Historical Context
Tamiya acrylic paints are formulated from water-soluble acrylic resins, making them suitable for both brush painting and airbrushing. These paints are effective on styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, and all common plastic types used in modeling. They offer excellent coverage, smooth flow, and easy blending. The paint can be washed away with plain water before it cures.
For airbrushing, it is crucial to use the recommended Tamiya thinners: Items-81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
Tamiya bottle paint label meanings and quick tips:
- Finishing: X designated colors have a glossy finish while XF designated colors are flat.
- Thinner: The paint can be thinned for airbrushing with Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner.
- Flattering: Items 81521 and 81021 (Tamiya X-21 Flat Base) can be added to glossy colors to create a flat finish. Use a mixing ratio of 1:1.
- Airbrushing: Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner results in faster drying and a harder finish.
- Finishing: Tamiya Paint Retarder (item 87114) helps achieve a smoother paint finish when brushing.
