Historical Context
Tamiya acrylic paints consist of water-soluble acrylic resins, making them perfect for both brush painting and airbrushing techniques. This paint can be used on styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, and all common model plastics. It offers excellent coverage, smooth flow, and easy blending. If necessary, paint can be washed off with plain water prior to drying.
When utilizing an airbrush, it's advisable to use one of the following Tamiya thinners:
- Tamiya thinners: Items-81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
Tamiya paint bottle labeling meanings and quick tips:
- Glossy Colors: X designated colors have a glossy finish.
- Flat Colors: XF designated colors provide a flat finish.
- Thinning: The paint can be thinned for airbrushing with Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner.
- Flattening: Use Items 81521 and 81021 (Tamiya X-21 Flat Base) with any X-gloss color, mixing ratio 1:1.
- Alternative Thinning: Tamiya Lacquer Thinner can yield faster drying and a harder finish.
- Brush Retarder: For optimal brush results, utilize Tamiya Paint Retarder (item 87114) for a finer brushstroke finish.
