Southern Pacific DAYLIGHT ORANGE 1-oz bottle (Airbrush-ready) Tru-Color Paint

The Southern Pacific DAYLIGHT ORANGE Tru-Color Paint is a solvent-based acrylic paint designed specifically for airbrushing applications. This 1-ounce bottle contains pigment that is thinned with acetone and other media, making it ready for seamless airbrush use but too thin for brush painting.

• Solvent-based acrylic composition with acetone thinning
• 1 oz bottle for precise airbrush application
• Glossy finish, perfect for decal application when not flat or matte
• Requires ventilation during spraying for safety
• Cleanup easily done with inexpensive acetone

Compared to traditional hobby paints, this Tru-Color paint offers a thinner consistency that optimizes airbrush performance, producing clean, vibrant color layers. Unlike earlier model paints, it dries to a smooth, glossy finish that is ideal for detailed decal work. While it requires a primer on metal and possibly plastics, its formulation is specifically suited to hobbyists seeking professional results on model trains or replicas.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance
Tru-Color’s solvent-based acrylic technology uses acetone as a thinner to enhance pigment flow while maintaining strong adhesion and vivid color. The paint’s thin consistency allows for flawless airbrush application, setting it apart from thicker acrylic paints. The glossy, durable finish ensures that decals adhere perfectly, making it a top choice among model painters. Additionally, the paint’s formulation allows for easy rejuvenation with Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner, extending its usability over time despite evaporation of some media in the soft plastic bottle packaging.
