Product overview

The 35 ml AK303 Grey Wash for Kriegsmarine Ships is an enamel wash for grey hulls and superstructures, where panel divisions, fittings and vertical construction detail need definition. Its Kriegsmarine focus separates it from a deck-specific wash, while the published application range also reaches grey vessels of other navies and similarly coloured aircraft or tanks.

  • Shake well, then guide the wash around selected relief and recessed lines with a brush.
  • Remove excess with a second brush dampened in White Spirit, refining the edges as you go.
  • Odourless Turpentine may also be used to dissolve or adjust the enamel.

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.
