Vallejo 70.913 Acrylic paint 17 ml 1 pc(s)

Vallejo 70.913 is a matt, opaque acrylic paint in a water-based formula designed for brush application. It contains a high pigment concentration to provide strong coverage and a homogenous, self-leveling finish. The Model Color range offers basic shades and specialist tones for historical figures, vehicles, aircraft and military modelling; it also includes glazes, transparent and fluorescent colours for special effects. The paint is suitable for use on primed surfaces and dries rapidly, performing well on resin, plastics, steel and white metal. Brushes and tools are cleaned with water. The paint is non-flammable and solvent-free. Packaging: 17 ml bottle with eyedropper to minimise evaporation and preserve the paint for long-term use.

Advantages

High pigment concentration provides excellent opacity and colour fidelity. Water-based, non-flammable and solvent-free formula that cleans up with water. Fast drying and self-leveling behaviour yields smooth results on both large surfaces and fine details. Good adhesion on common modelling materials including resin, plastics, steel and white metal. Supplied in a 17 ml bottle with eyedropper to control dosage and limit waste.

Suitable for

• Brush painting of scale models and miniatures
• Historical figure painting where accurate tones and layering are needed
• Painting vehicles, aircraft and military models
• Techniques requiring glazes or transparent/fluorescent effects

When it may not be suitable

Because Model Color is formulated for brush application, it may not be ideal for airbrushing without prior thinning and testing. Surfaces that are unprimed or contaminated with oils or mold release agents may reduce adhesion; priming and proper surface preparation are recommended.

How to use

Shake the bottle before use and dispense the required amount using the eyedropper. Apply the paint with a suitable brush to a primed, clean surface.

For airbrushing, thin the paint according to the airbrush manufacturer or Vallejo thinning recommendations and test on a scrap surface first.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended application method (brush vs airbrush) and whether thinning will be needed
• Surface preparation and priming to ensure adhesion
• Colour match: Yellow Ochre tone may vary under different lighting and with different primers
• Quantity required—17 ml is suited for detailing and small projects

Usage recommendations

For best results use on primed models, apply thin layers, and finish with appropriate varnishes if additional protection or sheen is required. Store the bottle capped and upright to preserve the paint.
