3.1 Prekosyon sekirite
- Travay nan yon zòn ki byen ayere pou evite respire lafimen.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and a respirator, especially when airbrushing.
- Kenbe lwen timoun ak bèt kay.
- Evite kontak ak po ak je yo. Si pwodwi a antre an kontak ak je yo, rense l imedyatman avèk anpil dlo epi chèche konsèy medikal si iritasyon an pèsiste.
3.2 Preparasyon Sifas
Ensure the model surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or other contaminants. A properly prepared surface will ensure optimal adhesion and finish of the pigment.
3.3 Dilisyon
This liquid pigment can be diluted with enamel thinner. The dilution ratio depends on the desired effect and application method (brush or airbrush). Start with a small amount of thinner and gradually add more until the desired consistency is achieved. For airbrushing, a thinner consistency is generally required.
4. Enstriksyon Operasyon (Aplikasyon)
4.1 Shaking the Bottle
Before each use, shake the bottle thoroughly to ensure the pigment is uniformly mixed. Pigments can settle over time, and proper mixing is crucial for consistent color and performance.
4.2 Metòd Aplikasyon
- Brush Application: Apply the pigment directly or diluted with a brush to create weathering effects, streaks, or dirt accumulation. Use a fine brush for precise details and a broader brush for larger areas.
- Airbrush Application: For airbrushing, dilute the pigment with enamel thinner to a milk-like consistency. Apply in thin, even coats to build up the desired effect. Maintain a consistent distance and pressure for smooth coverage.
4.3 Drying Time and Finish
The pigment is self-fixing and dries to a matt finish. Drying time can vary depending on humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the applied layer. Allow sufficient time for each layer to dry before applying subsequent coats or handling the model. Typically, touch-dry in minutes, fully cured in hours.

5. Antretyen
5.1 Netwayaj Zouti
Immediately after use, clean brushes and airbrushes with enamel thinner or a dedicated cleaner suitable for enamel paints. Do not allow the pigment to dry on tools, as it can be difficult to remove.
5.2 Depo
Store the pigment bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent drying and contamination. Proper storage helps maintain the pigment's quality and extends its shelf life.
NAN. Depanaj
- Aplikasyon inegal: Ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared. Adjust dilution ratio and application technique (e.g., thinner coats for airbrushing, even brush strokes).
- Clogging (Airbrush): This often indicates insufficient dilution or dried pigment in the nozzle. Clean the airbrush thoroughly and ensure proper dilution before use.
- Pigment Drying Too Fast: Work in smaller sections or consider slightly increasing dilution. High temperatures or low humidity can accelerate drying.
- Pòv adezyon: Ensure the surface is free of oils, dust, and other residues. A primer might be necessary for certain materials.
