DB0153 Acrylic Paint - 153: Insignia Red - Matt - 14ml

Humbrol No. 153 Insignia Red is a water-based Acrylic paint with a Matt finish, supplied in a 14ml dropper bottle. It was developed for plastic model kits and resin models, and works on many other substrates too. Humbrol has been the modeller's standard for decades, and this formula gives high opacity with rich pigmentation. Satin, Gloss and Metallic versions are also available.

Key Features

• Matt finish in Insignia Red, Humbrol No. 153
• 1x 14ml dropper bottle for dispensing precise quantities onto a palette or into an airbrush cup
• High opacity: two thin coats give a consistent, even colour
• Self-levelling resin system for a uniform surface that stands up to handling and later weathering
• Touch-dry in 20 - 40 mins; hard-dry in 1 - 2 hours
• Water-based and low-odour, so brushes wash out in water or Acrylic Thinners while wet, cellulose once dry

Ideal For

• Plastic model kits and resin models
• Most plastics, resin, wood, glass, ceramics, metal, cardboard and sealed plaster
• Buffer beams, nameplates and livery detail on British outline model railways

How to Use

Brush straight from the bottle or from a palette. For airbrushing, thin with water or Acrylic Thinners at 2 parts paint to 1 part thinner. Two thin coats are preferable to one thick coat, so let the first coat hard-dry before applying the second. Thinning also shortens drying times. Suitable for ages 3 and above, and non-toxic when dry.
