PG104 - Smoke Black Powder Pigment

LifeColor PG104 Smoke Black Powder Pigment

A loose weathering pigment from the Powder Pigments line by the Italian maker LifeColor. It is a fine dry powder with which realistic grime is applied to models, not an opaque paint. The Smoke Black shade is intended for soot, smoke trails and staining around exhausts, muzzles, engines and burnt surfaces. The pigment can be applied dry or fixed with a medium.

Use

• Apply it dry with a soft brush where you want soot and smoke to settle.
• For permanent adhesion use a fixative, or mix it with water, thinner or a medium.
• Mixing it with paint gives thick blends for textured effects and scuffing.
• It holds best on a matte surface, and the intensity is best built up gradually.

Who it is for

For modelers of military, aviation and railroad subjects who want realistic soot and smoke staining on exposed areas.

A fine powder: do not breathe it in and do not work in a draft. A respirator and good ventilation are advised. Keep out of the reach of children.
