Humbrol Modelcote Matt Cote (28ml) AC5601

Humbrol Modelcote Matt Cote (AC5601) is a premium, solvent-based clear varnish designed to provide a smooth, flat matt finish to your painted models and miniatures. Supplied in a 28ml glass bottle, it is the ideal solution for modellers seeking to reduce surface shine and enhance the realism of military vehicles, aircraft, dioramas, and figures.

This varnish dries to a completely non-reflective coating, helping to unify paint finishes and eliminate unwanted glare. It is particularly effective when applied over decals and weathering effects, giving your project a natural, cohesive look. Modelcote Matt Cote also protects your model from handling wear, dust, and environmental effects, ensuring your work maintains its quality over time.

Application is simple and versatile. Use the product straight from the bottle with a brush for small areas or fine detailing, or thin it with Humbrol Enamel Thinners for airbrush use. It dries touch-free within an hour and cures fully in 24 hours under normal conditions. For best results, apply over a fully cured, clean, and dry painted surface.
