The CA series from the Mr.Color range brings satin technical shades drawn from the grey and ash part of the spectrum. Tones like these earn their place on mechanics, running gear, dark panels and anywhere a surface should read as worn metal or composite.
Satin is practical on those areas: they do not shine like lacquer, yet they avoid the chalky look of a fully matt colour.
Dark greys are rewarding because every layer that follows stands out on them. Once dry, run a wash into the grooves and drybrush the edges, and the surface gains depth immediately. The products for that are in the weathering category. Because the paint is most often sprayed onto small parts, it pairs with a fine nozzle from the spray guns category. The rest of the same brand's shades, including the recommended thinners, are in Gunze Mr.Color.
