Product Info

Humbrol has been the modelers standard for decades. Originally produced in a small range of colors for painting bike frames, it now comes in over 80 colors, and is perfect for modelers wishing to see a high quality and tough finish on their creations. Humbrol enamel can also be used on a wide range of art and craft applications, on many surfaces and as a touch up or surface paint around the home and for DIY applications. Suitable for indoor or outdoor usage.

Usage:
A solvent-based, fast-drying paint developed for use on plastic model kits but can also be used on other substrates.

Substrate:
A wide range of surfaces including most plastics, wood, glass, ceramics, metal, cardboard, sealed plaster, sealed hardboard and more. Always try on a small test area first to check suitability.

Coverage:
14ml tin covers approx. 0.3m² depending on thickness of application.

Application:
Brush straight from the tin. Airbrush with a suitable thinner such as Humbrol Enamel Thinners. Two thin coats are preferable to one thick coat. The usual thinning ratio is 2 parts paint to 1 part thinner. Note: Metalcote colors are designed to be polished when fully dry.

Drying time: Metalcote: 1-2 hours touch dry; up to 24 hours for hard dry. Drying times will vary according to ambient temperature and humidity. Recoat: 6 hours minimum (advisement is to leave overnight).
