Metallic COPPER 2-oz bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint SPECIAL ORDER ONLY

• Shipping: Special order with 4-8 day lead time

Compared to traditional metallic paints, this product provides a more authentic metallic look due to its fine scale flakes embedded in the medium. Unlike other acrylics or enamels, it requires priming on metal and can optionally be used on plastics, ensuring superior adhesion and durability. Its thinner consistency is designed exclusively for airbrush use, elevating it beyond brush-on paints that often fail to capture metallic detail accurately.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

This Tru-Color Paint uses Acetone thinning media, allowing for smooth atomization and consistent metallic coverage during airbrushing. The pigment is suspended in a solvent formulation that dries to a glossy finish ready for decals without additional clear coats. Over time, the paint can be refreshed with Tru-Color's 'Rejuvenator' or Thinner to maintain optimal flow and appearance. Ventilation during spraying is required due to the solvent base, and cleanup is simple with common acetone products.
