Product overview
Engines and bare metal weather differently from hulls, and this five-piece weathering set holds everything AK considers necessary for realistic effects on any type of engine or metal object, tank tracks included. Three 35 ml enamels — Engine Grime, Track Wash and Fresh Engine Oil — cover dirt, grease and rusting metal, while two 35 ml pigments finish the work: a dark rust and Dark Steel, which AK's set description calls a super metal coloured pigment with no equal on the market. The box prints 35ml 5 jars and no series badge. Every one of the five jars is stocked by us separately.
Set contains: AK082 Engine Grime (Enamel), AK083 Track Wash (Enamel), AK084 Fresh Engine Oil (Enamel), AK085 Track Rust Pigment (Pigment) and AK086 Dark Steel Pigment (Pigment)
The box's own breakdown: three weathering products, one super metallic pigment and one pigment — the three enamels are grime, wash and oil, of which two are engine colours per AK's set text
Engine Grime gives the greyish, dark, matt aspect of heavily used engines, applied by brush or airbrush and blended with enamel thinner per AK; Fresh Engine Oil covers the grease and spilt-fuel look of engines and transmissions; Track Wash is AK's colour for tank tracks and other rusting metal effects
AK's set description calls Dark Steel a super metal coloured pigment with no equal on the market, brighter the more it is rubbed and containing no metallic particles — a set-level claim the box echoes with its printed "1 SUPER METALLIC PIGMENT" line
All five members are stocked by us separately, so any single jar can be replaced without rebuying the box

Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between a paint and a wash?+
Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.
Can I use these paints in an airbrush?+
Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.
Do I need a primer?+
Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.
