Light Grey Su-27/33 (Russian AF – pale camo)

Light Grey Su-27/33 – pale camouflage (Mr.Paint)

A light gray shade from the lacquer line of Mr.Paint, one of the tones of the pale camouflage scheme of the Russian Flanker family fighters — the Su-27 and the carrier-borne Su-33. Together with the light blues it forms the cool, blended (disruptive) pattern typical of these machines. The paint is a solvent-based lacquer supplied ready for spraying, with a fine pigment, good coverage and fast drying to a smooth matte to semi-gloss surface.

Use

• Intended for an airbrush; the paint is ready for direct spraying and usually needs no thinning.
• If needed it is thinned with the lacquer thinner of this brand, not with water.
• Suitable as one of the shades of the pale Su-27 and Su-33 scheme; it combines with the other tones of the Flanker line.
• Apply it in thin coats; for soft transitions spray at lower pressure and from a distance.
• Once dry it forms a firm base for decals and for weathering.

Who it is for

For modelers of the Russian Su-27 and Su-33 fighters who build up the pale camouflage scheme from several tones and who work with an airbrush and lacquer paints. Mr.Paint lacquers are not primarily meant for a brush.

Lacquer-based paint: flammable. Spray in a well-ventilated space and with respiratory protection (a respirator), out of the reach of children and away from open flame.
