Acrylic Model Paint VALLEJO 70.763 Model Color Canvas 18 ml

VALLEJO Model Color 70.763 Canvas is an 18 ml water-based acrylic paint formulated for scale models, miniatures and hobby projects. The paint provides opaque coverage with stable pigmentation designed to adhere to common modeling surfaces such as plastic, resin and metal. It is suitable for both hand brushing and airbrushing when properly thinned, allowing controlled layering, detailing and finishing of model surfaces.

Advantages

This acrylic paint delivers uniform, opaque coverage and consistent pigment flow for fine detail work and broader surface coats. Being water-based, it thins easily with water or dedicated acrylic thinner and cleans up with water while still wet. The formulation offers reliable adhesion on typical modeling materials and is compatible with standard hobby primers and varnishes when surfaces are prepared correctly.

Suitable for

• Scale model painting (vehicles, aircraft, ships)
• Miniature figures and wargaming models
• Hobby dioramas and terrain elements
• Touch-ups and detailing on plastic, resin and metal parts

Key specifications

• Volume: 18 ml
• Type: Water-based acrylic
• Coverage: Opaque
• Application methods: Brush and airbrush (airbrush requires thinning)
• Drying: Fast drying under normal ambient conditions

How to use

Shake the bottle well before use to ensure uniform pigment dispersion. For brush application use the paint directly or thin slightly with water for smoother flow. For airbrushing, thin the paint incrementally with water or a compatible acrylic thinner to achieve the desired viscosity; test spray on a spare surface. Apply multiple thin coats rather than a single thick coat to avoid runs and to maintain surface detail. Allow sufficient drying time between coats and use an appropriate primer on unpainted surfaces to improve adhesion and color fidelity.

Usage recommendations

Store the paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Close the cap tightly after use to prevent skinning. When airbrushing, use filtration and ventilation and follow safety guidance for aerosols and solvents. For long-term protection and finish control, apply compatible varnish layers after the paint has fully cured.
