Upgrade Model Surfaces with a True Metallic Finish

Mr.Hobby GSI-SM08 Super Metallic Plate Silver Next produces a convincing metallic silver sheen that enhances scale detail. It works well on model kits where a lifelike metal appearance is required and is straightforward to layer for consistent results.

Why Modellers Choose This Silver Paint

The GSI-SM08 stands out for its reflective properties and dependable coverage, delivering an even metallic surface when applied correctly. It suits both newcomers refining technique and experienced modellers seeking repeatable finishes.

Simple Steps to a Smooth Metallic Finish

Start with clean, primed surfaces and apply several thin coats rather than a single heavy one. Keep the airbrush moving and allow adequate drying time to reduce texture and ensure a smooth, mirror-like result.

Will this paint chip on handling?

If applied over a suitable primer and sealed with a clear coat, the finish resists normal handling; avoid heavy abrasion to preserve the metallic surface.

What cleaners should I use before painting?

Use isopropyl alcohol or a mild detergent to remove oils and dust, then rinse and dry fully before priming and painting.

Can I achieve a weathered metal look from this base?

Yes, you can use washes, dull coats and selective chipping techniques over the silver base to simulate wear and weathering once the paint is cured.
