It adheres well to fiberglass, polycarbonate, metal, lexan, and plastics, and after proper curing it maintains color stability when exposed to RC fuel mixtures containing up to 35% nitro. The matte finish and permanent pigments provide consistent coverage for customizing RC car bodies, helmets, accessories, and other surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStrong adhesion on multiple surfaces\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis paint bonds to common RC materials including polycarbonate, lexan, fiberglass, and metal. The acrylic-polyurethane hybrid resin creates a tough, impact-resistant coating that holds up during use. Many hobbyists use it for painting RC car body shells and other parts that see frequent handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFuel resistance for nitro-powered models\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor RC models running nitro fuel, paint can degrade over time. Vallejo’s formula is designed to resist the effects of fuel mixtures with up to 35% nitro content after the paint has cured fully. This makes it a practical choice for customizing the exterior of nitro-powered vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWater-based formulation simplifies work\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike solvent-based paints, this Vallejo color is water-based and non-toxic, making it safer to use indoors. It thins easily with water or medium, and cleanup is simple with soap and water. This makes it a popular choice for beginners as well as experienced painters. The 60 ml bottle features an eyedropper nozzle and flip-top lid for precise dispensing and easy storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey measurements and specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVallejo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 ml (2 fl oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaint type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcrylic-polyurethane hybrid\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSurface recommendation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal, plastic, wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpecific uses\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExterior\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions about this RC paint\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs it ready to use straight from the bottle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe paint can be used as is, but many users thin it with Vallejo’s premium reducer for airbrushing.
