I am a model builder for over 20 years, and with Your channel I can learn many new ways to improve my skills. I didn't realised that with Maskol I can make a "rusty signs". Gotta test it on my new tanks ;)
Thank You, Humbrol, for this channel!
Cheers,
Andrew
That stuff looks amazing! Those rust effects are pretty awesome.
Rust effects are 1st class
So impressive! I have just ordered some! What an inspirational video. Thanks. Dave
Great project, makes like so easy by the looks of things! Great! Cheers, Jack
Excellent product Humbrol such an inspiration to modelling.
excellent video v- polished, mixed with good info well presented and it holds one's interest. Thanks
amazing. Things changed a lot since my last modeling. I'm stunned.
Great video...thanks for sharing this excellent demonstration...
The chipping effect? Totally!!! Very smart and awesome effect so easy achieved with maskol, very good alternative, if not the best?
I've not used this before, but looks very good - will have to give it a try!
Great chipping and rust effect there! Even more so, with the paint layer looking like it has bubbled up as well as flaked off around the rust. :)
Great product, just bought 3 bottles today as on offer, Humbrol hits the bullseye again with this. NoviceJohn modeller
Very nicely done !
This product looks awesome
Using maskol for replicating chipping effect looks like a good alternative to the salt and hairspray method I've seen demonstrated elsewhere.
An informative video. I am just getting back into model making after a number a decades doing other things. One thing I have learnt and rad about is prepping the surface before painting. This includes decreasing the surface as fingers leave a grease marks. I notice that the body of the tank, while still being a paint work in progress, was being held by bare hands rather than gloved hands. Does finger grease not materially affect the importance of humbrol products?
Welcome back. :)
Bloody brilliant! This may make me a better modeler!!
Wow! Pretty advanced but one for future reference and study!
Great stuff will give it a go
I plan to get some of this and the Vallejo mask just in case this doesn't like Vallejo paint. I think this would take away some of the intimidation of doing hard edged camo and multi patter camo.
thanks a really helpful video.
Great idea.
great product will try this on canopies
Can't wait to get some know to use on my shipping contains for deadzone
Nice video. Question: Eventho it is mentioned in the video that maskol could be applied over dry and fully cured Humbrol acryrilcs, what was the Tiger painted with, enamels?
Regards.
Amazing 😊
Can this be used underneath a layer of Polyurethane primer ? So that I can remove it after panting to reveal the plastic to enable the use of cement.
That's great!
My clear arrived in the mail moments ago i was planing to apply clear to the canopy then mask it with Maskol the video mentions this is not a good idea, what would happen? Can i apply clear as a final step after removing the maskol?
Thank you
Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me what camera you use to make these videos
wery wery nice effect
looks wery real :P
could you use it over loco windows and stickers instead of masking up with normal tape to weather a loco that would save a lot of fiddly masking with tape?
I have a question - you sprayed grey acrylic over the rust colour and maskol in the last demonstration on this video and then used enamel thinners to bleed the rust. I use enamel paints to spray, so would using the enamel thinners still be safe to use to bleed the rust? or would this take off my grey enamel painted finish? cheers. Dave
One of the best chipping effect ever seen! And so easy to do this way! No hair spray, no salt, easy.
My humbrol maskol is not so creamy. It is more thick. What can I use as thinner to make it more easy to use with a brush?
im guessing from the way it can be cleaned from a brush with water that it can be thinned with water.
luftwaffe ace
You are right! I try that and it works. I can use simple water ad thinner!
Thank you.
no problem
can this be used on Tamiya Acrylics?
Can you use this on a clear treated canopy
Nice video! But I have question: what is the better way to treat an ugly shaggy border, like on Tiger camo, after removing maskol?
how long do you let the airbrush colour dry before you apply the liquid mask? Just to prevent the original colour (acrylics) from coming with it afterwards
Is that last airbrush a Harder & Steenbeck Infinity?
Do I need to add water or any kind off thinner to or just apply straight from the bottle
this product great .
i just ordered two bottles. Looking forward to less fiddling with masking tape!
amazing stuff XD
Hi I got a question I'm building a SD Gundam and I want to use this kind of masking liquid the colors that I use is Mr color metallic can I use this Mexican liquid over the painting parts or I need to do something else
My maskol is thick and gets stuck in my paintbrushes, in this video your maskol was quite thin looking watered down. Have you done any thing to the maskol before applying? Also what is the best way to apply humbrol model filler. Please reply, thanks. :)
Brilliant
Hello.
How to clean the brush ? With "white spirit" ? Acétone ?
I have used maskol, but don't understand when you use it, it seems so easy. When I use it, no sooner do I get the maskol on a brush, it quickly solidifies. How do you get it to be so easy to use
πολυ καλο βιντεο.
To clarify. If a canopy has been treated with Humbrol clear gloss to create a glass effect, does this mean Maskol cannot be used to mask it when painting the canopy frame?
They said if you added humbrol clear then you can’t, so yes also welcome back to this video after 7 years
Hi, I am a newbie to airbrushing and using masking solution and need your expert suggestion on how to properly remove the masking solution without scratching the underlying base paint I applied. I am working on a Tamiya Leopard A4 and the two-color camouflage scheme requires that I first airbrush a layer of red brown, applied masking solution to outline the camouflage pattern, then airbrush the olive drab over the red brown and the masking solution. But maybe I applied too thin a layer of masking solution or too thick a layer of the olive drab paint, when I tried to remove the masking solution using
a small tweezers, I always scratched the underlying red brown paint. And since I applied a thin layer of masking solution (I used the Mr. Hobby Masking Sol R), it’s become difficulty to discern the contour of the masking solution under the 2 layer of the olive drab paint! Do you have any suggestion? As a last resort, I might just spray over the scratched surface and use the one-color camouflage scheme. Thanks for any suggestions!
What air brush do you use
Now THAT is freaking clever.
Hello this is a new guy online with a question how do I repair a broken canopy and restore it to like new condition ...for applying it to my model Aircraft...signed Emmett U.S.M.C...11,12,2017..
Is it work with insulation foam? I mean it gonna bite foam?
anyone knows how to dissolve a Maskol has been drying in the container to be not closed? Lose their properties? thx
can i use ts spay ?
I've just bought some today to weather a beetle I'm doing
How long can you leave it on for?
Can you tell me if this product suitable for papercraft?
How do you get soft paint lines like on aircraft if masking with a liquid mask?
I'm not sure if you can do that? I'd be curious myself. I think you would need to offset the masking off the surface to make that effect happen.
That is a nice chipping effect
After recently trashing a kit painted with Tamiya using Decalfix without knowing it would react with it... I'm not ready to do it all over again with the Maskol bottle I bought at the same time without being 100% sure it's safe to use on Tamiya paint... so, if anyone knows...
I used maskol this mor inf but when I peeked it off later, some of the edges of the paint kind of stretched off with it. So I didn't get clear crisp edges. The paint looked dry but I suspect it wasn't completely. How long would you leave the painted model before peeling off maskol
Did you wait 48 HOURS Untill the paint fully dries? No? Then it wo,ytnt work
@@yousuckatfortnite5598 lol Jesus are you using oil paints?! Modern acrylics need an hour or so at most to cure enough to use this stuff, it always leaves a rough edge, it’s because Maskol is garbage, you can even see in this video how bad it is.
Hi, when I peel the Maskol some of the paint comes up and stands out of the vehicle.
Could you please tell me what should I do to flatten the paint back?
E.g. at 2:42.
István Zsolt Németh
get a cheap nylon bristled paint brush and cut the hairs short then use it gently scrub the flaky bits off. GENTLY NOW!
What's scaling pad?
My bottle of Maskol is solid rubber. I tried using water to reactivate/thin the product to no avail. Any suggestions?
Buy a new bottle, that one was not properly sealed and dried up.
Ah but will it blend?
for windows grait stuff and for camoflage :) 5:00 wow i beliv you cann ot get bether results for chiping, for ships a must have :)
Rusty Saturn 5 rocket?
For camouflages i preffer a Play Doh. Its not sharp shape like maskol after all
I love this product! Mostly because when you peal it off ... mmmhhhhhmmmmmmmm
if it has high ammonia content won't it strip off acrylic paints?
Scott P No it won't. Your ok to use it over Acrylic
I was wondering if there is a kind of substitute you could use instead of humbrol maskol?
Have you tried Copydex??.
Paul Fitzgibbon I know Miniscale does something similar, but I don't know it's name.
Paul Fitzgibbon Windsor&Newton masking fluid is similar. Art shops.
Hairspray
Blutac and masking tape
What number is the dark yellow
Batman Gaming8498 i know im SUPER LATE but go on their website there is a chart which shows all colours.
Is it hard to miss a patch of Maskol for removal after a painting session?
Yes, it could be, but hold the model infront of a bright light and tint it in different directions and you could see where the paint "stands out"
How do I wash dry maskol of a brush?
Luke Knights use a strong thinner. It is said in the video
ive got expensive brushes! will this hombrol thing ruin my brushes??!
Alex L. You can aplly maskol with everything, also with a toothpick, but you must to use the brushes less less expensive..................
could you apply it to a cockpit?
That's what I'd like to know. I kept getting paint bleeds from tamiya masks and I'm looking for alternatives
Hi guys! It's unsafe to use Maskol if the model have already a coat of gloss varnish or reacts bad only with Humbrol gloss varnish? Thanks in advance :)
João Guerreiro
I use Halfords gloss varnish it's for painting cars and is tough. Other motor factors are available!
I'm considering two diffrent masking soloutions, A: the Microscale micro mask and B: Humbrol Maskol.
Now my question is, why should i get the Humbrol one and not the Microscale?
Get them both and you can let us know.
AdventureCayman
Well, you can call yourself lucky, because i allready have! :)
Ducesweden
Cool, so is there any differences between the products? Is one better at something then the other? Cost difference?
AdventureCayman The cost is about the same for both of them. and i haven't tried out maskol yet, but i will be doing it for a tank i'm currently working on. Mikromask doesn't smell, and maskol can be quite smelly, but the appearence i got is that maskol will be easier to remove. Micro mask dries as a thin plastic film, while maskol seems to dry like rubber or latex. I can do a deeper review once i tested it.
Ducesweden
Thanks for that great info. One of the things I really like is how the maskol is rubberlike. After seeing the weathering techniques they did toward the end of the video I think this is the product for me. I have used other Microscale products and have personally never been impressed although others sear by them.
I think it's all personal preferences and availability of products. I personally love Tamiya paints, yet I know a lot of people that can't stand them. I also love Polyscale which is no longer made :(
Wow! So many questions in this Comment thread that are answered in the video. The idea is that you watch the whole video, not just read the video title.
Does the maskol work with normal brush
@@v1ll349 😂
@@MacMcCaskill bruh
con quale liquido si diluisce il maskol?
Io con acqua, fai delle prove ...
I never succeeded to apply Maskol: the maskol always dry fast, the brush is quickly rubbered.
I wet and wet and wet the brush, and wet again, and wet as possible to be wet and the maskol always dry on the brush before I had time to apply more than 10 seconds... It drives me crazy, I already killed 5 brush to try to apply maskol.
That's the mystery trick to succeed !!??
Use white spirit to thin the maskol or wet your brush between applications
Never thought of it as a chipping tool
My maskol is so so thick!! I can't use like in the vid
+zetabola1 I had the same impression when I bought it but then I read on the label you can dilute it with water.
I also got that problem but stirring it helpet for me.
@@itzspeideren9004 Yep - says on the tin that you need to stir + shake the Maskol for it to work properly.
Hello, it is save to use over acrylic paints?
Steven Piper stfu and listen
He's asking a question, jackass
If you can apply this stuff with a decent edge, you can paint directly freehand. think about it! Take all the time you need.
mask for spraying
If I knew sooner about this Maskol, my Spitfire canopy wouldn't be messed up :( Now I am forced to order a new canopy :*(
Perhaps, yet the Spitfire canopy is still mesed up and can not be used now. So I can not finish the Dutch version of the Mk. IXc now. :(
is it supposed to smell like rotten egg?
Nacho Gonzalez no that's you farting
“Scarer” 😆
should read "safe"
To anyone buying this product, it dries QUICKLY you need to clean your brush instantly after you’ve applied it
where did you get yours it says not released yet on the website
@@BarbaricDuck It's not released yet on the website but you can still buy it from many other sites like amazon
How to use Maskol: From my own experience.
1. Leave it on the shelf in the model shop.
Appalling product.
Last part: :-O
For fine flowing shapes the result doesn’t look very smooth based on the demo. (eg current NATO schemepattern) it looks very sloppy. I‘ll stick to putty😹
So it contains ammonia....that's why i stinks ;) But still, awesome product!
I said all the imaginable curse words in French last time I used this product.

I did the same it’s simply terrible
