Dark Grey Wash 35 ml

Washing is the application of a diluted paint in an area, crevice, nook or contour to define and
highlight that area. Unlike a filter, the paint is more concentrated. These techniques for defining
models and figures are easier and more effective than thinned acrylic paints, especially on large
surfaces, as they dry too quickly, can leave the dreaded rims and flow less in difficult areas due to
the surface tension of the water.
The shades of the washes are usually dark but vary depending on the sought after effect and the
color on which they are applied. In addition, these effects can be mixed and blended to obtain
customized variations according to the modeler's taste.
These types of enamel-based washes are applied on the area to be highlighted, and their
formulation allows working and modifying the area of influence and the subtlety of the effect with
the help of a clean brush or a brush dipped in Thinner.
