Humbrol Modelcote Gloss Cote (28ml) AC5501
Humbrol Modelcote Gloss Cote (AC5501) is a high-quality, solvent-based varnish designed to provide a durable, high-sheen finish to your scale models and miniatures. Supplied in a 28ml glass bottle, this clear varnish is ideal for sealing painted surfaces, enhancing colour depth, and preparing models for decal application.
Unlike traditional varnishes that may yellow over time, Modelcote Gloss Cote dries to a crystal-clear finish, preserving the integrity of your model’s colours and details. Its glossy sheen not only adds a realistic touch to your models but also serves as an excellent base for decals, ensuring better adhesion and reducing the risk of silvering.
Application is straightforward—use a brush for precise control or an airbrush for a smoother, more even coat. When airbrushing, thin the varnish with Humbrol Enamel Thinners to achieve the desired consistency. The varnish is touch-dry in approximately one hour and fully cures within 24 hours, depending on ambient temperature and humidity.
