FAQs

Are these paints suitable for beginners?

Yes, these paints are easy to use, even for beginners. The ready-to-use formula simplifies the painting process.

Can I mix these paints?

While the set is designed to provide pre-matched colors, you can mix the paints to create custom shades.

What kind of thinner should I use?

Use a thinner specifically designed for acrylic paints. Consult the paint manufacturer's recommendations.

How do I store the paints?

Store the paints in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the bottles are tightly sealed to prevent drying.

Can these paints be used on materials other than plastic?

These paints are primarily designed for plastic model kits. While they may work on other surfaces, results may vary.

How many coats of paint should I apply?

Apply thin, even coats of paint. Two to three coats are usually sufficient to achieve good coverage and color depth.

How long does it take for the paint to dry?

Drying time depends on the environment, but typically, the paint will be dry to the touch within 30 minutes to an hour. Allow several hours for complete curing before handling the model.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears too thick for airbrushing.

Thin the paint with a suitable thinner designed for acrylic paints. Apply the paint in thin layers.

Paint is not adhering to the model surface.

Ensure the model surface is clean and primed. Apply thin coats of paint.

Paint is clumping or drying too quickly.

Shake the paint bottle thoroughly before use. Make sure the airbrush is clean and operating correctly.
