Scale MotorSport Introduces: Faux FabrixTM Textured Spray Paint
A revolutionary textured spray paint, Faux Fabrix creates a soft, fabric-like
finish for upholstered seats, tonnau covers, convertible tops, trunk, chassis,
engine bay insulation racing seat shells and more! Created not just for
automotive model builders, Faux Fabrix is perfect for replicating textured
clothing on figurines too or anywhere a cloth-like surface is needed.
 
No longer do you need to hassle with surface painting, white glue and messy
flocking. Faux Fabrix is a one-step process. All that is needed is a clean
dry surface and two or three mist coats. Faux Fabrix lays down a beautiful,
in-scale textured surface for all those areas that require a real fabric
appearance or three dimensional texture.
 
Available in 5oz. spray cans with a color dot on the cap displaying the
actual color and texture of the paint. Each can will cover over 1100 square
inches! The first two colors in the line are Buff Beige sku#: 5500 and Velvet
Gray sku#: 5510.  Retail price is $6.95 per can. Dealers and Distributors
purchase in full case quantities only, 12 cans per case. Ships only UPS
within the Continental United States.
 
All colors are in stock now and we are ready to ship! All reserved orders
placed by customers previously will ship first starting this week. Faux
Fabrix will not appear on our website until November 1.
