About product

From polished metal to gray

The Brazilian Air Force took over the Mirage III at the start of the 1970s and designated it in its own way, that is F-103E for the single-seat and F-103D for the two-seat version. For the first seven years or so they flew in a silvery finish that imitated bare metal. Toward the end of the decade came a repaint into a two-gray camouflage with a darker upper and a lighter lower surface, and the machines served out their time in it until the middle of the first decade of the new century. They were replaced by used French Mirage 2000B and C, for which the local designation changed to F-2000B and F-2000C. Those already wore the typically French gray-blue tones with a darker radome.

What the set covers

  • a semi-matte aluminum shade for the early silvery finish
  • dark gray FS 36118 for the upper surfaces
  • hazy gray FS 36293 for the lower surfaces
  • medium gray-blue FS 35164 as the counterpart of the French darker tone
  • light gray FS 36375 as the counterpart of the French lighter tone
  • darker gray FS 36320 for the radome

The silvery shade is the most demanding of all six. Metallic pigments need a smooth and glossy base, otherwise the difference between a polished panel and a matte area is wiped out. It is applied in one thin pass and going over it again is not recommended, because a second application ruffles the pigment and the area turns gray.

The remaining five shades are matte and behave in the ordinary way. Wait until the coat has hardened before applying a clear coat over it.

FAQ

The source material names the Mirage IIIEBR and DBR with the local designation F-103E and F-103D, and further the Mirage 2000B and C, carried in Brazil as the F-2000B and C.

On a smooth glossy base, in one thin pass and without going over it again. A second application disturbs the metallic pigment and the area loses its gloss.

One is the counterpart of the French lighter gray-blue tone, the other serves on the lower surfaces of the older camouflage. On a model they are used separately.

Yes, but in the right order. A lacquer coat is not damaged under an acrylic; the other way round does not hold, and the solvent softens and attacks the acrylic.
