Mr.Hobby GSI-GX201 GX Metal Black Paint Overview for Scale Modelling

Mr.Hobby GSI-GX201 GX Metal Black is a lacquer formulation tuned for model makers who want a consistent metallic black finish. Part of the Mr.Color GX range, it gives reliable opacity and a refined sheen that lifts panel lines and fine details on completed builds.

Suggested Uses and Key Traits

Use this paint to add metallic depth to aircraft, armour, and vehicle kits. The GX Metal Black delivers fine particle dispersion for even spraying and is suitable for both small parts and larger surfaces, achieving a professional look when applied correctly.

Practical Application Advice

Apply in thin, overlapping coats and allow each layer to dry before recoat to build up rich metallic tone. Work in a ventilated space, consider a compatible primer for best adhesion, and thin with the recommended lacquer thinner when airbrushing to avoid clogging.

Yes, when used over a suitable primer the lacquer in Mr.Hobby GSI-GX201 sticks well to common modelling plastics and gives a durable finish.
Thin the paint to the manufacturer suggested ratio with lacquer thinner, use low to medium pressure, and build colour with several light passes to avoid runs and maintain metallic effect.
Brush application is possible for minor touch ups, but the metallic particles may show brush marks; airbrushing is recommended for the smoothest, most even finish.
