering effects, allowing gradual buildup of texture and tone. It adheres to common modeling substrates and interacts predictably with acrylic and enamel base coats when used as directed. The formulation dries rapidly and can be blended or muted with other weathering products to achieve subtle or pronounced results while preserving fine detail on small-scale parts.
Suitable for
Military armor and tracked vehicles requiring realistic chipping and exposed-metal effects
Automotive and aircraft scale models showing wear along edges and panels
Figures and helmets where paint abrasion and nicking are needed
Diorama scenery, bases and structures to simulate weathered surfaces
Key specifications
Form: drybrush weathering medium suitable for drybrushing technique
Effect: paint chipping and worn-surface simulation including exposed-metal appearance
Compatibility: intended for use over acrylic and enamel paints when proper preparation and sealing are observed
Application: applied with a drybrush or stiff-bristled brush for controlled abrasion and texture
Drying behavior: quick-drying to allow layering and blending
How to use
Apply the product using a nearly dry, stiff-bristled brush to pick up a small amount of the medium, then remove excess on a palette or paper until only a thin deposit remains on the brush. Lightly scrub or tap the edges and raised details of the model to imitate paint loss and exposed substrate. Build up the effect gradually in thin passes, checking results at normal viewing distance. If needed, soften transitions by a gentle dry blending or by applying a thin glaze of compatible paint or thinner. Allow adequate drying time between layers and seal finished weathering with a suitable varnish to protect the effect.
Usage recommendations
Test application on a scrap piece or inconspicuous area before use. Work in thin layers, increase intensity slowly, and ensure underlying paint is fully cured. Use appropriate brushes and masking to control placement, and finish with a clear coat for long-term protection.
