Diamond White Bright Mercedes + BASE
Descrição
🏁 Get the exact tone real vehicles wear. Diamond White Bright Mercedes + BASE is formulated for scale modelers who won't settle for 'close enough' when the judges — or their own eye — start looking for flaws.
Diamond White Bright Mercedes + BASE represents a colour tied to Mercedes's competition and road-car heritage. Mercedes-Benz's silver competition colour traces back to the pre-war Silver Arrows, a shade adopted for weight-saving reasons that became one of the most storied liveries in motorsport history.
Diamond White Bright Mercedes + BASE 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 White Primer is recommended for this light tone, giving the pigment a clean, uniform base so the true colour reads correctly instead of appearing dull or uneven over a darker surface.
- 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.
