Acrylic paint VALLEJO 69.028 Olive Green 17 ml liquid, solvent-free

VALLEJO 69.028 Olive Green is a 17 ml liquid acrylic hobby paint formulated for modelers, miniaturists and craft enthusiasts who need a solvent-free, water-based color with consistent coverage. This satin-finish paint is part of the Mecha Color line and features an advanced binder that improves adhesion and impact resistance on primed surfaces, preserving fine details while producing a uniform coating once dry. Supplied in a single 17 ml bottle, the paint is suitable for brush work, airbrushing when thinned, layering, touch-ups and precise detail painting.

Advantages

The solvent-free formulation provides reliable, stable pigments with a satin finish that resists impact, friction and handling. Mecha Color’s improved adhesion helps the paint bond to difficult surfaces and maintain the model’s original surface texture and details. This liquid acrylic is compatible with standard water-based thinning and cleaning products and delivers even coverage over primed areas with multiple thin layers to build the desired opacity.

Suitable for

• Scale models and plastic miniatures
• Airbrushing and brush painting of hobby projects
• Layering, weathering bases and fine detail work
• Touch-ups and small repair painting on primed surfaces

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use. For brush application use directly from the bottle or slightly diluted to improve flow. For airbrushing, thin the paint with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver to the desired consistency and set the compressor to approximately 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Apply several thin, even layers on a previously primed surface, allowing a few hours of drying between layers to achieve a uniform, durable coating. Clean brushes and airbrush components with a suitable water-based cleaner after use.

Usage recommendations

Apply Mecha Color in thin coats over a compatible primer for best adhesion and durability. When airbrushing, maintain moderate compression (15–20 PSI) and perform regular airbrush cleaning with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner to prevent clogging and preserve color consistency.
