Description
Model Air is a range of liquid acrylic colours developed especially for
airbrush techniques, with very finely ground pigments and an acrylic resin
with properties of extreme resistence and durability.
The formula contains a new acrylic resin with properties until now impossible to
obtain in a waterbased acrylic. The resistence, hardness and covering power of
Model Air is superior to any known acrylic for airbrushing.
The pigments used for airbrush colours need to be ground to the finest
possible consistency to avoid obstruction of the airbrush valves. The
revolutionary milling process of the pigments used in the Model Air formula
gives the modelpainter technical assurance and finest texture when applying
the colours to the model, and produces a very superior qualtity when applying
the colours with a brush for miniscule details, for washes and transparencies
and layered application of diluted glazes.
Colours can be mixed with one another, diluted with water, Model Air Thinner
or Varnish, according to the effect desired, but we recommend the use of Model
Air Thinner since this product conserves the properties of the colours. Model
Air adheres excepcionally well to all surfaces. The adhesion of Model Air to
resin models, plastics, steel and white metal is extraordinary. Once protected
with varnish, (Gloss, Matte or Satin) Model Air can be overpainted with
solvent based enamels or oilcolours: they withstand cleaning with turpentine
and even a light wash with alcohol. The resistance to abrasion of the colours,
once varnished, is superior to any other waterbased acrylic.
Presentation:
Model Air is presented in a 17 ml. bottle with eyedropper. This packaging
prevents the paint from evaporating and drying in the container.
