How to use Shader paints effectively

• Apply in thin, controlled passes over base colors for soft shadows and transitions.
• Use darker tones like Grime, Smoke, or Shadow Brown for weathering or depth on metallic areas.
• Lighter colors such as Dust, Sand, or Light Rust can highlight raised surfaces and create faded effects.
• Combine Matt Shaders and Rail Center tones to match different materials—metal, wood, fabric, or earth tones.
• Seal with a matte or satin varnish to preserve the finish and unify tones.
