Mr. CRYSTAL COLOR XC04 Amethyst Purple 18ml
Original Release Date:
Product Description:
Mr. CRYSTAL COLOR is a line of high quality pearl paints. Although the color itself is clear, it provides iridescent finishes to painted surfaces and reflects light in a color tone. The shine is subtle, compared to metallic paints, however its pearl-like shimmer is visible from every angle.
Suitable for car models, character models, figures, and many more.
The colors would appear differently depending on the color of the base. If applied over a white base, the surface will have a shimmery pearl-like effect. If applied over a black base, Mr. CRYSTAL COLOR gives a metallic feel to the surface.
HOW TO APPLY Mr. CRYSTAL COLOR
Prepare the base before applying Mr. CRYSTAL COLOR. After drying the base color, apply 1 to 2 coats if painting with a paint brush or 2 to 3 coats if airbrushing. Let each coat dry for few hours.
Apply 2 coats of clear paints if needed, to achieve extra glossiness.
About Mr. COLOR Paint Series
Mr. COLOR paint from Mr. HOBBY is one of the highest quality lacquer solvent-based acrylic paint in the world, with amazing tone, balance, adhesion and colour richness. This fast-drying paint is great for both hand brushing and airbrushing.
Thinning Recommendations
Thinned using Mr. COLOR THINNER, Mr. COLOR LEVELING THINNER or Mr. COLOR RAPID THINNER, with a thinning ratio for airbrushing from 1:1 to 1:2 (Paint to Thinner ratio).
Mr. COLOR LEVELING THINNER has added retarder over the standard Mr. COLOR THINNER, allowing for a smoother, enhanced finish.
Mr. COLOR RAPID THINNER is designed to reduce drying time, particularly when airbrushing.
This thinner also enhances metallic Mr. COLOR paints by allowing them to quickly dry before the metallic pigments settle resulting in an improved metallic finish.
However, it is not recommended for gloss colours as the reduced drying time may reduce the gloss effect.
Safety Warning
Solvent-based paint contains harmful fumes and air particulates when airbrushing. When working with paint of this type, please ensure your workspace is well ventilated and a suitable paint respirator must be worn at all times.
