TRUE METAL SILVER - AK Interactive AK458

TRUE METAL SILVER is a metal wax-based paint offered by AK Interactive under reference AK458. Its silver shade is intended for painting and finishing static model kits, figures, miniatures, and diorama elements that require a metallic look.

Formulated with high-quality pigments, this paint from the True Metal range makes it possible to work on metal surfaces with precise application. It can be applied with a brush, with your finger, or using a cotton swab. Thinned with white spirit, it can also be used with an airbrush to obtain a fine coat.

After drying, the surface can be polished to enhance the metallic appearance. This option is particularly useful for varying the visual intensity of panels, mechanical parts, accessories, weaponry, vehicle bodies, or metallic details on a model.

Model making application

Proper preparation of the parts helps achieve a consistent result. Applying it in small amounts helps preserve reliefs and engraved details. Working with a brush or a cotton swab also makes it easy to target edges, areas of friction, and added-on elements.

For a static model project, it is useful to plan the appropriate basic products for assembly and finishing: brushes, an airbrush if needed, a compatible thinner, a paint palette/holder, and protective materials for the work area.
