Fluorescent White Paint

Break the mould of conventional modelling by applying a high-intensity fluorescent white

Pure chromatic intensity and advanced ultraviolet effects

Take the treatment of light in your models to a higher technical level using one of the most unique and advanced fluorescent formulas in the industry. The range of opaque acrylic paints from Green Stuff World provides exceptional vibrancy that completely surpasses the capabilities of traditional pigments. The fluorescent white tone is the perfect ally for simulating flashes of pure energy, sci-fi reactor cores, xenon light effects on scale vehicles, or radical decorations that require optimal visibility on the slot track during night competitions. When exposing the model to black or ultraviolet light, the resin reacts immediately, glowing with its own light, adding spectacular technical value to your collection pieces in display cases or themed play areas.

Technical versatility with brush and airbrush in the workshop

The balanced consistency of this acrylic pigment ensures an extremely comfortable user experience on all types of plastic, metal, or resin surfaces that have been previously primed. If you work with a brush, you will discover excellent adhesion for creating extreme light highlights, small mechanical components, or high-visibility signage with total control over the stroke. For airbrush enthusiasts, the product flows smoothly after proper dilution, allowing you to cover large sections of bodies or create smooth transitions and gradients on terrains and dioramas without risking clogging the internal components of the tool. Its non-toxic composition allows for long painting sessions with complete peace of mind. The packaging includes a practical dispenser that optimises consumption drop by drop, remembering that it is essential to remove the internal protective seal that may be present in the bottle before proceeding with its first use.

Green Stuff World's Fluor Blanco acrylic paint delivers exceptional opacity and unique brightness, reaching its maximum visual impact on scale models, custom figures, and detailed diorama layouts. This fluorescent white pigment glows intensely under ultraviolet and black light, providing hobbyists and collectors with endless creative techniques for sci-fi elements or high-end slot car bodies. Perfectly suited for both detailed brushwork and seamless airbrush gradients, this non-toxic 17 ml bottle ensures professional results and clean coverage on any primed hobby surface.

Usage tips

The fluorescent range from Green Stuff World requires dilution for use with an airbrush, especially if you are working with a 0.3 mm needle.

Although they come out of the bottle with an apparently fluid consistency, fluorescent paints have a very particular pigment load and a resin that tends to dry quickly at the tip of the needle (tip dry), which will cause constant clogs in a 0.3 mm nozzle if applied directly.

To achieve the best performance and avoid frustration with clogs, keep the following application guidelines in mind:

1. The dilution ratio

The general rule for this range in airbrush is to seek a texture similar to that of skimmed milk.

• Recommended ratio: Approximately 1:1 or 60% paint and 40% thinner.

• The ideal thinner: Use a specific acrylic thinner (Thinner). Avoid excessive dilution with water, as water breaks the cohesion of the fluorescent pigment with the resin, causing the paint to "spit," create maps, or lose light intensity.

• The key trick: Always add 1 or 2 drops of flow improver (Flow Improver) directly into the cup. This will delay drying at the 0.3 mm needle and maintain a constant flow.

2. Surface preparation (Mandatory)

Fluorescent paints are inherently translucent; they do not have opacity by themselves.

• Pure white base: You must apply them over a matte white base. If applied over grey, black, or bare plastic, the colour will completely dull and lose the fluorescent effect.

• If you want to create transitions or dynamic lights, first do a pre-shading in black and white (light sketch) and ensure that the areas of maximum brightness have a flawless white before applying the fluorescent paint.

3. Pressure and application

• Work at a medium-low pressure, between 1.5 and 1.8 bar (approximately 22-26 PSI).

• Apply very thin and successive layers, allowing a few seconds to dry between passes. It is preferable to apply three thin transparent layers than to try to cover in one go, as if you exceed the trigger, the paint will accumulate moisture and slide over the white base.

Protection note: The fluorescent pigment is somewhat more fragile once dry. When you finish and the paint is well set, it is highly recommended to apply a layer of varnish (satin or gloss) to protect the finish and firmly fix the intensity of the colour.
