Historical Context
Tamiya acrylic paints are formulated with water-soluble acrylic resins, making them ideal for both brush painting and airbrushing. These paints are compatible with styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, and a variety of common model plastics. Known for their excellent coverage and smooth flow, these pigments can be easily blended and cleaned up with plain water before curing.
When using an airbrush, it is essential to pair these paints with the appropriate Tamiya thinners: Items-81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
Tamiya bottle paint label meanings and quick tips:
- Airbrushing:
Paint can be thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner or Tamiya Lacquer Thinner for faster drying results and a harder finish. - Finishing:
Items 81521 and 81021 (Tamiya X-21 Flat Base) can be added to Tamiya Gloss bottle paints for a flatter finish. Mixing ratio: 1:1. - Thinner:
Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner provides a quicker drying experience and a tougher finish. - Flattering:
For a smoother, streak-free paint application, use Tamiya Paint Retarder (item 87114).
