Cioccollato Ferrari Leather - 400ml
Description
🚗 Colour accuracy sells builds. Cioccollato Ferrari Leather - 400ml reproduces the real-world tone with the pigment density and coverage scale modelers rely on for a factory-fresh result, first coat to last.
Cioccollato Ferrari Leather is formulated for interior and cockpit detailing, where finishes are typically flatter and less saturated than exterior bodywork to avoid glare and to match the real fabrics, plastics and leathers used inside a vehicle's cabin. Ferrari's competition cars have carried a shade of red since the international racing colour convention of the early 20th century assigned red to Italy, a tradition Maranello has guarded and refined ever since across F1, GT and road-car liveries.
Cioccollato Ferrari Leather is an aerosol spray paint that is supplied ready-to-use in a pressurised can, formulated for even coverage across larger surfaces. It suits 1:8, 1:10 and 1:12 R/C bodies and larger static models, as well as full-size hobby and DIY respray work where a fine airbrush cartridge would run out too quickly.
💡 Laboratory Application Tips
- Preparation (Primer): A neutral Grey Primer is recommended as a safe, all-purpose base that preserves the true tone and opacity of this colour without biasing it warmer or cooler.
- Painting Technique: Shake the can thoroughly for at least a minute, then spray in light, even passes from roughly 20-30cm, keeping the can moving to avoid pooling. Several thin coats give better coverage and a smoother finish than one heavy pass.
- Finishing: Allow full curing time between coats and before clearcoating; aerosol lacquers can stay workable for longer than airbrushed paint, so patience at this stage avoids solvent wrinkling later.
⚠️ 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.
