U.S. Navy GREEN 3-A (1941-1942) 1-oz bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint

This U.S. Navy GREEN 3-A (1941-1942) paint is a solvent-based acrylic designed specifically for airbrush use, providing precise color matching for historical and modeling applications. The paint comes in a 1-ounce bottle, pre-thinned and ready to use with airbrush equipment.

• Solvent-based acrylic with pigment thinned by Acetone and other media
• 1-ounce bottle volume for convenience and controlled usage
• Airbrush-ready consistency; too thin for brush painting
• Dries to a glossy finish suitable for decal application (except flat or matte colors)
• Requires ventilation during application and cleanup using inexpensive Acetone

Compared to industry standards and prior models, this Tru-Color paint offers an authentic color match to the original U.S. Navy GREEN 3-A shade from 1941-1942. Its formulation, thinned with Acetone, ensures smooth application and durability while maintaining historically accurate hues. Unlike some thicker acrylics, this paint is optimized exclusively for airbrushing, delivering a fine, even coat that dries quickly and enhances decal adhesion. Packaging in soft plastic bottles helps preserve pigment quality, and if thinning agents evaporate over time, performance can be restored with Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner solutions.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

The Tru-Color paint’s technology leverages solvent-based acrylic chemistry combined with Acetone thinning, enabling seamless airbrush application and excellent flow characteristics. The paint’s glossy finish after drying provides a professional, durable appearance while supporting decal placement and adhesion. Its ready-to-use formula reduces preparation time and improves convenience for model makers who require accurate, consistent color matching for historical military projects. Additionally, the option to rejuvenate the paint ensures longevity and reduces waste, making it both a practical and reliable choice for precision painting needs.
