Airbrush Paint VALLEJO Model Air Interior Green 71.010 – Acrylic Model Paint

VALLEJO Model Air Interior Green 71.010 is a ready-to-use, water-based acrylic paint formulated for airbrush application on scale models and miniatures. This Interior Green shade is developed for painting interior details, bases and small components where smooth coverage, fine atomization and retention of surface detail are required. The fast-drying formula supports layering, shading and weathering techniques and can be used directly or diluted with appropriate airbrush thinner.

Advantages

This Model Air paint offers good flow and fine atomization for airbrushing, producing an even, matt finish that preserves small-scale detail. Being water-based, it cleans up with water when wet and dries rapidly to form a durable paint film suitable for further overcoating and weathering. The color is formulated to match historical references used in scale modelling, and the product is compatible with Vallejo airbrush thinner, flow improver and airbrush cleaner for consistent application and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Airbrushing interior details of scale models (cockpits, vehicle cabins, fuselage interiors)
• Painting bases, small parts and accessories on miniatures
• Layering, shading and subtle weathering on plastic, resin and metal model parts

When it may not be suitable

The product is optimized for airbrush use; heavy-bodied brushwork may require multiple coats to obtain uniform coverage and could reveal brush marks. If a non-matt or high-gloss finish is required, additional varnish or a different paint type will be necessary. Surfaces should be primed before application to ensure adhesion and correct color appearance.

Key specifications

• Type: Water-based acrylic paint, matt finish
• Formulation: Ready-to-use for airbrushing; dilutable with airbrush thinner or flow improver
• Drying: Fast-drying suitable for layering and weathering
• Application: Airbrush (recommended 15–20 PSI / 0.5–1 kg) or brush

How to use

Shake the bottle before use. Prime the model surface with a suitable primer and allow it to dry. Model Air Interior Green can be applied directly from the bottle or thinned with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver for finer atomization. For airbrushing, set compressor pressure in the 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg) range and apply several light, even layers rather than a single heavy coat. Allow each layer to dry before additional coats or weathering. The paint can also be applied by brush for small areas or touch-ups.

What to consider before purchase

• Requires primer for best adhesion and accurate color
• Optimized for airbrush application; plan for thinner if fine atomization is needed
• Matt finish; use varnish if a different sheen is desired

Usage recommendations

For consistent results and correct airbrush performance, use Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver for dilution and Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner for equipment maintenance. Apply in multiple thin layers at recommended pressure (15–20 PSI) and allow thorough drying between coats.
