## Summary description

VALLEJO Model Air acrylic paint 71.072 in Gunmetal (metallic grey) is supplied in a 17 ml bottle with a drip dispenser. Water-based, fine-pigmented model paint suitable for airbrushing and brush work on plastic, resin and metal miniatures, scale models and hobby projects where a metallic grey finish is required.

## Long description

VALLEJO Model Air 71.072 Gunmetal is a water-based, matt acrylic paint formulated for airbrushing and brush application. Supplied in a 17 ml bottle with an eyedropper, this fine-pigmented metallic grey is suitable for plastic, resin and metal miniatures, scale models and other hobby projects where a gunmetal finish is required. The Model Air range reproduces historical military colors and offers fast-drying, durable coverage while preserving fine surface detail.
Advantages
The paint is water-based and non-flammable, with a formulation especially developed for airbrushing that produces a homogeneous film and fast drying. It can be used straight from the bottle or diluted with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver, and it preserves fine model details. Packaging with an eyedropper reduces evaporation and allows precise dispensing of small quantities.
Suitable for
Airbrushing plastic, resin and metal miniatures and scale models
Brush painting details and small parts that require a metallic grey finish
Military and vehicle models where historical metallic tones are needed
When it may not be suitable
If a high-gloss metallic finish is required, additional clear gloss varnish may be needed since Model Air has a matt appearance. Very large surface areas may require multiple passes or larger quantities due to the 17 ml bottle size. For projects demanding solvent-based coatings or specific industrial-grade metal finishes, a solvent-based metal paint would be more appropriate.
Key specifications
Finish: Matt metallic grey (gunmetal)
Base: Water-based acrylic
Volume: 17 ml (0.57 fl.oz.)
Application: Airbrush or brush
Drying: Fast-drying, forms a durable, homogeneous film
Compatibility: Suitable for plastic, resin and metal surfaces
How to use
Prime the surface before painting. For airbrushing, use undiluted or thin with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver; recommended compressor pressure is 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Apply in several thin layers to build coverage, allowing each layer to dry. The paint can also be applied with a brush for detail work. Clean the airbrush after use with Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner for proper maintenance.
What to consider before purchase
Bottle size is 17 ml—suitable for detail work and small projects but may be limited for very large surfaces
Matte metallic finish may require a topcoat if a gloss appearance is desired
Water-based formula requires water or Vallejo-compatible thinners for dilution
Usage recommendations
Use thin, even layers when airbrushing at 15–20 PSI and allow rapid drying between coats; store the bottle capped to prevent evaporation and use Vallejo Airbrush Cleaner for equipment care.
