This brand from Brazil does not export this paints.

I already saw some modellers from Brazil painting their models and is amazing the quality of the metallic paints. Other amazing thing: they have about 10 different basic paints in total. With this colours we can achieve all the Federal Standard colours more than 600!

To achieve color FS10032 just mix 4 drops of black, 20 of red and 10 of green. Easy no?

I wish to put the hands on it!

De todos modos, podemos probar con la pintura Spaz. Esa si que la venden en Europa:

Yo estoy dispuesto a comprarla, además, al aplicarle FUTURE, apenas varía el efecto cromado.


Un saludo

I have not managed to translate correctly the answer . If there is anyone in the forum is capable of properly translating Japanese text, I would be very grateful.
However, there is a product that could be a midpoint between the Alclad II and KosutteGinSan:


Apparently, the SPAZ paint provides a good effect:

I tried Mirror Chrome with a fairly descent result. Among all chrome paints, Mirror Chrome does seem to have better reflection than others. But it all depends on how the base surface is prepared, and you have to have a mirror-like gloss black surface before applying Mirror Chrome, or the effect won't be that good. This also applies to Gin-sun.

Thank you very much Hiroaki for the translation. Regarding what you mentioned about the mirror effect finish, actually, it depends on the surface finish. As the surface is more shiny and smooth, the result will be better. Regardless of the product we use.

King regards!

Get it while it's still in stock... or risk waiting months and months again.

[racer93]

[leafs004]

I'd also like to give this stuff from house of kolor a try. http://www.coastairbrush.com/products.asp?cat=250

It's not cheap, but looks pretty good.

[koksik]

In total I have 3 packs, just in case if will be out of stock again.. I was waiting for this powder about 7 months...

Is chrome the only effect you can get with the product? Or can you get a gold chrome or copper type finish?
