Acrylic paint VALLEJO 69.505 Red 17 ml – artist/model paint, solvent-free

VALLEJO 69.505 Red 17 ml is a solvent-free acrylic paint in liquid form designed for artists, model makers and hobbyists. Supplied in a 17 ml bottle, this red acrylic offers a satin finish with enhanced resistance to impact, friction and rough handling. The formula provides excellent adhesion on a wide range of surfaces, retains fine detail once dry and is suitable for both brush and airbrush application when diluted as needed.

Advantages

This Mecha Color formula is solvent-free and non-flammable, combining a satin appearance with extra mechanical resistance and impact proof properties. It adheres well even to difficult surfaces and preserves the smallest details of models and miniatures. The paint dries to a homogeneous, durable coating that resists scratches and abrasion and can be layered for improved coverage and weathering techniques.

Suitable for

• Miniature painting and fine detail work
• Scale models and model kits (plastic, primed surfaces)
• Hobby crafts and small decorative projects
• Airbrushing for surfaces exposed to handling or wear

Key specifications

• Color: Red
• Finish: Satin
• Volume: 17 ml
• Type: Water-based acrylic, solvent-free
• Application: Brush or airbrush (dilutable with airbrush thinner or flow improver)
• Drying: Forms a homogenous, impact-resistant coating when dry
• Performance: High adhesion and resistance to friction, impact and scratches

How to use

Shake the bottle before use. For brush application, apply thin, even layers on previously primed surfaces and allow a few hours between coats for proper curing. For airbrush use, dilute with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver and adjust the compressor to approximately 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Multiple thin layers are recommended to achieve a smooth, uniform finish and to preserve surface detail. Clean tools and airbrush with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner after use.

Usage recommendations

Apply the paint to a previously primed surface and use several thin coats rather than a single thick layer. Allow sufficient drying time between coats for maximum durability. For airbrushing, keep compressor pressure low (15–20 PSI) and use recommended diluent and cleaner for maintenance. Consult the product safety information for handling and storage instructions.
