GSI-C306 from Mr.Hobby for scale kit finishing

Achieving a realistic surface on miniatures and kits relies on the correct paint type. Mr.Hobby GSI-C306 Semi-gloss Gray FS36270 is supplied in 10ml and is formulated as a lacquer for model kits, giving a mid-sheen finish that flatters intricate detailing. It is not recommended for painting polycarbonate RC car bodies.

Suitability and looks

The neutral semi-gloss tone is a flexible choice for military models, airplanes and other scaled builds. It enhances depth without masking fine sculpted features, and the compact bottle is convenient for precise applications.

Application and safety notes

Prepare surfaces by cleaning and priming before painting with Mr.Hobby GSI-C306. Apply with a brush for small parts or an airbrush for uniform coverage, and always follow safe handling practices for lacquers including good ventilation.

Will this paint remain flexible on thin plastics?

No. Lacquer finishes like GSI-C306 are harder and less flexible than polycarbonate paints, so they are better suited to rigid plastic kits and resin models rather than bendable thin plastics.

Is additional primer required?

Using a suitable primer improves adhesion and evens out the surface, especially on bare plastic or resin. A primer is recommended for the best finish with this lacquer.

Are there recommended thinning ratios for airbrushing?

Thinning ratios vary by airbrush and ambient conditions. Start with the manufacturer's guidelines and test on scrap pieces to dial in the right flow and atomisation before painting your model.
