Vallejo Metallic Metal Crimson Magenta

Vallejo Metallic Metal Crimson Magenta – Airbrush Paint is a bold metallic red-magenta that looks like high-tech anodized metal or arcane, jewel-toned alloy at scale. It’s a perfect choice when you want a standout metallic accent without losing realism. The airbrush-ready acrylic sprays smoothly straight from the bottle, using ultra-fine metallic pigment to give a clean satin-metal sheen while keeping rivets, panel lines, and surface texture sharp.

Key features

• Vibrant crimson-magenta metallic tone for anodized or sci-fi alloy effects
• Airbrush-ready acrylic metallic for smooth flow and consistent coverage
• Ultra-fine pigment for realistic sheen without glittery grain
• Builds in thin coats to preserve small-scale detail
