The colors are chosen with the help and advice of the best model painters from different countries.
Professional model painters always work with a wet brush and dilute the paint with water and matt medium, after which they apply it in various thin layers to simulate depth and shadows. This gray color can also be diluted with other media to achieve glazes and other layers applications. Mistakes can be corrected with water or with a little alcohol, provided this is done immediately. The consistency of Model Color ensures an extremely smooth and tight paint film without any trace of the brush strokes. The gray color can easily be applied with a brush and dried to a matte result.
The unique thing about this gray paint is that it is delivered in a so-called "eyedropper" jar containing 17ml. acrylic paint. The "eyedropper" (or eye dropper) ensures that the amount of paint can be dosed very easily and the paint does not dry out so quickly. Of course it can always happen that the opening is sometimes blocked a bit. You can easily solve this by releasing the opening with a needle or thin cocktail stick.
