Acrylic Airbrush Paint VALLEJO Game Air Magic Blue 18 ml

VALLEJO Game Air Magic Blue 18 ml is an acrylic paint formulated specifically for airbrush application. This water-based model paint offers a balanced pigment load and a factory-thinned consistency that supports smooth atomization and uniform coverage on miniatures, scale models and wargaming figures. The 18 ml bottle is designed for hobby use and provides easy wash-up with water, making it suitable for both experienced airbrush users and hobbyists seeking predictable spray behavior.

Advantages

The paint delivers consistent pigmentation and a fine, even finish when used with an airbrush. Being water-based, it allows straightforward thinning and cleaning without aggressive solvents. The pre-thinned formulation reduces the need for additional mixing for most airbrush setups, while the acrylic binder ensures good adhesion to common modeling materials such as plastic, resin and primed metal. The 18 ml size is convenient for controlled color application and minimal waste.

• Miniature painting for tabletop wargames

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Pour a small amount into the airbrush cup or bottle and test-spray on a scrap surface. Although pre-thinned for airbrush use, adjust viscosity by adding a small quantity of water or compatible thinner if necessary for your nozzle size and pressure settings. Apply in thin, even passes, allowing each layer to dry briefly before applying the next to avoid runs and pooling. Clean the airbrush and tools with water immediately after use to prevent paint buildup.

Usage recommendations

Use a suitable primer before applying Game Air Magic Blue for improved adhesion and color fidelity. For fine details and controlled edges, work at moderate air pressure (15–25 psi / 1.0–1.7 bar) and keep the airbrush moving. Store bottles upright in a cool, dry place and tightly close the cap after use to preserve paint quality.
