Hi, so with the email color you just use the color normally and when you done you dip the brush in the color mix? Aren't you supposed to mix them together?
Br cautious when using the (supposedly) equivalent colours with Humbrol & REVELL. They are Not an exact match. If you are using (let's say) TAN, in one Brand, but you run out of it, and have to purchase the Other Brand, you'll end up with almost a Two-Tone Finish.
Sounds good guys. With Testor's paints disappearing due to the Rustoleium take-over, I will have to start bringing in an alternative. This might be the way to go.
@Brysen Isaias Ah...this must be the new Spam for the month? I was wondering when it would come out! - Another guy posted the same thing on another one of my posts.
@@MonsterHobbiesModelCarGarage its not a spam its quite true what he is saying. Also xtracolor enamel are in similar tins like Revell and Humbrol. Tamiya enamel is wery good and come in similar jars to Testors.
@@statoilbensin2190 If you look above, I am saying "Is this the Spam for the month" to Brysen Isaias. I see that he removed the comment since then. - I also don't remember what Brysen Isaias even said. Must have been a whopper! :D
Enamel based will hold wery well outside as long as its fully dried and cured. I would still apply revell clear over to protect the enamel paint further.
You need to prime and thinn the paint. Also you need to spray or brush it in a room with relatively low dust in the air because you dont want dust in youre paint.
You can use either mineral turpentine (white spirit) or water based turps. Not sure if water based turps will work in an airbrush though, if that is what you mean.
You Broke The NUMBER 1 Rule! NEVER Shake Tinlets or Cans of Paint! ..... Not only does it not Mix the Paint Properly, but it Creates Bubbles! You need to STIR Thouroughly! Shaking Spray Cans is a different situation, as they have a small metal ball in them to act like a Paint Stirrer: However, you must Shake Them Up & Down Vigourously for at least One Minute, before, and during application. DO NOT 'Rattle' them from Side to Side.
@@statoilbensin2190 ... Yes, I've since found out that it's okay with a Mixing Ball in it, because Spray Cans work that way. Usually though, it can often cause Bubbles in the Paint. However, I've been informed by a Supplier, that the Mixing Balls are really only for Water Based Paints, when used in Cans.
@@nevillemadden394 Well, Mr hobby and Ak interactive sell mixing balls and they both sell solvent based paint. Mr hobby has Aqueous and Mr color and Ak has their Real colors. However I have used army painters mixing balls almost only on solvent based paints. I guess their not meant for it since wargaming paint is never solvent based (unless its aersol sprays). I have never had a problem with any interactions. A mixing ball in water based paint might start to rust but most of the model kit paints that are water soluable are actually vinyl based and I belive that is why they can have metal pigments in them without starting to rust. But Humbrol enamel is often too thick for a mixing ball anyways. But I use to have some thinner in them so they get thinner. I like to use lacquer thinner from Tamiya but for matt and satin the paint will dry too fast so I paint from the tin instead with some lacquer thinner in it.
Very clear explanation. Thank you!

Thank you for the paint 🎨 introduction. I saw a submarine in the background, what kit is that? 🤩
It’s a U-Boat. I don’t remember which kit though.
I got a revel fast and furious car but might be using a different kind of paint.
This is great Almost like the old Humbrol paints. Will you be selling these?

It's the same as humbrol tbh if you are used to humbrol type enamel...you be fine with this

@@vasili1207 only an idition would use humbrol
Revell is pretty bad too, so are their kits
Can i use this enamel paint to paint bumper of my car in black with sponge brush ?
Will it last ? Is primer needed please ?
i dont think so
What cowboy figure is that?
Can I use normal thinner or turpentine to thin enamel paint?
Either would work
I would use lacquer thinner it makes it dry faster. I would recomend a plastic friendly one that wont melt it. Like Tamiya.
@@statoilbensin2190 Tamiya still dissolves plastic, just less
Which country are the products made?
Germany
Can these paints be used for models used outdoors ?
The enamel paints might hold up okay outdoors.
Enamel based will hold wery well outside as long as its fully dried and cured. I would still apply revell clear over to protect the enamel paint further.
Jack from Bachmann got himself a side gig lol.
Jack doesn't work for Bachmann anymore
The aqua color is not airbrush ready. It needs thinned.
Totally agree some need so much mixing too
Im painting a ju 88 with email green and its horrible please help me

Define "horrible". What seems to be the problem? I'm brush painting a P51-D with Revell enamels and they work great for brush painting.
Im using revell paints, the ones in the silver cans enamel. How i must clean the brushes and my hands? Wich product i must use?

Youse nitril gloves and thin with Tamiya lacquer thinner or Mr color thinner. Use extraction fan or a well ventilated area and a respirator.
The only sad thing is their customers service never woth a penny . No replacement concerned a defective tiny can of paint ,they prefer lost me ?
They sent me grey instead antrizit matt and grey have a lot of water

I do that with humbrol enamels with a shake ball in it and I got no problems.
