Scorched metal around an exhaust manifold is the job of AK484 Xtreme Metal Burnt Metal. This 30 ml metallic lacquer carries a burnt tint for surfaces exposed to heat, pairing that colour with the range’s ultra-high covering power. It gives the modeller a dedicated metallic shade for representing heat-affected areas on exhaust and manifold components.
A high sheen forms part of the finished appearance.
Priming is not required beneath this colour.
Contact with the lacquer does not damage the plastic below.
It withstands masking as well as weathering.
Varnish can be added without changing the gloss; made in Spain.

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.
