Manufacturer

Tru-Color Paint

Product type

Model Paint

Manufacturer or supplier reference

TCP1357

The supplier description records the item as KAREKUSA IRO. That wording is useful for matching labels and invoices, but it should not be expanded into dimensions, contents or compatibility claims that the manufacturer has not stated.

The recorded shipping weight, when shown, is a fulfillment field rather than a physical specification for the item itself. Current price and stock are intentionally left to the live product page.

What the listing confirms—and what it does not

The verified record confirms the exact title, manufacturer, product type and available identifying references. It does not automatically confirm every dimension, material, included accessory, electrical rating or fit relationship. Those details should come from the current manufacturer instructions, the sealed package or direct inspection of the received item.

This distinction prevents a nearby product from being mistaken for the same release. It also keeps project advice useful without turning a reasonable assumption into a published specification.

Treat the color as part of a complete finish system

Tru-Color Paint 1357 Military Acrylic Color, Karekusa Iro (Dry Grass) IJA (1oz) is the Tru-Color Paint finishing product identified by TCP1357. Confirm the paint chemistry, stated color or effect, container size and recommended thinner or cleanup method from the current label. A similar color name does not guarantee the same formula or behavior.

Primer color, surface material, coat thickness and lighting can change the final appearance. Use a prepared test piece when color accuracy or sheen matters.

Test every layer that will touch the paint

Build a sample with the same primer, color, decals, washes and clear coat planned for the model. Follow the manufacturer guidance for mixing, thinning, air pressure or brush application, drying and curing. A coating that feels dry at the surface may still be too soft for masking or a strong clear finish.

Apply light, controlled coats that preserve small detail. Keep paint away from snap tabs, hinge points, electrical contacts and tight assembly surfaces.

Use a controlled workspace

Provide suitable ventilation and follow the label for eye, skin, respiratory, flammability and disposal precautions. Keep the container closed when not in use and prevent dried material from contaminating the cap or sealing surface.

Record the primer, thinning ratio, application method and coat count that produced the test result. That note makes repairs and future matching far easier.

Pre-use checklist

• Match the full title and reference TCP1357 to the package or manufacturer documentation.
• Confirm scale, dimensions, quantity, material and system compatibility where they affect the project.
• Inventory the delivered contents before discarding packaging or changing the item.
• Use a dry fit, temporary placement or controlled bench test before permanent work.
• Follow the exact manufacturer safety and service instructions for tools, chemicals, wiring or powered equipment.

Keep a useful project or maintenance record

Save the product title, manufacturer, reference TCP1357, order date and the equipment, model or scene where it was used. Add observations only after direct inspection: actual contents, fit, material behavior, installation result and any change made during the project.

Keeping stated facts separate from owner observations makes later troubleshooting, replacement and repeat ordering much easier. It also prevents a modification from being mistaken for an original product feature.

Image-verification note

No verified exact product photograph was available in the Muncle Mikes source record when this guide was checked. A generic Fusion Scale Hobbies logo or placeholder was deliberately removed because it did not show Tru-Color Paint 1357 Military Acrylic Color, Karekusa Iro (Dry Grass) IJA (1oz). Product identity is therefore based on the title, manufacturer, SKU or part number, stated scale or quantity and the current product record.

An exact image should be added only after it is matched to TCP1357 and approved for use. Until then, packaging labels and manufacturer documentation are the first visual identity checks when the item arrives.

Frequently asked questions

Does the product title alone prove compatibility?

No. Match the manufacturer reference TCP1357, scale or dimensions, material and system requirements to the exact project or equipment.

Are every tool, fastener, paint or accessory shown by the category included?

No. Only items explicitly named in the live product record or sealed package should be treated as included. Plan builder-supplied materials separately.

Why does this guide not show a product photograph?

The available asset was generic supplier artwork or a placeholder rather than an exact view of this item. It was removed instead of being presented as product evidence.

What should be saved after purchase?

Keep the order confirmation, product reference, packaging label, instructions and notes from the first fit, installation or use.

Can a similar item be substituted?

Only after the dimensions, material, quantity, connection method and manufacturer guidance have been compared. Visual similarity or a shared brand is not enough.
