The Modelcolor
range contains 208 colors and an extensive assortment of mediums and varnishes,
designed especially for Miniature and Modelpainting. The colors have been
chosen with the help and advice of the best model painters from many countries.
Those colors which have corresponding Federal Standard, Ral and RLM equivalencies
are so identified.
Modelcolor has been formulated with permanent pigments for fine arts;
all colors are completely lightfast and opaque, (with the exception of
the fluorescent and transparent colors, which are semi-opaque). A few
metallic pigments (in an alcohol base) are included in the range, since
these give a harder brilliance than the waterbased metallics.
The waterbased formula of Modelcolor has been specifically developed for
adherence on difficult surfaces such as metal and plastic, but the product
is not toxic, not flammable, and does not give off noxious fumes. Errors
can be corrected immediately with water or alcohol Modelcolor dries quickly
to a matte, even and waterproof finish. Exact drying time depends on the
temperature and humidity of the environment, on the surface which has
been painted, and on the thickness of the paint layer - although the colors
are dry to the touch within minutes, the water content keeps on evaporating,
and the paint does not acquire its true permanence until several weeks
after application.
