Humbrol DB0224 No 224 Dark Slate Grey - Matt - 14ml

Humbrol DB0224 No 224 Dark Slate Grey - Matt Acrylic Paint - 14ml is a high-quality product primarily dedicated to plastic modelers, though its universal properties allow it to be used on many other surfaces as well. Manufactured by the renowned Humbrol company, the paint in dark slate grey shade is perfect for painting military, aviation, and historical models, especially vehicles and airplanes from the World War II era—including British RAF machines that used this color in their camouflage schemes. Nevertheless, thanks to its versatility, it is also suitable for modeling work in other thematic categories.
