Historical Context
Tamiya acrylic paints are formulated using water-soluble acrylic resins, making them perfect for brush painting or airbrush application. These paints adhere well on a variety of materials, including styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, and most common model plastics. Users can expect excellent coverage, smooth flow, and easy blending. Additionally, before the paint cures, it can be effortlessly washed off with plain water.
For airbrushing, it is important to utilize Tamiya thinners such as:
- Thinner: Items-81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
Tamiya paint label meanings and quick tips:
- Colors: X designated colors provide a glossy finish while XF colors offer a flat finish.
- Thinning: The paint can be thinned with Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner for airbrush use.
- Flattening: For a flattening effect, mix any X-gloss color with Tamiya X-21 Flat Base (Items 81521 and 81021) at a 1:1 ratio.
- Advanced thinning: Tamiya Lacquer Thinner can also be used for airbrushing, yielding quicker drying times and a tougher finish.
- Brushing: To enhance brushing results, incorporate Tamiya Paint Retarder (item 87114) for a smoother finish, free of brush strokes.
