Mr. Hobby Aqueous Hobby Color: H-9 Gold (Metallic)

Achieve a rich, luxurious metal finish with Mr. Hobby Aqueous H-9 Gold. This premium metallic acrylic is the gold standard for modelers looking to replicate the look of polished brass, gold plating, or high-end automotive accents. Part of the world-class Aqueous Hobby Color line, H-009 combines a sophisticated warm-toned metallic pigment with the safety and ease of a water-based formula.

Key Features

Ultra-Fine Metallic Pigment Engineered with micro-pigments to ensure a smooth, scale-appropriate finish. H-9 avoids the "glitter" look, providing a consistent and elegant metallic sheen that looks realistic even on the smallest parts.

Safe and User-Friendly The water-based acrylic resin formula is low-odor and non-toxic once dry. It is the ideal choice for hobbyists painting in home environments or for those who prefer working without the harsh smells of solvent-based paints.

Superior Self-Leveling Formulated to settle evenly across the surface, this paint minimizes brush marks and ensures the gold flakes distribute uniformly, resulting in a sleek, factory-quality coat.

Durable and Versatile Once fully cured, the gold surface is resilient and provides an excellent base for detail painting, clear-coating, and delicate weathering.

Application Guide

Hand Brushing: Stir thoroughly before use with a paint stirrer to ensure metallic particles are evenly distributed. Apply in thin, consistent layers. If the paint feels too thick, a small amount of Mr. Aqueous Thinner will improve flow.

Airbrushing: Thin at a ratio of 1:1 or 1:1.5 (Paint to Thinner). Using Mr. Aqueous Thinner is highly recommended to achieve the smoothest atomization and a brilliant, reflective gold luster.

Pro-Tips for a Stunning Gold Finish

The Perfect Base: For the deepest and most vibrant gold, apply H-9 over a cured coat of Gloss Black (H-2) or Gloss Red (H-3). A black base provides a classic, heavy gold look, while a red base adds warmth and richness.

Thin for Detail: When painting small ornaments or V-fins, thinning the paint slightly will ensure you don't lose any of the fine plastic molding detail under a thick layer of pigment.

Cleanup: Clean your tools with water or specialized acrylic cleaner immediately after use. For dried metallic particles in your airbrush, a dedicated hobby tool cleaner is recommended.
