MRP-A083 INSIGNIA WHITE ANA 515

Mr.Paint MRP-A083 Insignia White ANA 515 (MRP Aqua, 17 ml)

A modeling paint from Mr.Paint, from the Aqua line. The paints marked MRP-A are water-thinnable acrylics — unlike the classic MRP lacquer line they are thinned with water or the acrylic thinner of the same line, they have minimal odor and they are intended for the airbrush and the brush alike. Package: a 17 ml dropper bottle, with the paint pre-thinned to a spraying consistency. The shade Insignia White is the white for the national markings and lettering of American aircraft; the designation ANA 515 is the number of this shade in the American standard of aircraft colors. The manufacturer lists the paint as gloss.

Use

• Spraying the white parts of national markings (the star with bars) and the white lettering of American aircraft.
• White areas of the fuselage, tail surfaces and lettering wherever a model calls for this shade.
• Airbrushing through masks — on thin white stripes keep the pressure low and spray several light coats.
• Brushwork: thin coats, letting each one dry; white generally covers more slowly, so count on more passes.
• A light base (primer) under white markedly improves both coverage and the purity of the shade.

Who the paint is for

For modelers of American aircraft who want an accurate white for markings and lettering instead of a universal white off the shelf. A water-thinnable base suits building in an apartment, without extraction and with a minimum of solvents.

A water-thinnable acrylic. Shake thoroughly before use. Work in a well-ventilated room and use airway protection while spraying — even an acrylic paint forms an aerosol. Protect it from frost and keep out of the reach of children. Clean the airbrush and brushes immediately after use with water or the manufacturer's cleaner.
