Mr.Hobby LAC101 Alumite Black for Detailed Model Guns

Mr.Hobby LAC101 Alumite Black is a lacquer paint optimised to reproduce a realistic alumite effect on 1/12 scale model guns. The 18ml size is convenient for hobby use and this paint is produced within the Mr.Color line known for stable finishes.

Why Mr.Hobby LAC101 Works Well

The pigment gives a true-to-life black similar to anodised alumite while offering good adhesion to plastics. Its rapid drying time and fine finish make it suitable for both brushwork and airbrush techniques on small gun models.

Tips for a Smooth Finish

Ensure parts are clean and degreased before painting. Use a fine-tipped brush for small details or thin the paint for airbrushing to achieve even layers. Apply multiple light coats and allow drying between passes to increase depth without obscuring detail.

Yes, when applied sparingly with a fine brush or by airbrushing thin coats, LAC101 holds detail well on small components like grips and barrels.
Priming is recommended for better adhesion on bare plastic or mixed materials; use a lacquer-compatible primer for best results.
Allow several hours for surface cure and 24 hours for full handling strength, depending on temperature and humidity.
