KSW100 Black super gloss water-based airbrush paint ready to use

High chemical resistance

Universal gloss base for all Kustom Service metallic alcohol-based paints

KSW100 BLACK super gloss is a water-based ready to spray color for airbrush.

This color is not a primer; it is just a glossy color base.

It must be applied over a black primer if you think to mask your surface because used alone, it hasn't a good adhesion over plastics.

It is extremely shiny when compared to the products commonly present on the market.

It can be used alone as a glossy black finish or as a glossy black base if we want to have a perfect chrome color or if we want to use it as a base for all other metallic paint Kustom Series.

It is not necessary to dilute it because it is ready to use for 0.3mm nozzle airbrush.

Just if necessary, this color can be simply diluted by adding common distilled water (RECOMMEND! use distilled water only! Not other waters or thinners)

It is absolutely not recommended to dilute with our thinners or reducers of other brands. In general is not recommended dilute this paint.

AIRBRUSH

Airbrush with 0.3 nozzle. If a 0.2 is used, color must be dilute to a maximum of 5% but the color loose a part of his glossy power.

Brush: it is not possible use it by brushes.

PRESSURE

Always recommended 2 bar except when working on very small components for which a pressure of 1.5 bar can also be used

DILUTION

Use this color as it is, is not necessary dilute it but if you want dilute not to much than 5% with distilled water.

APPLICATION

First of all never try to dry it with air dryer or airbrush air, let it dry at room temperature for 12 hours.

If we force the dry time by air KSW100 black gloss will lose the shine effect.

We suggest (but it is not obligatory, and the technique may vary according to your experience):

Apply a light coat, wait 5 minutes and apply a first wet coat. After 5 minutes, apply a second wet coat and wait 12 hours for metallic paints applications.

The important thing at the end of the application is to have a mirror-like glossy effect, make many test to have the best result.

DRY TIME

If we want the maximum gloss effect never use air dryer or other air to dry this paint, let it dry alone at room temperature.

If we use air it become satin not gloss and all CHR01 or CHR03 loose their mirror effect.

12 hours for a correct touch free and best resistance to alcohol or other laquer paint

72 hours for a complete dry time.

NOTE: it can resist to laquer but it will lose his shiny effect.

Excellent but tricky

I needed something for my metallic paints and found this with the promise of being an excellent base and it is as long as you meet the right requirements. I use an iwata TRN1. This has a .35mm needle. Despite advertising that it is ready to spray out of a .3mm needle I found that I still had to dilute it a tiny bit using distilled water. However, that was it! Just a few drops of water and it flowed smoothly. Goes on black primer and dries to an excellent shiny black. I do not have the most ideal work area as a casual hobbyist but ultimately I found this easy to spray after some testing. Some other tips: Spraying over lighter primers will not go well. It definitely needs a black primer to work well. I did find a neat trick where spraying over a cream white yields a shiny brown black coat. Probably useful for some niche applications. Find the optimal thinning for this. You may or May not need to depending in your environment. Perfect for Chrome and metallic but becareful using anything other than water based acrylics. You'll lose the shine right away. If you wanna spray something else apply a clear coat over it.

A must-have for metallics

I wasn't sure what this was at first, but I'd seen it used with Kustom's metallics on a Youtube video so I picked it up along with a paint order. Essentially, this is a very high-gloss black to go underneath their metallic colors, producing a very deep contrast in the metallic paint. This could also be used as a gloss black paint by itself, as the finish is extremely smooth and consistent.
