Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I mix this with other paint brands?

It is recommended to stick to the Revell product ecosystem, particularly using Revell Colour Mix, to ensure chemical compatibility.

Is this paint acrylic or enamel?

This is a synthetic resin enamel paint.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Use Revell Painta Clean to effectively remove synthetic resin residue from your brushes.

Can I use this paint on materials other than plastic?

Yes, it is suitable for various materials used in DIY enthusiast projects, but always test on a scrap piece first.

Do I need a primer?

While it adheres well to plastic, using a model primer can improve color vibrancy and long-term durability.

Can I apply a gloss coat over this matte paint?

Yes, once the paint has fully cured for 24 hours, you can apply a gloss varnish over the top.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick for airbrushing

Dilute the paint using Revell Colour Mix until it reaches a consistency similar to milk.

Brush marks visible on the model

Thin the paint slightly and use a higher-quality soft-bristle brush, applying multiple light coats instead of one heavy coat.

Paint taking longer than 24 hours to cure

Ensure the application environment is well-ventilated and within a moderate temperature range, as high humidity can delay the drying process.

Pros and Cons

  • Compatible with both brush and spray gun application

  • Requires 4 to 6 hours between coats

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure your model surface is clean and free of dust or oils to promote better paint adhesion. If using a brush, clean your tools immediately after use with `Revell Painta Clean` to prevent hardening. For spray gun applications, `Revell Airbrush Clean` is required to flush the internal components thoroughly. Store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly after every use to prevent the enamel from thickening. If the paint becomes too viscous, add small amounts of `Revell Colour Mix` until the desired consistency is restored.
