Mr.Hobby GSI-H8 Silver Gloss Product Brief

The Mr.Hobby GSI-H8 Silver Gloss is supplied in a 10ml bottle and forms part of the Gunze Aqueous Hobby Color series, offering straightforward handling and reliable metallic coverage. It is tailored for modelmakers needing a bright, polished look.

Suitable Applications

This silver gloss is ideal on plastic model kits, trim pieces and detail work where a reflective surface is desired. Being water-based, it is simple to thin and clean, and it keeps fumes to a low level during use.

Practical Painting Advice

Shake well before use to ensure colour consistency throughout the bottle.
Apply several light coats for a consistent glossy finish and avoid heavy single layers.
For fine detailing, use a steady hand with a fine brush or dilute slightly for airbrush work.

Will Mr.Hobby GSI-H8 adhere to previously painted surfaces?

Yes, it will adhere but light sanding and cleaning of the existing finish will improve results and help prevent flaking.

Can I use this paint straight from the bottle with an airbrush?

You will usually need to thin it slightly for airbrushing; start with small amounts of water or an acrylic reducer and test spray to find the right flow.

Is it compatible with enamel topcoats?

Compatibility varies; if you plan to use enamel topcoats, test on a sample first and consider a suitable barrier coat to avoid adverse reactions.

How can I restore a partially dried bottle?

If skin has formed, remove it carefully and add a few drops of water, then shake well; for severely thickened paint replacement may be necessary.
