Tan (FS 20400)

Mr.Paint Tan (FS 20400)

Mr.Paint Tan (FS 20400) is a lacquer-based modeling paint from the Slovak maker Mr.Paint. It is not a kit but a paint in a 30 ml bottle, pre-thinned and ready for spraying with an airbrush straight from the bottle. Lacquer paints are thinned with lacquer thinner, not with water; they dry very quickly and form an extremely thin, smooth coat with strong coverage that preserves even fine engraving and surface detail. It is applied with an airbrush only.

Tan is a sandy brown shade matching the American FS 20400 standard. It is used for desert and sand camouflage schemes and for the light surfaces of vehicles deployed in dry regions. Choose the particular scheme and the combination with other shades according to your subject.

Use

• Applied with an airbrush only, in thin coats straight from the bottle.
• Sprayed over a cured primer, which evens out both the coverage and the adhesion.
• Fast drying allows early masking and the layering of further shades.
• For thinning and for cleaning use the lacquer thinner of the same brand, never water.
• A sand color for desert schemes

Who it is for

For modelers who want to paint a sand desert scheme on a vehicle or an aircraft in an accurate shade to the standard. Because of the way it is applied, it will be appreciated above all by airbrush users — from more advanced beginners to experienced builders.

Lacquer paints are flammable and contain solvents. Apply them with an airbrush only, in a well-ventilated space, away from open flame, and use a respirator or respiratory protection. Keep out of the reach of children.
