Metal Color Jet Exhaust

Metal Color is an innovative range of metallic colours, formulated with aluminum pigments in a water-based formula. The metallic colours selected for this range are those most frequently used by international air forces worldwide, and their exceptional sheen and reflective quality allow the modeler to use Metal Color for the entire painting process without needing to resort to solvent-based enamels or lacquers. Metal Color can be applied directly on the model with an airbrush or diluted with our Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and dries very quickly, forming a self-leveling and homogenous paint film of extraordinary resistance, while preserving even the smallest detail of the model. Can be mixed in the airbrush cup itself with other colors of the Model Air or Game Air range. Metal Color can also be applied with a brush.

For airbrushing, compressor settings of 15 - 20 PSI or 0.5 to 1 kg are recommended. For optimal airbrush maintenance, we recommend using Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner. For aircraft model fuselages and components, it is recommended to first apply a base of glossy black primer to bring out the unique qualities of the aluminum finish. When masking procedures: Metal Color dries very quickly, but it is advisable to wait 12 hours after application before proceeding with the masking process.
