Vallejo Dark Rust Wash

Dark Rust is the wash that turns clean metal into something that's clearly seen a few winters out in the weather. Vallejo Model Wash flows straight into panel lines, rivets and recesses, drying to a matt finish that pulls out detail and streaks rich, orange-brown rust exactly where water would run. Brush or airbrush it on, give it 20 minutes, and carry on painting.

Best for

• Rust streaks and corrosion on armour and vehicles
• Shading panel lines, rivets and recesses

One of the fastest ways to make a flat basecoat look like it's actually been somewhere and done something.

Instant depth and rust in a single pot. Stock up on companion wash tones and a soft brush to blend.
