Description
Air Reefer Gray delivers the same versatile and historically inspired color as its brush-on counterpart, but in a ready-to-spray formula for airbrush users. This mid-tone gray captures the utilitarian finish found on refrigerator cars, early industrial machinery, and structures from the steam and diesel eras. With a hint of warmth, it avoids the starkness of pure gray, allowing for more authentic weathering and aging effects.
Airbrush Tips
• Spray at 18–22 PSI for best coverage
• Apply light, even coats for smooth buildup
• Use over a primed surface (light gray or white recommended)
• Clean airbrush immediately after use with acrylic cleaner

• Maintenance Equipment: MOW flatbeds, signal cabinets, and utility trucks
