AK Interactive XTREME METAL Jet Exhaust (AK486)
Jet Exhaust is the shade that turns a good natural-metal build into a convincing one. It's the burnt, heat-stained tone you see baking off exhaust pipes, jet nozzles and hard-worked metal — a darker, slightly scorched metallic that layers beautifully over brighter aluminiums to suggest real heat and use. Feather it in around the hot spots and the whole finish gains a story.
At a glance
- AK Xtreme Metal metallic — reference AK486
- Ultra-fine pigments for a genuine metal look, not a grey approximation
- Ultra-high coverage with a hard-wearing, weather-resistant film
- Airbrush-ready; no primer required and won't attack the plastic
- Takes a varnish without dulling the sheen
Best for
- Exhaust pipes, jet nozzles and burnt-metal areas
- Layering heat discolouration over brighter metals
- Adding wear and character to natural-metal finishes
Used sparingly around the hot end of an engine, it's the difference between a clean model and one that looks like it's actually flown.
Heat staining is what makes metal believable. Combine it with brighter tones from the Xtreme Metal range for a full natural-metal effect.
