The consistency of Model color allows for an extremely smooth and uniform paint film with no trace of brush strokes. Professional model painters always work with a wet brush and dilute the paint with water or Mat Medium applying many thin layers to achieve depth and shadows. Colors may also be diluted with other Mediums for glazes and layered applications. The water based formula of Model color has been specifically developed for adherence on difficult surfaces such as metal and plastic but the product is not toxic not flammable and does not give off noxious fumes. Errors can be corrected immediately with water or alcohol Model color dries quickly to a matte even and waterproof finish. Exact drying time depends on the temperature and humidity of the environment on the surface which has been painted and on the thickness of the paint layer - although the colors are dry to the touch within minutes the water content keeps on evaporating and the paint does not acquire its true permanence until several weeks after application..
