Flat Metallic Finish for Model Work

Mr.Hobby SM212 Super Metallic Super Matt Aluminium delivers a restrained metallic tone in a 10ml bottle, ideal for adding realistic metal touches to miniatures and models. The low-sheen result is practical for scale work where glare would be distracting.

Where to Use This Paint

The paint is well suited to plastic kits, resin parts and scenic components that need a muted aluminium appearance. It should not be used on unprepared polycarbonate surfaces, but it excels on typical modelling materials after priming.

Application Advice

Ensure surfaces are clean and primed before painting. Shake thoroughly to blend pigments, then lay down multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Allow sufficient drying time between passes to keep the finish even.

Is this suitable for clear polycarbonate shells?

No, this product is not formulated for polycarbonate RC shells. Use paints made specifically for polycarbonate if you need a flexible finish for shells.

Can I brush this paint?

Yes, you can brush it for small areas, but thin, careful strokes work best. For large or even coats, airbrushing with a suitable thinner will give a smoother result.

How do I clean tools after use?

Clean brushes and airbrushes with an appropriate solvent recommended for lacquer-type paints. Wipe and flush equipment promptly to prevent residue buildup.

Do I need a primer first?

Priming helps adhesion and evens out porous surfaces for a better final appearance. Use a primer suitable for the model material before applying SM212.
