Humbrol Limited is a British toy manufacturer, producing under its own brand and the Airfix, Sky Marks, Young Scientist, 1st Gear, High Speed and W. Britain (William Britain) brands. On 31 August 2006, Humbrol went into administration.
Humbrol is possibly best known for the enamel paints manufactured for use with Airfix plastic model kits. The archetypal container was a 14ml tin with the lid coloured to illustrate the paint colour and an embossed reference number along with M, S or G to indicate Matt, Satin or Gloss respectively. Humbrol did, however, sell 50 and 120ml tins and spray cans in some colours.
