Often the lack of camouflage paints in a war theater has forced crews to improvise. They resorted to applying a mixture of local soil suspended in water, oil, and other fluids in order to camouflage their vehicles into the local terrain. This washable paint produces the same effects and while allows us to represent these improvised camouflage patterns from a wide range of areas and armies. Being washable, we can simulate the effects of wear caused by the crew, rain, and moisture. Acrylic product formulated for maximum performance both with brush or airbrush. Water soluble, odorless, and non-toxic. Shake well before each use. Each jar includes a stainless steel agitator to facilitate mixture. We recommend A.MIG-2000 Acrylic Thinner for a correct thinning.

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.
