Description
Light Green: pastel gloss green with retro charm
Light green is a soft, pastel shade with a distinctly vintage feel. Tones like this were common on 1950s and 1960s passenger cars, scooters, vans and household appliances, and they often appear in two-tone schemes combined with white or cream. It is also used on locomotives and trams, on civil aircraft interiors and on buildings and props in dioramas. For a clean, bright finish that stays true to the pastel tone, spray it over a white primer in thin coats.
Getting the tone right
Blues, greens and purples change character with the primer underneath and the number of coats. Build the colour in light, even passes over the recommended primer and you get the same tone on every panel.
How to apply
- Shake the bottle for at least 60 seconds.
- Prime with a white primer and let it dry fully.
- 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.
- Let the paint cure overnight before masking or clear-coating.
- Seal with a water-based clear coat: gloss for a factory shine, or satin or matte for work vehicles and interiors.
- Clean the airbrush with water before the paint dries.
