Product detailed description
Plasticator Thick
A thick liquid plastic preparation designed to turn fragile, highly absorbent materials into a tough, sandable plastic-like surface ready for weathering.
Plasticator Thick is a High-density protective texturing and sealing preparation suitable for Sealing, reinforcing, and priming highly porous modeling materials such as foam, plaster, balsa wood, cardboard, and laser-cut paper parts before paint work.. Thick consistency that fills deep surface pores, fast drying time, creates a durable plasticized barrier shield, prevents absorption of harsh solvents and enamels.. Protecting raw polystyrene foam insulation boards in diorama bases from melting under synthetic enamel washes, and stiffening delicate laser-cut cardboard architecture..
About the product
Plasticator Thick is an absolute lifesaver when constructing diorama terrains or working with multi-media scratch-build materials. Raw foam, plaster, balsa, and cardboard are notoriously porous, meaning they absorb immense amounts of liquid or simply dissolve when they touch solvent-based model paints. This high-density formula creates a completely impermeable protective shell once dry. The treated surface takes on the exact working characteristics of a standard plastic model kit, meaning you can safely layer aggressive enamel washes, oil paints, or pigment fixers right on top. The thick version also works beautifully to fill in the rough, unwanted grain texture of wood or plaster castings without losing the sharp definition of your structural edges.

Tips and tricks
| Category | Description |
|---|---|
| Use | Stiffening paper and card: Excellent; Foam insulation protection: Excellent; Sealing plaster and wood pores: Excellent; Final gloss varnish on models: Not recommended. |
| Advantages | Dries rapidly with zero odor, drastically boosts the structural strength of weak pieces, reduces the overall amount of model paint absorbed by the material. |
| Weaknesses | The thick viscosity requires careful brushing to ensure it does not gather into unwanted pools or droplets over ultra-fine details. |
| Combination | AMMO acrylic and enamel paints, weathering pigments, and AMMO mud textures. |
| Tip | Apply the thick fluid with an old flat brush in smooth, even strokes. If you are texturing a landscape made of plaster or raw foam, brushing this directly onto the surface seals the pores exactly where you need it, stopping your expensive hobby paint from getting sucked down into the substrate. |
