Acrylic paint bottle VALLEJO 70.844 Deep Sky Blue 17 ml

VALLEJO 70.844 Deep Sky Blue is a 17 ml water-based acrylic paint formulated for model making, miniatures, crafts and touch-up work. This matt, opaque color from the Model Color range features a high pigment concentration that delivers consistent, even coverage and rapid drying. The paint is supplied in a dispenser bottle to allow controlled application and minimal waste. It adheres well to primer and common modelling substrates such as plastics, resin, metal and steel and can be used for brush or airbrush techniques when appropriately thinned with water.

Advantages

This Deep Sky Blue paint offers strong pigmentation and an opaque, matt finish that levels into a uniform film. Its water-based formulation permits easy thinning and mixing, fast drying and straightforward cleanup with water. The dispenser bottle enables precise dispensing and reduces spillage during application. Model Color paints are designed for good adhesion on a variety of modelling materials and for reliable behavior on both large surfaces and fine details.

How to use

Apply the paint to a primed surface for optimal adhesion and colour fidelity. Shake the bottle gently before use to homogenize the pigment. For brush application use the paint directly or thin slightly with water to adjust flow. For airbrush, dilute with water until the desired consistency is achieved and strain if necessary to avoid clogging. Allow each coat to dry before applying additional layers; drying time is short but will vary by layer thickness and ambient conditions. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

Test the colour and thinning ratio on a scrap piece or test model before working on a finished piece. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and keep tightly closed to prevent drying. Use appropriate ventilation when airbrushing and follow safety instructions on the product packaging.
