Where can I find this in the U.S.?




The only thinners I can find are the Model Color 17ml (524) and Model Air 32ml (061) thinners but can't seem to find this bigger 200ml one. Has Vallejo discontinued these? This one doesn't even appear in their catalog...

Any help will be really appreciated.

Rob,
Redfrog Hobbies carries it and so doesThe War Store

Not sure if it's being phased out since it isn't in the catalog. I didn't even know they carried a 200ml size in this, the 32ml seems to last me a long time though.

Thanks for the head's up on those store, James! Checked with Redfrog and they don't seem to have any. I did find the other place when I was searching (before I posted this) but wasn't sure if it was a reputable place. I'll take a look at it.

And yes, I became aware of this larger size thinner when doing a detail search for the other two specific Vallejo thinners (524 and 061). I was surprised as well.

Thanks again,

Rob

The WarStore is GTG, ordered from them multiple times, never an issue.

The owner Neal seems like a standup guy.

I usually carry it, but my supplier has been out of stock for a month or so, so I am out of it at this time. Lots of the 32ml and 17ml in stock.

No discontinued by Vallejo as they just introduced that size less than a yr ago, likely just a matter of most suppliers being out of stock at the moment.

Thanks for the answers, guys!

Okay, so before I place an order, is this the same thinner as the one for Model Color (524) or the one for Model Air (061). I think I can use any of them to thin both lines but I wanted to know which one exactly does this larger size represent....(or is the only difference between 524 and 061 the size?)

Thanks again!

According to both Vallejo's website and catalog;

Thinner used to extend the colors, to increase fluidity and delay the drying time. We recommend the addition of a few drops of Model Air Thinner to the colors while airbrushing. The thinner can also be used with Model Color and Game Color.



I've used it for both Model Air and Model Color with equally good results. I haven't looked for a Model Color thinner since I use this only, so not sure if they make a specific one. HTH

Great, James, just what I wanted to hear!!!

Thanks,

Rob

Yeah, the thinner is the same, 524 (17ml), 061 (32ml), or 161 (200ml), all the same, just larger size and can be used with any of the Vallejo Paints, Model Color, Air Color, Panzer Aces and Game Color.

aren't all those paints acrylic scott?

They are all acrylic, not your Tamiya or MM style acrylic however.
