VMS Stain Remove 20ml - Pigment Stain and Weathering Cleaner VMS Stain Remove AX16 is a specialist modelling cleaner designed to remove stubborn pigment stains from painted surfaces. It allows you to correct unwanted weathering, remove excessive pigment staining and restore the appearance of the original base coat without using a conventional paint remover. Unlike loose pigments that can simply be brushed away, pigment staining occurs when pigment becomes incorporated into the painted surface. These marks can be difficult to remove through ordinary cleaning. VMS Stain Remove is formulated specifically to tackle this type of staining, making it useful for correcting mistakes and adjusting the appearance of weathered models. Removing Pigment Stains When working with dry modelling pigments, unwanted stains can sometimes remain on the painted surface after the loose material has been removed. VMS Stain Remove allows these marks to be treated directly, provided no pigment binder remains. To remove a pigment stain: Apply VMS Stain Remove directly to the affected area. Gently agitate the stain using a brush or cotton bud. Continue working the area until the staining begins to disappear. Wipe the treated surface clean using a brush soaked in tap water. This method is intended for dry pigment stains or residual staining where any previously applied binders have already been removed. Correcting Enamel-Based Weathering VMS Stain Remove can also be used to correct excessive or unwanted enamel-based weathering effects. However, weathering liquids and pigment fixers contain binders that must be removed before the underlying pigment staining can be treated. For enamel weathering corrections, follow this process: Remove the weathering binder using VMS Universal Weathering Carrier "Standard" type. Continue until the binder has been removed and only the translucent pigment staining remains. Dry the affected area using a hairdryer. Apply VMS Stain Remove to the remaining pigment stain. Work the affected area with a brush or cotton bud to remove the staining. Clean the treated area using a brush soaked in tap water. Removing the binder first is important because VMS Stain Remove is designed to remove pigment staining rather than the binding agents used in enamel weathering products. For Weathering Corrections and Special Effects As well as correcting unwanted marks, VMS Stain Remove can be used when adjusting existing weathering effects. Its ability to remove pigment staining gives modellers greater control over the appearance of weathered surfaces, particularly when an effect has become too heavy or needs further refinement. This 20ml cleaner is intended for working on pigment staining within the painted surface, rather than stripping the underlying paint. For enamel-based effects, use it after removing the weathering binders with Universal Weathering Carrier "Standard" type.
