🚀 Introduction

Mr. Color C (10ml) by Mr. Hobby is a “standard” solvent-based (lacquer) paint range for scale modeling, designed to deliver a fine, durable finish with fast drying. In this listing you can choose your color from a very wide palette (whites/blacks, military tones, RLM, IJN/IJA, FS/BS, metallics, clears and varnishes).

Who it’s for: from those starting out with lacquer paints to advanced modelers looking for a hard, controllable coat with excellent airbrush performance.

What it adds to your build: solid coverage, vivid colors (including metallics) and a very reliable base for panel lining, decals, varnishes and weathering.

⚙️ Modeling use context

Mr. Color C stands out for its fast drying and for forming a hard film once cured, which helps with masking, handling parts and working on details more safely. It’s widely used for military kits as well as aircraft, cars and mecha/anime models.

• 🧪 Ideal if you want a “workhorse” paint for base coats and fine airbrush work.
• 🎨 Very useful for paints with particles (metallics) and intense tones where the finish really shows.
• 🧩 Perfect to pair with primer and varnishes in a consistent workflow.

🛠️ Application & tools

To get the best from Mr. Color C, the key is proper thinning and working in thin coats. At Robotines you can complete your setup with these recommended categories and accessories:

• 🖌️ For brushwork and detail: Brushes & accessories
• 💨 For airbrushing: Airbrushing
• 🧴 Thinners and additives: Thinners
• 🧼 Cleaning and maintenance: Cleaning

Thinning guidelines (common practice):

• 🖌️ Brush: if the paint feels “thick”, thin it little by little until it flows without leaving marks.
• 💨 Airbrush: thin for light, progressive coats; several gentle passes are better than one heavy coat.

💡 Recommendations

• 🧷 Shake the jar well and test your mix on a spoon or spare part before painting your model.
• 🫧 Work in thin coats: 2–3 light coats are better than one heavy coat.
• 🧯 Ensure good ventilation and use appropriate protection when working with solvent-based paints.
• 🧽 If you’re masking, let the base coat cure properly to avoid lifting.
