View · Overview

Product overview

Built for the darker metallic areas of scale aircraft, AK2029 is a 35 ml enamel wash for landing gear, jet-engine components and hydraulic suspension detail. It settles around moulded and assembled features to create shadows and separation, helping the structure remain readable across metallic finishes. The Air Series formula is intended for both Second World War and modern aircraft subjects.

  • Enamel medium and Air Series positioning are printed on the bottle label.
  • Apply the wash over the required area with a round brush.
  • After several minutes of drying, remove surplus with a flat brush dampened with AK011 White Spirit.

Notes · Q & A

What is a model wash and when would I use one?

A wash is a very thin, highly pigmented acrylic fluid that flows into recessed detail by capillary action. Apply it over a sealed base coat to add shading around panel lines, rivets and surface texture, or use it as a full-surface filter to shift the overall tone of the model.

Do I need to seal the surface before applying a wash?

A smooth, sealed surface gives the wash a consistent flow and makes cleanup easier. A coat of gloss or satin varnish before the wash prevents it from staining a matt base coat unevenly.

How do I apply a wash and clean up the excess?

Load a soft brush and touch it to the area you want to shade; the wash will flow into the recesses on its own. After roughly 20 minutes of drying time, wipe away any unwanted residue from raised surfaces with a clean, slightly damp brush or cotton bud. These washes are water-based, so tools clean with water.

Can I apply a wash with an airbrush?

Yes. The manufacturer confirms these washes can be applied by brush or airbrush. A light, even pass with an airbrush works well as an overall filter to unify the tone of a model or add a subtle colour shift across a large surface.
