Real Colors: RAF Dark Sea Grey BS381C/638 17 ml. - AK Interactive RC970

AK Interactive Real Colors RC970 is paint for static scale models that reproduces the shade RAF Dark Sea Grey BS381C/638. Supplied in a 17 ml bottle, it belongs to the Real Colors range dedicated to historical shades for scale models.

This lacquer-based paint is designed for airbrush application. It provides a satin finish and can be thinned with AK Interactive high-compatibility thinners RC701 or RC702, as well as with a thinner suitable for lacquer-based paints.

RAF Dark Sea Grey BS381C/638 corresponds in particular to a shade used on RAF fighter aircraft and tactical aircraft from the 1950s onward, as well as on certain Coastal Command patrol aircraft and British carrier-borne aircraft. It’s a suitable choice for reproducing documented British aviation camouflage schemes.

For a consistent finish, it is recommended to carefully prepare the model’s surface before painting. Applying a suitable primer helps adhesion and highlights any assembly defects. Once dry, the painted surface can receive weathering and aging products used in scale modelling.
