Acrylic paint bottle VALLEJO 69.064 Light Steel Grey, 17 ml

VALLEJO acrylic paint 69.064 Light Steel Grey in a 17 ml bottle is a water-based acrylic designed for controlled application on models, miniatures and hobby projects. The formulation offers a satin finish and is part of a new Mecha line developed for high adherence and impact resistance on difficult surfaces. Supplied in a small dispensing bottle, this Light Steel Grey provides a neutral mid-grey base for layering, detail work and mixing with other acrylics, while preserving fine model details after drying.

Advantages

The Mecha formulation contains an advanced component that improves adhesion and mechanical resistance, making the dried coating resistant to impact, friction and scratches. The satin finish matches the appearance of original plastic parts and maintains surface details. The paint is suitable for both brush and airbrush application; it accepts dilution with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and can be cleaned with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner. When applied in several thin layers on a primed surface, it forms a homogeneous, durable film.

Suitable for

• Painting scale models and military miniatures where neutral grey base is required
• Detailing and layering work on plastic model kits and resin parts
• Airbrushing and brush application for hobby and diorama projects
• Mixing with other acrylics to obtain custom grey tones or weathering effects
