Acrylic paint bottle VALLEJO 70.847 Dark Sand (Brown), 17 ml

VALLEJO Model Color 70.847 Dark Sand (Brown) in a 17 ml dispenser bottle is a matt, opaque acrylic paint formulated for brush-on application in scale modelling, miniatures and hobby crafts. The water-based formula contains a high pigment concentration to deliver uniform, saturated coverage and a self-leveling finish. The eyedropper bottle design allows precise dispensing, reduced waste and convenient storage for repeated small-volume use. The paint adheres well to primed surfaces including plastic, resin, metal and white metal and is cleaned up easily with water.

Advantages

This acrylic paint offers a fast-drying, homogenous paint film with excellent coverage and matt opacity suitable for both broad areas and fine detail work. The high pigment load ensures colour fidelity and consistent results across multiple coats, while the water-based composition is non-flammable and free of solvents. The 17 ml dropper bottle preserves the paint from evaporation and enables controlled application for delicate tasks.

Suitable for

• Scale models and military vehicle painting
• Miniatures and figure painting
• Historical and diorama detailing
• Small craft projects and hobbyist touch-ups

How to use

Shake or stir the bottle gently before use. Apply the paint to a primed surface with a suitable brush; thin with water only if a finer consistency is required for glazing or layering. Allow each layer to dry before applying further coats. Use the eyedropper to dispense small amounts onto a palette or mixing surface and avoid contaminating the bottle by returning used brush or water directly into it. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

For best results, prime the model with an appropriate primer compatible with acrylics, work in thin layers for even coverage, and allow sufficient drying time between coats. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed to preserve the paint’s properties.
