View · Overview

Product overview

AK300 Dark Yellow Wash is an enamel weathering product in a 35 ml bottle, formulated for German Dunkelgelb and other medium-toned vehicle finishes. Applied selectively, it settles around raised fittings, recessed lines and panel edges so the original paint scheme gains contrast and depth. Its published subject range also covers aircraft, figures and diorama work, although dark-yellow surfaces are its defining role.

  • Shake the bottle thoroughly before loading a brush.
  • Place the wash around the details, then lift unwanted excess with a clean brush moistened in enamel thinner.
  • White Spirit or Odourless Turpentine can dissolve and adjust the enamel during weathering.

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.
