About product

The color

A modeling paint from Hataka's Orange Line. The shade carries the name Light Aircraft Grey and the designation BS 381C:627. BS 381C is a British standard of color shades in which every shade has its own number; paint makers refer to it so that it is clear which original a shade comes close to and so that it can be compared across brands. The number 627 in this system belongs precisely to the light aircraft gray.

How to apply the paint

Stir the bottle thoroughly before use. The pigment settles at the bottom, and unstirred paint gives a different shade and a different degree of sheen than you expect. Choose the thinner and the thinning ratio according to the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging, so always the thinner intended for this line. Spray in thin coats and let them become tacky in between; one heavy coat floods the engraving and rounds off the edges. The paint holds best on a washed, degreased and primed surface.

Before you use the shade on a model

Light grays are treacherous on large areas. In the bottle they look different than on a wing, and different in daylight and in artificial light. So it pays to spray a test sample on a spare piece of plastic, let it dry and decide only by that. In small scales modelers lighten large areas a little so that the model does not look heavy.

FAQ

The thinner intended for this line. The thinning ratio is stated by the manufacturer on the packaging, so follow it.

It is the number of the shade in the British standard of color shades. It serves to let a shade be compared across brands.

The volume is not given in the name; you will find it in the manufacturer's information on the packaging.

A large area and the lighting change the shade. That is why it pays to spray a test sample and judge it only once it has dried.
