R149.00R225.00

 

Createx Reducers and Balancing Clears are indispensable components for achieving professional-quality results across a wide range of creative projects. Designed to enhance the performance and versatility of Createx paints, these products ensure smooth application, reliable adhesion, and a flawless finish.

 

Createx Reducers
Createx Reducers are specially formulated to adjust paint viscosity, improving flow and control for detailed airbrush work or broader applications. By preventing tip-dry and reducing clogging, they make airbrushing more efficient and enjoyable. Ideal for fine art, automotive projects, and hobbies, these water-based, eco-friendly solutions are compatible with all Createx paints and easy to clean up with water.

The 4011 is more focused on improving the paint’s consistency for smoother application, whereas the 4021 is about increasing the transparency of the paint. If you need to make the paint flow better for base coats or primers, use 4011. If you’re aiming for translucent layers and fine details, the 4021 is the better choice.

  • Thins paint for improved flow and smoother application.
  • Prevents tip-dry and reduces airbrush clogging.
  • Enhances control for detailed and precise work.
  • Promotes faster drying times for airbrush paints
  • Used to lower viscosity when airbrushing
  • Compatible with all Createx paints and clears.
  • Water-based, eco-friendly, and easy to clean with water.
  • Vegan & Cruelty-free.
  • Comes in 60ml or 120ml bottle.

 

Createx Balancing Clears
Createx Balancing Clears offer a transparent, durable finish that enhances and protects your paintwork. Use them as inter-coat clears to ensure strong adhesion between layers, as topcoats for added UV-resistant protection, or to dilute colors for subtle effects. These versatile, water-based clears dry to a smooth, water-resistant finish, making them perfect for automotive, artistic, and craft applications.

  • Provides a transparent, UV-resistant protective layer.
  • Functions as an inter-coat clear, topcoat, or color reducer.
  • Improves adhesion between paint layers for durable results.
  •  Used to optimize flow.
  • Water-based, non-toxic, and environmentally safe.
  • Dries to a smooth, water-resistant finish.
  • Vegan & Cruelty-free.

Description

Createx Reducers

Createx Reducers are essential additives designed to optimize the performance of Createx airbrush colors and other water-based paints. These transparent, water-based solutions reduce paint viscosity, improving flow and application for detailed work. Ideal for customizing paint consistency, they help achieve smooth and controlled spray patterns while preventing tip-dry and clogging in airbrushes. Whether you’re creating fine details or broad gradients, Createx Reducers provide the flexibility needed for consistent, professional results.

  • Adjusts paint viscosity for precise control in airbrushing.
  • Improved Flow and reduces the risk of tip-dry.
  • Works seamlessly with all Createx paints and clears.
  • Water-Based & Low in VOCs, eco-friendly, and easy to clean up with water.

4011 Reducer vs 4021 Reducer:

4021 Reducer has a slower evaporation rate compared to 4011 Reducer, which allows paints mixed with 4021 to flow and level better, enhancing the finish by reducing brush marks and spray irregularities.

4021 Reducer virtually eliminates tip-dry. Createx paints have much less tip-dry when thinned with 4021 Reducer compared to thinning with 4011 Reducer.

Createx paints can be thinned generously with 4021 Reducer so colors spray well at reduced pressures without a stippled appearance, allowing colors to blend and transition seamlessly. Thinning with 4011 Reducer does not create this effect.

Generously thinning Createx paint with 4021 Reducer and allowing the mixed paint 10+ minutes acclimation time to reduce surface-tension is similar to “over-reducing” a solvent-based urethane paint before airbrushing, allowing the colors to “melt-in” and spray without any texture, or stippled effect.

Both 4011 Reducer and 4021 Reducer can be used with any Createx paint and are generally added to colors at the same volume, although due to its ability to improve flow and leveling more than 4011 Reducer, 4021 Reducer can be added in less volume to Createx paint

 


Createx Balancing Clears

Createx Balancing Clears are versatile, transparent finishes that enhance and protect your paintwork while ensuring compatibility and adhesion across layers.
