AK636 Starship Detail Wash is an enamel wash in a 35 ml bottle that defines panel lines and small features on grey or neutral-coloured models. Its controlled role is contrast rather than broad staining: place it where adjoining panels and recessed details need separation. Application over a glossy or satin surface is recommended, allowing the wash to flow and be wiped back more readily.
Shake the bottle before loading a fine brush.
Guide the wash into selected lines and around individual details.
Dilute the product and clean tools with White Spirit AK011 or AK047.
Its published themes cover fantasy, science-fiction and wargaming subjects.

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.
