Product Information
Full details
The AK Interactive Wash for Panzer Grey (AK00070) is an essential tool for scale modelers looking to enhance the realism of vehicles painted in Panzer Grey or neutral gray tones. Ideal for historical, fantasy, and sci-fi enthusiasts, this enamel-based product excels at accentuating panel lines, rivets, and hatches to create instant depth; however, it requires the use of enamel thinner for clean-up and proper ventilation during application.

FAQs
Do I need to thin this product before using?
No, it is formulated as a 'ready-to-use' wash, but you can thin it further with enamel thinner if you prefer a lighter effect.
Can I use this over water-based acrylic paints?
Yes, but you must apply a gloss or satin acrylic varnish over your paint job first to protect the acrylic layer from the enamel thinner.
How long should I wait before cleaning the excess?
Wait until the wash is matte and dry to the touch, usually 15 to 30 minutes, before attempting to remove or blend it.
Is this safe to use on plastic models?
Yes, it is perfectly safe for standard polystyrene plastic models when used as directed.
Can I use this on colors other than gray?
While intended for Panzer Grey, it can be used on other dark colors to create subtle, muted shadows.
Troubleshooting
The wash is staining the flat surfaces of my model.
Apply a gloss or satin varnish to the model before using the wash to create a slick surface.
The pigments look clumpy or separated.
Shake the bottle thoroughly for a longer period until the mixture appears uniform.
I accidentally removed too much wash during cleanup.
Allow the area to dry completely and re-apply a small amount of the wash directly into the recess.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your model is fully painted and sealed with a protective varnish before application. Never apply enamel washes directly over matte acrylics without a gloss or satin barrier, as the wash may stain the base paint. Shake the bottle vigorously for at least 30 seconds before use to ensure the pigments are properly suspended. After use, ensure the cap is tightened firmly to prevent evaporation of the enamel carrier. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct heat sources to maintain the shelf life of the pigments.
