Micro Coat Gloss – 1oz Bottle (Clear Gloss Finish)

This Micro Coat Gloss from Microscale is a clear gloss finish designed to provide a smooth, high-shine protective layer over painted model surfaces. Supplied in a 1oz bottle, it uses a modern water-reducible acrylic resin formulation, offering both durability and ease of application. As part of the finishing products range, it is well suited to sealing and preparing models for decals.

The gloss finish creates a reflective surface that is particularly useful before applying decals, helping to reduce the risk of silvering and improving adhesion. Once decals are applied, an additional coat can be used to seal and protect them, creating a smooth and unified finish. The coating enhances surface depth and clarity, making it suitable for subjects that require a polished appearance.

The formulation allows for even application by brush or airbrush, depending on preference. It can be thinned if required to achieve finer control, ensuring that surface details remain sharp while producing a consistent finish. Once cured, it forms a tough protective layer that helps maintain the model’s appearance over time, especially when handling is required.

Gloss finishes are an important step in many modelling processes, particularly when applying decals or aiming for a polished final appearance. A smooth gloss layer helps decals conform more effectively to the surface, improving overall realism. After sealing, additional coats can be applied to achieve the desired level of shine or to prepare for further weathering. Products like Micro Coat Gloss provide a reliable way to achieve these results, combining clarity, durability, and ease of use.
