Description:
Tire Rubber is a deep, neutral gray-brown formulated to replicate the worn, dusty appearance of military vehicle tires, tank treads, rubberized gear, and boots. Unlike glossy or pure black rubber tones, this color reflects the realistic, matte finish of field-used materials subjected to dirt, heat, and abrasion.

Color Description:
Tire Rubber is a flat, charcoal-gray with muted brown undertones that closely simulates the patina of military rubber in the field. It avoids the unnatural sheen of true black, making it ideal for modeling realism. This versatile shade is perfect for ground vehicle detailing and any equipment with vulcanized rubber components.
This color was widely seen on U.S. military equipment from WWI through modern conflicts.
• In WWI and WWII, it was used for truck and tank tires, rubberized canvas, and gas mask hoses
• In Korea, it appeared on Jeep tires, tank treads, and boots
• In Vietnam, it featured on vehicle tires, pilot helmets, and rubberized packs and belts
Modeling Uses
• Paint tires, tank treads, rubber boots, hoses, and wheel wells
• Ideal for radios, binocular grips, flashlight handles, and rubber armor seals
• Use as a wash or drybrush layer over black to simulate dusty field conditions
• Combine with Dirt, Dust, or Flat Brown for realistic wear and terrain blending
