Noir 200 Sablé

🏁 Get the exact tone real vehicles wear. Noir 200 Sablé is formulated for scale modelers who won't settle for 'close enough' when the judges — or their own eye — start looking for flaws.

Noir 200 Sablé reproduces a textured, protective finish of the kind used on real off-road, military and industrial equipment, where a rough, grippy surface resists chipping and improves handling in the field. On a scale model it adds a tactile, non-scale-effect surface that reads convincingly as rugged, functional coating rather than a smooth paint job.

Noir 200 Sablé 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. The textured additive is pre-mixed in the bottle, so a gentle but thorough shake before use keeps the grain consistent across the whole surface.

💡 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: 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.
