Vallejo Model Wash 76501 White Wash (35ml)

Model Washes are liquid, transparent colors designed specifically for creating weathering effects on a wide array of models including armor, vehicles, planes, ships, figures, war game miniatures, and dioramas. These effects mimic the natural processes of exposure to elements such as sun, wind, dust, rain, and snow, which gradually alter colors, diminish intensity, and induce a general fading and dulling effect.

For model painters, replicating these nuanced changes in color can be exceptionally challenging. Model Washes provide an ideal solution to achieve realistic weathering effects. They can be effortlessly mixed to produce various shades and tones, catering to specific modeling needs and desired effects. Whether applied with an airbrush or brush, Model Washes adapt to different surfaces and modeling techniques.

One of the primary applications of Model Washes is blending camouflage colors seamlessly with a model's base colors. Moreover, they can be combined with pigments to achieve diverse effects such as oil stains, rust streaks, mud splatters, earth deposits, dust layers, and mossy textures.

Model Washes are formulated with a modified acrylic resin, ensuring that they exhibit surface tension characteristics similar to traditional solvent-based washes. However, they offer the distinct advantage of being water-based, which simplifies cleaning of painting tools with just water. The average drying time for Model Washes is approximately 20 minutes, making them efficient for modeling projects. For optimal results when applying multiple layers of wash, allowing about 40 minutes between applications is recommended.

Each bottle of Model Wash contains 35 ml (1.18 fl.oz.) and features a convenient flip-top cap for easy dispensing and storage. They are available in packaging boxes containing six units, ensuring both practicality and convenience for modelers and hobbyists alike.

In summary, Model Washes represent an indispensable tool for model painters seeking to achieve lifelike weathering effects with precision and ease. Their versatility in blending colors, compatibility with various application techniques, and water-based formulation make them a preferred choice among modeling enthusiasts worldwide.
