Mission Models Transparent Acrylic Paint (1oz)
Mission Models Transparent Acrylic Paint is a premium, professional-grade water-based acrylic designed for high-performance airbrushing and brush work. Unlike standard acrylics, this formula is "triple pigmented", offering incredible colour depth and a vibrant glass-like transparency that is essential for specialised finishing effects across multiple industries.
Applications:
- Scale Model Making: The definitive choice for tinting aircraft canopies, armoured vehicle periscopes, and navigation lights. Its ultra-fine pigment ensures no loss of detail, even at the smallest of scales.
- Film & TV SFX: Perfect for creating realistic "alien" or "supernatural" liquid effects, tinting transparent props, or adding aged filters to metallic surfaces. It is odourless and safe for use in closed studio environments.
- Architectural & Industrial Prototyping: Ideal for representing tinted glass facades, water features in landscape models, or indicating fluid flow in transparent technical prototypes.
- Automotive & RC: Excellent for custon light lenses on RC vehicles or creating "candy" finishes over metallic base coats.
Key Features for Professionals:
- Triple-Pigmented Depth: Uses lightfast organic pigments to achieve a rich, silky-smooth finish that won't fade under studio or gallery lighting.
- Non-Rewetting Formula: Once dry, the paint will not re-wet or light when adding subsequent layers. THis allows for precise opacity control through gradual building of thin coats.
- Infinite Shelf Life: Engineered to resist "kick-over" or breakdown in the bottle, ensuring consistency every time you reach for it.
- Superior Performance: Works reliably in a wide range of climates (from winter conditions to high humidity), making it a dependable choice for location-based work or varying workshop temperatures.
- Modular System: Can be mixed with Mission Models Polyurethane Intermix for an incredibly tough, chip-resistant finish, or thinned with MMP Reducer for ultra-fine detail washes.
