The AK Interactive Xtreme Metal Metallic Blue (30ml) is a lacquer-based high-performance metallic paint designed to produce a vivid, reflective blue metallic finish on scale models. It is part of the Xtreme Metal range, which is known for ultra-fine metallic pigments that create smooth, realistic metal-like surfaces suitable for aircraft, sci-fi, and custom finishes.

This colour is especially popular for fantasy schemes, sci-fi panels, custom automotive styling, and decorative aircraft liveries, where a coloured metallic sheen is desired rather than a natural metal tone.


About Xtreme Metal Metallic Blue

Metallic Blue is formulated to behave like a true metallic paint rather than a standard acrylic colour. Once airbrushed, it produces a high-gloss, reflective blue metal effect with strong coverage and a smooth finish.

It is often used where visual impact matters more than strict realism, such as:

  • sci-fi spacecraft panels

  • display models

  • custom-painted aircraft schemes

  • decorative mechanical parts


Features

✔ Lacquer-based high-performance metallic paint
✔ Bright reflective blue metallic finish
✔ Ultra-fine metallic pigment for smooth coverage
✔ Strong adhesion and durability once cured
✔ Designed for airbrush application
✔ Fast drying with high opacity
✔ Compatible with masking and weathering techniques


Skill Level

Intermediate to Advanced

Best suited for:

  • modellers comfortable with airbrushing

  • hobbyists working on advanced finishes

  • sci-fi and aircraft detail builders

A smooth, well-prepared surface (often a gloss black base) is recommended for best results.

✔ Sci-fi models and spacecraft

Application Tips

  • Apply with an airbrush in light, even coats
