U.S. Navy OCEAN GREEN 5-OG (early 1943) 1-oz bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint

This airbrush-ready Tru-Color Paint is a solvent-based acrylic specially formulated for detailed modeling and accurate replication of the U.S. Navy OCEAN GREEN 5-OG color from early 1943. Designed for precision application, this paint delivers authentic color with excellent adhesion and finish quality.

• Solvent-based acrylic paint with pigment thinned using Acetone and other media
• 1-ounce bottle size, ideal for scale modeling and touch-ups
• Airbrush-ready consistency, too thin for brush painting
• Dries to a glossy finish (non-flat colors) optimized for decal application
• Requires ventilation during spraying and cleanup with inexpensive Acetone

Compared to industry standards, this Tru-Color Paint offers superior pigment quality suspended in a carefully balanced thinner mix, providing consistent color accuracy and smooth coverage with every spray. Unlike traditional thicker paints, this formula optimizes airbrush performance while maintaining ease of use in cleaning and application. It is recommended to use primer on metal surfaces and optionally on plastics to achieve the best adherence and durability.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

The Tru-Color line features a unique solvent-based acrylic technology that combines vibrant pigment suspended in a thin acetone-based medium, ensuring excellent flow and finish. Its paint formula is designed to dry to a smooth, glossy surface that enhances the appearance of decals and detailing. Over time, if the paint’s thinner evaporates from the soft plastic bottle, it can be rejuvenated with Tru-Color’s ‘Rejuvenator’ or Thinner, restoring optimal performance. This makes it a practical choice for modelers who demand authenticity, consistency, and ease of maintenance.
