Cobra Motor Acrylic Thinner (60mL)

AMMO of Mig Jimenez Cobra Motor Acrylic Thinner, acrylic thinner, 60 ml

An acrylic thinner from AMMO of Mig Jimenez that belongs to the Cobra Motor paint line intended for car and motorcycle models. It is neither a paint nor a clear coat: it is an auxiliary product with which you adjust the consistency of the acrylic paints and primers of the line so that they stay fluid without losing depth of shade or adhesion. The package is a 60 ml bottle. Compared with lacquer-based thinners it has a low odor, so it is more comfortable to work with at home. Correctly thinned paint flows out better, leaves no visible brush strokes, and during spraying it markedly reduces the risk of a grainy surface (the orange peel effect), of a clogged nozzle or of the airbrush spitting.

Use

• Thinning the acrylic paints and primers of the Cobra Motor line before airbrush spraying.
• Adjusting the consistency of paint for brushwork, so the paint flows out better and leaves no strokes.
• Mixing thin translucent layers and soft transitions, where the paint has to be thinned a great deal.
• Flushing the airbrush and cleaning tools right after working with acrylics, while the paint is still fresh.
• Add the thinner gradually and keep checking the paint: overthinned paint runs and covers worse.
• Close the bottle firmly after use and store it at room temperature, away from frost and direct sun.

Who the thinner is for

For modelers who work with the acrylic paints of the Cobra Motor line, typically builders of car and motorcycle models, where a smooth, even surface with no grain and no brush strokes is needed. It will be appreciated above all by those who spray with an airbrush and want the consistency of the paint under control, and by modelers who do not want to use lacquer-based thinners because of the odor.

A thinner: work in a well-ventilated space and use extraction and respiratory protection when spraying with an airbrush. Avoid contact with the eyes and prolonged contact with the skin, close the bottle carefully and keep out of the reach of children.
