S081 Russet - (Gloss) Spray

Gunze Mr.Color Spray S081 Russet (Gloss)

A modeling spray from the lacquer Mr.Color range by the Japanese brand Gunze. The Russet shade is a rust to chestnut brown – a warm, earthy and very versatile color with a gloss finish. It is an aerosol meant for spraying straight from the can, without an airbrush and a compressor. Watch out: it is not an acrylic – it is a solvent-borne lacquer with a different chemistry than paints thinnable with water.

Use

• shake the can thoroughly before and during the work
• spray in several thin coats from a distance of roughly 25 cm
• work in warm, dry conditions for a smooth, even surface
• ideal for leather, saddles, boots, straps and equipment, for rust and weathered metal, brown wood and for the horses and animals of figures
• the lacquer attacks bare plastic – on sensitive parts consider a primer

Who it is for

For modelers of figures, dioramas and vehicles who need a dependable brown base color. A gloss surface takes decals well and is suitable as a base for subsequent weathering with washes and pigments.

Safety: a lacquer aerosol is highly flammable and the vapors are harmful to health. Work in a well-ventilated space or outdoors, use a respirator, away from open flame and sources of sparks. Keep out of the reach of children.
