Vert Fonce

Hataka Blue Line - dark green, 10 ml

An acrylic modeling paint from the Polish maker Hataka, from the Blue Line range, in a dark green shade. The name of the shade is French, which refers to period French color designations. Blue Line is a water-thinned acrylic with a high pigment content, tuned above all for brushing: it covers well and leaves no pronounced brush marks as it dries. The bottle holds 10 ml.

What the paint is thinned with

It is thinned with water or with acrylic thinner from the same maker, not with lacquer thinner. Do not confuse this range with the lacquer range from the same maker; the chemistry and the thinner are different and they cannot be mixed. For the airbrush thinning is necessary, because the paint is deliberately thick. Add the thinner in small amounts; an over-thinned acrylic loses its covering power and pulls into beads on the model.

Use

• Stir the paint thoroughly before taking any out, as the pigment settles to the bottom.
• For the brush the paint can be used unthinned.
• For the airbrush, thin with water or with acrylic thinner from the same maker.
• Build the dark green over a lighter base so that it does not lose its depth.

Who it is for

For modelers who paint with a brush and want an acrylic with good covering power and no solvent smell. It suits aircraft subjects just as well as vehicles and equipment.

Keep out of the reach of children, close the bottle carefully after use, and when spraying ensure ventilation and use respiratory protection.
