FAQs
Do I need to prime my model before using this paint?
No, this paint is designed with exceptional adhesion properties and can be applied directly to most surfaces, including plastic, resin, and metal.
Is this paint safe for indoor use?
Yes, because it is a non-toxic and solvent-free water-based formula, it does not produce harsh fumes, making it safer for indoor hobby spaces compared to traditional solvent paints.
Can I mix this with other paint brands?
It is generally recommended to stick to the Gaahleri Kaleido ColorWorks line for consistent performance, though it is compatible with most water-based acrylic mediums.
What is the best way to clean my airbrush after using this paint?
Use a standard airbrush cleaner or a mix of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol to flush the airbrush until the spray runs clear.
Is this paint suitable for fabric painting?
Yes, it is designed to adhere to fabric, though testing on a scrap piece of the same material is always recommended to ensure the desired flexibility and finish.
Troubleshooting
Paint is clogging the airbrush nozzle
Ensure the airbrush is flushed immediately after use. If clogging persists, use a needle-friendly airbrush cleaner to clear the tip.
Paint is not adhering to a specific surface
Ensure the surface is free of oils, grease, or dust. While the paint is versatile, cleaning the substrate with isopropyl alcohol before application improves results.
Flow is inconsistent or spitting
Check your air pressure settings. If spitting occurs, the paint may be too thick; try adding a small amount of high-quality airbrush thinner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This paint is designed to be used straight from the bottle, but can be further diluted if a thinner consistency is required for specific airbrush needle sizes. It is compatible with all standard gravity-feed and siphon-feed airbrushes. For care, it is imperative to flush the airbrush with an appropriate airbrush cleaner or distilled water immediately after use. Since the paint dries to a durable, glossy finish, allowing it to dry inside the airbrush needle or nozzle may cause permanent clogging that is difficult to reverse. Always store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the formula.
