Acrylic paint VALLEJO 70.926 — Red, 17 ml bottle, matte finish

VALLEJO 70.926 is a 17 ml bottle of red acrylic paint formulated for model painting and miniature work. This water-based matte color delivers high pigment concentration in a fluid consistency suitable for brush or airbrush thinning. The compact bottle with a dispenser enables precise, controlled application and rapid drying to a self-leveling, homogeneous film that preserves fine detail on models, figures and scale vehicles.

Advantages

This matte red acrylic provides strong coverage and high opacity with excellent pigment load, ensuring vivid color without multiple heavy coats. The water-based formula adheres well to common modelling substrates including plastics, resin, metal and primed surfaces. It dries quickly to a flat finish, is compatible with glazes and transparent effects from the same range, and can be cleaned up easily with water.

Suitable for

• Painting scale models, vehicles and aircraft
• Miniature figures and character detailing
• Hobby and craft projects requiring durable matte pigmentation
• Fine-detail brush work and airbrush techniques after thinning

Key specifications

• Volume: 17 ml
• Finish: matte
• Color tone: red
• Base: water-based acrylic
• Application: brush or airbrush (thin as required)
• Drying: rapid, self-leveling film

How to use

Shake the bottle before use to ensure uniform pigment distribution. Apply directly with a brush for controlled coverage or thin with water or an appropriate thinner for airbrush application. It is recommended to work on surfaces that have been properly primed to improve adhesion and color fidelity. Allow paint to dry between coats; drying is generally fast and produces a smooth, even matte film.

Usage recommendations

For best results, prime models with a compatible primer, thin paint incrementally for airbrushing, and perform test strokes on a spare surface to determine optimal dilution. Clean brushes and tools with water immediately after use.
