A modeling acrylic in the Dark Sea Grey shade of the Fleet Air Arm, a ten-milliliter package.
Responsibility details are not available.
Dark Sea Grey covered the upper surfaces of Fleet Air Arm and Coastal Command aircraft, usually paired with Dark Slate Grey and a light underside. Modelers reach for it on types such as the Firefly, the Barracuda or the Sunderland, and also on postwar machines on which this tone lasted long after 1945.
Stir the contents until all the settled pigment has come away from the bottom. A mixture that has not been stirred enough dries slowly and stays tacky, which is the most common cause of disappointment with the whole line. On non-absorbent surfaces choose the manufacturer's thinner; water suits paper, wood and other materials that draw the liquid in.
Apply the coat thin and preferably more than once. A unifying white base or a gray spray putty helps to achieve a cleaner final tone, because the paint does not sink into the texture of the surface or into the engraved lines. Whether the model will be matte or semi-gloss should be decided by the final varnish, not by altering the paint itself.
On the upper surfaces this shade usually alternates with Dark Slate Grey, while the underside of the fuselage and wings stays in Sky. The boundary between the fields on British machines was usually soft, sprayed freehand, so leave the transition blurred when building and avoid a sharp line left by tape.
