About product

Fluorescent magenta, the Premium Color line

A Vallejo acrylic model paint from the Premium Color line in a fluorescent magenta shade. A fluorescent pigment turns part of the invisible ultraviolet radiation into visible light. In daylight the shade therefore looks as though it were glowing by itself, and under an ultraviolet lamp it lights up in full.

Where a shade like this suits

A glowing magenta is not a shade for camouflage but for areas that are meant to be seen. It finds a use on warning and signal panels, on railway signals, on racing and design finishes, on models of present-day equipment with reflective features, and in work that plays with light, that is on figures, dioramas and fantasy subjects.

  • A fluorescent magenta shade, an acrylic binder
  • The Premium Color line, made by Vallejo
  • It stands out in daylight and under an ultraviolet source alike
  • Applied with an airbrush as well as a brush
  • Suitable for signal areas, racing finishes and design motifs

Application tips

Fluorescent paints have a lower covering power by their very nature, so apply them over a light ground. A white base coat is the surest way to get the full glow, as over a gray or dark ground the shade goes gray. Shake the bottle thoroughly before use, the pigment settles. Apply several thin coats and let them dry between each other, as one heavy coat will leave blotches. It is worth covering the finished area with varnish, because fluorescent pigments fade over time in direct sunlight. Better not to display the model in a window.

This is the paint on its own. The model, a base paint, thinner and varnish are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Fluorescent pigments have a lower covering power. Apply a white ground first and then two or three thin coats of the paint; only then does the shade light up in full.

Yes, just as with a brush. Shake the paint thoroughly before use and thin it with a thinner intended for acrylic paints of the same brand.

A fluorescent pigment fades over time in direct sunlight. Cover the finished area with varnish and do not display the model in a window, which will extend the life of the shade considerably.

Ordinary modeling surfaces, that is polystyrene, resin and metal, provided they are clean and free of grease. On smooth and glossy surfaces a ground of base paint pays off.
