- Application: Paint brush-ready; requires thinning for airbrush use
- Clean-up: Easily accomplished with inexpensive acetone
- Packaging: Soft plastic bottle with pigment that can be rejuvenated if media evaporates
Compared to industry standards, Tru-Color’s flat paints stand out due to their rich pigment concentration and tailored viscosity for brush application. While many acrylic paints dry glossy, this flat oxide brown paint provides a matte finish ideal for detailed work and ready for decal application. In comparison to other models, Tru-Color offers the advantage of pigmentation that remains viable over time when revived with specialized rejuvenators or thinners.
Key Technical Advantages: Tru-Color’s solvent-based acrylic technology ensures strong adherence across multiple surfaces, including metal and plastics when used with primer. The thick consistency facilitates smooth brush application with minimal drip or run. Additionally, the ability to spray when thinned adds versatility for hobbyists and professionals alike.

- Requires ventilation during spraying and simple cleanup with acetone
Compared to industry standards, this Tru-Color flat paint offers a thicker consistency optimized for brush application, unlike many thinner paints that are solely airbrush-specific.

This makes it versatile for hobbyists and professionals who prefer hand painting but want the option to spray when needed.
Key Technical Advantages: This paint features a unique solvent-based acrylic formula that uses acetone for thinning and cleanup, ensuring fast drying and strong adhesion, especially when used with primer on metal or plastic surfaces. Over time, some thinner media may evaporate from the soft plastic bottle packaging, but the pigment remains intact and can be revitalized using Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner solutions.
