High-Gloss Red for Hobby Projects

Mr.Hobby GSI-C158 Gloss Super Italian Red is a 10ml lacquer in the Mr.Color range, tailored for modellers who want a clean, glossy red finish. It helps deliver a bright, consistent coat on model parts and painted elements.

Best Uses and Limitations

While this paint produces a beautiful gloss on plastics and resin, it is not suitable for painting polycarbonate RC bodies. It excels on model kits, dioramas and miniature figures where lacquer adhesion and shine are desired.

Practical Painting Hints

Ensure workpieces are free from grease and dust and apply a compatible primer before using Mr.Hobby GSI-C158. Use thin, controlled layers with a brush or airbrush and allow adequate drying time between coats to prevent runs and to build a deep glossy finish.

Will this lacquer affect fine decal work?

When decals are properly set and sealed, a thin lacquer coat like GSI-C158 can protect them. Allow decals to fully dry before applying any lacquer.

Is ventilation necessary when using this paint?

Yes, work in a well ventilated area or use extraction when spraying lacquers to reduce inhalation of fumes and ensure safer working conditions.

Can beginners use Mr.Hobby GSI-C158?

Yes, beginners can use it provided they follow surface prep and thinning guidelines. Practice on spare parts to learn spray control and build confidence.
