Vallejo Model Air - Light Rust

The first layer of any good rust effect — a light, oxidised orange-brown for streaks, chips and weathered metal. Sprays fine for controlled, subtle grime.

At a glance

Best for

• Spraying straight from the bottle through fine airbrush needles
• Thinning further with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner or a 50/50 thinner and distilled water mix
• Rust streaks, chipping and weathered metal

Shake it well and build up in light passes for controlled, believable grime.

The perfect first step in a layered rust effect. Pair it with a matching primer and a few complementary Model Air shades to round out the palette.
