ATOM NATO Color Set

ATOM NATO Color Set

The typical three-color NATO camouflage began to be used in the 1980s and is still widely used today. It became standard not only for the Bundeswehr and the U.S. Army, the scheme was also used for the military vehicles of many NATO members, such as France, the Netherlands and Turkey, among others. The camouflage consists of a three-color scheme of olive green, black, and brown and is one of the most long-standing camouflage patterns used by the largest number of countries and different vehicles. Some of the vehicles using this camouflage are the Leopard 2, M1 Abrams, M60 Patton, Leclerc, AMX-10, AMX-10P, VBL, PzH 2000, Marder 1, Puma, Boxer MRAV, Luchs, Fennek, Wiesel 1 y 2, Dingo, VCC-80 Dardo, YPR-765, the MOWAG Piranha series, LVTP7/AAVP7A1, M2/3 Bradley, M113, M117, M109 and M270, among many others. 

ATOM colors’ water-based formula behaves like a lacquer and has been optimized for maximum performance with both brush and airbrush. We recommended adding 30 % of Cleaner & Thinner (ATOM-20500) or Cleaner & Thinner Retarder (ATOM-20501). These paints stand out for being self-levelling, and quick drying, and for their covering power, making them unique to the market. In addition, ATOM paints are extremely durable, allowing for acrylics, enamels, and even hotter modelling products such as decal solutions to be applied over them once dry.  

These colors are presented in an innovative clear 20 ml container featuring a new cap that can be opened and closed with one hand. These paints are non-toxic and odorless.

• ATOM-20066 ATOM COLOR NATO Green 
• ATOM-20061 ATOM COLOR NATO BROWN
