Acrylic paint VALLEJO 71.336, grey, 17 ml, liquid, solvent-free

VALLEJO 71.336 is a 17 ml solvent-free liquid acrylic paint in grey, formulated for model making, miniatures and precision hobby painting. As a water-based Model Air/Matt acrylic, it is designed to preserve fine surface detail while providing a uniform, fast-drying matt finish. Supplied in a compact bottle, this grey acrylic suits brush and airbrush applications when thinned appropriately and is part of a range developed to match historical military color references.

Advantages

This solvent-free acrylic provides rapid drying and excellent adhesion on primed model surfaces, producing a homogeneous, matt paint film that retains small details. It is compatible with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner and Flow Improver for airbrush use and can be applied directly or diluted. The formulation minimizes odors associated with solvent-based paints and supports easier cleanup with water when wet.

Suitable for

• Model aircraft, vehicles and military miniatures
• Scale dioramas and terrain pieces requiring fine detail
• Touch-ups and detail work on primed plastic, resin or metal models
• Airbrush and brush applications after appropriate thinning

Key specifications

How to use

Prime the model surface before painting to ensure adhesion and an even finish. For airbrushing, dilute the paint with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or Flow Improver to the desired viscosity and set the compressor pressure to approximately 15–20 PSI (0.5–1 kg). Apply the paint in several thin, even layers, allowing each layer to dry before applying the next to avoid obscuring fine detail. For brush work, use thin coats and refresh the brush in water as needed. Clean airbrushes after use with a suitable airbrush cleaner to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

Use on primed surfaces for best results; perform a small compatibility test when painting over existing finishes. Store the bottle upright and shake well before use to ensure pigment uniformity. Avoid freezing and store at moderate temperatures. For airbrushing, maintain recommended pressure and clean equipment immediately after use to prevent clogging.
