Frequently asked questions

When do I use Dark Grey and when Steel Shadow?
Dark Grey is more neutral and greyer, Steel Shadow bluer. Use Dark Grey for technical surfaces and Steel Shadow for non-metallic steel.

Can I use it as the base for a black figure?
Yes, and it is the better choice over black. On Dark Grey you can see what you are doing, and highlighting is a step easier.

How do I thin this paint?
With water or an Ionic thinner. The formula is self-hydrating, so it stays workable on the palette far longer than ordinary acrylics – a drop is enough for brush work, and roughly 1 : 1 for airbrush.

Is the finish really matt?
Yes, it dries matt with no shiny patches. If the figure is going on the gaming table, seal it with a matt varnish at the end.

The full range is in the Ionic Smart Colors category.
