Compared to standard model paints, this Tru-Color paint is specifically airbrush-ready, making it too thin for brush painting but perfect for achieving the smooth, detailed application required in modeling and restoration. Unlike other paints that may require extensive cleanup, this paint cleans up easily with inexpensive acetone. Additionally, it dries to a glossy finish ideal for decal application, which enhances the final look of your project.

Key Technical Advantages: The paint’s formulation using acetone ensures quick drying and superior adhesion when used with proper primer, especially on metal surfaces. The packaging in soft plastic bottles allows for convenient dispensing, though some thinning media may evaporate over time. This pigment can be revitalized using Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner, extending the life and usability of the paint. Special ordering ensures fresh product quality, shipped within 4-8 days when ordered early Monday mornings.
