Technical Information and Recommendations

• Type: Fine powdered pigment for model weathering
• Volume: 35 ml
• Use: Dust, earth, rust, soot, smoke, leaves, weathering, terrain, and dioramas
• Dry Application: Brush, dabbing, rubbing into the surface, and gradual layering
• Wet Application: Mix with Pigment Binder 26233 or a small amount of water according to the desired consistency
• Surface: Appears most natural on a matte or slightly satin surface

Work with pigments gradually and in small amounts. Dry application is well-suited for subtle dusting and unifying the surface, while wet application is for thicker layers of mud, earth, or deposits. Before final fixation, it is advisable to test the result in an inconspicuous area, as varnish and fixer can optically darken the pigment.
