FAQs
Can I use this paint on any surface?
While compatible with most model plastic and resin surfaces, test on a small area first to ensure compatibility.
Do I need a primer?
Yes, priming your model before applying the basecoat is recommended for better paint adhesion.
How many coats of paint should I apply?
Apply several thin coats until the desired color shift is achieved and the basecoat is no longer visible.
What kind of thinner should I use?
The product information does not specify what thinner is required for this product.
Can I apply a varnish?
Yes, allow the paint to dry completely before applying a varnish for protection.
What happens if I apply too much paint?
Applying too much paint at once can result in a pooling effect and obscure details. Always apply thin layers.
How should I clean my airbrush after use?
Clean your airbrush thoroughly with appropriate cleaner after each use.
Troubleshooting
Color shift effect is weak.
Ensure a proper gloss black basecoat is applied. Apply additional thin coats of the Celestial Azure paint.

Shake the paint thoroughly before use. If airbrushing, ensure the paint is thinned properly and the airbrush is clean.
