Acrylic Air Paint VALLEJO Game Air Orange Fire 18 ml

VALLEJO Game Air Orange Fire is an 18 ml acrylic airbrush paint formulated for consistent, controllable application on models, miniatures and scale projects. The product is designed to provide an even spray pattern straight from the bottle for airbrush use and can be thinned with typical acrylic thinners to achieve finer detail or broader coverage. The water-based formulation dries to a durable, matte-to-satin finish suitable for layering, shading and blending on plastic, resin and metal modelling surfaces when used with appropriate airbrush equipment and ventilation.

Advantages

This acrylic air paint offers stable flow and predictable atomization for airbrush work, reducing clogging and spattering when correct thinning and nozzle sizes are used. The colour provides good opacity for base coats while remaining blendable for gradients and glazing. Being water-based, it cleans up with water or acrylic cleaners while remaining compatible with common acrylic thinners used in model painting workflows.

Suitable for

• Airbrushing base coats and mid-layers on scale models and miniatures
• Fine detail shading and soft transitions when thinned
• Painting plastic, resin and metal modelling parts
• Layering techniques and pre-shading before finishing

Key specifications

• Volume: 18 ml bottle
• Type: Acrylic, water-based airbrush paint
• Finish: Matte to satin depending on application and thinning
• Application method: Airbrush; can be thinned for detail work
• Compatibility: Compatible with standard acrylic thinners and cleaners

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure pigment uniformity. For direct airbrush application, test spray on a scrap surface to check flow and coverage. Thin the paint with an appropriate acrylic thinner or water in small increments until the desired viscosity for your airbrush nozzle and pressure is achieved. Apply in light, even passes, allowing thin layers to dry between coats to build opacity and avoid runs. Clean airbrush components promptly after use to prevent drying inside the nozzle and needle.

Usage recommendations

Use in a well-ventilated area and follow standard airbrushing safety procedures. Select nozzle size and air pressure according to the degree of detail required: lower pressure and finer nozzles for tiny details, higher pressure for broader coverage. Store upright, capped, and away from freezing temperatures to preserve performance.
