Acrylic Paint VALLEJO 70.808 Blue Green 17 ml Bottle

Vallejo Model Color Blue Green is a matt, opaque acrylic paint formulated with a high pigment concentration in a water-based solution and designed for brush application. The paint dries quickly to a self-leveling, homogeneous film and is suitable for both large surfaces and fine model details. It adheres well to common modelling materials including resin, plastics, steel and white metal. Tools and brushes clean with water; the paint is non-flammable and solvent-free.

Advantages

The colour offers strong coverage and a consistent matt finish thanks to its concentrated pigments. Its water-based formula allows easy thinning and clean-up with water, while the eyedropper bottle minimises evaporation and preserves the paint for long-term use. Rapid drying and excellent adhesion across multiple materials make it practical for detailed figure work and vehicle or aircraft models.

Suitable for

• Brush painting of scale models (vehicles, aircraft, military models)
• Historical figure painting and miniature details
• Use on resin, plastic, steel and white metal model parts

When it may not be suitable

This matt acrylic is not intended for airbrush use without prior thinning or the addition of an appropriate reducer; for large-scale spray applications an airbrush-specific product or further dilution may be preferable. If a glossy or high-gloss finish is required, a separate gloss varnish will be necessary because the paint dries to a matte surface.

Key specifications

• Base: Water-based acrylic
• Volume: 17 ml (0.57 fl. oz.)

How to use

Shake the bottle before use and dispense the required amount with the eyedropper. Apply with a clean brush; thin with water if lighter washes or glazes are needed. Allow the paint to dry completely between layers. Clean brushes and tools with water after use. For best results, apply over a primed surface.

What to consider before purchase

• Requires priming of the model surface for optimal adhesion and colour result
• Not flammable and solvent-free—check certified safety data for handling instructions
• For airbrushing or glossy finishes, additional thinning or varnishes are necessary

Usage recommendations

Use the paint directly from the eyedropper bottle for precise, minimal dispensing. For fine shading and layering on miniatures, thin sparingly with water and build up thin coats to preserve detail.
