FAQs
Can I mix this with other paint brands?
It is recommended to only mix this with other Revell enamel shades to ensure chemical compatibility.
Is this paint acrylic or enamel?
This is a synthetic resin enamel paint.
What should I use to clean my brushes?
Use 'Revell Painta Clean' to effectively remove enamel residue from your brushes.
Do I need a primer?
While not strictly required on all plastics, using a primer can help with color adhesion, especially on lighter or non-plastic surfaces.

While durable, this paint is designed primarily for indoor scale models and hobby projects.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears too thick for airbrushing
Thin the paint using 'Revell Color Mix' until it reaches a consistency similar to milk.
Brush marks are visible on the model
Apply thinner coats and allow the paint to self-level; ensure your brush is high-quality and free of dried residue.
Paint is not drying after 24 hours
Ensure the application environment has adequate ventilation and low humidity, as high moisture can interfere with the curing process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the paint for airbrushing, ensure you use 'Revell Color Mix' to reach the desired viscosity. Always stir the paint thoroughly before application to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. For cleanup, utilize 'Revell Painta Clean' for brushes and 'Revell Airbrush Clean' for your spray equipment to ensure longevity of your tools. Store the tin in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is sealed tightly after every session to prevent the enamel from thickening.
