Fiat Abarth Rally Monte Carlo Light Blue

Rally Light Blue: sky-toned stripe of historic rallying

Rally Light Blue is a solid pale blue taken from the livery of a classic Fiat Abarth rally car of the Monte Carlo era. In the 1970s, works and sponsor-backed rally cars used bold blocks of light and dark blue over white, schemes that still look fresh today and remain favourites on model club tables. This shade is designed to sit alongside the Rally White, Rally Blue and Rally Dark Blue in the same family, so the tones step down naturally. It masks crisply, letting modelers build up multi-colour liveries without relying entirely on decals.

The problem with livery colours

A livery colour only looks right next to the other colours of the scheme. Too yellow or too blue and the whole car looks off, especially once the decals go on. Spray the lightest colour first, mask, then work towards the darker ones.

How to apply

1. Shake the bottle for at least 60 seconds.
2. Prime with a white primer and let it dry fully.
3. Airbrush straight from the bottle, no thinning needed. Use a 0.2–0.4 mm nozzle at around 20 PSI (1.4 bar) and apply light, cross-hatched coats, letting each one flash off before the next.
4. Let the paint cure overnight before masking or clear-coating.
5. Seal with a water-based clear coat: gloss for a factory shine, or satin or matte for work vehicles and interiors.
6. Clean the airbrush with water before the paint dries.

Why modelers choose Koloi Aqua

• Ready to spray: no guessing thinning ratios, the same result from every bottle
• Cleans up with water, so there are no strong solvent fumes at the bench
• Fine pigment grind for 1:8 to 1:72 scales, so panel lines and detail stay crisp
• One system: primer, colour and clear designed to work together

Shelf life

Estimated shelf life of more than 12 months when stored tightly closed between +10 °C and +28 °C, away from frost and direct sunlight. Shake well before use; if the paint has thickened or separated and does not remix, do not use it.
