Ultracryl - Metal Steel 20ml
Fluid body, high pigment content
Thick paint does not mean more pigment. Thickness comes from rheology additives, and a heavily thickened paint often carries less colour than a fluid one. Ultracryl is built the other way around: genuinely fluid, with pigment loads above 30% in many hues. It flows off the brush, settles into detail instead of filling it, and covers in fewer coats.
Why it costs what it costs
Ultra-high opacity, with particular attention to the hues that traditionally struggle: yellow, orange and light green.
Ultra matte. Most colours sit below 3 gloss units and none exceed 5.
The widest spectrum available, using the most brilliant pigments on the market.
No toxic pigments. Every additive was challenged before it went in.
Brush and airbrush. Fluid enough to spray straight from the bottle, so there is no separate airbrush range to buy.
How to use
