About product

RLM 78 (1941) – Air from AK interactive

A water-thinnable acrylic modeling paint belonging to the Air Series aircraft range. The range is conceived as ready to spray, so the paint is thinner than an ordinary bottled acrylic. For hand painting that means a different procedure, not a worse result.

The color and where it is used

RLM 78 is a light blue made for the undersides of German aircraft, typically in the fit for warm regions. The year in the name refers to the period interpretation of the shade, which the maker keeps separate from the later form within the range. The shade is light and clean, so any unevenness of the base shows up more strongly under it than under a dark color.

Painting on a small area

A thinner acrylic proves itself on exactly those small parts where a thick paint would flood the relief: canopy frames, instrument panels, landing gear legs, the inserts of covers. Hold the brush perpendicular, work with the tip and pick up little paint so that it does not run into the engraved lines. On small parts it is better to lay down three almost invisible coats than one that drowns the detail.

Use

  • The thinner is clean water or acrylic thinner, not lacquer thinner.
  • Stir before working, as the pigment settles.
  • On small parts pick up a minimum of paint on the tip of the brush.
  • It is a good idea to protect the dried coat with varnish before further masking.

Who the paint is for

For aircraft modelers who need a light blue underside shade, and for those who touch details in by hand after spraying the main surfaces.

A water-thinnable acrylic. Keep out of the reach of children, ventilate during longer sessions and close the bottle.

FAQ

The maker uses it to distinguish the period interpretation of the shade from the later form, which it lists separately within the range.

Yes, the thinner consistency is an advantage on small parts. Pick up little paint on the tip of the brush and build it up in layers.

Water or acrylic thinner. Clean the brushes and the airbrush with water before the paint dries.

An acrylic is more durable over a primed base. Before masking it is safer to go over the dried paint with varnish.
