Brush-on Chrome Paint 17ml

This alcohol-based metallic brush-on chrome paint replicates the highly reflective, mirror-like properties of chrome plating, ideal for achieving realistic metallic finishes on models, miniatures, and scale replicas. While primarily intended for brush application, it is equally compatible with airbrush techniques, it works on surfaces of any color and should be cleaned with alcohol for optimal maintenance. Its drying time varies, typically between 5 to 30 minutes, depending on the coating thickness and environmental conditions, so adequate drying time is advised for the best results.

The paint’s mirror effect makes it perfect for adding striking realism and visual appeal to details like armor, weaponry, and polished metal surfaces in models of cars, planes, and more. However, due to its reflective nature, surface preparation is essential, as imperfections may be amplified. 

It's important to note that adding inks or standard varnishes over the chrome paint may reduce or negate its reflective mirror finish. Furthermore, the unique property of fresh chrome paint to dissolve previously dried layers beneath it necessitates applying it in one go and ideally limiting its use to smaller surface areas for the best results.

Highly beneficial for artistic and hobbyist applications, this product excels in modeling, miniature painting, and scale modeling, enabling realistic and eye-catching finishes. Its reflective qualities effectively mimic polished metallic surfaces found on real-world objects, enhancing the authenticity and visual impact of creations such as classic car models, terminators, and spacecraft replicas.

Due to its reflective properties, careful surface preparation and meticulous application techniques are crucial, as any imperfections can be noticeably amplified. Additionally, the paint's versatility allows artists to choose between brush or airbrush applications, offering greater control and precision in achieving desired effects
