Tamiya 81353 Acryl XF-53 Neutral Grey Matt

Matt Paint

Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly and can be blended easily. Prior to curing, paint can be washed away with plain water.

When airbrushing make sure to use any of the following Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinners: X-20A Acrylic Thinner / Rozcieńczalnik do farb akrylowych, X-20A Acrylic Thinner / Rozcieńczalnik do farb akrylowych, X-20A Acrylic Thinner / Rozcieńczalnik do farb akrylowych or X-20A Acrylic Mini Thinner / Rozcieńczalnik do farb akrylowych. 

The "X" designated colors have a glossy finish while "XF" designated colors are flat finish. The paint can be thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner. The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Lacquer Thinner . Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish. For better paint brushing results use Tamiya Paint Retarder (Paint Retarder (Acrylic)) for a smoother brushstroke free finish.
