Ford GT Lemans Rot 16-17
Beschreibung
🏁 Get the exact tone real vehicles wear. Ford GT Lemans Red 16-17 is formulated for scale modelers who won't settle for 'close enough' when the judges — or their own eye — start looking for flaws.
Ford GT Lemans Red 16-17 represents a colour tied to Ford's competition and road-car heritage. Ford's competition colours span decades of motorsport, from the Gulf-liveried GT40s that won Le Mans outright to the factory rally and touring car schemes of the Escort and Sierra Cosworth era.
Ford GT Lemans Red 16-17 is a lacquer paint that is engineered specifically for airbrush application. Its fine micro-pigmentation is optimised for 1:18, 1:20, 1:24 and 1:43 scales, preventing heavy paint buildup over delicate body lines, engraved panel gaps and carbon-fibre weave detail. The paint comes pre-thinned and ready to spray, giving smooth atomisation straight out of the bottle.
💡 Laboratory Application Tips
- Preparation (Primer): A Pink or White Primer is highly recommended. Because red and orange pigments are naturally translucent, a bright, uniform base ensures maximum colour saturation and prevents the paint from losing its original brilliance.
- Painting Technique: Apply in thin, wet-yet-controlled coats with slightly overlapping passes. Because lacquer levels itself as it flashes off, thin layers build density without hiding fine surface detail or creating an orange-peel texture.
- Finishing: A dedicated Gloss, Satin or Matte Clearcoat, matched to the real vehicle's factory sheen, should be applied afterwards to protect the colour coat and seal any decals before final polishing.
⚠️ Chromatic Fidelity Notes
Real Scale vs. Miniature: This formula is adjusted to counter the "scale effect," so light reflection on the miniature stays proportional to the real vehicle or object rather than looking artificially pale or dark.
Visual note: Product photos are for reference only. The full three-dimensional depth and true pigment brilliance only become visible once the model is painted and properly clearcoated.
