A modeling paint of the Italian brand Lifecolor from the UA range, the manufacturer's part number UA843. An acrylic paint with a water-thinnable binder in a matte finish, in a bottle of 22 ml. It is not a kit and not an accessory for a build, but a separate paint for brush as well as airbrush.

The shade and the standard code

The production name of the shade is Eisengrau and the standard code RAL 7011. The number is what decides: RAL is an internationally used standard of shades, so the same code means the same shade with every paint manufacturer, and the 7000 group is the group of gray shades. The German name is a production designation, not a description of the shade, which is why it is given here in its original form together with the code. The manufacturer places this shade among the period colors of the German railways of the Second World War period, which it also offers as the set XS17 German Railways Colors WWII Era.

Use

• Airbrush: thin with water or with Lifecolor thinner to a milky consistency and spray at low pressure.
• Brush: several thin coats, let each one dry through completely.
• On metal and on resin apply a primer first, otherwise the paint will not hold.
• Stir the bottle before work, the pigment settles to the bottom.
• Under decals give the surface a coat of gloss varnish compatible with acrylic.

Who the paint is for

For builders of period locomotives, carriages and railway equipment who want the shade by standard number. It is usable on hardware and buildings as well, wherever the same gray fits. Work in a ventilated room and do not leave the paint within reach of children.
