AK Interactive AK454 True Metal Copper Wax Paint
AK Interactive AK454 True Metal Copper is a warm copper metallic wax paint for pipes, electrical fittings, radiators, engine parts, steampunk machinery, and decorative trim. This copper model paint can be polished after curing to sharpen metallic highlights on exposed edges, raised components, and detailed hard-surface parts.
Key Features
- Warm Copper Metallic Finish: Adds convincing copper color to tubing, valves, machinery, fittings, radiators, and ornamental model details.
- Precision Detail Application: Apply the wax directly to small components where a brush-controlled metallic finish is more practical than airbrushing.
- Polishable Metallic Highlights: Buff selected exposed edges, corners, and raised parts after curing to create a brighter, polished-copper effect.
- Oxidized Copper Foundation: Use as a base for controlled dark staining and carefully placed green-blue patina effects in seams, joints, recesses, and moisture-prone areas.
Recommended Uses
AK Interactive True Metal Copper is suitable for scale models, miniature engines, pipes, electrical fittings, machinery, steampunk projects, vehicle details, industrial scenery, decorative armor trim, and other components that require a warm copper-metal finish.
Application Tips
Prime the component, then work a small amount of wax into the surface with a brush or cotton swab. Allow the paint to cure fully before lightly polishing exposed areas. Keep oxidation, dark staining, and patina effects limited to joints, recessed details, seams, and sections where moisture or age would naturally collect.
