Historical Context
Tamiya acrylic paints are produced using water-soluble acrylic resins, offering excellent performance for brush painting and airbrushing. This paint is compatible with styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, and common model plastics. It covers effectively, flows well, and allows for easy blending. Before curing, paint can be removed with plain water.
For airbrushing, utilize these Tamiya thinners: Items-81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
Tamiya bottle paint label meanings and quick tips:
- Airbrushing: The paint can be thinned for airbrushing with Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner.
- Finishing: To create a flat finish on gloss products, mix X-gloss color with Tamiya X-21 Flat Base (Items 81521 and 81021) in a 1:1 ratio.
- Thinner: For quicker drying and a tougher finish, Tamiya Lacquer Thinner can be used.
- Flattering: Use Tamiya Paint Retarder (item 87114) for smoother brushstrokes.
