Jim Scale metallics are made using the finest pigment on the market. The paints are odorless and safe for allergy sufferers.
Adhesion: The color is dense with a high degree of coverage and adhesion to the model. The paints apply well even to unprimed surfaces. The painted surface has a semi-matte color and a smooth, integral structure.
Airbrush/brush: paints can be applied either with an airbrush without additional thinning or directly with a brush. The paint can be thinned with a proprietary thinner (Art. 01.010) or any thinner for water-based acrylics.
Bottles: paints are packaged in 18 ml bottles. The diameter of the bottles is 27mm.
Mixing: during storage, separation into fractions is possible, which is typical for liquid acrylics and does not degrade the quality of the paint. Each bottle contains a ball with a diameter of 6 mm made of AISI 304 stainless steel. Before use, it is recommended to shake the contents of the bottle until smooth for a minute.
Freezing: paints tolerate sub-zero temperatures (down to -30).
Interaction with removers: application of removers based on white spirit, filters, varnishes and other chemicals is recommended 24 hours after painting. After a day, the paint dries completely, while the paint layer remains relatively elastic and can withstand even slight shrinkage of varnishes.
Washing: It is recommended to wash the airbrush immediately after painting with plain water (not necessarily distilled).
ATTENTION! Do not thin paints with Tamiya X-20 or X-20A thinners or any alcohol-based thinners (isopropanol). If the thinner smells like alcohol, it should not be used.
