Hataka C045 Air Defence Grey paint 17ml
Hataka Hobby C045 is a high-quality paint from the Orange Line series, a lacquer-based product optimized for airbrushing. The Air Defence Grey color (FS16473, ANA 512) is a key shade used in American military aviation.
Historical background and application:
This color was widely used on modern American aircraft, both in the service of the USAF (United States Air Force) and the US ANG (Air National Guard). In the 1960s, new ADC (Air Defence Camouflage) paint schemes were introduced for air defense command aircraft responsible for protecting US airspace. Since its introduction in 1959, this scheme has remained in use. Initially, FS 16473 was the standard color for aircraft such as:
- McDonnell F-101 Voodoo
- Convair F-106 Delta Dart
- McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II
Paint characteristics:
- Orange Line Series: Cellulose-based paints (lacquers) providing excellent coverage and a smooth surface.
- Optimized for airbrush: Ideal for professional techniques such as shading, building up colors in layers, or painting very thin lines.
- Finish: Dries to a durable, satin (semi-matte) surface.
- Odor: Reduced odor intensity compared to traditional modeling lacquers, making it easier to work with in domestic conditions.
Usage recommendations:
- Shake the bottle vigorously before use until the pigment is completely mixed (there is a mixing ball inside).
- Recommended thinning with dedicated Hataka Hobby Lacquer Thinner (HTK-XP03) in ratios from 40/60 to 60/40.
- Recommended airbrush working pressure: 10-20 psi.
- The coating achieves full durability and water resistance after about 24 hours from painting.
- The product is not miscible with water-based paints.
