About product

German Lichtblau RAL 5012 from Lifecolor

Light shades reveal soiling sooner and more mercilessly than dark ones. On a blue surface even a thin veil of dust shows as a haze, and a little more of it is enough for the surface to stop being blue. That is exactly why this light blue tone, whose name refers to RAL 5012, is worked the opposite way from olive vehicles: the grime is added in tiny steps and checked from a distance as you go.

Dust on a light ground

On a light color, soiling that has direction works best. Vertical streaks running down from the edges, bounded traces around the places that are handled, and fine dusting only where it belongs. A continuous veil over the whole surface, by contrast, makes it look as though the shade had been mixed wrong. Dried mud on a light ground calls for restraint, because the contrast here is so great that even a small patch carries a lot of attention.

Use

  • Light surfaces on which the shade itself is meant to stay legible.
  • Detailed work with running streaks and bounded traces.
  • Returning the clean tone to places where the soiling has been overdone.
  • Accessories and equipment meant to contrast with dusty surroundings.

Who it is for

For modelers who work with light shades and need to dose their soiling carefully. The shade also serves as a correction with which a clean spot can be returned to a dirtied surface.

Keep the paint out of the reach of children, ensure ventilation when spraying and protect your airways and eyes.

FAQ

The contrast is far greater here, so even a thin veil of dust shows as a haze. The soiling is therefore added in tiny steps and checked from a distance.

The kind that has direction and a boundary. Vertical streaks running down from the edges and bounded traces around exposed places, not an all-over veil across the whole surface.

Yes. When the layer of grime comes out too heavy, the clean tone brings a piece of the surface back and the surface regains its legibility.
