Compact Enamel for Precision Work

Tamiya XF-56 Metallic Grey arrives in a 10ml enamel pot designed for hobbyists who need a compact yet reliable paint. It provides a fine metallic sheen and durable finish on common modelling materials such as plastic and wood. Use it on miniatures, kits, and small craft projects where consistent coverage matters.

Brush and Airbrush Guidance

Best practice is to apply Tamiya enamels with a fine brush or via airbrush. For airbrushing, the recommended mix is two parts thinner to ten parts paint to achieve a smooth, even spray. Correct thinning helps avoid orange peel and improves adhesion.

Project Compatibility

Although not formulated specifically for RC bodywork, XF-56 is a versatile metallic grey that suits many modelling uses. It brings a neutral, modern metallic finish to detailed builds.

Very fast and efficient service with prompt emails at every stage. The items were very carefully packaged for mailing to Lamma Island. I'll certainly buy from RCJAZ.COM again.
Yes, Tamiya XF-56 can be used on wood. Ensure the surface is clean and sanded where necessary to get an even finish.
Use an appropriate brush cleaner or mineral spirits to remove enamel from brushes, then wash with soap and water to restore bristle condition.
Yes, building up colour with several thin coats is preferable to one heavy coat to maintain detail and avoid runs.
