Acrylic paint VALLEJO 70.905 Grey 17 ml – liquid acrylic for models and hobby

VALLEJO 70.905 Grey is a 17 ml liquid acrylic paint formulated for models, miniatures and general hobby use. This water-based, matt and opaque grey paint offers high pigment concentration for reliable coverage and color intensity. Designed for brush-on application but also suitable for airbrushing when thinned, it dries quickly to a self-leveling, homogeneous film that performs well on plastic, resin and metal surfaces commonly used in scale modelling.

Advantages

The paint provides strong adhesion on a variety of substrates including plastics, resin and white metal, and yields an even, matt finish with excellent opacity. Its fast drying and self-leveling properties make it appropriate for both broad surface coverage and fine detail work. Water solubility allows easy thinning and cleaning of tools with water, while the high pigment load ensures consistent results across layers and weathering techniques.

Suitable for

• Brush painting scale models and miniatures
• Airbrushing after appropriate thinning
• Layering and fine detail work on figures and vehicles
• Weathering and shading techniques on plastic, resin and metal

Key specifications

• Finish: matt, opaque
• Volume: 17 ml
• Base: water-based acrylic
• Application methods: brush and airbrush (airbrush requires thinning)
• Drying: fast-drying, self-leveling film
• Surface compatibility: plastics, resin, steel and white metal

How to use

Apply the paint over a properly primed surface for best adhesion and color fidelity. For brush application, use thin, even coats and allow each layer to dry before applying the next to avoid obscuring fine details. For airbrushing, thin the paint with the recommended thinner until the desired consistency is reached and test on a spare surface. Clean brushes and equipment with water immediately after use.

Usage recommendations

For uniform results, prime the model with a compatible primer, apply several thin coats rather than a single thick one, and allow adequate drying time between layers. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place and shake well before use to ensure pigment is evenly distributed.
