ALCLAD PAINT

Since 1999, Alclad II Lacquers has been the industry leader in high-performance finishes for modelers worldwide. Born in England with a simple mission—to make realistic, natural metal finishes accessible and easy to use—we’ve grown from a boutique range of three colors into a global powerhouse of specialized coatings.

From our legendary Chrome for Plastic (#107) to our specialized lines for RC Lexan bodies, Alclad II is engineered for those who refuse to settle for "close enough."

Why Choose Alclad II?

  • Unrivaled Realism: Our current catalog features 23 distinct metal finishes, special effects, and transparent colors designed to mimic real-world surfaces with stunning accuracy.
  • Global Reach, Local Support: With dual production facilities in the U.K. and the U.S.A., we provide seamless supply and support to North America, Europe, Australia, and the Far East.
  • Versatility Beyond the Workbench: While we are the "modeler’s choice" for scale aircraft and cars, our quality is trusted by industry giants. You’ll find Alclad II on everything from Hollywood special effects and Universal Studios projects to custom motorcycles and architectural models.

Innovation is in Our DNA

We don't just rest on our reputation. Our R&D team is constantly exploring new materials and coating technologies to ensure that when the next generation of modeling challenges arrives, Alclad II is ready to finish it.
