AK Enamel Effects Light Dust Deposit (35 ml)
AK Interactive AK4062 Light Dust Deposit (35 ml) is a textured enamel modeling effect designed to simulate pale dust settled around wheels, track links, the undercarriage, body details, on bases, and in diorama terrain. Appearance: a light, dry dust deposit. The textured formula mimics dust accumulated at scale and allows you to create more pronounced deposits than a standard wash. Volume: 35 ml.
AK Interactive AK4062 Light Dust Deposit (35 ml) Creates a light, dry dust coating and is designed to depict pale dust settled around wheels, track links, the undercarriage, body details, on bases, and in diorama terrain. Higher concentrations and textures are intended for accumulated deposits, not just for shading details. The textured formula mimics dust accumulated at scale and allows you to create more pronounced deposits than a standard wash.
Recommended Procedure
- Shake the bottle thoroughly. Work on a dry, clean, and fully cured painted or varnished surface.
- Using a small brush with stiffer bristles, apply the product directly from the bottle only to areas where grime naturally accumulates. Use a dabbing motion to create an irregular texture.
- For a finer dust effect, dilute the product on a palette and spread it out. For thicker applications, leave it undiluted around wheels, track links, the undercarriage, terrain edges, and details.
- Combine several earthy shades and vary their density. A uniform layer over the entire model would look unnatural.
- Clean up the edges and excess with a clean brush lightly dampened with White Spirit or Odorless Thinner. Leave part of the texture sharp and part blending smoothly into the surrounding area.
- Build up the effect in several localized layers. Add another shade or layer only after the previous one has dried.
- Allow the layer to dry thoroughly before applying a topcoat or another enamel effect.
Use AK Interactive White Spirit 35 ml for thinning, softening edges, and removing excess paint. AK Interactive Odorless Thinner 35 ml is suitable for finer work and reduced odor.
