2009年4月29日 · PS paints contain additives that make them resistant to some thinners, and cleanup would have to be done with acetone. You can possibly still find the PC paints which should work with the normal X-20A thinner. No, don't use water. Use isopropyl alcohol or Tamiya X-20A acrylic thinner or proper airbrush cleaning solution.
How-to: Brush painting with Tamiya X/XF acrylic paints
2014年10月29日 · Re blending, you can easily blend any paints in jars. I have built quite a few tanks and always make custom colours for them. In terms of thinning them, the goal for airbrushes is the texture of milk. Typically this is 30-50% Tamiya X/XF paint and then either Acryllic Thinner (or if using the slightly chalky XF paints try Tamiya Laquer Thinner).

2018年3月25日 · I painted this Nissan Silvia body using Tamiya Translucent paint. There was interest in my previous translucent paint job, so I decided to take pictures of each step to show how to do it. I used these colors: For each coat of paint, I hold the can about 6 - 8 inches away from the body and spray i...

2021年10月21日 · 1. Prime, I used to use Tamiya spray but now uses Mr Surfacer. This is even more important as RC cars are treated more harshly than static models. I used to use Tamiya spray primers but now due to logistics and cost, uses Mr Surfacer. 2. Sand between coats, I don't do that but good model maker does. This brings out the shine.
Tamiya X and XF acrylic paint, confused - Tamiyaclub.com
2023年9月3日 · Tamiya paints are excellent, one of the best on market. Unfortunately they work well only with airbrush. One more thing. Tamiya paints smell quite bad. Maybe it is not the worst smell in the world but you will not be happy. On the other hand, real acrylics ( Tamiya are not acrylics as far as I know) does not have any smell, which is biggest ...
PS & TS Paint colour comparisons - Tamiyaclub.com
2012年11月5日 · PS-22 is the darkest of the polycarb green shades. In TS series I think TS-9 or TS-43 are the closest. If you only needed to paint the wing mirrors to match then there are several brush paints in the acrylic paint X series that you could experiment with, perhaps having to add a …

2011年11月15日 · Tamiya paints are very good, and the flat colours work well with a brush straight out of the bottle. But for the camo on the FAV, you're best off using an airbrush or TS spray cans to do it. Airbrushing the acrylics will look just as good as the TS sprays.
Tamiya Spray Banned in Canada? - Tamiyaclub.com
2024年9月25日 · IIRC a lot of Tamiya paints (I think TS paints) became unavailable in the EU for a while for labelling issues. Tamiya reprinted the labels and stock returned again quick enough, but for a while it was hard to get some paints. If this is a similar problem then maybe Tamiya can resolve it with a Canada-specific label.
Mixing polycarbonate paints (PS) with normal sprays (TS)
2021年8月5日 · My wife wants to paint her Sand Scorcher metallic purple. Only problem is, Tamiya dont make a metallic purple in the TS series. There is however a metallic purple in the PS series. The other thought we had was using the TS series purple as a base and putting PS Lame Flake (glitter!) over the top ...

2019年11月18日 · Personally I like Tamiya paints - I find the car cans put it on quite heavy, which, with things at such a small scale, means some detail can be lost if you aren't careful. The Tamiya cans seems to give a nice light spray (especially if you warm the cans up first) which yes, means you have to give it a few more coats, but I'd rather add paint ...
