Vallejo Black Thick Mud 26.812 is a dense, water-based acrylic texture paste for building substantial dark mud deposits on vehicle surfaces and diorama terrain. Its very dark colour represents peat-like earth rich in vegetal material, particularly ground found in humid woodland and northern European settings. The paste contains permanent pigments and is supplied in a 200 ml pot. Unlike the faster-drying effects in the Weathering FX range, Thick Mud requires an extended period to dry completely.
Dense Thick Mud consistency for built-up deposits.
Apply directly on the base without dilution.
Formulated with water-based acrylic resin and permanent pigments.
Supplied in a 200 ml pot.
Clean application tools with water and soap.

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.
