3Gen paints are the latest generation acrylics offering excellent adhesion, high-quality pigments, strong coverage in a single coat, and a matte finish.

Special additives prevent paint separation and reduce brush marks. When thinned, they are suitable for airbrush use, with fine pigment that minimizes nozzle clogging and tip dry. The paints are non-toxic and odorless.

They are perfect for brush painting and can also be used with an airbrush. Designed for plastic models and figures, they are equally suitable for resin, wood, cardboard, and general hobby projects.
