Chrome Blue Ford
Descrição
🏁 Get the exact tone real vehicles wear. Chrome Blue Ford is formulated for scale modelers who won't settle for 'close enough' when the judges — or their own eye — start looking for flaws.
Chrome Blue Ford 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.
Chrome Blue Ford is an acrylic paint that is water-based and formulated for brush and airbrush use alike. Its pigment grind is tuned for 1:24 to 1:72 scale kits and 1:32/1:35 figures, giving smooth coverage without swamping raised detail, and it cleans up with water rather than solvents.
💡 Laboratory Application Tips
- Preparation (Primer): A Black or dark Grey Primer is recommended for metallics: a dark base deepens the metal flake and gives the finish the same three-dimensional depth seen on the real vehicle, rather than a flat, chalky sheen.
- Painting Technique: Thin slightly with water or acrylic thinner and apply in several light passes rather than one heavy coat; acrylics dry fast, so overlapping strokes should be kept light to avoid lifting the layer underneath.
- Finishing: Seal the finished colour with an acrylic-compatible Gloss, Satin or Matte varnish once fully cured, to protect the surface and even out the sheen before weathering or decals.
⚠️ 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.
