Product overview

Abteilung 502 Light Grey is an artist oil for illuminating darker colours and developing lighter areas within grey paint schemes. AK Interactive recommends combining it with other grey tones on figures and vehicles, using it in winter scenes and applying it to Panzer Grey finishes. The colour is also positioned for highlighting warships and modern military aircraft. Its combination of white and blue pigments produces a cool light grey rather than a neutral white mixing colour.

  • 20 ml tube, single artist oil colour (AK code AKABT170; former code ABT170)
  • Pigments PW6 and PB29, as listed by AK
  • Colour opacity: Semi-Opaque; colour fastness: 3 (AK scale)
  • AK use: illuminating darker colours and grey light areas; winter and Panzer Grey schemes
  • Also for highlighting warships and modern military aircraft
  • Reduced-oil ABT 502 formula for a more matte finish

Notes · Q & A

What's the difference between a paint and a wash?

Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.

Can I use these paints in an airbrush?

Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.

Do I need a primer?

Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.
