Customer Reviews
It’s not clear to me whether Vallejo has changed their formula or whether the product was adulterated. In either case this is nothing like the Vallejo Liquid Gold I purchased at a local store two years ago. The amount of pigment relative to the solvent is drastically lower. This means the metallic particles flow in a river of solvent rather than settling smoothly onto models and forming the incredible metallic surface that is the reason I made this purchase. You can see the difference clearly if you pour some into a container and let it dry (see picture). You are left with a weird, plastic “clearcoat” whereas with the old stuff the container would dry coated with a smooth gold surface. It’s hard to imagine why Vallejo would change the formulation from something amazing to something completely and utterly awful. So I have deep suspicion that the bottle was diluted or adulterated before it reached me, but I can’t be sure until or in less I find another bottle. But I won’t be ordering this from eBay or Over The Brick again.
