U.S. Army OLIVE DRAB No. 1 (Armor 1944-1945 all theaters) 1-oz bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint

This product is a solvent-based acrylic paint designed specifically for airbrush applications, offering a thin yet vibrant coating ideal for detailed model work. It delivers historical accuracy by replicating the U.S. Army Armor Olive Drab No. 1 color used during 1944-1945 across all theaters.

• Solvent-based acrylic formula thinned with Acetone and additional media
• 1-ounce airbrush-ready bottle, unsuitable for brush painting due to thin consistency
• Dries to a glossy finish suitable for decal application except flat or matte colors
• Requires ventilation when spraying for safety
• Easy cleanup with inexpensive Acetone

Compared to industry standards, this Tru-Color paint offers superior pigment concentration, although care must be taken to maintain the thinner content since the soft plastic bottle packaging may allow evaporation over time. Unlike older or less specialized military model paints, it can be rejuvenated easily using Tru-Color’s ‘Rejuvenator’ or a compatible thinner, extending the life and usability of the product.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

The paint’s high solubility in Acetone ensures consistent flow and coverage during airbrushing, while its solvent-based acrylic composition guarantees durability and a vibrant finish. Its readiness for decal application without additional treatment speeds up the modeling process. Additionally, its compatibility with primers on metals and plastics enhances its versatility in various modeling projects.
