Acrylic paint VALLEJO 72.406, Red, 18 ml, liquid

VALLEJO 72.406 Red is a water-based acrylic liquid paint in an 18 ml bottle formulated for detailed model making, miniatures and hobby painting. The fluid consistency supports fine brushwork, glazing and smooth layering while maintaining strong pigment intensity typical of VALLEJO acrylics. This single-color unit is suited for precise touch-ups, small projects and controlled blending with other acrylics.

Advantages

This acrylic paint offers a fluid, easily controllable consistency that allows for detailed strokes and thin glazes without clogging fine brushes. The formulation dries to a stable, non-tacky finish and mixes readily with other water-based acrylics for custom shades. Available in a compact 18 ml bottle, the product is convenient for localized applications and reduces waste when only small quantities are needed.

Suitable for

• Painting scale models and miniatures
• Fine detail and lining work on hobby projects
• Layering, glazing and color mixing
• Touch-ups and small craft applications

Key specifications

• Type: Water-based acrylic liquid paint
• Color: Red
• Volume: 18 ml
• Finish: Stable, matt to satin depending on thinning and layering
• Application tools: Brush, airbrush when thinned appropriately

How to use

Use directly from the bottle for fine detail work or dilute with water or acrylic thinner for glazing and airbrushing. Stir or shake gently before use to ensure pigment uniformity. Apply thin layers, allowing each layer to dry before adding more to avoid unwanted pooling or loss of detail. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

For best results on miniatures, apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat; thin the paint slightly for smooth blending and to reduce surface texture. Test compatibility with primers and varnishes on a scrap surface when combining different product lines.
