Acrylic Model Paint Vallejo Building Colors — Black/Brown/Grey/Red/White, Matte, 17 ml bottle

VALLEJO Building Colors — Black/Brown/Grey/Red/White is a set of matte acrylic model paints supplied in 17 ml dispenser bottles. Designed for scale models, dioramas and architectural miniatures, this selection of core building tones offers consistent pigmentation and coverage suitable for basecoating, layering and detailing. The formula is water-based, dries quickly to a matte finish and can be applied with a brush or through an airbrush when properly thinned.

Advantages

The paints deliver uniform coverage and controlled flow for precise application on plastic, resin and primed surfaces. Quick drying minimizes waiting time between coats while preserving workability for blending and weathering techniques. Bottles feature a dispenser cap that helps reduce waste and simplifies dispensing small quantities for mixing or direct use.

Suitable for

• Basecoating and layering on scale model kits

How to use

Shake each bottle well before use to ensure uniform pigment suspension. For brush application use straight from the bottle or thin slightly with water or acrylic thinner for smoother flow. For airbrushing, strain if necessary and thin according to the airbrush type and nozzle size; start with small adjustments until the desired spray pattern is achieved. Apply thin, even coats and allow each coat to dry before applying the next to avoid pooling and preserve the matte finish.

Usage recommendations

Test compatibility on a small primed area before large-scale application. Store bottles upright in a cool, dry place and reseal caps after use to maintain consistency. Use appropriate primers for best adhesion on different substrates and clean brushes and airbrushes promptly after use with water or recommended cleaners.
