Acrylic paint VALLEJO 71.092 Olive 17 ml, liquid solvent-free model paint

VALLEJO 71.092 Olive is a 17 ml bottle of water-based, solvent-free acrylic model paint formulated for model making and hobby painting. Presented in a liquid consistency suitable for both brush and airbrush use, this matt acrylic color is part of the Model Air range and is designed to reproduce military and historical color references with stable pigmentation and fast drying properties. The paint forms a uniform, durable film that preserves fine details on miniatures, scale models and diorama surfaces when applied in thin, even layers.

Advantages

This Vallejo Model Air acrylic is solvent-free and water-based, offering easy thinning and cleanup while reducing odor. Its liquid formulation allows smooth flow through airbrushes at recommended pressures and provides even brush strokes when applied by hand. The color dries quickly to a matt finish and creates a resistant, homogeneous coating that maintains small surface details. The product’s formulation supports dilution with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and is compatible with standard primer and airbrush cleaner routines.

Suitable for

• Airbrushing military scale models and vehicle camouflage
• Painting miniatures and figures with detailed surface work
• Touch-ups and weathering bases on dioramas and terrain
• Brush application for fine detailing and layering

How to use

Prime the surface before painting to ensure adhesion and uniform coverage. For airbrushing, thin the paint as needed with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and set compressor pressure to about 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Apply in several thin, overlapping layers, allowing each layer to dry rapidly before the next pass. For brush work, use thin coats to avoid obscuring fine details and allow adequate drying time between layers. Clean tools and airbrush equipment with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner or water after use.

Usage recommendations

To preserve detail and achieve an even matt finish, apply Model Air Olive in multiple thin layers rather than a single heavy coat. Store the bottle tightly closed and shake well before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution.
