AK Interactive AK480 Xtreme Metal Dark Aluminium Paint

AK Interactive AK480 Xtreme Metal Dark Aluminium is a deeper dark aluminium model paint for aircraft panel variation, machinery, engine compartments, weapon parts, and worn hard-surface components. This Xtreme Metal Dark Aluminium shade adds realistic contrast beside lighter metallic colors without making the model surface appear like flat black metal.

Key Features

• Deeper Aluminium Metallic Tone: Paint access hatches, service panels, control surfaces, mechanical recesses, engine areas, weapon parts, and darker exposed-metal components.
• Natural-Metal Panel Variation: Pair with White Aluminium, Aluminium, Duraluminium, and Polished Aluminium to create more realistic tonal contrast across aircraft, vehicles, and hard-surface projects.
• Controlled Dark Metallic Contrast: Adds depth to selected areas while retaining a visible metallic appearance distinct from black interiors, rubber parts, and deep shadows.
• Detail-Friendly Coverage: Build thin, controlled coats to help retain rivets, panel lines, vents, seams, and engraved surface details.

Recommended Uses

AK Interactive Xtreme Metal Dark Aluminium is suitable for scale-model aircraft, natural-metal aircraft finishes, engine compartments, mechanical fittings, vehicle panels, miniature weapons, machinery, industrial scenery, spacecraft, and sci-fi hard-surface projects that need a deeper aluminium finish.

Application Tips

Use Dark Aluminium on selected panels, access hatches, recessed mechanical areas, and shadowed components rather than across the entire model. Apply light, even passes over a clean prepared surface so the color remains subtle and reads as believable tonal variation beside brighter metal finishes.
