Please check out product FAQ for tips and guidelines. No time to waste! ENML 2.0 binders are dry to touch the moment you evaporate the solvent. Once the solvent is gone (it takes about 20 sec. with a hair dryer) your pigment layer is ready! ENML 2.0 binders are based on medium evaporation rate solvent meaning they won't dry up on you in the middle of the process. You decide when the work is done by applying heat which freezes the pigment in place or just leaving the model to dry by it's own. Add or remove pigments at your leisure! Many, especially young modelling artists are reluctant to weathering as classic enamel products are irreversible once cured. You fix your pigment badly and that's that! With VMS ENML 2.0 binders weathering is never a done deal! Although ENML 2.0 binders cure in a matter of seconds just as your typical enamel would but better - they can be completely reversed at any time! Now you can go crazy with your model and remove the pigment job if you don't like it and better use the reversibility to your advantage and create numerous SFX. With these flexible binders sky is the limit! Create custom weathering liquids and pastes! VMS ENML 2.0 aren't just simple pigment fixers, they are devised to work as fully fledged weathering liquid/paste binders with appropriate flow and viscosity. Now YOU decide the colour, flow, opacity and texture - every aspect of a weathering liquid. Benefit from rapid action and reversibility while exercising your favourite techniques! Simply mix your pigments with ENML 2.0 binders and a fresh batch of weathering liquid or pase is ready! ENML 2.0 Binders capability roundup!

You may use either VMS Universal weathering carrier "standard" or "light" type. "Standard" carrier type works faster but can be used only over acrylic base coats. "Light" type works a bit slower but can be used over both enamel and acrylic base coats. Please check out Universal weathering carrier product FAQ to learn more. How to produce even coverage effect? “Even coverage” is a starting point for many other techniques + it imitates fine dry mud very well on it's own. Give it a try to familiarise yourself with VMS binders and step up to more advanced techniques. Mix your pigment with ENML 2.0 binders “standard” type. Apply resulting weathering liquid with a brush as if painting. One dry you can dust raw pigment on top of the layer for lighter shade (even coverage + dusting on top). You can use hair dryer to expedite things. How do I create my own weathering liquid? Mix your spot-on pigments or equivalent (low quality pigments produce bad weathering liquids which spread badly) with the ENML 2.0 binders "standard" type in a jar or tray. Basic mixing ratio is 1:1 but you can add more pigments for stronger liquid with better coverage capability. By changing the pigment amount you can adjust the liquid to your needs and style! How to create pigment wash and do partial removal? Procedure is as for even coverage. Apply a layer of pigment using ENML 2.0 binders “standard” type. Use hair dryer. Once a layer is dry use UNIVERSAL weathering carrier to liquefy it again and remove portions of pigment. Remove as much pigment as you need leaving it in places you deem appropriate. Doing it this way, using binders first, introducing carrier (thinner) later ensures your pigment job is permanent, classic washes with just the thinner are not durable. How to create dry mud accumulation? Mix your textured pigments with ENML 2.0 binders "standard" type. Apply the resulting paste with a brush and use hair dryer to get rid of the solvent freezing the job in place. ENML 2.0 cures quickly but can be reversed at any time. This means you can come back with a precision brush soaked with Universal weathering carrier later and correct the job. Alternatively you may exercise classic capillary technique as described below. How and when to fix my pigments using capillary action? You will want to take advantage of capillary action whenever you want to produce accumulated mud or dirt. This technique benefits greatly from using textured pigments. To make things more effective start by applying a thin layer of ENML 2.0 binders "standard" wherever you want the pigment job to appear. Next sprinkle textured pigments over the wet binders layer so that they stick to it. Now is the time for the proper capillary action technique. Dispense some binder into a tray and dip a precision brush in it. Apply drops of binders directly over the pigments you sprinkled earlier, allow the drops to slide from the bristle and penetrate the pigment structures. You can sprinkle more pigment any time during this process. When you are done you can apply heat to get rid of the solvent. Pigments will regain original colours within a few hours once the rest of the solvent is gone. How to create wet effects? (coloured i.e. with use of pigments, high gloss finish on road wheels and suspension) Mix your pigments with VMS ENML 2.0 "Wet FX" type binders. Apply the resulting paste (textured pigments) or liquid (zero tex pigments). Use hair dryer to get rid of the solvent. The pigment job will turn matt as the pigments absorb the binders the first time you mix and apply them. Don't worry about the matt finish it's supposed to work this way. Let the pigment job breathe for about 1h for a better sealed and more durable layer. Next step is to apply a thin coat of ENML 2.0 binders "Wet FX" over the pigment job you just created in order to enhance the gloss. You can add multiple layers for a "dripping wet" effect. Use hair dryer between the coats for quicker results. You can apply "Wet FX" all over or just locally for more variation. How to create point wet (wet accent) effects? For damp (satin finish ) point effect use ENML 2.0 “Wet FX”. Simply apply the binders with a precision brush wherever you need them. For more glossy wet effects please use ENML 2.0 “Wet FX” binders. What are low and high opacity wet glazes and how to create them? Wet glazes are glossy fluids with low to moderate pigment percentage. Contrarily to gloss paints glazes offer a certain amount of transparency so as to show underlying coats. This means more authentic and better looking results. To prepare a low opacity glaze with mix a tiny bit (5%) of pigment with ENML 2.0 “Wet FX” type binder and then spread it evenly over the target part. To create high opacity glaze mix a bit more pigment (10-15% depending ho much opacity is your goal – more pigment equals higher coverage) with ENML 2.0 “Wet FX” type binders and spread a thin layer over the target part. While making glazes always use minimal pigment amounts to retain gloss! If you overdose pigments and glazes turn matt you can always apply a thin coat of pure binders over to increase gloss, but best glazes are just one layer. How to create partial wet glaze effect? Follow the glaze procedure as described above to create low or high opacity glaze first. To remove the gloss where needed use Universal weathering carrier, use damp brush to wipe excessive binders, use hair dryer to check the result. If still too glossy do some more wiping, you may introduce a bit pigment along with the carrier to reduce gloss better. To create a smooth transition from gloss to matt, allow the carrier to flow freely between the both areas, soak it up with your brush (without wiping) and finally use hair dryer to check out the result. What do you mean by maximising dusting results and how do I do that? Dusting is the basic way of working with pigments. You simply rub pigments with the brush wherever you want it to appear. It involves no binders. It often happens that you want the dusted pigments to have higher opacity and better coverage but their capabilities are limited as there are no binders involved. For instance you want to model a vehicle that has been rolling in the deserts. You dust some pigment over the wheels and hull but the base coat is still showing too much, the coverage is poor, raw pigment is not enough. To remedy that you need to mix your pigments with the ENML 2.0 binders "standard" type and apply resulting weathering liquid with a brush - just paint the target area with pigments for what we call "even coverage". Apply heat so that the solvent is gone. Next do the dusting over this pigment coat - you will be amazed by how good and homogeneous the coverage is. Such pigment job will have maximum opacity and vibrancy. We refer to it as "even coverage + dusting on top" - check out the capability round-up. How to create streaking on my vehicle's hull? Mix your pigment with ENML 2.0 "standard" type binders. Apply the resulting weathering liquid wherever you want the streaking to appear. No finesse is needed here, simply paint some irregular dot-like shapes here and there they will disappear later on - don't sweat it. Apply heat using hair dryer until this initial pigment job is dry. Now soak a soft flat brush* with Universal weathering carrier, touch it to a piece of paper to remove the excessive carrier (brush needs to be damp not dripping wet) and then swipe it over the pigment job you just did using vertical brushstrokes - observe how easily cool streaking lines are appearing. Move from bottom to top of the vehicle and the other way round. Keep swiping until you remove as much pigment as you need. You can end up with heavy streaking, barely visible effect or no streaking at all if you change your mind. Rinse the brush with Universal weathering carrier frequently so that it collects the pigments better. Remember to use damp, not dripping wet brush. How to create light spatter on my vehicle's hull? (matt finish) Mix your pigment with ENML 2.0 "standard" type binders so as to produce weathering liquid, mix the liquid well so that there are no clumps unless you are going for heavy, textured spatter. Spatter is best created using a flat brush*. Dip the brush in weathering liquid and then touch it to a piece of paper to remove the excessive liquid. Press the bristles of the brush with your finger and move it in a backward direction so that the liquid gets sprayed. The procedure is similar to simple toothbrush spraying technique. Do test spraying on a sheet of paper to get the hang of it and adjust spatter size and density. With this technique you can produce light, heavy and thick spatter alike. As with all ENML 2.0 pigment jobs you can completely or partially reverse the results if need be. How to create heavy spatter on my vehicle's hull? (matt finish) Procedure is similar to the one for light spatter described above. It's best to do some actual light spatter first and then follow up with heavy. After creating light spatter add some textured pigments to your existing weathering liquid or make a new batch with textured pigments. Apply this gritty mixture the same way as before (toothbrush spraying technique) over the lighter spatter to produce the accumulation. Apply the grit over the lower parts of your AFV and leave the upper parts with just the light spatter. If there are any unwanted clumps of pigments on the model simply use precision brush to “pick” them up. How to create heavy spatter on my vehicle's hull? (wet finish) Apply standard (matt) heavy spatter first as described above. Wait for it to dry for several hours so that the coat has better durability. Next mix a tiny bit of the pigments you used for the initial matt finish spatter with ENML 2.0 binders “Wet FX” type. Tiny is the key word here, 5% of pigment in the mix is enough so that the gloss is retained. Apply this thick mixture over the matt spatter to enhance the finish and make it glossy. Use gentle taping motion while applying this glossy layer so that you don't disturb the original layer. The mixture will level and allow the original texture to show as it dries. If after 2h the gloss is fine you are done. If not apply another coat of ENML 2.0 binders “Wet FX” type this time don't use pigments, raw binder will do the trick. Which binder to use to produce cool wet effects on hull? (pure binders without pigments) Go with ENML 2.0 “Wet FX” binder type. It has optimal thickness, flow and levelling capabilities. Binder can be easily spread, will dry to a thin film and can be removed or modified anytime using Universal weathering carrier. What techniques do you recommend to create wet effects on hull? To create water residue or spilled fuel imitations apply the binders where you need them with a precision brush. Excessive or unnaturally looking binders can be removed or adjusted using Universal weathering carrier. Use the carrier to create soft transitions from wet to dry surfaces. To create streaking water imitation apply dots of binder atop the vehicle and swipe them down with flat brush* like you do while creating streaking, you don't need to dampen the brush with carrier – this way you will end up with sharp contours on your streaking. Another cool technique is rain marks, dip your flat brush* in the binder, wipe the excess and create spatter using toothbrush spraying technique. To create dispersed wet accents apply ENML 2.0 binders with precision brush first. To create actual dispersion (lack of sharp contours and natural blending of a wet effect with it's surroundings) use Universal weathering carrier. Apply it all over the place so that the binders can disperse over the area. Use your brush to spread and move the binders until you have them just where intended. How can binders aid me while filtering? While filtering your goal is to change the shade of the base colour. For instance you may want to indicate that your AFV was rolling on a dusty road and make the base coat reflect that. You may want to create some fading using white, or darken the base to show the vehicle was extensively used, possibilities are endless. VMS Spot-on pigments are great for filtering as they are very fine and adhere very well on their own. When you couple them with ENML 2.0 binders you can easily create your own filtering fluids on the spot. To filter your model with pigments you first need to create standard weathering fluid as described above. Apply it here and there on the model. Next step is to swipe over the target area with your flat brush* soaked with Universal weathering carrier so as to spread the pigments evenly over the surface. Continue swiping until you are happy with the result i.e. most pigments are gone and the area gets the intended change of colour. My weathering liquid is not deep matt when it dries, it's glistening here and there. This rarely happens but when it does simply add more pigments to the mix – the gloss will disappear. What's the best way to clean my brushes after working with ENML 2.0? For regular clean up - between the jobs, Universal weathering carrier will suffice. Just have some carrier ready, rinse the brushes and wipe clean using a paper towel or a cloth. For proper deep cleaning please use VMS Airbrush Cleaners Pro ENML type (label with blue ENML icon) which have maximum potency and will keep your brushes in top condition by freeing them of pigments and binders that accumulate at the base of the bristle. Brushes that are not deep cleaned regularly deteriorate faster overtime. What's the difference between nylon and red sable brushes? Synthetic nylon brushes are inexpensive but don't last as long as natural red sable ones. It's worth to invest in a red sable - they are cleaned far more easily, are softer and last forever if deep cleaned regularly. *flat brush: 1 cm wide bristle, size 10+, we recommend red sable but nylon equivalent will do BACK

The open time is around 15 minutes depending on ambient temperature. What cleaning agents should I use to clean tools? The glue is a water dispersion of PVA and can be cleaned up with tap water and soap. How long does it take for the glue to properly harden; cure? Allow 24 for the glue to form a fully durable joint. How long does it tae for the glue to become transparent? It depends on a joint's thickness. Thin layers will become translucent within 2-3 hours, thicker joints may take up to 12h before they turn transparent. BACK

Combine with: Decals Recommended techniques: Brush Available volumes: 30 ml dropper bottle VMS Decal Set & Soften 2 in 1 FAQ How to use the fluid (thin decals)? Makes sure your paint coat is 5+ days old. Apply a drop of fluid over target area and place your decal over so prepared area. Allow 45 seconds for the decal to absorb the fluid, then press the decal to the surface and squeeze the excessive fluid and. Use brush soaked with water to neutralise the excess decal fluid and wipe the area clean away as seen in the video. Mould the decal if necessary using a cotton bud. How to use the fluid (thicker decals)? Makes sure your paint coat is 5+ days old. Make sure you are dealing with thick decals by conducting the 5 minutes immersion test as shown in the video . Soak the thick decal on the surface of decal fluid for 10 minutes as seen in the video . Apply a drop of fluid over target area and place your decal over so prepared area. Press the decal to the surface and squeeze the excessive fluid and. Use brush soaked with water to neutralise the excess decal fluid and wipe the area clean away as seen in the video. Mould the decal if necessary using a cotton bud. How to know my decal type (thin vs thick)? Conduct the 5 minutes immersion test as shown in the video . How effective is the fluid? One model requires around 0.5-1 ml of fluid depending on the decal amount, bottle holds 30 ml. You will be able to finish around 30-60 1/35 scale models before you run out of the product. What agent to use to clean brushes? Plain water is enough to clean the brushes. How long do I need to wait before I can varnish my model? Wait 24h - the decal will achieve the best fit over this time. Do I need to use gloss varnish before applying decals (so the can be positioned better)? Our decal fluid is formulated to let the decal slide over surface without the need for a gloss undercoat which is a classic technique. I applied the decal fluid over VMS Varnish HD "gloss type" and it dissolved the varnish coat? The decal fluid shouldn't be applied over varnish as it has the potential to dissolve it, varnish is best used to seal the decal once it has been applied. You will be able to slide the decal around thanks to the fluid itself so gloss undercoat is not necessary. The paint dissolved when the decal fluid was applied. We advise applying the fluid over 2 properly cured layers of paint (5+ days old). If cured paint (2 layers) is still affected then you can dilute the decal fluid with water - take 2 drops of fluid and 1 drop of water mix them and use this lighter fluid cut, if still too potent you can make a mix using 1 drop of fluid and 1 drop of water. Alternatively you may soak decals in the fluid for a few seconds and then apply over model without applying the fluid on the model itself - this will minimise contact with model's surface but will help soften the decal - we show this technique in the video with thick decals. Please note, regular, thin decals require just a few seconds of soaking like 10-15 seconds so use spare decals and conduct a test to make sure. BACK

Combine with: resin to resin Recommended techniques: Apply with wire Available volumes: 20 gr dropper bottle Add to Cart See Flexy 5K Resin in action! Flexy 5k Resin FAQ What's the best technique for precise application of the glue? Dispense a portion of photo-etch glue on a piece of styrene, glass or a metal sheet, never on cardboard as it will absorb your glue. Have a 10 cm long piece of straight brass or steel wire ready, its Ø 0.5-1 mm. The wire will act as your renewable glue applicator. Dip the tip of a brass or steel wire in the blob and then touch it to a PE part or the model itself. Bring the parts together. That's that! Now cut the tip of your applicator wire with your trusty modelling knife or better side cutters to start anew with a clean tip. Small parts can be held with tweezers and dipped in the blob without resorting to the wire. I have dispensed a portion of the glue as per instruction, how long till it becomes useless? A blob of glue is good about 45 minutes after it was dispensed. It gets thicker overtime. For best results and to conserve your glue dispense smaller blobs to always have a small amount of fresh glue at your disposal. I have misaligned a model part and want to reposition it! Slide the tip of your hobby knife between the parts to separate them. Once the parts come apart scrub the remaining glue in the same manner, try sliding the tip between the glue remains and the part from the side, the glue will give in. PS may need some sanding after the procedure. You can also use VMS Debonder. There are problems with the joints I've created! Fingerprints and any other residue don't help your cementing! Make sure you degrease surfaces and sand the more difficult metal parts if necessary to remove brass patina and/or dip coatings. Degreasing can be conducted with simple dish washing fluid for plastic parts. Metal and resin can be degreased with dish washing fluid but you can also use more aggressive chemicals such as acetone which evaporates very quickly and requires no drying. We advise you degrease metal parts with VMS Styrene Cement (standard type) which is a solvent blend and degreases better than basic chemicals (pure acetone), you can also use VMS Universal weathering carrier. What's the shelf life of the glue? Old formula (oval bottle, round bottle without pin in cap): Opened bottle can last 12-16 months and more (if stored in the fridge, opaque box). Unopened bottle will be good for 16-24 months and more, provided it's stored in temperature below 10 °C or lower (fridge, opaque box). Glue can be refrigerated but can't be frozen. Shelf life very much depends on usage, that is how often you open and use the glue so the figures given will vary. Storage in temperatures higher than 15 °C and sunlight will decrease the shelf life. New formula (round bottle with pin in cap): Opened bottle can last 12-24 months and more (if stored in the fridge, opaque box). Unopened bottle will be good for 24-36 months and more, provided it's stored in temperature below 10 °C or lower (fridge, opaque box). Glue can be refrigerated but can't be frozen. Shelf life very much depends on usage, that is how often you open and use the glue so the figures given will vary. Storage in temperatures higher than 15 °C and sunlight will decrease the shelf life. My glue bottle contents seem low? Yes, that's no mistake, all bottles are filled at around 1/2 of their capacity. The amount of glue will last an average modeller a 1.5-2 years. After that time it's a advised to acquire a new bottle due to the glue ageing. Bottle contents is 20 gr. BACK FLEXY 5K RESIN IN ACTION #1 FLEXY 5K RESIN IN ACTION #3 FLEXY 5K RESIN IN ACTION #4

SMART MUD XL 2 200 ml Add to Cart SMART MUD XL 2.0 allows you to create great looking terrain, without the base cracking or shrinking as it is with typical low quality pastes. Our diorama paste is very easily shaped, allowing a lot of time before it dries up, and when it does it becomes rock solid as ceramic yet flexible thanks to proprietary reinforcing fibres included in the mix. Lightweight filler makes sure the diorama is not heavy as it is with plaster and can be easily taken to modeling shows. Grains mimic actual terrain so it's easy to achieve much desired realism. Proprietary "easy imprint" formula helps create realistic imprints of tracks which is unattainable with typical acrylic slurries available on the market. Probably the best modelling paste/clay out there! Please click the photo for a more detailed description.

Available volumes: 30 ml dropper bottle, 200 ml refill Add to Cart UNIVERSAL weathering carrier FAQ Standard type specific : What's the difference between STANDARD and LIGHT variants of the carrier? STANDARD variant is compatible with all enamel products and binders on the market and must be used over acrylic coats. If you paint your models with acrylics go with carrier STANDARD. LIGHT variant is only compatible with VMS weathering binders and artist's oils but can be used over classic enamel paint coats. Go with LIGHT if you painted your model with enamels (tinlets, glass jars) and want to do some weathering without damaging the coat. I have just painted my model with my acrylic paint, how long before I can start weathering? Paint must be properly cured. Paint dry to touch is not enough even so it appears good to go. The solvents are still dissipating and the resins (binders) hardening, it is far from cured. Wait minimum 12h, optimally 24h or longer before weathering over an acrylic coat! A patient modeller is always rewarded: The longer you wait the stronger the coat an less the chance of damaging it with solvents used while weathering! I am using white spirit for my weathering will, this do the trick? Yes, this hydrocarbon complex is very similar to your modelling or artist's white spirit when it comes to purity and evaporation rates. It has finely tuned aliphatic to aromatics ratio to ensure it works fine work with any classic and modern enamel product. Works with enamels and oils alike. I am using odourless turpentine for my weathering, will this work? Yes, this product can be used just as odourless turpentine. What kind of SFX will I be able to produce? All the types you would otherwise produce with white/mineral spirits and turpentine variants. Examples include washes, streaking, blending, spatter and the like. For best results use this product with VMS Alkyd and ENML 2.0 binders. Use with dry pigments without binders is possible. Can I use this product to work with oils? Yes. If odour is a factor important to you oils work great with LIGHT variant of UNIVERSAL weathering carrier which has lower odour. Standard is best used with enamel products. Light type specific : I have just painted my model with my enamel paint, how long before I can start weathering? Paint must be properly cured. Paint dry to touch is not enough even so it appears good to go. The solvents are still dissipating and the resins (binders) hardening, it is far from cured. Wait minimum 24h, optimally 72h or longer before weathering over an enamel coat! A patient modeller is always rewarded: The longer you wait the stronger the coat an less the chance of damaging it with solvents used while weathering! What's the recommended contact time with an enamel coat? During our test 30 minutes long exposure was not an issue. The better cured a coat the longer you can work on it. Although the product is very mild and doesn't readily cause damage we advise using hair drier when the job is done to remove the excessive carrier. I am using white spirit for my weathering will, this do the trick? Yes, it will but only if you work with ENML 2.0, Alkyds or oils. This carrier doesn't mix with classic enamel paints in tinlets but has the advantage of being much less damaging to your enamel based coats. While white spirit or classic turpentine cause immediate paint cracking and shrivelling of and enamel coat this carrier doesn't. Will my enamel base coat withstand this product? What are compatible brands? Base coats done with products by the following companies are OK to work on: Humbrol®, Revell®, Model Master®. Tamiya® enamel base coats are incompatible! I am using odourless turpentine for my weathering, will this work? Yes, this product can be used just as odourless turpentine when you work with ENML 2.0, Alkyds and oils. Not to be mixed with classic enamels though! Can I use this product to work with oils? Yes. If odour is a factor important to you go with LIGHT variant of UNIVERSAL weathering carrier which has lower odour. What kind of SFX will I be able to produce? All the types you would otherwise produce with white/mineral spirits and turpentine variants. Examples include washes, streaking, blending, spatter and the like. For best results use this product with VMS Alkyd and ENML 2.0 binders. Use with dry pigments without binders is possible. There is a blue ENML icon on my UNIVERSAL weathering carrier LIGHT, does that mean I can mix it with enamels in tinlets? Universal weathering carrier STANDARD and LIGHT share the same label. Although there is the blue icon on a bottle with LIGHT variant it can't be mixed with enamels. When in doubt check the web page description. To be able to tell your variant look at the back of the bottle - appropriate marking is found there. BACK
