IONIC DRYBRUSH Light Silver

What the paint is for

A dry brush works by leaving only a minute amount of paint on the brush and wiping everything else off. A light stroke then colors the edges and the raised places alone, the hollows stay dark and the surface gains depth from it. The paints of the IONIC DRYBRUSH range are prepared for this way of applying and are used on vehicles, figures and scenery alike.

The shade Light Silver

A light silvery tone is the shade for places where the surface has been rubbed through to the bare substrate. A dry brush is ideal for this type of wear, because the paint clings exactly to the edges, the walking surfaces and the projections, that is where a hand, a boot or a load rubs in reality. It is used on the edges of hatches and doors, on grab handles and steps, on the edges of tools and blades, on the gear of figures and on the edges of tracks and chains. Here it holds doubly that less is more, because overdone silver edges look like an outline drawn with a pencil. Whether the shade has a sheen, check against the manufacturer's color chart.

How to work with a dry brush

Take a small amount of paint onto a flat brush with stiffer bristles and wipe almost all of it off on a paper towel. Then pass over the edges with quick light strokes, without pressure. With light tones check the result against daylight, because in daylight an excess shows sooner than under a lamp. Deal with the thinner, the cleaning of the brush and the drying time according to the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.
