The signal brown Lifecolor Signalbraun Matt RAL 8002 is a warm matte shade for the youngest stage of corrosion: the first orange-brown cast on exposed metal and rust streaks running down sheet metal.
Responsibility details are not available.
Fresh rust is a different color from old rust. It is lighter, warmer and far more prominent, because it has not yet had time to gather dust or to darken. The matte shade Signalbraun with the number RAL 8002 in its designation stands for this first stage of aging metal and works on a model wherever the damage is new.
The effect of running rust is striking, but it is easy to overdo. The rule of three places is what works: a few really prominent streaks are enough on one model, and the rest only suggested. Every streak must have a source, that is a particular rivet, joint or damaged spot it comes from, and it must follow the direction in which water really runs over the surface. It is best to build the trace up in several light repetitions, so that it varies in strength along its length and is stronger at the top than at the bottom.
It suits modelers who want a legible timeline of damage on a model: light fresh rust in the places of a recent knock, darker tones where corrosion has been working longer. It also serves on its own on cargo, barrels, chains and the metal equipment of a diorama.
Keep out of the reach of children and follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.
