Metalizer paint

[Eyeball Kid]

I really like the Model Master Metalizer paints, but since I've always preferred other paint manufacturers over Testors, I was wondering if anybody else made a similar product. These work pretty well, but if somebody else offered an even better metalizer I'd love to try it.

Thanks.

GSI Creos (formerly Gunze Sangyo) Mr Color Super Metallic and Alclad II are the best around at the moment IMHO.

I don't know why don't you like Testors, I agree with Phil for very shiny things (like chrome or gold) there is no replacement for Alclad, but for burned metal, magnezium, steel I think that Testors is more then good. But only my opinion since I like Testors :-)

Since I can't get Testors I use HUmbrol metalcote. These are buffing metallics that work great, but only have a few shades, Polished Steel, Aluminium and Gunmetal.

hi just wondering where can i get alclad paint and the gunze sangyo metalizer? thanks

I buy GSI Creos (Gunze Sangyo) paint from Rainbow 10, an online store located in Japan. Alclad II is easier to find, a lot of hobby shops carry it, even in the small country town I live in. Dunno of any online stores off the top of my head.

I DO like the Testor's metalizers, but in my past experience with paints, I've found other brands to be superior to Testor's. So I figured the Testor's Metalizers ranked similarly when compared to other brands.

Testor's makes okay paint, I just prefer others.

Thanks for the answers everybody!

Metalizer is the only Testors product I use. It's awesome IMO.
