This U.S. Navy NEUTRAL GRAY 5-H No. 27 paint is a high-quality, solvent-based acrylic designed specifically for airbrush application. Packaged in a 1-ounce bottle, this paint is thinned with acetone and other media to ensure smooth spraying and exceptional coverage for model enthusiasts.

• Solvent-based acrylic formula thinned with acetone and additional media
• 1-ounce bottle size, ideal for detailed projects
• Airbrush-ready consistency, not suitable for brush painting
• Dries to a glossy finish suitable for decal application (non-flat or non-matte colors)
• Requires ventilation during use and easy cleanup with inexpensive acetone

Compared to traditional hobby paints, this Tru-Color paint delivers superior flow and finish due to its carefully balanced thinning agents tailored for airbrush use. Unlike thicker formulations meant for brush application, this paint applies smoothly and evenly, producing a professional appearance closely matching historical Navy standards used in 1944-1945. Its glossy durability also excels at supporting decals and finishing details.

Key Technical Advantages: This paint uses advanced solvent-based acrylic technology that enhances adhesion to primer-treated surfaces like metal and plastic. Its performance is optimized for scale modeling, delivering authentic color representation with historical accuracy. Even if the media evaporates over time when stored in soft plastic bottles, the pigment maintains quality and can be revitalized with Tru-Color’s dedicated Rejuvenator or Thinner, ensuring long-term usability for demanding modelers.
