Unlike traditional brush paints, this is designed exclusively for airbrush application, making it thinner and smoother for superior finish quality. Additionally, it includes features that support long-term usability, such as the ability to rejuvenate pigment with Tru-Color’s 'Rejuvenator' or Thinner after media evaporation due to packaging in soft plastic bottles.
