Baltimore & Ohio BANDO BLUE 1-oz Bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint

The Baltimore & Ohio BANDO BLUE 1-oz bottle is a superior solvent-based acrylic paint designed specifically for airbrush applications. This paint offers a thin, smooth consistency ideal for fine, detailed work, delivering a high-quality finish with ease.

• Solvent-based acrylic with acetone-thinned pigment
• Ready for airbrush use, not suitable for brush painting
• Dries to a glossy finish suitable for decal application
• Requires ventilation during spraying
• Cleanup with inexpensive acetone

Compared to the industry standard acrylic paints, this Tru-Color paint stands out for its perfect airbrush-ready thinness and vibrant color retention. Unlike thicker brush paints, its formulation prevents clogging and ensures smooth, even layers. The glossy finish is optimized for modelers who want a professional appearance, particularly since most colors dry ready for decals.

Over time, the paint may lose some thinner due to packaging in soft plastic bottles, but the pigment remains intact and can be easily restored with Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner. Use of a primer is recommended on metal surfaces and can also be applied to plastics for best adhesion and durability.
