IJNAF J3 SP Olive Gray (Mitsubishi Special Paint)

Mr.Paint IJNAF J3 SP Olive Gray (Mitsubishi Special Paint)

Mr.Paint IJNAF J3 SP Olive Gray (Mitsubishi Special Paint) is a lacquer (solvent) modeling shade intended for airbrush spraying only. The paint is pre-thinned to a consistency suitable for the airbrush and ready to use; it can be adjusted with the matching thinner from the same maker as needed. The usual bottle size is 30 ml.

It is a special olive gray shade (Special Paint) associated with the aircraft of the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service built by Mitsubishi. The production plants differed in the shades of their paints, and it is precisely this Mitsubishi variant of olive gray that helps modelers distinguish machines from Mitsubishi faithfully from aircraft by other makers. The shade is therefore key to an accurate period finish on particular Japanese naval types.

Use

• a special olive gray shade for Japanese naval aircraft built by Mitsubishi
• it serves to distinguish Mitsubishi machines faithfully from aircraft by other makers
• applied with an airbrush only, in thin coats
• the paint is pre-thinned; for a finer spray it can be adjusted with the maker's thinner
• the best result comes over a cured primer and in a well-ventilated area

Who it is for

For more advanced modelers and collectors of Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service aircraft working with an airbrush who build Mitsubishi-produced machines specifically and want a historically matching shade. It is not suitable for brush application or for work without an airbrush.

A lacquer, solvent-based and flammable product. Use only in a well-ventilated area, away from open flame and sources of ignition; keep away from children. We recommend respiratory protection.
