It is especially useful when using pigments, washes, streaking effects, etc.

It can also be used to blend and clean up washes: let the wash dry for 15-20 minutes and then gently rub the sponge on the surface to remove the excess. You can speed up the process using warm air. You can pass the pad several times until the desired effect is achieved, either by blending the effect or by removing it completely.

It can be also used to blend applications of pigments suspended in enamel thinners: let it dry for 15 minutes or decrease the drying time with a hairdryer, and rub as before. If the pigments are used dry, you can proceed immediately. You can remove the effect completely or obtain smooth transitions depending on your needs. The gentle abrasive action allows you to work on your models without damaging neither the paint or the model surface. We recommend using it on a satin or shiny surface.
