The Mr.Hobby GSI-S15 Mr. Color spray is an aerosol designed to match the IJN green applied to Nakajima subjects, intended for finishing scale RC models and fine detailing rather than practical real-world coatings.
Good surface prep is essential: clean away dust, oils, and injection flash. When working with plastic parts, trial the spray on a spare sprue or hidden section to verify adhesion and colour. Mask carefully using modelling tape and paper to keep overspray off protected areas.
When applying, shake the can thoroughly, then spray in light, even passes, allowing flash-off between layers to prevent runs. Maintain a steady distance and smooth motion for consistent coverage. Always use outdoors or in a well ventilated area and follow safety advice for aerosol paints.
Aftercare and finishing: for accurate scale appearance use a primer compatible with the model's plastic where needed before spraying the base green. Once cured, apply panel-line washes and choose matt or satin clear coats to achieve the target sheen. Check compatibility with any additional weathering agents on a test sample first.
