## Description

Product Description These are pre-thinned acrylic airbrush colours from Acrylicos Vallejo They are waterbased paints which are non-toxic and non-flammable and come in a 17ml eyedropper bottle which prevents spills.The formula contains a new acrylic resin with properties until now impossible to obtain in a waterbased acrylic. The resistence, hardness and covering power of Model Air is superior to any know acrylic for airbrushing.The pigments used for airbrush colours need to be ground to the finest possible consistency to avoid obstruction of the airbrush valves. The revolutionary milling process of the pigments used in the Model Air formula gives the modelpainter technical assurance and finest texture when applying the colours to the model, and produces a very superior qualtity when applying the colours with a brush for misiscule details, for washes and transparencies and layered application of diluted glazes. Colours can be mixed with water,Model Air Thinner or Varnish, according to the effect desired, but we recommend the use of Model Air Thinner since this product conserves the properties of the colours. Model Air adheres excepcionally well to all surfaces. The adhesion of Model Air to resin models, plastic, steel and white metal is extraordinary.Once protected with varnish, (Gloss,Matte or Satin) Model Air can be overpainted with solvent based enamels or oilcolours: they withstand cleaning with turprntine and even a light wash with alcohol. The resistance to abrasion of the colours, once varnished is superior to any other waterbased acrylic. From the Manufacturer Acrylicos Vallejo The Vallejo Company was registered in New Jersey, U.S.A., in the year 1965. In these early years it specialized in the manufacture of colors for animated films (cartoons). The most sustained expansion of Vallejo started in the nineties, beginning with the introduction of new products directed at the Model painting and Hobby sector. The company became the first specialist in acrylic colors, with a long and varied experience in all aspects of this branch of manufacturing. Model Air Paint The formula contains a new acrylic resin with properties until now impossible to obtain in a water based acrylic. The resistance, hardness and covering power of Model Air is superior to any known acrylic for airbrushing. Model Air is presented in a 17 ml. bottle with eyedropper. This packaging prevents the paint from evaporating and drying in the container.

Review: Works great with airbrush and it works well with a regular brush - Best paint on the plant. Airbrush and looks great with a regular brush. Great coverage easy to use. Dries quickly. Works well with an airbrush. Could be a little more in the bottle for the price but it's good for seven to eight bucks

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great paint good coverage easy with air brush

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the stuff
*by M***S on May 17, 2024*

Used for weathering model trains. Amazon’s review system is forcing me to review two colors in one review, so here goes: What this seller calls “Blue Angels Blue” is actually Vallejo’s “Deep Blue.” It looks like it would do very well for a Blue Angels jet, but they should call it by the right name. I used it to weather several CSX locomotives, and when mixed with some white, it did an excellent job of giving the CSX blue a faded look. If you need to depict mud splash in Mid-Atlantic states, this Vallejo “Dirt” shade is the stuff for that yellow-brown dirty/muddy look. Both colors hand-brush and airbrush well. I use thinner for airbrushing these, but I know others who don’t.
