WWII US - Zinc-Chromate primer

WWII US - Zinc-Chromate primer - Mr.Paint

A Mr.Paint lacquer modeling paint in the characteristic yellow-green shade of zinc chromate primer, which was applied to the internal surfaces of American aircraft during the Second World War. This primer appeared in cockpits, cabins, landing gear bays (wheel wells) and on other unpainted internal parts. The paint is ready to spray with an airbrush, dries quickly and leaves a satin finish.

Use

• Airbrush application of the interior, cockpit and landing gear bay shade of US aircraft of the Second World War
• The paint is pre-thinned, and with a 0.3 mm nozzle or larger it usually needs no further thinning
• Spraying in thin coats over a suitable base is recommended, at a pressure of roughly 10-25 PSI
• Suitable as the color coat of interior details before further highlighting (washes, drybrushing)
• Clean the airbrush with the lacquer thinner matching lacquer paints

Who it is for

For modelers building American aircraft of the Second World War who work with an airbrush and want a faithful yellow-green zinc chromate shade. Because of the lacquer base it suits more advanced builders with airbrush experience.

A lacquer paint, and flammable. Use it only with an airbrush in a well ventilated space or with extraction, wear a respirator and protect your skin. Keep out of the reach of children and away from sources of ignition.
