Review: Love them, nice pigment and flow Review: Very High quality paints - I grew up using petroleum-based paints which gave great color and finishes. Since my teenage kids started doing models, I have got back into looking at what they use. These water-based paints are great. Easy to use and with great finishes. ## Features - Waterproof, Durable, Non-Toxic, Odor-Free ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009162PWU | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #184,230 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #2,161 in Model Building Kits | | Brand | Vallejo | | Brand Name | Vallejo | | Colour | multicolor | | Container Type | Bottle | | Coverage | Full | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 5,128 Reviews | | Dry Time In Hours | 24 | | Finish Type | Matte | | Full Cure Time | 2 Hours | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08429551701402 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor, Outdoor | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Part Number | 70140 | | Item Type Name | paint | | Item Volume | 288 Millilitres | | Item Weight | 0.3 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | funko | | Model Number | VJ70140 | | Paint Type | Acrylic | | Part Number | 70140 | | Size | 0.57 ml (Pack of 17) | | Special Feature | Waterproof, Durable, Non-Toxic, Odor-Free | | Special Features | Waterproof, Durable, Non-Toxic, Odor-Free | | Specific Uses For Product | Interior/Exterior | | Surface Recommendation | Metal, Plastic | | Unit Count | 9.74 Milliliters | | Water Resistance Level | Waterproof | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vallejo - **Colour:** multicolor - **Finish Type:** Matte - **Item Volume:** 288 Millilitres - **Size:** 0.57 ml (Pack of 17) ## Images ![Vallejo Basic USA Colors Paint Set, 17ml - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51cxXhPHCdL.jpg) ![Vallejo Basic USA Colors Paint Set, 17ml - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616638vJuRL.jpg) ![Vallejo Basic USA Colors Paint Set, 17ml - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61un695O7TL.jpg) ![Vallejo Basic USA Colors Paint Set, 17ml - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618Gyz+9kZL.jpg) ![Vallejo Basic USA Colors Paint Set, 17ml - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61balTOs1bL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what are the colors?** A: Can we get the color numbers so that I can match them up with Revell and Tamiya equivalents? **Q: Will this paint work for air brushing?** A: Absolutely. I thin these with Tamiya X-20 thinner that previously had 10% retarder added to it. I thin at approx 2:1 and spray at around 15psi - I mostly use my Badger 105, Eclipse or Tamiya SF and haven't had any issue with them. You can thin these with any of the following: water, IPA, lacquer thinner or Tamiya but whilst water is best for brushing, it doesn't flow as well as the Tamiya. The lacquer thinners cause these to dry a bit to quick for my taste. Previous posters mention Vallejo's already thinned paint range for airbrushing called 'Model Air'. Be advised though that you are paying the same price for pre thinned paint so it is not the most economical way to go about it (especially with larger subjects like a 1/35 Jagdtiger) and should you wish to adjust your ratio its more difficult with pre thinned. **Q: Paint scrapes off? no matter what i put this paint on it srapes off way to easy. im trying to do plastic models and such but it dosent work.** A: Did you wash your model kit first? Models and some plastic miniatures have mold release agents on them from the manufacturing process, that slight film of release agent can prevent paint from sticking. Just a quick wash in the sink with a small amount of dishwash soap will help. **Q: Are all the colors "flat" or just the ones that say "flat" in the name?** A: All colors are flat finish. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love them, nice pigment and flow *by J***Y on 29 November 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very High quality paints *by J***N on 21 December 2022* I grew up using petroleum-based paints which gave great color and finishes. Since my teenage kids started doing models, I have got back into looking at what they use. These water-based paints are great. Easy to use and with great finishes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super Qualität und top Preis-Leistungsverhältnis *by M***L on 10 June 2021* Ich habe mir die Farben bestellt weil ich diese bei einem Youtuber gesehen habe und mir diese von der Verarbeitung her gefielen. Das tun sie auch in der Realität und dazu haben sie eine sehr hohe Deckkraft. Der etwas höhere Preis ist somit meiner Meinung nach auch gerechtfertigt. Ebenfalls lassen sich die Farben sehr schön dosieren und auch mit der Airbrush (verdünnt) verarbeiten. Mit Hilfe eines Haartrockner trocknen die Farben in sehr kurzer Zeit so dass man in einer Session auch sehr viel schaffen kann. Ganz klare Kaufempfehlung. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vallejo - Model Color Basic Colors USA Set | Modeling Acrylic Paints | 16 Bottles x 18 ml (0.60 fl.oz.) - Vallejo - Model Color Face & Skin Tones Set | Modeling Acrylic Paints | 8 bottles x 18 ml (0.60 fl.oz.) - Vallejo - Surface Primer Color | Black Acrylic Primer 200 ml (6.76 fl.oz.) | Matte Finish and Fast Drying | Perfect for Airbrushing and Great Adhesion to Figurines and Scale Models --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/162543073-vallejo-basic-usa-colors-paint-set-17ml](https://www.desertcart.in/products/162543073-vallejo-basic-usa-colors-paint-set-17ml) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
