Acrylic paint VALLEJO 71.301 Green 17 ml, liquid, solvent-free

VALLEJO 71.301 Green is a 17 ml solvent-free, water-based acrylic paint formulated for model-making, miniatures and hobby painting. Supplied as a liquid in a compact bottle, this matt acrylic is suitable for both brush and airbrush application after appropriate thinning. The color belongs to the Model Air family, a range developed to reproduce military and historical tonalities with rapid drying, uniform coverage and resistance that preserves fine model detail.

Advantages

This solvent-free acrylic offers quick drying and a homogeneous matt finish that maintains surface detail. The 17 ml bottle provides precise control for touch-ups, layering and fine work. Its water-based formulation makes it compatible with standard thinning agents for airbrushing and easy clean-up with water or recommended airbrush cleaner. The paint forms a resistant film suitable for successive layers and mixing with other water-based acrylics from the same range.

Suitable for

• Model aircraft, vehicles and military miniatures
• Detail painting and small-area touch-ups
• Airbrushing and brush applications after thinning
• Layering, shading and weathering techniques on scale models

Key specifications

How to use

Prime the model surface before applying the paint to ensure adhesion and uniform coverage. For airbrushing, dilute with an appropriate Vallejo thinner or flow improver to the desired viscosity and set compressor pressure typically between 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Apply several thin layers rather than a single thick coat to preserve details and achieve an even matt finish. The paint can also be applied directly with a brush for small areas and detailing; clean tools with water or a recommended cleaner after use.

Usage recommendations

Use in a well-ventilated area and allow each layer to dry before applying the next. For optimal airbrush performance and maintenance, use Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner and follow the manufacturer's thinning guidelines. Store the bottle upright and tightly closed, at moderate temperatures, away from direct sunlight.
