Product Look: Mr.Hobby GSI-WT01 Weathering Gouache

The Mr.Hobby GSI-WT01 Water-Based Weathering Paint Gouache in white is tailored for modellers seeking believable wear and faded tones. The 20ml jar gives enough for repeated detailing and varied weathering approaches.

Techniques and Suitability

This water-based gouache is suitable for creating dust layers, soft highlights and panel fading on models, miniatures and small scenery. It blends and layers predictably, so users can employ washes, feathering or stipple work as required.

Why Choose a Water-Based Gouache

Water-based products like the GSI-WT01 are simple to thin and tidy up, offering a safer handling experience compared with strong solvents. They mix readily with other water-based paints to achieve customised weathering shades.

Is this appropriate for metal and photo-etched parts?

Yes, when the metal is clean and primed, GSI-WT01 can be applied to photo-etched and metal details to add weathered highlights. Use a light primer to improve adhesion.

How do I correct mistakes made with the gouache?

While still wet, remove excess with a damp cloth or brush. For dried spots, gentle swabbing with water and a soft brush can lift some pigment before resealing.

Will varnish affect the weathering finish?

Sealing with a compatible clear coat will protect the weathered areas. Use a light touch and test on a sample to ensure the varnish does not change the look.

What is the best way to layer for gradual fading?

Apply several very thin washes, allowing each to dry before the next. This builds a natural fade and preserves fine surface detail.
