Synonymous with quality, the iconic enamel paint tin from Humbrol is recognisable the world over. Around for almost 100 years, originally developed in a range of 12 colours for refreshing paint coats on cycles, it has since gone on to be an industry standard for hobbyist & professional model makers alike.
These individual 14ml tins of versatile, solvent-based, fast-drying paints were developed in the 1950s & have since become a staple in any modelling environment. Although known primarily for use on plastic model kits, they're suitable for a wide range of surfaces including other plastic, wood, glass, ceramics, metal & more.
Available in a broad variety of colours & finishes including metallic, gloss & matte with each 14ml tin covering approximately 0.3m² (dependent on thickness of application).
Application
Best applied in thin coats, enamel paints can be applied directly from the tin, or diluted with a suitable medium such as Humbrol Enamel Thinners.
If using the thinner, it's important to note that the ratio is 2:1 paint to thinner.
Drying time
Gloss: 1-2hrs
Matte & Satin: 20-40mins (touch dry) / Up to 24hrs (hard dry)

Ambient temperature & humidity can affect drying times.
