Weathering resistance is the working property at the centre of AK487 Xtreme Metal Metallic Blue. This metallic blue lacquer is made for scale-model paintwork and remains resistant during later weathering processes. The colour coat therefore continues as the finished metallic layer while the modeller develops the surrounding surface through subsequent stages of the weathering sequence.
The quantity supplied is 30 ml.
Packed as a single colour.
The product is also labelled Blue Electric Metal.
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.
