## Summary description

## Long description

VALLEJO 71.053 is a 17 ml solvent-free, water-based acrylic paint in grey/black tones designed for model making, miniatures and precision hobby painting. Part of the Model Air range, this matt acrylic formulation is suitable for both airbrush and brush application after thinning with water or an appropriate acrylic medium. The product is supplied in a 17 ml eyedropper bottle that helps prevent evaporation and allows controlled dispensing for fine detail and touch-ups.
Advantages
The paint dries rapidly to a homogeneous, durable matt film that preserves small-scale detail on models and miniatures. Being water-based and solvent-free, it minimizes fumes and is compatible with common acrylic thinners and flow improvers. The eyedropper-style bottle offers precise dosing and reduces waste, while the formulation is specifically adapted for airbrushing at low pressure and for layering to achieve uniform coverage.
Suitable for
Scale models and military miniatures requiring historically researched grey/black shades
Airbrushing with low-pressure compressors (recommended 15–20 PSI / 0.5–1 kg)
Brush work for fine detail, touch-ups and weathering effects
Layered painting techniques and base-coating after priming
Key specifications
Finish: Matt
Volume: 17 ml (eyedropper bottle)
Base: Water-based acrylic, solvent-free
Application methods: Airbrush or brush (thin with water or acrylic thinner/flow improver)
Drying: Fast-drying to a durable paint film
Compatibility: Works over primed surfaces and with acrylic primers; clean-up with water or airbrush cleaner
How to use
Prime the model surface before painting to ensure adhesion and uniform color. For airbrushing, thin the paint with water or Vallejo Airbrush Thinner/Flow Improver to the desired consistency and use low compressor pressure (about 15–20 PSI / 0.5–1 kg). Apply in several thin layers, allowing brief drying between passes to build an even matt finish without obscuring detail. For brush application, use appropriate brushes and thin the paint slightly to improve flow and reduce brush marks. Clean tools and airbrushes with water or a dedicated airbrush cleaner after use.
Usage recommendations
Store the bottle upright, capped, and away from direct sunlight to maintain product stability. Test compatibility and color appearance on a scrap piece or a small area before full application. For best results on models with fine detail, build up color in thin, controlled layers rather than applying heavy coats.
