Mr.Hobby GSI-C188 Flat Base Rough - 10ml Flat Base

The Mr.Hobby GSI-C188 Flat Base Rough is a compact 10ml flatting additive made to help scale modellers and figure painters reduce gloss and add subtle texture. Use it to temper shiny finishes and create a more natural, low-sheen surface without multiple clear coats.

Where It Works Best

This flat base is useful on model kits and painted figures when you need to lower the gloss level of existing paints. Mix it into small portions of paint to achieve flat or semi-flat results, giving you greater control over the final look of panels, skin tones, or weathered surfaces.

Mixing and Application Advice

Stir the Mr.Hobby Flat Base Rough thoroughly into your paint and try a test patch first. Add in small increments until you reach the matte effect you want to avoid over-matting. Allow mixes to dry fully before evaluating sheen and before applying any topcoat.

Yes, the Flat Base Rough can be blended into a range of model paints to reduce gloss, but always test compatibility on a scrap piece first.
Begin with a small ratio and increase gradually, checking a test swatch after each addition until you reach the desired flatness.
A protective topcoat can be applied if you want extra durability, but make sure the mixture is fully dry and test for compatibility first.
