How to use

Shake each bottle before use to ensure pigments are evenly dispersed. Apply directly from the dispenser with a fine brush for details, or thin the paint with water or a recommended acrylic thinner to achieve smoother coverage and glazing effects. Build metallic layers gradually, allowing drying between coats to control intensity and avoid pooling. For best adhesion, work on clean, primed surfaces and use a suitable primer compatible with water-based acrylics.

Usage recommendations

For fine details and highlights, use the undiluted paint applied with a small, steady brush; for larger surfaces or glazing, thin the paint slightly and apply multiple translucent layers. Test mixing of similar shades on the provided color chart to determine desired tone before applying to the model. Store bottles upright in a cool, dry place and cap tightly after use to preserve consistency.
