What type of miniatures can I paint with these?
The paints are suitable for painting gaming miniatures made from various materials including plastic, resin, and metal, creating tabletop-quality results.
Do the paints require thinning?
The paints come with mixing balls to help achieve consistent texture through shaking. Some thinning with water or medium may be needed for specific techniques, but they are formulated to have good coverage straight from the bottle.

The set includes a brush-on primer, which is applied with a brush rather than sprayed, making it suitable for indoor use without ventilation concerns.
How should I store the paints?
Store the paint bottles upright with lids tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent drying out and maintain consistency.
