Use Xtreme Metal to distinguish metal panels, engine parts and hardware by tone and sheen. Choose a shade based on whether the surface should look cast, machined, polished or heat affected.
How to use this range
AK’s Xtreme Metal guide recommends airbrushing. Make adjacent test panels when selecting different metals for an aircraft skin or engine so each tone still reads as part of the same assembly.
At the workbench
A smooth test panel helps reveal how preparation and the base color affect the finish. Apply the coating according to the product instructions. When using Chrome or Polished Aluminium, check AK’s guidance on the dedicated black base.
What to compare before ordering
Compare the specific metallic shade and any preparation product by item number. Use a compatible cleaner and test a clear coat on scrap before applying it to a reflective surface.
