U.S. Navy DECK BLUE 20-B is a high-quality airbrush-ready paint designed specifically to replicate the authentic color used by the U.S. Navy between 1939 and 1941. This 1-ounce bottle contains solvent-based acrylic paint that is expertly thinned and ready for precision spraying.

• Solvent-based acrylic paint thinned with Acetone and additional media
• 1-ounce bottle volume, perfect for detailed model work
• Drying finish: glossy suitable for decal application
• Airbrush-ready formula, too thin for brush painting
• Requires ventilation during application and cleanup with inexpensive Acetone

Compared to industry standards, this Tru-Color Paint stands out for its authentic color matching and ease of use in airbrushing applications. Unlike thicker paints, the thin consistency ensures smooth, even coats, making it ideal for scale modelers and hobbyists who demand historical accuracy and professional finish. This paint also outperforms previous acrylic models that lacked the precision thinning necessary for airbrush usage.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

Tru-Color’s innovative use of Acetone as a thinner provides a stable, long-lasting pigment that won’t evaporate over time, even though the thinner components might. This ensures consistent color quality and makes the paint easy to rejuvenate with Tru-Color’s proprietary 'Rejuvenator' or additional thinner. Additionally, the paint dries to a glossy finish, making it ideal for decal application and enhancing the overall appearance of your models.

The paint is specially formulated for durability and fidelity to the period-specific U.S. Navy deck blue color, ensuring your project will maintain both accuracy and visual appeal. Priming is recommended on metal surfaces and can be used on plastics to improve adhesion, helping this paint adhere well and deliver a professional-level result every time.
