Standard camouflage colours of US Navy planes from 1943 till 1945
One of the most effective camouflage schemes of WW2 - US naval aviation "tri-colour camouflage" - was introduced in January 1943 and consisted of Semi-Gloss Sea Blue, NS Intermediate Blue and NS Insignia White (with blended borders between colours).
In mid-1944 it was replaced on all carrier-based aircraft by overall Glossy Sea Blue livery, which was simply more practical in terms of maintenance.
As far as the Atlantic Theatre of Operations is concerned - dedicated ASW variants (I & II) of the "tri-colour camouflage" were officially introduced only in June 1944 (probably in use much earlier).
The range of specially formulated lacquer based paints optimised for airbrushing. The product was developed to satisfy needs of all modellers – it is perfect for professional use (application of many semi-transparent layers, gradual building of colours / colour shading, application of very fine lines, etc.), but also very forgiving to beginners.
It has significantly limited odour compared to other similar products, hence is more suitable for home use.
All colours are highly pigmented and permanent.
