Hataka HTK-C001 Dark Sea Blue (FS15042, ANA 623) – Solvent-based Model Paint 17ml

Hataka HTK-C001 Dark Sea Blue (FS15042, ANA 623) is a high-quality model paint from the prestigious “Orange Line” series by the renowned manufacturer Hataka Hobby, designed for demanding modelers who value precision and full control during the painting process. This product is a solvent-based modeling enamel that stands out thanks to its unique formula, providing a less intense odor compared to similar products from other companies, as well as significantly lower aggressiveness toward the surfaces of plastic models.

The Dark Sea Blue shade (FS15042, ANA 623) perfectly reproduces the color used on United States Navy aircraft, especially during World War II and in the postwar years (right after 1945). This color was widely employed on naval fighters such as the F6F Hellcat, F4U Corsair, SB2C Helldiver, and other machines used by the US Navy during Pacific operations and the early Cold War. With compliance with FS15042 and ANA 623 standards, Hataka paint ensures the authenticity of the historical finish for scale aircraft models from that era.
