Vallejo Dark Brown Wash

Dark Brown is the go-to wash for grime, old leather, weathered wood and warm rust streaks. Vallejo Model Wash flows straight into panel lines, rivets and recesses, drying to a matt finish that instantly pulls out detail and adds the accumulated dirt of hard use. Brush or airbrush it on, give it 20 minutes, and carry on painting.
