How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure uniform pigment dispersion. For most airbrush setups the paint can be used straight from the bottle; if necessary thin gradually with water or dedicated acrylic airbrush thinner to reach the optimal viscosity for your nozzle and pressure. Apply in thin, even passes to build color depth and avoid runs. Clean the airbrush and tools with water or appropriate cleaner immediately after use to prevent clogging and preserve equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protection and work in a well-ventilated area when airbrushing. Test compatibility on a spare part or palette before applying to final models. Store upright in a cool, dry place and tightly close the cap after use to maintain paint quality.
