AKIRC821 - AK Interactive Real Colors Clear Red 17 ml.

AKIRC821 - AK Interactive Real Colors Clear Red 17 ml.

A transparent, candy-red lacquer designed to be applied over metallic or light base coats to create vivid, luminous tinted effects — quite different in application from opaque paints. Part of the AK Interactive Real Colors Standard range in the new 17ml plastic dropper bottle, RC821 Clear Red carries over from the original RC503 in the previous 10ml glass bottle range.

Clear Red is used across scale modelling wherever a translucent red is needed to replicate the optical properties of coloured glass, lenses, or painted metallic surfaces. Its primary uses include tail lights, brake lights, and indicator lenses on all vehicle types — from WWII jeeps and half-tracks to modern cars and motorcycles. Applied over a silver or aluminium base, it creates the deep, jewel-like appearance of ruby red navigation lights on aircraft including the P-51 Mustang, Spitfire, Lancaster, and B-17 Flying Fortress. It is also used for red transparent panels and warning lights on AFV instrument panels, and for creating candy red finishes over chrome or aluminium on automotive and motorcycle subjects. Thin coats allow full control of colour depth and saturation.
