LifeColor Basic Matt, Gloss and UA Mimetic Paints

These paints come in a wide selection of colours which can all be used on plastic, vinyl, wood, cloth, resin and ceramic surfaces. The surfaces must be clean before the paints can be used on them and applied in thin coats at time. If you will be using the colours for airbrushing purposes, be sure to dilute the paints with water or LifeColor thinner first before airbrushing at a low pressure.

LifeColor Tensocrom Weathering Paints

Tensocrom is made of a solution of pigments in a special medium which can be glazed over any other paint or model to enhance its appearance or create the desired effect. The paints can be mixed or used individually to create various weathering shades. The paint can be used as it is or diluted with water, however it must be almost transparent and airbrushed at a very low pressure to ensure the best possible results.
