Acrylic paint VALLEJO 69.015 blue-grey liquid 17 ml

VALLEJO 69.015 blue-grey liquid acrylic in a 17 ml bottle is a water-based paint formulated for precise application on models, miniatures and small craft projects. The new Mecha Color formula provides a satin finish and enhanced mechanical resistance, maintaining fine surface detail while delivering a uniform coating. This small-volume bottle is designed for tasks demanding control and accuracy, and the paint is suitable for both brush and airbrush use when diluted appropriately.

Advantages

The advanced formulation offers excellent adhesion to difficult surfaces and improved resistance to impact, friction and scratches once cured. The satin Mecha finish preserves the appearance of original plastic and retains tiny model details. The paint can be applied in several thin layers to achieve a strong, homogeneous coating and is compatible with Vallejo thinning and cleaning products for easy airbrush use and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Scale models and miniatures requiring fine detail work
• Airbrushing surfaces exposed to handling and wear
• Crafts and hobby projects with small-area coverage
• Weathering and aging effects when combined with other Vallejo products

Key specifications

• Colour: blue-grey
• Finish: satin
• Base: water-based acrylic
• Volume: 17 ml
• Application methods: brush or airbrush (dilutable)
• Recommended airbrush pressure: 15–20 PSI (≈0.5–1 kg/cm²)
• High resistance to impact, friction and scratches after drying

How to use

Shake the bottle before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Apply the paint in several thin layers onto a previously primed surface, allowing a few hours drying time between layers for best hardness and adhesion. For airbrushing, the paint can be used directly or diluted with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver according to nozzle size and desired flow. For brush application, use thin, even strokes and avoid over-thick layers to preserve detail.

Usage recommendations

Use a primer compatible with acrylics before applying the paint and allow it to dry. When airbrushing, set compressor pressure to 15–20 PSI and clean equipment after use with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner. Apply multiple thin coats rather than a single thick coat to achieve optimal mechanical resistance and preserve surface detail.
