Vallejo XPRESS COLOR 72454 Desert Ochre - 18ml is an acrylic model paint designed for efficient and fast painting of miniatures and models.

Paints from the innovative XPRESS COLOR series feature specific properties that simplify the painting process and reduce the time spent on your model.
Key Technical Features and Application
Vallejo XPRESS COLOR 72454 Desert Ochre paint was created to achieve a shading effect with just a single coat. Its formula allows for quick and effective coverage of model details, while giving them depth. This is an ideal solution for modelers seeking professional results with optimized working time.
Product Features:
Slightly Transparent Formula: The unique paint formula allows for subtle, semi-transparent coverage that highlights the underlying details.
Fast Single-Coat Application: Designed for full coverage of a figure or model element with just one even coat. This eliminates the need for multiple paint applications.
Ready-to-Use: The paint is optimally thinned and ready for application straight from the bottle, eliminating the need for additional preparation.
Self-Leveling and Shading Effect: Once applied to the model, the paint self-levels, settling into recesses and irregularities, creating a natural shading and contrast effect.
Capacity: Standard 18 ml bottle with a convenient dropper.
How to Use and Compatibility
To fully utilize the potential of Vallejo XPRESS COLOR 72454 Desert Ochre paint, it is recommended to apply it to a properly prepared surface. The paint performs best when applied to a model or figure that has been previously primed with a white or gray undercoat. Light primers allow XPRESS COLOR paint to fully express its intended hue and shading effect.
The product is fully compatible with other Vallejo acrylic paints and modeling accessories, such as brushes, airbrushes (after appropriate thinning), and painting tools. Once dry, the paint forms a durable finish that can be protected with acrylic varnishes for additional protection and a matte/satin/gloss finish, depending on the modeler's preference.
