Model Master Steel 1/2 oz

This is a good paint to represent steel. One word of caution is that you need to make sure that you mix this very well prior to use.

This steel blend provides pretty easy coverage, but must be mixed extremely well to prevent inconsistent finish on the project, it works great for undercarriage components like the exhaust or for engine blocks, but as I mentioned the finish can be a bit inconsistent in final color, particularly if you do not mix it vigorously prior to application. Compared to other metal finishes this one is a bit more difficult to apply without having varying color in the finish, but I believe that it is intentional to make the final product appear slightly worn. Overall it's a good simulation of steel but you have to mix it thoroughly to get a fairly even finish over the whole project.

I have been using Model Master bottle paint for years and find that they are easy to use with a multitude of colors available.
