APPLICATION GUIDE-PLASTIC MODELS:
For use on injection plastic kits a primer is necessary. ‘Regular ALCLAD’ is similar in strength to lacquer/cellulose car paints-injected polystyrene plastics frequently have areas which ALCLAD can craze. High-Shine ALCLAD finishes require a glossy base coat.
Apply one of these primers before using Regular ALCLAD:
Alclad ALC-302 GREY PRIMER
Alclad ALC-306 WHITE PRIMER & MICROFILLER
Alclad ALC-309 BLACK PRIMER & MICROFILLER
Tamiya or Gunze Sangyo plastic primers
Auto Primer-white or grey
Plastic primers and auto primers should be lightly polished with 1000/1200 wet & dry paper to give a less absorbent smooth surface.
PREPARATION AND SPRAYING
The surfaces to be painted must be thoroughly clean and free from dust,grease,oil and finger marks.
Apply the correct primer for the type of Alclad being used.
ALCLAD should be sprayed at 12-15psi. Spray from a distance of 2-3 inches from the surface being painted using a narrow to medium width spray fan. Use the airbrush like a paint brush-aim to cover the model in a methodical manner.
Buffing is not necessary-tonal variation can be made by polishing selected panels with Micromesh.
REGULAR ALCLAD can be masked over and painted. Decal solutions can be used with REGULAR ALCLAD, but are not recommended for HIGH SHINE ALCLAD

This paint has a realistic metallic look. I recommend Alclad II paint for that reason and also the paint is ready to use no mess with paint mixing.
Great product as pr usual, color matched the photo exactly, and was exactly what I was looking for
This color is a must have if you want a natural looking gold. As it is pre-thinned, it is extremely easy to use as you can put it directly into your airbrush and start painting right away. I would recommend spraying it over the gloss black base from Alclad as it is easily my favorite base coat to use for the majority of my projects and really gives it depth. That being said it can also be used on bare plastic, but it will come out more dull.
