AK Interactive AK2033 Aircraft Engine Wash (35 ml) is a ready-to-use enamel wash with good flow that highlights seams, rivets, welds, panels, and other recessed details. This specific shade is designed for aircraft engines and their intricate mechanical parts. The wash highlights cylinder fins, piping, screws, and other structural details of the engine, adding depth to the model.
The wash is not a covering paint. Its thin consistency allows it to flow into recesses, where it creates shadows and visually separates individual structural elements. The intensity can be controlled by the amount of product applied and by subsequent cleaning of the surface.
Recommended Procedure
- Shake the bottle thoroughly to ensure the pigment is evenly mixed.
- Apply to a completely dry, painted or varnished surface. A smooth satin or glossy varnish will facilitate precise seepage into the seams; for unfamiliar combinations, first test compatibility on a hidden area.
- Using a medium-sized round brush, apply the wash around details, into joints, and into recesses. For a precise pin wash, use a fine, pointed brush.
- Let the product dry for about 15 minutes. Remove excess with a clean brush lightly dampened with White Spirit or a milder, odorless thinner.
- Repeat the cleaning process until only the desired shadow remains around the details. Allow the layer to dry thoroughly before applying any further enamel effects.
Practical tip: Remove excess from raised edges and leave it in recesses; add oil stains and fuel leaks as separate effects.
Use AK Interactive White Spirit 35 ml for touch-ups and to remove excess paint. AK Interactive Odorless Thinner 35 ml is suitable for smoother and less aggressive blending.
