About product

The color

A white prepared for building the RX-78-2 robot, in a semi-gloss execution. The color is mixed in advance, so you do not have to put it together out of several paints, and when topping up with a bottle of the same designation the shades follow on from one another. A semi-gloss surface lies between matte and gloss: it does not reflect light as sharply as gloss, but neither does it swallow the shape the way a deep matte does.

The ground and the coverage

White covers worse than most other shades. On a dark or inconsistently colored surface let a light base go before it, or you will go on layering until the detail is lost in the thin edges. Before painting, wash the ground and degrease it and let it harden, so that the layers do not draw into one another.

Application

Stir the bottle thoroughly before use; the pigment settles to the bottom and unstirred paint changes both the covering power and the gloss. Choose the thinner intended for this range and the ratio of thinning according to the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. With an airbrush work in thin layers with a pause for it to become tacky, and keep the brush for small parts and for touching up edges. Clean the tools right after the work; dried paint is considerably harder to get out of a nozzle.

How to finish the build

Panel line highlighting and the fitting of decals sit well on dried white, and a semi-gloss surface is more welcoming to both than a coarse matte. Then unify the whole model with a varnish according to the final look you want. Thinner and cleaner are not included in the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The thinner intended for this range, in the ratio given in the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. Before reaching for a universal thinner, check on the packaging whether it is suitable for this paint.

White covers worse than other shades, so count on several thin layers. Over a light base you need markedly fewer of them than over bare dark plastic.

Yes, a brush suits small parts and touching up edges. Large areas come out better from an airbrush, because no strokes are left on them.

Yes. Let the layer harden properly and only then carry on. A semi-gloss surface is more welcoming to decals than a coarse matte.
