Product overview

Tip drying in an airbrush can be slowed by adding a few drops of AK737 Drying Retarder to acrylic paint. Supplied in a 60 ml dropper bottle, this odourless, non-toxic auxiliary is particularly relevant in high temperatures, when paint can dry quickly around the needle. With a brush, it extends working time for glazing or other controlled applications.

  • Suitable for all kinds of acrylic paint.
  • Add only a few drops to the airbrush cup.
  • Brush application supports glazing techniques.
  • No mixing ratio or added working-time figure is specified.

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.
