Compared to standard acrylic paints, Tru-Color’s formula ensures thinner consistency perfect for airbrushing, avoiding clogs and uneven sprays common in thicker paints. Unlike other models, this paint dries with a gloss that prepares it for decals without additional sealer layers. The use of acetone-based thinning provides excellent adhesion and durability on metal and plastic surfaces, surpassing many traditional model paints.
Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance
Tru-Color’s solvent-based acrylic technology, thinned with acetone, guarantees smooth, fine detail application ideal for armor scale modeling. Its airbrush-ready consistency prevents brush strokes and pooling, producing professional-grade finishes. The paint’s glossy dry finish supports decals better than typical flat or matte paints, enhancing realism in modeling. Additionally, the paint’s formula allows restoration by adding Tru-Color’s Rejuvenator or Thinner if evaporation occurs over time, making it a long-lasting choice for modelers focused on historical accuracy and quality.
