How to Use

Using SMS Auto Colour paint is straightforward. Shake the bottle well to evenly distribute pigments, then pour directly into your airbrush. Apply light, controlled coats, allowing each layer to dry before adding the next. This helps build depth and achieve a realistic metallic finish.

For best results, avoid heavy passes. Thin, even layers will produce a smoother surface and better final appearance.

Painting Tips

Good airbrushing technique makes a big difference. Build colour gradually and maintain consistent movement while spraying. Avoid overloading the surface, as this can cause runs or uneven textures. With patience and practice, you’ll achieve a clean, professional finish.
