FAQs

Can I use this paint on materials other than plastic?

Yes, Jokaero Orange is formulated to adhere effectively to plastic, metal, and resin miniatures.

Do I need to thin this paint?

While it can be used directly from the pot for base coating, thinning it with a little water can help achieve smoother transitions and finer detail.

Is this paint toxic?

No, it is a non-toxic, water-based acrylic paint.

Should I use a primer before applying this paint?

Yes, applying a primer ensures that the paint adheres securely to the surface of the miniature and provides a uniform base color.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Because it is a water-based acrylic, you can easily clean your brushes with warm water and mild soap.

Is this a metallic paint?

No, Jokaero Orange is a matte base paint and does not contain metallic pigments.

Troubleshooting

Paint appears thick and streaky during application.

Add a tiny amount of water to the paint on a palette to thin it down to a milk-like consistency.

The paint color is uneven or separated in the pot.

Shake the pot vigorously for at least 30 seconds or stir with a dedicated mixing tool until the color is uniform.

The paint has dried on the rim of the pot.

Clean the dried paint from the rim with a damp cloth to ensure the lid forms an airtight seal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent opacity for quick base coating
  • Dries to a clean, smooth matte finish
  • Compatible with a wide range of model materials
  • Non-toxic and water-soluble for easy cleanup

Cons

  • High pigment density can be thick, requiring thinning for detail work
  • Limited to a 12ml volume, which may run out quickly for large vehicles
  • Requires proper agitation to ensure pigment is evenly mixed

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before use, ensure your miniature is cleaned of any mold lines and primed with an appropriate spray undercoat. Always shake the pot thoroughly before opening to redistribute the pigments that may settle during storage. To maintain the life of the paint, ensure the lid is snapped shut securely after every session to prevent drying. If you notice the paint thickening, add a drop of clean water or professional-grade acrylic medium. Avoid mixing the paint directly inside the pot; instead, transfer a small amount to a palette to keep the contents uncontaminated.
