About product

A Red with Higher Coverage

Red pigments are, along with yellow, among the poorest covering pigments there are. The designation super on this paint means that it contains more pigment than the ordinary red from the same range, so fewer coats are enough for a full tone. With bodywork that is essential, because a heavy coat would flood the fine lines and edges that make a model car convincing.

Paint properties

In terms of material this is a lacquer binder of the volatile type, and you will not manage to thin it with water. It can be thinned only with the brand's own thinner from the same range, at roughly half to the full volume of the paint. The volume of the bottle is 10 ml. The dried layer is hard and, above all, can be polished, which is what you want on bodywork.

The procedure on bodywork

  • The base must be perfectly smooth, because red will bring imperfections out rather than hide them
  • A white base under the paint is practically a necessity with red
  • Apply thin coats and let the surface flash off between them
  • Gloss is achieved by polishing after full curing, not with a heavier coat

A model car is judged above all by the surface of its bodywork, so it pays to devote more time to preparing the base than to the spraying itself. A polished red is among the most striking surfaces that can be made on a model.

What to watch out for on bodywork

  • Dust that settles into fresh lacquer can no longer be removed without sanding it back
  • Keep a pause between coats, otherwise the lower layer will lift
  • Polishing is possible only after several days, not after several hours
  • A fingerprint on paint that has not dried will stay there even under the gloss

Model cars are touched by more people than in other fields, because they are often picked up. A hard, well-cured lacquer is therefore not a luxury but a condition for a model to survive in its original state.

FAQ

It contains more pigment, so fewer coats are enough for a full tone and there is no risk of flooding the fine lines of the bodywork.

With red, practically yes. Without it the paint would need many coats and would lose its saturation.

By polishing after full curing, not by applying a heavier coat.
