AK Interactive Streaking Grime Enamel Paint 35ml Bottle

AK Interactive Streaking Grime (Enamel) – 35ml is a ready-to-use weathering effect designed to create realistic vertical grime streaks, rain marks, and accumulated dirt on scale models. It’s especially effective on armor, railcars, locomotives, structures, ships, and dioramas where runoff and grime naturally build up over time.

Why modelers love it

• Authentic grime tone for rain-streaked panels, rivet lines, and recessed details
• Enamel working time allows smooth blending and controlled streaking
• Brush-friendly consistency—apply straight from the bottle
• Layerable for subtle staining or heavy, lived-in weathering
• 35ml bottle—great value for repeated weathering sessions

Best uses

• Freight cars & locomotives: runoff streaks under rooflines, ladders, and panel seams
• Armor & military vehicles: grime trails on vertical plates, bolts, and hatches
• Buildings & structures: rain marks under windowsills, signs, vents, and gutters
• Ships & sci-fi: grime streaking around vents, plating seams, and greebles

How to apply (quick method)

1. Apply small vertical lines or dots where grime would collect (top edges, seams, bolts).
2. Wait a minute or two for the enamel to set slightly.
3. Blend downward with a clean brush lightly dampened with enamel thinner/white spirits to create natural streaks.
4. Build layers until the effect matches your prototype reference.

Tip: For best control, apply over a fully cured paint job and consider a protective clear coat before heavy enamel weathering. Combine with washes, pigments, and rust tones to create convincing depth and age.

Note: Enamel products should be used with proper ventilation. Keep cap sealed tightly to prevent thickening.
