It is come to our attention through forums, emails and searching the web that many military paint colors require mixing various colors to get to the end product needed for a particular color scheme. That is NOT the case with Tru-Color Paint. The ENTIRE military paint line from Tru-Color Paint is designed to get the modeler started to paint his or her model without the need to figure out what how do I mix 2 or more paints together to get the end product.

Thus if you need 5-L Light Gray for 1941 we have it, if it is Cavite Blue, we have it if it any one of the 20+ greens and browns of the Pacific theater we have it. There is no need to fiddle with multiple colors to get what you need. By the middle of 2018 we will have a minimum of 26 AFV colors for U.S. Forces from WWII to present, over 60 colors for U.S. Navy colors from WWII to present and over 40 colors for U.S. Air Force for the same period.

This does not even take into account the ancillary products - matte muds, dusts, rusts for detailing models and dioramas which are in the TCP-400 series of paint products.

ALL of the TCP-1000, 1200 and 1400 series of military paints AND the TCP-400 matte series are ready to spray from the bottle with little or no thinning. Are you tired of formulating your own blends and missing the match ?

Let us know what you think about being able to purchase accurate ready to spray paint for your models.

Tru-Color Paint is a solvent based paint that uses an acrylic polymer to bind the pigments we use to the model being painted. Nearly the entire product lines are designed to be air brush sprayed directly from the bottle. Depending on the pressure (we recommend 28-35 PSI for best results) and age of the airbrush and tip, the modeler needs to add very little thinner - 1 or 2 eyedroppers full of thinner per bottle of paint, or none at all. It also depends on the age of the bottle of paint in use - some solvents may evaporate over time and since our paint does not cure, it can be reconstituted by adding our TCP-015, Thinner and/or TCP-310 Retarder.

Trust this helps. Let us know if any other questions need attention.
