Key Product Features
Paint Type: High-quality enamel paint, developed by Alclad II.
Capacity: 30 ml, supplied in a convenient bottle.
Finish Effect: Unique "Candy Indigo" effect – a transparent, deep indigo shade, creating a high-gloss coating with an illusion of depth.
Application: Designed for painting scale models, miniatures, and other modeling components where specific, glossy surfaces are desired.
Usage and Painting Technique
Alclad II CANDY Indigo paint is intended for airbrush application, which allows for precise and even surface coverage. To achieve optimal results and the characteristic "Candy" effect, it is recommended to apply this paint over a previously primed surface coated with a glossy metallic base (e.g., Alclad II Chrome, Polished Aluminum). The transparent nature of CANDY Indigo paint allows the underlying metallic layer to "shine through," creating an effect of depth and iridescence.
Airbrush Application Parameters:
Operating Pressure: Recommended airbrush pressure is in the range of 1.0 atm to 1.5 atm.
Distance from Surface: The airbrush nozzle tip should be positioned at a distance of 4 cm to 6 cm from the painted surface. This distance ensures optimal paint atomization and controlled coverage.
Compatibility
Alclad II CANDY Indigo paint is compatible with most standard modeling substrates, including plastics, resins, and metal components. For the best visual effect and durability, it is recommended to use it in conjunction with Alclad II primers and metallic bases. This product is designed for modelers who wish to add a distinctive, glossy look to their projects.
