Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

This Tru-Color paint incorporates a well-balanced solvent blend with acetone, facilitating efficient atomization during airbrushing and ensuring even coverage. Its solvent-based acrylic technology allows for quick drying to a glossy finish, which is ideal for applying decals with minimal preparation. The pigment maintains stability even as the thinner media sometimes evaporates from the soft plastic bottle, and it can be easily rejuvenated with Tru-Color’s proprietary thinner or rejuvenator solutions. Additionally, cleanup is simple and cost-effective using acetone. This particular version, offered by special order only, supports modelers looking for authentic U.S. Navy DARK GRAY shades with reliable performance and professional-quality results.
