Gunze Sangyo N040 Flat Base – Mattifying Additive for Acrylic Paints 10 ml

Gunze Sangyo N040 Flat Base is a high-quality mattifying additive designed for Acrysion series acrylic paints from the Japanese manufacturer Gunze Sangyo (Mr. Hobby). This preparation allows modelers to achieve a matte or semi-matte finish, even if a given paint is only available in a glossy version. This product is dedicated to modeling applications—both for 1/72, 1/35, 1/48 scale models and others, where precise reproduction of the original is crucial.

• Capacity: 10 ml – the ideal amount for working on both details and larger model surfaces.
• Type of finish: Matte; allows you to achieve a realistic, non-reflective surface typical of military vehicles, tanks, aircraft, or soldier figures.
• Compatibility: Compatible with water-based Acrysion acrylic paints and other popular acrylics.
• Instructions for use: Mix thoroughly with paint at a proportion of 5-10%, allowing subtle control over the degree of mattness—each added portion transitions the finish from gloss, through semi-matte, up to fully matte. It is also recommended to use Acrysion Solvent thinner, though water can also be used.
• Applications: Excellent for sealing models after painting, before applying decals or weathering effects. Especially recommended for historical vehicle and figure models used in dioramas of World War II and modern conflicts.
• Materials: Plastic, resin, photo-etched parts—the additive can be successfully used on various surfaces typical for scale modeling.
