Mr Hobby Aqueous Semi Gloss Neutral Grey Acrylic Paint 10ml

Aqueous Hobby Color is a paint that is both safe and user-friendly. It can be diluted with water if desired, and paint brushes can be cleaned and washed out in water. The solvent contained in Aqueous Hobby Color paint is very mild, making it a great choice for those who are sensitive to harsh chemicals.

Aqueous Hobby Color paint provides a glossy texture and very good levelling qualities, creating a smooth and even finish. If you want to adjust the gloss levels, you can use H-40 Flat Base. By mixing approximately 5% of H-40 Flat Base you can convert gloss colours to a matt finish, or 5 to 10% for a semi-gloss finish. The percentage of Flat Base used can be adjusted to vary the amount of gloss level obtained.

Aqueous Hobby Color paint also has an improved drying speed compared to conventional solvent-based paints. This is particularly noticeable when using an airbrush. It can be used on a wide variety of surfaces, including plastic, wood, metal, and resin.

When brush painting, generally 1 to 2 coats are recommended, and 2 to 3 coats when using an airbrush. If painting a light colour over a darker base surface, more coats may be required. It is not necessary to dilute Aqueous Hobby Color for brush painting as a basic rule, but if using an airbrush, dilute the paint with 100 to 150% Aqueous Color Thinner (T110 or T111).
